Looking inside jets: an introduction to jet substructure and boosted-object phenomenology

Understand

The study of the internal structure of hadronic jets has become in recent years a very active area of research in particle physics.

• Jet substructure techniques are increasingly used in experimental analyses by the LHC collaborations, both in the context of searching for new physics and for Standard Model measurements.
• On the theory side, the quest for a deeper understanding of jet substructure algorithms has contributed to a renewed interest in all-order calculations in QCD.
• This has resulted in new ideas about how to design better observables and how to provide a solid theoretical description for them.
