Abstract:

This study aimed to investigate the impact of the inclusive jet double differential cross-section data retrieved from the ATLAS at the large hadron collider(LHC), at the center-of-mass energy of $ \sqrt{s}=2.76 $ TeV, on CT18NNLO parton distribution functions(PDFs) by applying the error PDF updating method package(ePump). First, the inclusive jet double differential cross-sections were calculated with non-perturbative correction using the CT18NNLO PDFs. It was observed that the theoretical predictions concurred with the experimental data. Thereafter, the correlation $ \mathrm{c}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{s}\phi $ was established between theoretical predictions for the inclusive jet double differential cross-sections and the CT18NNLO gluon PDFs. Finally, the ePump was applied to update the CT18NNLO PDFs; the differences between these data and the original global fitting data were investigated. The CT18NNLO gluon PDFs and ePump updated gluon PDFs were compared at $ Q=100 $ GeV, and it was found that the ATLAS 2.76 TeV inclusive jet double differential cross-sections data could slightly constrain the CT18NNLO gluon PDFs at both small and large $ x $ regions.
