The properties of p-p scattering amplitudes at the TeV-scale and above are studied, so as to check their asymptotic behavior and determine the rate at which they approach the bounds implied by s and t channel unitarity saturation. I shall examine the available cross sections at exceedingly high energies,as well as the corresponding behavior of the coupled models aiming to reproduce the values...

We review several recent results of the CMS experiment in the field of B hadron productions, spectroscopy and decays. A measurement of the &Lambdab lifetime using the decay &Lambdab to J/&psi Lambda is presented. The dataset was recorded with the CMS detector using a trigger selecting unbiased J/&psi decaying to dimuons. We performed a flavour-untagged measurement of the...

We present recent measurements of jet cross sections and their properties, using proton-proton collision data collected with the CMS detector. Measurements of jet production rates in association with W, Z, or photons are also presented. Jet measurements at the LHC can be used to confront predictions of perturbative QCD, are sensitive to new physics signals, and can be used to constrain PDFs.
