    Experimental uncertainties related to hadronic object reconstruction can limit the precision of physics analyses at the LHC, and so improvements in performance have the potential to broadly increase the impact of results. Recent refinements to reconstruction and calibration procedures for ATLAS jets and MET result in reduced uncertainties, improved pileup stability and other performance gains....

    In this contributions we will present new results that relate the top quark mass parameter in Monte Carlo generators with a field-theoretical mass scheme. In our study, Pythia8 predictions for the groomed top jet mass distribution in pp -> ttbar production are compared with first-principle calculations at NNLL accuracy. The formal accuracy is improved (from NLL to NNLL) with respect to...

    Precision measurements of the top quark mass at hadron colliders have been notoriously difficult. Energy-energy correlators (EECs) provide clean access to angular correlations in the hadronic energy flux, but their application to the precision mass measurements is less direct since they measure a dimensionless angular scale.

    Inspired by the use of standard candles in cosmology, I will show...

    Detailed measurements of Higgs boson properties can be performed using highly boosted objects, where the detector signatures of two or more decay products overlap. The talk will present several ATLAS analyses targeting these topologies, using collision data collected during Run 2 of the LHC. The talk will present studies of the properties of Higgs boson production at high transverse momentum,...

    The large production cross section of top-quark pairs at the LHC allows for detailed studies of the substructure of jets arising from light quarks, b-quarks, and gluons. In this talk, recent measurements of the jet substructure in the decay products of top quarks performed by the ATLAS experiment are presented, using the reconstructed charged particles in the decay of W bosons and the...

    Unfolded data can be used to measure the top mass, but also to search for unexpected kinematic correlations in top decay events. We show how generative unfolding can be used for both tasks and how the results benefit from the unbinned, high-dimensional unfolding. Our method includes an unbiasing step with respect to the top mass used during training data and promises significant advantages...

    In the past decade, there have been significant developments in jet measurements. Initially, the emphasis was primarily on measuring the jet production cross-sections in vacuum and their modification in the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) medium. The current investigations have shifted towards probing jet substructure, aiming to understand the intricate interplay of the perturbative and the...

    Measuring jet substructure in heavy-ion collisions provides an opportunity to study detailed aspects of the dynamics of jet quenching in the hot and dense QCD medium created in these collisions. This talk presents a set of complementary ATLAS measurements of jet suppression and substructure performed using various jet definitions, constituents, and grooming techniques in Pb+Pb collisions....

    search for medium-induced jet transverse momentum broadening is performed with isolated photon-tagged jet events in proton-proton (pp) and lead-lead (PbPb) collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy $5.02\TeV$. The difference between jet axes as determined via energy-weight and winner-take-all clustering schemes, also known as the decorrelation of jet axes and denoted $\Delta j$, is...

    This talk presents the first measurements of the groomed jet radius $R_{\mathrm{g}}$ and the jet girth $g$ in events with an isolated photon recoiling against a jet in lead-lead (PbPb) and proton-proton (pp) collisions at the LHC at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV. The observables $R_{\mathrm{g}}$ and $g$ provide a quantitative measure of how narrow or broad a jet is. The...

    The modifications imprinted on jets due to their interaction with QGP are assessed by comparing samples of jets produced in AA collisions and pp collisions. The standard procedure for doing so, however, ignores the effect of bin migration, i.e, it compares specific observables for jet populations at the same reconstructed jet transverse momentum ($p_T$). Since jet $p_T$ is itself modified by...

    It is known that perturbative simulations of high-multiplicity jets can vary quite substantially from data collected at high-energy colliders like the LHC. It is therefore important to understand what is driving the discrepancy and if there are other possible tools to simulate these events without relying on individual particle simulation. We propose that another observable to manage...

    Energy correlators, which as a jet-substructure observable measure correlations between energy detectors (calorimeters) in a collider experiment, have received significant attention over the last few years in both the theory/phenomenology and experimental communities. This success has prompted investigations into how energy correlators can be further used, such as in the study of both hot and...

    Abstract: The current best-performing networks in many ML for particle physics tasks are either custom-built Lorentz-equivariant architectures or more generic large transformer models. A major unanswered question is whether the high performance of equivariant architectures is in fact due to their equivariance. We design a study to isolate and investigate effects of equivariance on network...

    We propose a new approach to learning powerful jet representations directly from unlabelled data. The method employs a Particle Transformer to predict masked particle representations in a latent space, overcoming the need for discrete tokenization and enabling it to extend to arbitrary input features beyond the Lorentz four-vectors. We demonstrate the effectiveness and flexibility of this...

    How can one fully harness the power of physics encoded in relativistic $N$-body phase space? Topologically, phase space is isomorphic to the product space of a simplex and a hypersphere and can be equipped with explicit coordinates and a Riemannian metric. This natural structure that scaffolds the space on which all collider physics events live opens up new directions for machine learning...
