Building a better boosted top tagger

Distinguishing hadronically decaying boosted top quarks from massive QCD jets is an important challenge at the Large Hadron Collider. In this paper we use the power-counting method to study jet substructure observables designed for top tagging, and gain insight into their performance. We introduce a...
