Flavor tagging TeV jets for physics beyond the Standard Model

We present a new scheme for tagging boosted heavy flavor jets called “µx tagging.” At the LHC, the primary method to tag b-jets relies on tracking their charged constituents. However, when highly boosted, track-based b-tags lose efficiency, and the probability to mistag light jets rises dramatically...
