Description
Jets are ubiquitous at the LHC and no matter how you try to avoid them, they’ll come back with a vengeance. Look at some of the most fundamental properties of the universe, like it’s vacuum stability, and you end up looking at the jet energy scale uncertainties, driven by fundamental aspects of parton shower modelling. We’ll start from the Top and finish with a jet experimentalist's laundry list. Smörgåsbord of jet trivia provided and Oracles of Pythia welcome!
