z g distribution in a nutshell General pQCD picture High p T regime Low p T regime Conclusion Introduction I will focus mainly on the z g distribution because this allows for comparisons with results from pQCD. How to understand from first principles these measurements ? CMS Collab. PAS HIN-16-006

z g distribution in a nutshell General pQCD picture High p T regime Low p T regime Conclusion z g distribution in a nutshell Jets are first defined with anti- k T . All final particles in one jet are reclustered with Cambridge/Aachen to impose physical angular ordering. A SoftDrop declustering is used the find the first two subjets satisfying z g ≥ z cut . The angle of branching is called θ g . Larkoski, Marzani, Soyez, Thaler, 2014 One can also impose a minimal angle between the two subjets θ g ≥ θ cut . z 1 ≤ z cut z 2 ≤ z cut p T, 1 θ g ≥ θ cut z g = min ( p T, 1 ,p T, 2 ) ≥ z cut p T, 1 + p T, 2 p T, 2 p T = p T, 1 + p T, 2

z g distribution in a nutshell General pQCD picture High p T regime Low p T regime Conclusion High p T regime: incoherent energy loss In the high pT regime, the only leading medium effect is the incoherent energy loss of the two subjets via medium-induced radiation. Incoherent energy loss because we chose θ g ≥ θ cut ≥ θ c . Mehtar-Tani, Salgado, Tywoniuk, 2010-1 ; Casalderrey-Solana, Iancu, 2011 Let us call E ( p T , 1 , R 1 ) the energy loss by a subjet. p T, 1 = zp T − E ( zp T , ∼ θ g / 2) θ g ≥ θ cut ≥ θ c p T , 2 = (1 − z ) p T − E ((1 − z ) p T , ∼ θ g / 2) p T
