Recent progress in full jet reconstruction in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC makes it a promising tool for the quantitative study of the QCD at high energy density. Measurements in d+Au collisions are important to disentangle initial state nuclear effects from medium-induced k(T) broadening and jet quenching. Furthermore, comparison to measurements in p+p gives access to cold nuclear matter effects. Inclusive jet p(T) spectra and di-jet correlations (k(T)) in 200 GeV p+p and d+Au collisions from the 2007-2008 RHIC run are presented.
