In heavy-ion collisions, an abundant production of high-energy QCD jets allows to study how these multiparticle sprays are modified as they pass through the quark-gluon plasma. In order to shed new light on this process, we compute the…
The ability to measure detailed aspects of the substructure of high-energy jets traversing the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) has provided a new window into its internal dynamics. However, drawing robust conclusions from traditional jet…
We consider the energy flow into gaps between hard jets. It was previously believed that the accuracy of resummed predictions for such observables can be improved by employing the $k_t$ clustering procedure to define the gap energy in terms…

By defining dijet rapidity gap events according to interjet energy flow, we treat the photoproduction cross section of two high transverse momentum jets with a large intermediate rapidity region as a factorizable quantity in perturbative…
This thesis is concerned with the theory and the phenomenology of rapidity gap processes. We perform perturbative calculations of energy flow observables in jet-gap-jet processes, which consist of resummed primary emission calculations…
We revisit the impact of the jet algorithm on predictions of energy flow into gaps between hard jets, defined using the kt clustering procedure. The resulting prediction has two distinct components: a primary emission piece that is related…
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…
After a brief introduction to the physics of soft gluons in QCD we present a surprising prediction. Dijet production in hadron-hadron collisions provides the paradigm, i.e. h_1 +h_2 \to jj+X. In particular, we look at the case where there…
We consider interjet observables in hard QCD processes given by the energy flow E_out in a region away from all hard jets. Here the QCD radiation is depleted (E_out << Q), and therefore these observables provide ideal means to study…
We motivate the study of ``Minijets'' (that is jets soft with respect to the hard scattering, but hard with respect to \Lambda_QCD) as a means to study the underlying QCD colour flow in events. We discuss, with the aid of a simplistic…
In the past years significant progress has been made toward achieving a quantitative understanding of jets and their substructure in high-energy proton-proton collisions from first principles in QCD. Precise measurements have become…
When rapidity gaps in high-$p_T$ dijet events are identified by energy flow in the central region, they may be calculated from factorized cross sections in perturbative QCD, up to corrections that behave as inverse powers of the central…
The use of energy flow is investigated as a diagnostic tool for determining the color SU(3) representation of new resonances. It is found that the pattern of soft gluon radiation into a rapidity gap depends on color flow in the hard…
Jets provide us with ideal probes of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) produced in heavy-ion collisions, since its dynamics at its different scales is imprinted into the multi-scale substructure of the final state jets. We present a new approach…
We identify a class of perturbatively computable measures of interjet energy flow, which can be associated with well-defined color flow at short distances. As an illustration, we calculate correlations between event shapes and the flow of…
Recent work in inter-jet energy flow has identified a class of leading logarithms previously not considered in the literature. These so-called non-global logarithms have been shown to have significant numerical impact on gaps-between-jets…
High Energy Jets provides an all-order description of wide-angle QCD emissions, resumming the leading-logarithmic contributions in the high-energy limit. In this contribution, we briefly summarise the approach and its implementation in a…
We observe that at the Large Hadron Collider, using forward + central detectors, it becomes possible for the first time to carry out calorimetric measurements of the transverse energy flow due to "minijets" accompanying production of two…
