Measurement of triple-differential dijet cross sections with the CMS detector at 8 TeV and PDF constraints

Description

The first measurement of triple-differential dijet cross sections at the LHC is presented using 19.71 fb-1 of data collected with the CMS detector in proton-proton collisions at 8 TeV. The unfolded cross sections agree with perturbative QCD calculations at NLO accuracy. Constraints on the PDFs are derived. Compared to a fit with HERA DIS data alone, the uncertainties of the PDFs, especially those of the gluon PDF, are significantly reduced and a harder gluon PDF is obtained.
