Abstract

This paper explores the use of “top tagging” to identify boosted hadronic top quarks at the LHC. The authors examine the advantages of this approach, which avoids reconstructing the individual decay products of the top quark by instead using a jet algorithm to reconstruct the entire top decay.

This paper explores the use of “top tagging” to identify boosted hadronic top quarks at the LHC. The authors examine the advantages of this approach, which avoids reconstructing the individual decay products of the top quark by instead using a jet algorithm to reconstruct the entire top decay. The paper then explores different tagging algorithms, their critical QCD aspects, and currently available experimental results. It also explores the use of top tagging to identify other boosted particles such as W and Z bosons, as well as potential applications of the technique for identifying new physics. https://inspirehep.net/literature/108
