Jets in the forward region at the LHC

TL;DR

This paper explores jet production at forward rapidities at the LHC, emphasizing the importance of QCD corrections in both transverse momentum and rapidity, and applying high-energy factorization techniques to incorporate these effects.

Contribution

It introduces the use of high-energy factorization methods to account for multiple QCD corrections in forward jet production at the LHC.

Findings

QCD logarithmic corrections are significant in forward jet production.

High-energy factorization effectively incorporates corrections in both transverse momentum and rapidity.

Results improve theoretical predictions for jet production at the LHC.

Abstract

We discuss jet production at forward rapidities at the LHC. In this region QCD logarithmic corrections in the hard transverse momentum and in the large rapidity interval may both be quantitatively significant. We describe results of using high-energy factorization techniques, which allow one to take into account both kinds of corrections to higher orders in QCD.
