We review various aspects of jet physics in the context of hadron colliders. We start by discussing the definitions and properties of jets and recent development in this area. We then consider the question of factorization for processes…

Jet modification in heavy-ion collisions provides microscopic access to the properties of the quark-gluon plasma. However, conventional approaches based on traditional global observables, such as \(R_{AA}\), capture limited information…
We discuss the theory of jet events in high-energy photon-proton interactions using a model which gives a good description of the data available on total inelastic $\gamma p$ cross sections up to $\sqrt{s}$=210 GeV. We show how to calculate…
We confront a hybrid strong/weak coupling model for jet quenching to data from LHC heavy ion collisions. The model combines the perturbative QCD physics at high momentum transfer and the strongly coupled dynamics of non- abelian gauge…

High Energy Jets (HEJ) is a new framework for approximating the all-order perturbative corrections to multi-jet processes, with a focus on the hard, wide-angle QCD emissions, which underpins the perturbative description of hard jets. In…
This work presents the first theoretical investigation of the medium modification of jet broadening as an event-shape observable in multijet final states due to jet quenching in high-energy nuclear collisions. The partonic spectrum of $pp$…

The study of the structure of strongly interacting dense matter via hard jets is reviewed. High momentum partons produced in hard collisions produce a shower of gluons prior to undergoing the non-perturbative process of hadronization. In…

A broad range of new experimental data and theoretical results on the properties of hadronic matter under extreme conditions have been reported at Quark Matter 2012 conference. At this conference the scientific community was presented with…
Jets produced in nucleus-nucleus collisions at the LHC are expected to be strongly modified due to the interaction of the parton shower with the dense QCD matter. Here, we point out that jet quenching can leave signatures not only in the…
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…
Using QCD kinetic theory, we study momentum broadening of jets using the full broadening probability (elastic collision kernel) $C(\mathbf{q_\perp})$ extracted during simulations of the nonequilibrium initial stages in heavy-ion collisions.…
We present the first application of a recently-developed effective theory of jet propagation in matter SCETG to inclusive hadron suppression in nucleus-nucleus collisions at the LHC. SCETG-based splitting kernels allow us to go beyond the…

Hard probes created through large momentum transfers are used to study the properties of QCD matter created in heavy-ion collisions, by comparing the measurements to those in p+p collisions. Jets, and the "quenching" or suppression of jets…
Jet quenching, the modification of jets by the quark-gluon plasma in heavy-ion collisions, provides a sensitive probe of the properties of the medium. A jet-by-jet discrimination study between proton-proton and lead-lead jets using energy…
Jet quenching in heavy ion collisions and in particular the sub-structure of quenched jets are promising tools for investigating the microscopic processes underlying jet quenching and the background medium's response to energy and momentum…
