The quark-gluon plasma (QGP) can be explored in relativistic heavy ion collisions by the jet quenching signature, i.e. by the energy loss of a high energy quark or gluon traversing the plasma. We introduce a novel QCD evolution formalism in…

The structure of hadronic jets depends not only on the dynamics of QCD but also on the details of the jet finding algorithm and the physical process in which the jet is produced. To study these effects in more detail we calculate the jet…
Di-jet producion is studied in collisions of quasi-real photons at e+e- centre- of-mass energies sqrt(s)ee from 189 to 209 GeV at LEP. The data were collected with the OPAL detector. Jets are reconstructed using an inclusive k_t clustering…

Study of methods of resolved top quarks kinematic reconstruction in the $t\bar{t} \rightarrow \ell+$jets channel is presented at the particle level as well as the fast-simulation detector level. Previous and current pseudo-top quark…
Three jet events arising from decays of the $Z^0$ boson, collected by the DELPHI detector at LEP, were used to measure differences in the properties of quark and gluon jet fragmentation. Gluon jets were anti-tagged in $b\bar{b}g$ events, by…
Being able to distinguish light-quark jets from gluon jets on an event-by-event basis could significantly enhance the reach for many new physics searches at the Large Hadron Collider. Through an exhaustive search of existing and novel jet…
We propose an extension of the existing experimental strategy for measuring branching fractions of top quark decays, targeting specifically $t\to j_q W$, where $j_q$ is a light quark jet. The improved strategy uses orthogonal $b$- and…

We present a complete calculation of the photon +~1 jet rate in $e^+e^-$ annihilation up to ${\cal O}(\alpha \alpha_{s})$. Although formally of next-to-leading order in perturbation theory, this calculation contains several ingredients…
We calculate the mean number of subjets in quark and gluon jets in the final state of e^+e^- annihilation. Since `quark' and `gluon' jets are scheme-dependent objects, we stress the importance of using the same definition as in experimental…
We propose a simple scheme to start a parton-shower evolution description from a given jet configuration in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation events. This allows a convenient combination of the full angular information content of matrix elements with…
