    • Jet Charge at the LHC 

      Krohn, David; Schwartz, Matthew D; Lin, Tongyan; Waalewijn, Wouter J. (American Physical Society (APS), 2013)
      Knowing the charge of the parton initiating a light-quark jet could be extremely useful both for testing aspects of the standard model and for characterizing potential beyond-the-standard-model signals. We show that despite ...

    • Jet sampling: improving event reconstruction through multiple interpretations 

      Kahawala, Dilani; Krohn, David; Schwartz, Matthew D (Springer Nature, 2013)
      The classification of events involving jets as signal-like or background-like can depend strongly on the jet algorithm used and its parameters. This is partly due to the fact that standard jet algorithms yield a single ...

    • (Light) Stop Signs 

      Han, Zhenyu; Katz, Andrey; Krohn, David; Reece, Matthew (Springer Verlag, 2012)
      Stop squarks with a mass just above the top’s and which decay to a nearly massless LSP are difficult to probe because of the large SM di-top background. Here we discuss search strategies which could be used to set more ...

    • Nondeterministic Approach to Tree-Based Jet Substructure 

      Ellis, Stephen D.; Hornig, Andrew; Roy, Tuhin S.; Krohn, David; Schwartz, Matthew D (American Physical Society (APS), 2012)
      Jet substructure is typically studied using clustering algorithms, such as kT , which arrange the jets’ constituents into trees. Instead of considering a single tree per jet, we propose that multiple trees should be ...
