I make some remarks about using jets to search for new physics at hadron colliders.

In the last couple of years important progresses in the simulation of the QCD high pT processes have been carried out. In this talk, a review of the tools and techniques historically used to simulate QCD cross sections will be presented from a user point of view. The benchmark process selected for the discussion is the inclusive jet cross section. The talk will focus on the uncertainties of...

We will discuss the new dominant bounds that can be derived on the coefficient of the effective operator generated by tree-level graviton exchange in large extra dimensions from pp -> jj data at LHC: M_T > 2.1TeV (ATLAS after 3.1/pb of integrated luminosity), M_T > 3.4 TeV (CMS after 36/pb). We clarify the role of on-shell graviton exchange and compare the full graviton amplitude to data,...
