Measurement of the differential dijet mass cross section with the CMS detector in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s)= 8TeV
Summary:
Measurements of dijet production cross section are presented. Data from LHC
proton-proton collisions at 8 TeV corresponding to 9.2fb-1 of integrated
luminosity were collected with the CMS detector. Jets are reconstructed up to a
rapidity 2.5 and dijet mass 5.5 TeV, using the anti- kT algorithm with distance
parameter R=0.7. The measured cross sections are corrected for detector effects
and compared to perturbative QCD predictions at next-to-leading-order order,
using five sets of parton distribution functions.
