Maximum performance of strange-jet tagging at hadron colliders

Understand

The maximum achievable performance of strange-jet tagging at hadron colliders and the loss in performance in different detector designs is estimated based on simulated truth jets from strange-quark and down-quark hadronisation.

• Both jet types are classified with a recurrent neural network using long short-term memory units, at first using all available truth particles and then applying selections to study the impacts of ideal tracking detectors, Cherenkov detectors, and calorimeters.
• Additionally, a manual reconstruction of strange hadron decays such as $K_S\rightarrow \pi^+ \pi^-$ from charged tracks is considered.
