Description

Recent phenomenological developments in the field of jet substructure have enabled new approaches to utilizing the internal energy density distributions of jets in physics analysis in ATLAS. In this poster, two applications of such substructure observables are presented. First, the performance of new jet substructure observables as inputs to multivariate techniques designed to identify jets formed by top quarks and electroweak bosons with large transverse momentum is explored. Second, measurements of such observables, which also have potential to improve tunes of Monte Carlo generators are highlighted.
