| + | We have made a special e-group for anyone who wants to join these discussions: [[https://simba3.web.cern.ch/simba3/SelfSubscription.aspx?groupName=houches-2019-topics-jets|houches-2019-topics-jets]]. There is also a slack channel: [[https://join.slack.com/t/jetsatleshouches2017/shared_invite/enQtNjQ5MTQxODc5MTExLWU2OGE3NzUyZWI0YWJlOWYzOTM1Yjc2YTNhYjQzOTJmZjNlYTQ4OTVmMTA2OTIyNWQ2N2Y4NWVlOTZlYjkwZTU|Invite Link]]. In terms of topics, this is what we have brainstormed so far: | ||
| + | |||
| + | * **Where is quark/gluon discrimination actually useful?** One complication is that many other analysis selections are already purifying the selection (e.g. requiring two forward jets with large mjj already suppresses gluon jets for VBF/VBS). Examples: | ||
| + | * PDFs | ||
| + | * VBF | ||
| + | * X->gg | ||
| + | * Susy cascades | ||
| + | * ISR tagging | ||
| + | * W tagging | ||
| + | * top tagging | ||
| + | |||
| + | * **Extraction of the strong coupling constant** This was a main focus of the last Les Houches and we plan on at least having a discussion about this one of the days. As part of this, we may want to do a short study of the difference between inclusive jets (F. Ringer et al.) and dijets. | ||
| + | |||
| + | * **Tuning with jet substructure** One motivation for performing measurements of jet structure is to improve MC tunes. It would be good to understand which observables are actually sensitive to which parameters, taking note of what has already been measured. IRC safe observables may not be so useful for tuning. Another sub-topic: can we understand the ATLAS jet pull angle measurement from the point of view of parameter variations? (quite significant tension between Pythia and data). | ||
| + | |||
| + | * **Can grooming reduce non-perturbative effects?** Idea in part suggested by Bogdan Malaescu (see also 1705.07135). | ||
| + | |||
| + | * **Tagging** There was a big effort to understand light 2-prong tagging last Les Houches. We could revisit this topic for Higgs and/or BSM (top is already quite well-covered with 1902.09914). | ||
| + | |||
| + | * **Various ML4Jets topics** | ||
