Hacked Rivet Fast Jet library

This is a hacked version of the Fast-Jet library shipped with Rivet. It has no meaning without having Rivet installed.

Introduction

The BOOST 2012 working group has identified the following substructure observables:

  • Trimming/mass-drop/pruning/filtering
  • Template method
  • N-subjettiness
  • Jet charge
  • Angular correlation function
  • Diploarity

Currently, Jet Charge and 2-subjettiness have been implemented.

Jet Charge

Jet Charge is defined as

$$
Q_{\kappa}^i = \frac{1}{(P_T^{jet})^\kappa}\sum_{j\in jet}Q_j(p_T^j)^\kappa
$$

Put in words, its the sum of the charge of the constituent particles weighted by the particle's transverse momentum.

Jet Dipolarity

Jet dipolarity is a p_T weighted sum over the radii of sub*jets. It is typically only defined for jets with two subjets.

Installing

Copy the folders include/ and src/ to /path/to/rivet/build/rivet/

cd /path/to/rivet/build/
make 
make install

Now profit from substructure and measure your favorite Higgs coupling.

NB install_hacked_fastjets.sh will do the install/build process, but it is very dumb so read it before you use it... no guarentees if it nukes your rivet build.
