Book excerpt: The cross section for inclusive jet production in high-energy pp collisions is well described by pQCD in the collinear factorization framework, which, together with its high rate and clear signal, makes it a key observable to study the proton structure. For pp collisions at RHIC at a center-of-mass energy of √s = 200 GeV, the STAR detector provides jet measurements at 0.07 ≲ xT ≡ 2pT:jet/√s ≲ 0.5. At these kinematics, the direct scattering on gluons inside the colliding protons contributes at least half of the total jet production cross section. Measurements of the inclusive jet cross section at RHIC, together with the past Deep Inelastic Scattering measurements, can provide improved constraints on the gluon Parton Distribution Function at high x.
