Detailed Description

Class that helps perform boosted top tagging using the "Johns Hopkins" method from arXiv:0806.0848 (Kaplan, Rehermann, Schwartz and Tweedie)

The tagger proceeds as follows:

Input conditions

Example

A JHTopTagger can be used as follows:

    double delta_p = 0.10; // subjets must carry at least this fraction of the original jet's p_t
    double delta_r = 0.19; // subjets must be separated by at least this Manhattan distance
    double cos_theta_W_max = 0.7; // the maximal allowed value of the W helicity angle
    JHTopTagger top_tagger(delta_p, delta_r, cos_theta_W_max);
    // indicate the acceptable range of top, W masses (default: no limits)
    top_tagger.set_top_selector(SelectorMassRange(150,200));
    top_tagger.set_W_selector  (SelectorMassRange( 65, 95));
    // now try and tag a jet
    PseudoJet top_candidate = top_tagger(jet);  // jet should come from a Cambridge/Aachen clustering
    if (top_candidate != 0) { // successful tagging
      double top_mass = top_candidate.m();
      double W_mass   = top_candidate.structure_of<JHTopTagger>().W().m();
    }

The full set of information available from the structure_of<JHTopTagger>() call is

The structure of the top_candidate can also be accessed through its pieces() function:

The W itself has two pieces (corresponding to W1, W2).

The existence of the first two of the structural calls (W(), non_W()) and the fact that the top is made of two pieces (W, non_W) are features that should be common to all taggers derived from TopTaggerBase.

See also 13 - boosted top tagging for a full usage example.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

fastjet::JHTopTagger::JHTopTagger ( const double  delta_p = 0.10,
const double  delta_r = 0.19,
double  cos_theta_W_max = 0.7,
double  mW = 80.4 
) [inline]

default ctor The parameters are the following:

Parameters:
delta_pfractional pt cut imposed on the subjets (computed as a fraction of the original jet)
delta_rminimal distance between 2 subjets (computed as |y1-y2|+|phi1-phi2|)
cos_theta_W_maxthe maximal value for the polarisation angle of the W
mWthe W mass

The default values of all these parameters are taken from arXiv:0806:0848
