The major new features of FastJet 3.0 relative to the 2.4.x series are:
- Filtering, trimming, pruning and a few boosted object taggers as
part of a new native "Transformers" framework for post-clustering
manipulation of jets.
- New background estimation and subtraction interface, with
JetMedianBackgroundEstimator, GridMedianBackgroundEstimator and
Subtractor.
- Enhancement of the PseudoJet class so that jets are now aware of their
internal structure (e.g. one can use jet.constituents()).
- Selectors, which allow easy communication of cuts across different
functions.
- The option to associate arbitrary user information with a PseudoJet.
- Improved doxygen and
examples.
- Many smaller changes, including aids for easier memory management,
two new plugins, enhanced fortran wrappers and elimination of the
R<π/2 restriction on native jet algorithms.
