+    * mu+mu- -> spin0 -> g g  take Higgs
+    * for tests of universality:  mu+mu- -> spin0 -> q qbar

   * Universality/process dependence of conclusions?
     * Related to whether the discrimination power comes from the core or the periphery of jet.

+===== Notes for Jesse for Preparing Summary Talk =====
+  * Quark is more of an adjective than a noun.
+  * Pseudo-quark?  (That language doesn't go over very well.)
+==== What is a Quark Jet? ====
+(From ill-defined to well-defined)
+  * A quark parton
+  * A Born-level quark parton
+  * The initiating quark parton in a final state shower
+  * An eikonal line with baryon number 1/3 and carrying triplet color charge
+  * A quark operator that appears in a hard matrix element in the context of a factorization theorem.
+  * A parton-level jet object that has been tagged as a quark using a soft-safe flavored jet algorithm (automatically collinear safe if you sum constituent flavors).
+  * A phase space region (as defined by an unambiguous hadronic fiducial cross section measurement) that yields an enriched sample of quarks (as interpreted by some suitable, though fundamentally ambiguous, criterion).
+(Sometimes people think we care about the top of the list while we are really focused entirely on the bottom.)
