description | The internal structure of hadrons at low momentum fractions is known only poorly.
However, it is important, for example, to understand background processes at hadron
colliders. The parton density rises fast with decreasing values of x. This growth is
dominated by gluons and at some critical scale the gluon density will enter a state
of saturation. The production of jets is sensitive to the partonic structure of hadrons.
We report on recent results on forward and multiple hard jet production in pp collisions at CMS. Correlations between central and forward jet production are studied
as well as additional jet radiation in events with dijets at large rapidity separation.
Also the forward and very forward directed energy flow in pp and PbPb collisions
are presented. |
