Description
In this talk we present new measurements of inclusive and semi-inclusive jet production in pp collisions, using the high-statistics data sample of Run 3 collected by ALICE. The inclusive jet sample is composed of charged-particle jets, whilst the semi-inclusive sample has the additional constraint that the jets are recoiling from a high-pT charged hadron trigger. For the semi-inclusive sample we also report the prospects for the measurement of the acoplanarity observable, Δφ, defined as the azimuthal angle between the trigger and the recoiling jet, as well as the jet-axis difference ΔR. These measurements can probe higher-order corrections to pQCD calculations, as well as constrain Monte-Carlo models describing the evolution of high momentum objects. An outlook to performing these measurements in Pb--Pb collisions in Run 3 is also presented, detailing the response of the upgraded ALICE detector to jet physics in heavy-ion collisions.
