Measurements of isolated-photon plus jets cross sections are presented as func- tions of the photon and jet transverse momenta. The cross sections as functions of the azimuthal angle between the photon and the jets, the azimuthal angle between the jets, the photon–jet invariant mass and the scattering angle in the photon–jet centre-of-mass system are presented. The pattern of QCD radiation around the photon and the leading jet is investigated by measuring jet production in an annular region cen- tred on each object; enhancements are observed around the leading jet with respect to the photon in the directions towards the beams. The experimental measurements are compared to several different theoretical calculations, and overall a good description of the data is found. © 2017 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier B.V.

Introduction The production of prompt photons in association with jets in proton–proton collisions, pp → γ + jets + X, provides a testing ground for perturbative QCD (pQCD) with a hard colour- less probe less affected by hadronisation effects than jet production. The measurements of the angular correlations between the photon and the jets can be used to probe the dynamics of the hard-scattering process. Since the dominant production mechanism in pp collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) proceeds via the qg → qγ process, measurements of prompt-photon plus jet production are useful in constraining the gluon density in the proton [1,2].
