In this paper, a Monte-Carlo tool was introduced to simulate the rescattering and energy loss of hard partons in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions, and the model was applied to analysis of the jet quenching pattern at RHIC.
Abstract
The method to simulate the rescattering and energy loss of hard partons in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions has been developed. The model is a fast Monte-Carlo tool introduced to modify a standard PYTHIA jet event. The full heavy ion event is obtained as a superposition of a soft hydro-type state and hard multi-jets. The model is applied to analysis of the jet quenching pattern at RHIC.

Pileup subtraction using jet areas

TL;DR: In this paper, a technique based on jet areas is proposed to provide jet-by-jet corrections for pileup and underlying-event effects, which can be used with any jet algorithm that can be sensibly defined.
