JET RECONSTRUCTION Jet = collimated spray of high energy hadrons Interplay between theory and experiment:
THEORY: “calculate” the real jet EXPERIMENT: measure the jet

Why reconstruct jets?• Full knowledge of jet properties: jet shape, fragmentation
functions, energy, …
IDEA: going from tracks and EMC towers to jets Jet Finding
• Theoretical and experimental issues in Jet Finding
• Jet Finding Algorithms Cone algorithms
KT algorithms
![Page 6: Studies of the jet fragmentation in p+p collisions in STAR Elena Bruna Yale University STAR Collaboration meeting, June 16-21 2008.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/56649f0d5503460f94c210be/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
THEORETICAL ISSUES Required THEORETICAL features in a
jet finding algorithm:
Collinear safety: the algorithm should be insensitive to any collinear radiation.
Example A: if the energy is split among soft particles, and each tower is under a threshold, the jet is lost

OK BAD: 2 jets are merged in one
A
Example B: if the energy of a parton is split in two towers, and the algorithm starts with the particles with highest E, a different jet may be found
B
Infrared safety: the algorithm should not be sensitive to soft radiation
![Page 7: Studies of the jet fragmentation in p+p collisions in STAR Elena Bruna Yale University STAR Collaboration meeting, June 16-21 2008.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/56649f0d5503460f94c210be/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
EXPERIMENTAL ISSUES
Required EXPERIMENTAL features in a jet finding algorithm: Detector independence: the performance of the
jet algorithm should not be dependent on detector segmentation, energy resolution, …
Stability with luminosity: jet finding should not be strongly affected by multiple hard scatterings at high beam luminosities.
Fast Efficient: the jet algorithm should find as many
physically interesting jets as possible

CONE ALGORITHM
A ‘seed’ defines the approximate jet direction seed = track with E>Ethreshold
Tracks which are within a radius of R<Rcone are taken (R=√(ΔΦ2+Δη2))
The centroid of the cone is given by summing the momenta of the particles inside the cone
The centroid becomes the new seed : procedure iterated until the seed position is stable

PART I: searching midpoint Search for missing jets using the midpoint of all the pairs of found
jets as seed
PART II: splitting/merging This stage starts once stable cones have been found (see previous
slide) IDEA: disentangle jets which share common towers in the
calorimeter

KT JET ALGORITHM Start with a list of preclusters, i.e. 4-vectors of tracks, and
calorimeter towers. Each precluster is defined by: E, p, y. Calculate:
For each precluster i: For each pair (i,j) of preclusters: (D is a parameter of the jet algorithm)
Find the minimum of all the di and dij and label it dmin
If dmin is a dij, remove preclusters i and j from the list and replace them with a new merged precluster
If dmin is a di, the precluster i is not “mergeable” and it can be added to the list of jets.
Repeat the procedure until the list of preclusters is empty, i.e. all the jets have been found
