Description

Recent results on the double parton scattering studies and
measurement of the underlying event activity, performed using
proton-proton collisions data collected using the CMS detector
are presented. Comparisons to previous results at different
center of mass energies are also reported. Latest tests of
double parton scattering, underlying event tunes, minimum bias,
and diffraction are made by comparing the CMS Run I and Run II
data with the latest theoretical predictions. Studies used to
derive and test the new CMS underlying event tune, obtained
through the jet kinematic and global event variables in top
quark-antiquark events, are also described.
