Description

We discuss the jet shape variable pull and in particular, we present a first-principle prediction for the pull angle, which can help to probe the colour flow between jets. While the pull angle is not infra-red and collinear safe, it is Sudakov safe and therefore it can be calculated using all-order techniques, which share similarities to standard transverse-momentum resummation. We compare our results with Monte Carlo simulations and with the data collected by the ATLAS experiment.
