Description
The measurement of the inclusive jet cross section from pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of s = 7 TeV using data collected by the CMS experiment with an integrated luminosity of about 60 nb−1 and in the pT range of 18-700 GeV is presented. Several different jet reconstruction methods are investigated using an anti-kT clustering algorithm. Studies of the systematic uncertainties in transverse momentum for each reconstruction method are presented, and the measured cross sections are found to be in agreement with next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations, within the experimental and theoretical uncertainties.
