Description
This talk gives an overview of QCD measurements at high pT at the LHC and other colliders. Recent results on inclusive jet, dijet and multijet production measurements are presented together with results of alpha_S extraction and constraints on the PDFs of the proton. Precision measurements of vector bosons (V = W, Z or γ) in association with jets allow for stringent tests of perturbative QCD. The measurements are compared to next-to leading order calculations and event simulations that devise matrix element calculations interfaced with parton showers.
