ARCLUS—A new jet clustering algorithm inspired by the Colour Dipole Model

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

A new jet clustering algorithm-Arclus-is presented. The main difference between this and conventional algorithms is that while the latter in each step join two clusters into one,Arclus joins three clusters into two. The performance ofArclus in terms of the size of hadronization corrections is studied for some jet-reconstruction tasks ine + e − andep collisions, and is found to be as good as or, for some tasks inep collisions, better than conventional clustering algorithms.
