New particles beyond the Standard Model might be produced with a very high boost, for instance if they result from the decay of a heavier particle. If the former decay hadronically, then their signature is a single massive fat jet which is…
Mass measurements of objects that decay into hadronic jets, such as the top quark, are shown to be improved by using a variant of the $k_t$ jet algorithm in place of standard cone algorithms. The possibility and importance of better…
The separate study of quark and gluon jets is vital for the interpretation of multiple variables behaviour observed in both high-energy hadron and heavy-ion collisions in the present and future experiments. We propose a set of jet-energy…
The drag of a heavy quark and the jet quenching parameter are studied in the strongly coupled N=2* plasma using the AdS/CFT correspondence. Both increase in units of the spatial string tension as the theory departs from conformal…
Measurements in heavy-flavour azimuthal angular correlation provide insight into the production, propagation, and hadronization of heavy-flavour jets in ultra-relativistic hadronic and heavy-ion collisions. These measurements across…
A new heavy di-jet resonance could be discovered at the 14 TeV LHC. In this talk we present a strategy to reveal the nature of such a particle; in particular to discern whether it is a quark-antiquark (q qbar), quark-gluon (qg), or…
Heavy flavor hadrons, i.e. those containing charm and bottom quarks, will be abundantly produced at the LHC and are important probes of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). Of particular interest is the investigation of parton energy loss in the…
We compute the cross-section of the hadronic jets arising from the quark antiquark pair which are produced from a hard photons (of 4-momentum $q$) in the plasma, predominantly consisting of thermalised quarks and gluons. The quark antiquark…
Deep inelastic scattering on nuclei at the Electron-Ion Collider will open new opportunities to investigate the structure of matter. Heavy flavor-tagged jets are complementary probes of the partonic composition and transport coefficients of…
Machine learning techniques are used for treating jets as images to explore the performance of boosted top quark tagging. Tagging performances are studied in both hadronic and leptonic channels of top quark decay, employing a convolutional…
While "quark" and "gluon" jets are often treated as separate, well-defined objects in both theoretical and experimental contexts, no precise, practical, and hadron-level definition of jet flavor presently exists. To remedy this issue, we…
We compute top quark pair production in association with a bottom quark pair at the LHC within the five-flavour scheme, matched to a parton shower, employing the FxFx merging scheme for $t\bar{t}+\textrm{jets}$ production with up to 2 jets…
An overview of recent measurements of charm and beauty production in ep collisions at HERA is presented. Various techniques are used by the ZEUS and H1 collaborations to efficiently tag heavy quarks in events and different regions of phase…
In the first talk I discuss the usefulness of jet grooming for testing jet quenching mechanisms, and I present a calculation of soft-drop jet mass distribution in proton-proton and heavy ion collisions. In the second talk I discuss the…

Measurements of differential cross sections of top quark pair production in association with jets by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC are presented. The measurements are performed as functions of the top quark transverse momentum, the…
In differential measurements of the $t\bar{t}b\bar{b}$ process, observables related to the b jets not originating from top quark decays are of special interest to probe the multi-scale QCD nature of the $t\bar{t}b\bar{b}$ process, and the…
We reconsider the associated $Z$ boson and charm or beauty jet production at the LHC with paying special attention to the formation dynamics of heavy jets. Two different approaches are studied: first one, where heavy quarks are produced in…
