A measurement of the dijet production cross section is reported based on proton-proton collision data collected in 2016 at s = 13 Te V by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of up to 36.3 fb - 1 . Jets are reconstructed with the anti- k T algorithm for distance parameters of R = 0.4 and 0.8. Cross sections are measured double-differentially (2D) as a function of the largest absolute rapidity | y | max of the two jets with the highest transverse momenta p T and their invariant mass m 1 , 2 , and triple-differentially (3D) as a function of the rapidity separation y ∗ , the total boost y b , and either m 1 , 2 or the average p T of the two jets. The cross sections are unfolded to correct for detector effects and are compared with fixed-order calculations derived at next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics. The impact of the measurements on the parton distribution functions and the strong coupling constant at the mass of the Z boson is investigated, yielding a value of α S ( m Z ) = 0.1179 ± 0.0019 .
