Description
Modern QCD - Lecture 5
We will introduce and discuss in some detail the two main classes of
jets: cone type and sequential-recombination type. We will discuss
their basic properties, as well as more advanced concepts such as jet
substructure, jet filtering, ways of optimizing the jet radius, ways
of defining the areas of jets, and of establishing the quality measure
of the jet-algorithm in terms of discriminating power in specific
searches. Finally we will discuss applications for Higgs searches
involving boosted particles.
