Power Jets: a more global way to study jets

ORAL

Abstract

We introduce "power jets," a scheme that uses the fully correlated information of the QCD power spectrum to go beyond conventional, sequential jet-clustering algorithms. This affords us a kinematic reconstruction that can accurately probe the underlying hard physics of an event, even in the presence of high pile up, and subject to finite sampling.
