Hermes Le\'on Vargas (for the ALICE Collaboration)
TL;DR
This study evaluates jet observables for quark and gluon discrimination using Monte Carlo simulations and ALICE detector modeling, demonstrating robustness against experimental effects.
Contribution
It introduces and tests a jet observable method for quark-gluon discrimination, validated with full detector simulation at the LHC.
Findings
Method maintains performance after detector simulation
Jet observable effectively distinguishes quark and gluon jets
Experimental effects do not significantly impair discrimination
Abstract
A Monte Carlo study of two jet observables that can be used to obtain jet samples enhanced in quark or gluon content is presented. We compare the performance of one of these methods on pure Monte Carlo events with that after the transport of events through the full simulation of the ALICE experiment. It is shown that the performance of the method is not deteriorated by experimental effects like resolution and inefficiency.
