TLDR
In this article, the authors measured the jet energy resolution using data recorded with the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35 pb(-1).
Abstract: 
The measurement of the jet energy resolution is presented using data recorded with the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV. The sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35 pb(-1). Jets are reconstructed from energy deposits measured by the calorimeters and calibrated using different jet calibration schemes. The jet energy resolution is measured with two different in situ methods which are found to be in agreement within uncertainties. The total uncertainties on these measurements range from 20 % to 10 % for jets within vertical bar y vertical bar < 2.8 and with transverse momenta increasing from 30 GeV to 500 GeV. Overall, the Monte Carlo simulation of the jet energy resolution agrees with the data within 10 %.

Topological cell clustering in the ATLAS calorimeters and its performance in LHC Run 1

Georges Aad, +2891 more
- 24 Jul 2017 - 
TL;DR: Topological cell clustering is established as a well-performing calorimeter signal definition for jet and missing transverse momentum reconstruction in ATLAS and is exploited to apply a local energy calibration and corrections depending on the nature of the cluster.

The anti-$k_t$ jet clustering algorithm

Matteo Cacciari, +2 more
- 16 Apr 2008 - 
TL;DR: The anti-k-t algorithm as mentioned in this paper behaves like an idealised cone algorithm, in that jets with only soft fragmentation are conical, active and passive areas are equal, the area anomalous dimensions are zero, the non-global logarithms are those of a rigid boundary and the Milan factor is universal.

New generation of parton distributions with uncertainties from global QCD analysis

Jon Pumplin, +5 more
- 09 Aug 2002 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a new generation of parton distribution functions with increased precision and quantitative estimates of uncertainties is presented, using a recently developed eigenvector-basis approach to the hessian method, which provides the means to quickly estimate the uncertainties of a wide range of physical processes at these high-energy hadron colliders, based on current knowledge of the parton distributions.
