Measurements of Triple-Differential Cross Sections for Inclusive Isolated-Photon+jet Events in P P Collisions at √s=8tev

Abstract

Measurements are presented of the triple-differential cross section for inclusive isolated-photon+jet events in p p collisions at s=8 TeV as a function of photon transverse momentum (pTγ), photon pseudorapidity (ηγ), and jet pseudorapidity (ηjet). The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.7fb-1 that probe a broad range of the available phase space, for | ηγ| < 1.44 and 1.57 < | ηγ| < 2.50 , | ηjet| < 2.5 , 40<pTγ<1000GeV, and jet transverse momentum, pTjet, > 25GeV. The measurements are compared to next-to-leading order perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculations, which reproduce the data within uncertainties. © 2019, CERN for the benefit of the CMS collaboration.
