Abstract: A measurement of the double differential inclusive jet cross section as a function of the jet transverse momentum $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ and the absolute jet rapidity $|y|$ is presented. Data from LHC proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}= $ 13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector with an integrated luminosity of 36.3 fb$^{-1}$ (33.5 fb$^{-1}$) are analysed. Jets are reconstructed using the anti-$k_{\mathrm{T}}$ clustering algorithm with size parameters of 0.4 (0.7) in a phase space region covering jet $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ from 97 GeV up to 3.1 TeV and jet absolute rapidity up to $|y|=$ 2.0. The measured jet cross section is corrected for detector effects and compared with the predictions from perturbative QCD. These measurements, together with the multi-differential cross sections of $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$ production, are used in a comprehensive QCD analysis to extract the parton distribution functions, the strong coupling, and the top quark mass, simultaneously. Using an effective field theory-improved QCD, also the Wilson coefficient of a 4-quark contact interactions model is determined. | ||

Figure 1:
Probability matrix, estimated with a simulation sample based on PYTHIA 8 and including the simulation of the CMS detector, for jets clustered using the anti-$ {k_{\mathrm {T}}}$ algorithm with $R = $ 0.7. The $x$ axis ($y$ axis) corresponds to jets at particle (detector) level. The global 5$\times $5 structure corresponds to the bins of rapidity $y$ of the jets, indicated by the labels in the uppermost row and rightmost column; the $x$ and $y$ axes of each cell correspond to the transverse momentum ${p_{\mathrm {T}}}$ of the jets. The range of the $z$ axis covers a range from 10$^{-6}$ to 1 and the rows are normalised to unity, indicating the probability for a particle-level jet generated with values of the transverse momentum $ {p_{\mathrm {T}}} ^\text {gen}$ and rapidity $y^\text {gen}$ to be reconstructed at detector-level with values of the transverse momentum $ {p_{\mathrm {T}}} ^\text {rec}$ and rapidity $y^\text {rec}$. Migrations outside of the phase space are not included; migrations across rapidity bins only occur among adjacent rapidity bins. The dashed lines indicate the diagonal bins in each rapidity cell. |

Figure 2:
Correlation matrix at particle level, for jets clustered using the anti-$ {k_{\mathrm {T}}}$ algorithm with $R = $ 0.7. It contains contributions from the data recorded in 2016 and from the limited statistics from the PYTHIA 8 sample including the simulation of the CMS detector and used to perform the unfolding. The global 4$\times $4 structure corresponds to the bins of rapidity $y$ of the jets, indicated by the labels in the uppermost row and rightmost column; the $x$ and $y$ axes of each cell correspond to the transverse momentum ${p_{\mathrm {T}}}$ of the jets. The range of the $z$ axis covers a range from -1 to 1 and indicates correlations in blue shades and anti-correlations in red shades, except for values between $-$0.1 and 0.1. Correlations across rapidity bins reach significant values mostly at the edges of the transverse momentum range. |

Figure 3:
Relative uncertainties in the double differential cross section as a function of jet transverse momentum ($x$ axis) and rapidity (cells), for jets clustered using the anti-$ {k_{\mathrm {T}}}$ algorithm with $R = $ 0.7. The systematic uncertainties are shown in different, non-cumulative colour bands: the red bands correspond to JES uncertainties, the yellow bands to the JER uncertainties, and the blue bands to all other sources, including the luminosity uncertainty, the model uncertainty, uncertainties of the migrations in and out of the phase space, and uncertainties for the various inefficiencies and backgrounds. The vertical error bars include the statistical uncertainties from the data and from the PYTHIA 8 simulation sample used for the unfolding, as well as the binwise systematic uncertainties, all summed in quadrature. The total uncertainty, shown in green, includes all systematic and statistical uncertainties summed in quadrature. |

Summary |
In this note, a measurement of the double differential inclusive jet cross section is presented as a function of the jet transverse momentum ${p_{\mathrm{T}}}$ and rapidity $|y|$ for jets reconstructed using the anti-${k_{\mathrm{T}}}$ clustering algorithm with a size parameter of $0.4$ and $0.7$. The phase space covers jet ${p_{\mathrm{T}}}$ from 97 GeV up to 3.1 TeV and jet rapidity up to $|y|=$ 2.0. The measured jet cross section is compared to the predictions of perturbative QCD at next-to-leading order, next-to-next-to-leading order and next-to-leading order with next-to-leading logarithm resummation correction, using various sets of parton distribution functions. Strong sensitivity of the measurement to the parton distributions is observed. In order to investigate the impact of the measurements on the parton distribution functions and the strong coupling, a QCD analysis is performed, where the jet cross sections are used together with the HERA DIS measurements and with the CMS measurement of the triple-differential top quark-antiquark production cross sections. In addition to the parton distributions in the proton, the value of the strong coupling, and the mass of the top quark are also extracted. The resulting significant improvement of the accuracy of the parton distributions is demonstrated for the CT14 PDF set in a profiling study and in a full QCD fit. The resulting values of the strong coupling constant agree with the world average and the previous CMS results using the jet measurements. The obtained value of the top quark mass agrees well with the result of the previous CMS analysis using the triple-differential cross sections of the top quark pair production. Although the inclusive jet production is not directly sensitive to the value of the top quark mass, the resulting value profits from the additional constraint on the gluon distribution and on the strong coupling constant provided by the jet measurements. Furthermore, an alternative QCD analysis is performed with the same data, where the standard model Lagrangian is modified by the introduction of effective terms related to quark contact interactions. In the analysis, the Wilson coefficients for the contact interactions are extracted for different values of the scale of the new interaction. This approach has the advantage of an indirect search for new physics with the simultaneous extraction of parameters of the standard model, thereby reducing possible bias in the BSM interpretation of the data. The results are compatible with the standard model and the previous results obtained at the LHC using the jet production. |
