Classification of jets with deep learning has gained significant attention in recent times. However, the performance of deep neural networks is often achieved at the cost of interpretability. Here we propose an interpretable network trained…
High energy quarks and gluons play essential roles in the tomographic study of relativistic heavy-ion collisions and of the quark-gluon plasma. They interact with the traversed dense matter through elastic and inelastic collisions, and lose…
Two types of penetrating probes, direct photon and QCD jets, are investigated in the background of a small and rapidly expanding droplet of quark-gluon plasma. The additional thermal electromagnetic radiation results in a $\sim$50\%…

Measurements are presented of the jet invariant mass and substructure in proton-proton collisions at sqrt{s} = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector using an integrated luminosity of 37 pb-1. These results exercise the tools for distinguishing the…
We present a QCD analysis of the cumulative out-of-event-plane momentum distribution in DIS process with emission of high p_t jets. We derive the all-order resummed result to next-to-leading accuracy and estimate the leading power…
Parton propagation in dense nuclear matter results in elastic, inelastic and coherent multiple soft scattering with the in-medium color charges. Such scattering leads to calculable modifications of the hadron production cross section that…

A new algorithm is presented to discriminate reconstructed hadronic decays of tau leptons ($\tau_\mathrm{h}$) that originate from genuine tau leptons in the CMS detector against $\tau_\mathrm{h}$ candidates that originate from quark or…
The normalised differential top quark-antiquark production cross section is measured as a function of the jet multiplicity in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the LHC with the CMS detector. The measurement is…
Gluon jets are identified in e+e- hadronic annihilation events by tagging two quark jets in the same hemisphere of an event. The gluon jet is defined inclusively as all the particles in the opposite hemisphere. Gluon jets defined in this…
We develop an Effective Field Theory approach for jet observables in heavy-ion collisions, where the jet is treated as an open quantum system interacting with a hot and dense QCD medium. Within this framework, we derive a novel…
Recent analyses by the CDF and D0 Collaborations of jet data produced in proton-antiproton collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider are presented. These include new studies of the inclusive jet production cross section, a measurement of…
Jet measurements in heavy ion collisions at low jet momentum can provide constraints on the properties of the quark gluon plasma but are overwhelmed by a significant, fluctuating background. We build upon our previous work which…
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…
A modification of the internal structure of jets is expected due to the production of a dense QCD medium, the Quark Gluon Plasma, in heavy-ion collisions. We discuss some aspects of jet reconstruction in p+p and A+A collisions and emphasize…
We introduce a new jet observable {\em zest} defined on exclusively constructed jets and study its potential to discriminate jets originated from Standard Model heavy particles like $W,~Z$ bosons and top quark from gluon initiated jets.…
The sources of $W + n$-jet events in hadron collisions are higher-order QCD processes, but also multiple-parton interactions. A subprocess producing a $W + k$-jet final state, followed by one producing $l$ jets in the same nucleon-nucleon…
Within the colour dipole picture for deep inelastic scattering at small Bjorken $x$, we study the production of a pair of relatively hard jets via coherent diffraction. By "relatively hard" we mean that the transverse momenta of the two…
