Description

We present a study of the density of emissions in the Lund Jet Plane for hadronic decays of boosted top quarks. We consider the case where all top quark decay products are reconstructed in a single large jet. The three-prong decay of the top quark offers a rich substructure where the two quarks from the W decay are not color-connected to the b quark, and all three quarks originate from the decay of a heavy resonance. We study the radiation pattern between these quarks and show how to disentangle effects from the parton shower and the hadronisation process.
