It then reclusters the jet and for every clustering step, involving objects a and b, it checks whether ab > R prune and min(p ta,p tb ) <z cut p t,(a+b),wherez cut is a second parameter of the tagger. If so, then the softer of the a and b is discarded. Otherwise a and b are recombined as usual.

97 What do we know currently? Boost 21 proceedings: The [Monte Carlo] findings discussed above indicate that while [pruning, trimming and filtering] have qualitatively similar effects, there are important differences. For our choice of parameters, pruning acts most aggressively on the signal and background followed by trimming and filtering. At the time: No clear picture of why the taggers might be similar or different No clear picture of how the parameter choices affect the taggers Gavin Salam (CERN) Jets and jet substructure (4) TASI, June
