Description

Track based techniques for tagging bottom-quark jets lose efficiency in the highly boosted regime. Many interesting channels require tagging of at least one b-jet ($W^{\prime}\rightarrow tb$, $Z^{\prime}\rightarrow t\bar{t}/b\bar{b}$, etc). We present a new method to tag b-jets with $p_{T}=\mathcal{O}\left(\mathrm{TeV}\right)$.
