Measurements of inclusive jet spectra in pp and central Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV

This article reports measurements of the pT-differential inclusive jet cross section in pp collisions at √s=5.02TeV and the pT-differential inclusive jet yield in Pb-Pb 0–10% central collisions at √sNN=5.02TeV. Jets were reconstructed at midrapidity with the ALICE tracking detectors and electromagnetic calorimeter using the anti-kT algorithm. For pp collisions, we report jet cross sections for jet resolution parameters R=0.1–0.6 over the range 20<pT,jet<140 GeV/c, as well as the jet cross-section ratios of different R and comparisons to two next-to-leading-order (NLO)–based theoretical predictions. For Pb-Pb collisions, we report the R=0.2 and R=0.4 jet spectra for 40<pT,jet<140 GeV/c and 60<pT,jet
