Pileup and Infrared Radiation Annihilation (PIRANHA): A Paradigm for Continuous Jet Grooming
Samuel Alipour-Fard, Patrick T. Komiske, Eric M. Metodiev +1
Jet grooming is an important strategy for analyzing relativistic particle collisions in the presence of contaminating radiation. Most jet grooming techniques introduce hard cutoffs…
Disentangling Quarks and Gluons with CMS Open Data
Patrick T. Komiske, Serhii Kryhin, Jesse Thaler
We study quark and gluon jets separately using public collider data from the CMS experiment. Our analysis is based on 2.3/fb of proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV, collected at the…
Analyzing N-point Energy Correlators Inside Jets with CMS Open Data
Patrick T. Komiske, Ian Moult, Jesse Thaler +1
Jets of hadrons produced at high-energy colliders provide experimental access to the dynamics of asymptotically free quarks and gluons and their confinement into hadrons. In this p…
Preserving New Physics while Simultaneously Unfolding All Observables
Patrick Komiske, W. Patrick McCormack, Benjamin Nachman
Direct searches for new particles at colliders have traditionally been factorized into model proposals by theorists and model testing by experimentalists. With the recent advent of…
The LHC Olympics 2020: A Community Challenge for Anomaly Detection in High Energy Physics
Gregor Kasieczka, Benjamin Nachman, David Shih +44
A new paradigm for data-driven, model-agnostic new physics searches at colliders is emerging, and aims to leverage recent breakthroughs in anomaly detection and machine learning. I…
The Hidden Geometry of Particle Collisions
Patrick T. Komiske, Eric M. Metodiev, Jesse Thaler
We establish that many fundamental concepts and techniques in quantum field theory and collider physics can be naturally understood and unified through a simple new geometric langu…
