WIDG Seminar: Mark Gonzalez, Yale, "Detectorology and its Phenomenological Applications"
Well-defined operators which are capable of describing measurements made at future null infinity in collider experiments are naturally of phenomenological interest, but they are also of great formal interest. Here we discuss the properties of these so called asymptotic detector operators, including both their formal construction in terms of light-ray operators in a conformal field theory, as well as their utility in jet substructure phenomenology.
