Harnessing the QCD power spectrum for high energy physics

We introduce a new framework to encode information in the QCD power spectrum on an event-by-event basis from which jets and their substructure can be extracted. Our new “power jets” scheme requires no jet radius parameter, and allows pileup to be extracted in situ. The result is an accurate kinemati...
