Hard Jets and Higgs Bosons

Jeppe Andersen (Durham University)


Abstract

'High Energy Jets' provides an approximation to the all-order perturbative calculation of observables in processes with multiple hard jets. I will discuss first the basics, and recent comparisons to data from the LHC and the Tevatron. Secondly, I will discuss the possiblities for measuring properties of the Higgs boson couplings provided by multi-jet observables, and the role of High Energy Jets in such analyses.
