SCET for jet physics in the vacuum and the medium
Ivan Vitev
In this plenary talk I discuss soft-collinear effective theory (SCET) as a framework for precision QCD phenomenology. Emphasis is placed on jet and heavy flavor observables accessi…
Jet and heavy flavor production in heavy-ion collisions
Zhong-Bo Kang, Felix Ringer, Ivan Vitev
We review recent progress in the theoretical description of hard probes in heavy-ion collisions within the framework of Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET). Firstly, we consider…
Effective field theory approach to open heavy flavor production in heavy-ion collisions
Zhong-Bo Kang, Felix Ringer, Ivan Vitev
We develop a version of Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) which includes finite quark masses, as well as Glauber gluons that describe the interaction of collinear partons with…
Semi-inclusive jet cross sections within SCET
Zhong-Bo Kang, Felix Ringer, Ivan Vitev
We review the definition of semi-inclusive jet functions within Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) and their application to inclusive jet cross sections. As an example, we cons…
Heavy flavor production in heavy-ion collisions from soft collinear effective theory
Zhong-Bo Kang, Felix Ringer, Ivan Vitev
We review a new approach to open heavy flavor production in heavy ion collisions based on Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET). We include both finite heavy quark masses in the S…
Probing the hardest branching of jets in heavy ion collisions
Yang-Ting Chien, Ivan Vitev
We present the first calculation of the momentum sharing and angular separation distributions between the leading subjets inside a reconstructed jet in heavy ion collisions. These…
