Measurement of the underlying event activity in pp collisions at root s=0 9 and 7 TeV with the novel jet-area/median approach

The first measurement of the charged component of the underlying event using the novel "jet-area/median" approach is presented for proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 0.9 and 7 TeV. The data were recorded in 2010 with the CMS experiment at the LHC. A new observable, sens...
