Abstract: We report on measurements of the dijet pseudorapidity distributions in pp and pPb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}= $ 5.02 TeV with the CMS detector. These measurements are sensitive to nuclear modifications of parton distribution functions (PDF). Recent theoretical studies based on NLO calculations show that the constraining power of pPb data on nuclear PDF fits can be improved by the knowledge of the corresponding measurement in pp collisions. Moreover, measurements of dijet average transverse momentum provide a good handle on $Q^2$. In this physics analysis summary, the dijet pseudorapidity spectra are studied in different dijet average transverse momentum intervals. These measurements can provide constraints on the nuclear PDF over a wide phase space of $x$ and $Q^2$. | ||

Summary |
Measurements of the dijet pseudorapidity in different dijet average $p_\mathrm{T}$ intervals in pp and pPb collisions at nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV are reported. The measured dijet pseudorapidity distributions are compared to NLO calculations using nuclear and proton parton distribution functions. Significant modifications of the dijet pseudorapidity are observed in pPb data compared to pp references. Those measurements are compared with NLO calculation with EPS09, DSSZ and nCTEQ15 which provide strong constrain to the nPDF. |
