Quantum algorithms for jet clustering

Identifying jets formed in high-energy particle collisions requires solving optimization problems over potentially large numbers of final-state particles. In this work, we consider the possibility of using quantum computers to speed up jet clustering algorithms. Focusing on the case of electron-posi...
