Abstract
The standard model of particle physics is a remarkably successful theory. It has been tested by countless measurements and has withstood all attempts at its falsification. Jet substructure techniques offer new possibilities to test this exceptional theory and search for unknown effects.

Notes
- 1.
Jet substructure has also become a field of study in heavy ion collisions, which are not discussed in this book.
- 2.
While some aspects of LHC physics may not have direct connections to jet substructure techniques, the advancements in this field result in new developments of reconstruction algorithms, influencing all stages of data analyses.
- 3.
Conferences in this series are dedicated to the physics of jet substructure, and are called International Workshops on Boosted Object Phenomenology, Reconstruction and Searches in HEP. They are organised annually, where the first one was held in 2009 at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory at Menlo Park (USA).
