TO: JETS, OUR WINDOW ON PARTONS AT THE LHC
SESZIONE DI TORINO
Jets, collimated bunches of hadrons that result from the fragmentation of quarks and gluons, will be key observables at LHC. This talk introduces the issues that are relevant in hadron-collider jet-physics and reviews recent developments. These include both technical breakthroughs, finally enabling hadron-collider jet-finding to be brought up to the standards set out in the 1990 Snowmass accord, and progress in understanding the physics of jets, which serves as groundwork for optimising the practical effectiveness of jet-finding at LHC.
