Jet production at the Tevatron
We present several results on high P{sub T} jet production and compare them to the most recent theoretical predictions using the latest parton distribution functions. The dijet invariant mass distribution, triple differential cross section, and dijet angular distribution measurements exhibit very good agreement with the theoretical predictions. The latter agreement obviates the need to invoke compositeness models. At {radical}s = 630 GeV, the inclusive jet cross section lies 15-20% below the theoretical predictions for both experiments. At {radical}s = 1800 GeV, the D0 inclusive jet cross section is in agreement with the theoretical predictions over the entire jet E{sub T} range, the CDF collaboration observes an excess in the cross section for E{sub T} above 200 GeV.
