 The study will be undertaken with both fixed order (NLO and NNLO) and ME+PS programs. Results will be quoted both at the parton (parton shower) level and at the hadron level (for ME+PS). ​ The same PDF will be used, and the same core scale (as much as possible) will also be used. A Rivet routine will be provided based on CMS measurements at 13 TeV for R=0.4 and 0.7. It will be supplemented with jet sizes of 0.3, 0.6, and 1.0.  The study will be undertaken with both fixed order (NLO and NNLO) and ME+PS programs.

 Following the quark/gluon meeting on Saturday morning, we would like to add to the Rivet routine variables measuring the jet mass, the jet width and the Les Houches angularity for each kinematic bin and each R value. Jesse will provide the exact code. These variables, of course, are not measured by CMS, but such a comprehensive study should prove useful for multiple reasons. ​ Following the quark/gluon meeting on Saturday morning, we would like to add to the Rivet routine variables measuring the jet mass, the jet width and the Les Houches angularity for each kinematic bin and each R value.

-This study can also be used as a testbed for the impact of scale choices on the inclusive jet cross section calculation. In the inclusive cross section, both in data and in theory, each jet contributes to its respective pT and y bin in the histograms. For fixed order calculations,​ it has been traditional for the matrix element to be evaluated with the scale of the jet pT being considered, i.e. pTjet. If there are 4 jets in the event (for a NNLO calculation),​ then there are 4 entries corresponding to each event, with each entry being calculated with a different scale. An alternative is to use as a scale for all entries the maximum jet pT in the event (pTmax).

 using either the individual jet pT values, or the maximum pT of any jet in the event. It is easier to adjust the core scale in ME+PS programs than the scale for the 3rd and 4th jet, so an exact correspondence to the fixed order test may not be possible, but we can try to be as close as possible. There is a matching coffee bet from Daniel Maitre on the resulting comparisons. ​ using either the individual jet pT values, or the maximum pT of any jet in the event.

 This study also serves as a good testbed for non-perturbative corrections for inclusive jet cross sections, as a function of R, since the ME+PS calculations will be carried out for both parton shower level and full hadron level. As the non-perturbative corrections seem to differ between CMS and ATLAS, the results may serve as a useful benchmarks. ​ This study also serves as a good testbed for non-perturbative corrections for inclusive jet cross sections, as a function of R, since the ME+PS calculations will be carried out for both parton shower level and full hadron level.
