JEWEL+PYTHIA simulated pp and PbPb collisions at 5020 GeV - Jet substructure variables

Samples of simulated jets generated using JEWEL+PYTHIA for both Unquenched (pp) and Quenched (PbPb) cases, with the former being generated using the vacuum executable, jewel-vac, and the later using the medium executable,  jewel-simple. For each case 320 000 events were produced with \(\sqrt{s}=5020\) GeV,  \(p_T \in [40, 250]\) GeV, \(|y|<2.5\) . For the Quenched case, the medium settings were set to \(\tau_i = 0.4\) fm/c, \(T_i = 440\) MeV,  \(T_c = 170\) MeV, and centrality \(0-10\%\).

Three Quenched samples are produced from the same JEWEL output eventfiles.

One without thermal recoils

One with thermal recoils but no background subtraction

One with thermal recoils and background subtraction via the event-level subtraction prescription found in Improved background subtraction and a fresh look at jet sub-structure in JEWEL
