Measurement of single-diffractive dijet production in proton-proton collisions at with the CMS and TOTEM experiments.

Measurements are presented of the single-diffractive dijet cross section and the diffractive cross section as a function of the proton fractional momentum loss and the four-momentum transfer squared . Both processes and , i.e.

Studies of Charm Quark Diffusion inside Jets Using Pb-Pb and pp Collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV.

The first study of charm quark diffusion with respect to the jet axis in heavy ion collisions is presented. The measurement is performed using jets with p_{T}^{jet}>60  GeV/c and D^{0} mesons with p_{T}^{D}>4  GeV/c in lead-lead (Pb-Pb) and proton-proton (pp) collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02  TeV, recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC.

Extraction and validation of a new set of CMS pythia8 tunes from underlying-event measurements.

New sets of CMS underlying-event parameters ("tunes") are presented for the pythia8 event generator. These tunes use the NNPDF3.1 parton distribution functions (PDFs) at leading (LO), next-to-leading (NLO), or next-to-next-to-leading (NNLO) orders in perturbative quantum chromodynamics, and the strong coupling evolution at LO or NLO.

Measurement of the average very forward energy as a function of the track multiplicity at central pseudorapidities in proton-proton collisions at .

The average total energy as well as its hadronic and electromagnetic components are measured with the CMS detector at pseudorapidities in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy . The results are presented as a function of the charged particle multiplicity in the region . This measurement is sensitive to correlations induced by the underlying event structure over a very wide pseudorapidity region.
