Recent analyses by the CDF and D0 Collaborations of jet data produced in p{bar p} collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider are presented. These include new studies of the inclusive jet production cross section, a measurement of the strong coupling constant, the first measurement of subjet multiplicity of quark and gluon jets, examination of ratios of multijet cross sections and their implications for choice of renormalization scale, and a study of charged jet evolution and energy flow in the underlying event. The results are compared to theoretical predictions.

This book reviews the latest experimental results on jet physics from proton-proton collisons at the LHC. Jets allow to determine the strong coupling constant over a wide range of energies up the highest ones possible so far, and to constrain the gluon parton distribution of the proton, both of which are important uncertainties on theory predictions in general and for the Higgs boson in particular.A novel approach in this book is to categorize the examined quantities according to the types of absolute, ratio, or shape measurements and to explain in detail the advantages and differences. Including numerous illustrations and tables the physics message and impact of each observable is clearly elaborated.

The strong coupling constant alpha_S is measured in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV using 38 pb -1 of data recorded by the ATLAS detector. An inclusive jet production ratio distribution is used to reduce parton distribution functions dependence and measure the coupling strength at energy scales between 100 GeV and 1.5 TeV. The value of the strong coupling constant alpha_S(MZ) is measured to be 0.111 +0.016_-0.012, in agreement with similar measurements performed at hadron colliders and the world average value. Results are also consistent with the running of the coupling as predicted by Quantum Chromodynamics, tested for the first time at energy scales greater than 209 GeV.

The D0 experiment has accumulated data for a study of inclusive W production corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 14.3 [plus-minus] 1.7 pb[sup [minus]1] during the 1992--1993 Fermilab Tevatron collider run. The total number of W [yields] e + [nu] candidates is 9770. The ratio of the number of W + 1 jet events to that of W + 0 jet events has been measured as a function of jet minimum E[sub T]. Using this ratio the strong coupling constant, [alpha][sub s] at Q[sup 2] = M[sub W][sup 2] is measured to be [alpha][sub s](M[sub W][sup 2]) = 0.124 [plus-minus] 0.005(stat) [plus-minus] 0.006(MC) [plus-minus] 0.008(theory)[sub [minus]0.022][sup +0.026](sys) or ([sub [minus]0.025][sup +0.028] combined) with a jet minimum E[sub T] of 25 GeV. A quantitative test of perturbative QCD has been made by comparing the experimentally measured ratio with the theoretical predictions. The theoretical predictions of the ratio in both the leading order and next-to-leading order are in good agreement with the measured ratio.
