Multiparton Interactions and Double Parton Scatterings in CMS

Abstract

Multiparton interactions are introduced in order to explain a wide range of phenomena in p-p collisions. We present the most recent CMS measurements sensitive to multiparton interactions and hard double parton scattering at 7 TeV. In particular, the W+dijet channel and a scenario with four light jets in the final state are described.
