Precision jet substructure from boosted event shapes.
Jet substructure has emerged as a critical tool for LHC searches, but studies so far have relied heavily on shower Monte Carlo simulations, which formally approximate QCD at the leading-log level. We demonstrate that systematic higher-order QCD computations of jet substructure can be carried out by boosting global event shapes by a large momentum Q and accounting for effects due to finite jet s...
متن کاملNondeterministic approach to tree-based jet substructure.
Jet substructure is typically studied using clustering algorithms, such as k(T), which arrange the jets' constituents into trees. Instead of considering a single tree per jet, we propose that multiple trees should be considered, weighted by an appropriate metric. Then each jet in each event produces a distribution for an observable, rather than a single value. Advantages of this approach includ...
متن کاملJet observables without jet algorithms
We introduce a new class of event shapes to characterize the jet-like structure of an event. Like traditional event shapes, our observables are infrared/collinear safe and involve a sum over all hadrons in an event, but like a jet clustering algorithm, they incorporate a jet radius parameter and a transverse momentum cut. Three of the ubiquitous jet-based observables — jet multiplicity, summed ...
متن کاملLight Higgs Searches at the Lhc Using Jet Substructure
One of the major goals of the LHC is to discover the Higgs boson, which is the only particle of the Standard Model (SM) that has not been seen yet at colliders. Even if we cannot predict its mass, SM precision electroweak fits seem to favour a low-mass Higgs,2 and LEP data excluded a mass below 114 GeV.3 That’s why we are going to focus on the search for a light Higgs boson at the LHC, assuming...
متن کاملJet propulsion without inertia
A body immersed in a highly viscous fluid can locomote by drawing in and expelling fluid through pores at its surface. We consider this mechanism of jet propulsion without inertia in the case of spheroidal bodies and derive both the swimming velocity and the hydrodynamic efficiency. Elementary examples are presented and exact axisymmetric solutions for spherical, prolate spheroidal, and oblate ...
