Description
LHCb, while purpose built for b-physics, also functions as a general purpose forward detector, covering the pseudo-rapidity range 2.0 to 5.0. A wide variety of forward production measurements, used to constrain the proton PDFs, have been performed using the datasets collected in Runs 1 and 2 of the LHC. These include measurements of jet production which will be presented, highlighting the scope and sensitivity of the LHCb physics programme.
