Measuring collinear W emissions inside jets

Abstract

Single and multiple emission of electroweak gauge bosons and in particular of W bosons is discussed in the parton shower language. Algorithms and observables for the reconstruction of both leptonically and hadronically decaying W bosons inside light quark jets are compared, and they are applied to a study of how emission rates of W bosons in light-jet events at the LHC could be measured.
