Table 1.

Description of the bin-to-bin uncertainty correlation in the measurement of the inclusive jet cross-section at \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$\sqrt {s}=2.76~\mbox{TeV}$\end{document}. Each number corresponds to a nuisance parameter for which the corresponding uncertainty is fully correlated in the p T of the jet. Bins with the same nuisance parameter are treated as fully correlated, while bins with different nuisance parameters are uncorrelated. Numbers are assigned to be the same as in the previous publication [25]. The sources labelled by u i are sources uncorrelated in p T and y of the jet. The correlation with the previous cross-section measurement at \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$\sqrt {s}=7~\mbox{TeV}$\end{document} [25] is indicated in the last column, where full correlation is indicated by a Y and no correlation by a N. The description of the JES uncertainty sources can be found in Refs. [73, 74]. JES14 is a source due to the pile-up correction and is not considered in this measurement. The sources JES6 and JES15 were merged together in the previous measurement and the sum of the two uncertainties added in quadrature is fully correlated with the JES6 in the previous measurement, indicated by the symbol “*” in the table. The nuisance parameter label 31 is skipped in order to be able to keep the same numbers for corresponding nuisance parameters in the two jet cross-section measurements. The values for the nuisance parameters are given in Tables 445
