Description

A description of the transverse momentum spectrum of single inclusive forward
jets produced at the LHC, at the center-of-mass energies of 7 and 13 TeV, using the high
energy factorization (HEF) framework will be presented. Subsequently, a study of double inclusive forward jet production and, in particular, calculation of contributions to azimuthal angle distributions coming from double parton scattering will be shown. Our results for double inclusive jet production are compared to those obtained with the Pythia Monte Carlo generator. This comparison confirms that the HEF resummation acts like an initial state parton shower. It also points towards the need to include final state radiation effects in the HEF formalism.
