A practical seedless infrared-safe cone jet algorithm

Abstract: This writeup highlights the infrared unsafety of the 'midpoint' cone jet-algorithm and provides a brief overview of why this is a serious issue. It then shows how one can build a safe (seedless) cone algorithm and discusses the potential impact on measurements.Two broad classes of jet algorithm are in widespread use at modern colliders: sequential recombination type algorithms, such as k t 1 and Cambridge/Aachen, 2 and cone-type ones. 3 The a Talk presented at the XLII Rencontres de Moriond, QCD and Hadronic I… Show more

“…The Time Projection Chamber (TPC) is used to detect the charged particles [8], while the barrel electromagnetic calorimeter, BEMC, is used for neutral particles. Three jet finders are employed from the fast-jet package [9]: k t , anti-k t and SIS. We select recoil jets with respect to the triggered jets to measure fragmentation functions.…”

“…Track-jets are defined using the SISCone algorithm [22] as implemented in the FastJet package [23] with a clustering radius R = (∆φ) 2 + (∆η) 2 = 0.5. Charged particles reconstructed in the tracker with p T > 0.5 GeV/c and |η| < 2.5 are used to define the track-jet; this η range is wider than that used for the UE analysis (|η| < 2) in order to avoid a kinematic bias.…”

“…The Tevatron data in the plots have been obtained using the infrared-unsafe JETCLU jet algorithm [19]. We cannot use this algorithm in our NLO analysis, so we use the SISCONE [20] algorithm instead.…”
