Description

Fully reconstructed jets have become a sophisticated and widely-used tool through which to probe the properties of the quark-gluon plasma created in nucleus-nucleus collisions at RHIC and the LHC. In this talk, I will give an experimental overview of some of the the latest developments in these measurements, including recent results from the LHC Run 2 Pb+Pb data-taking on high-statistics photon-jet correlations, heavy flavor-tagged jet production, and modification of jet substructure.
