Description: We present a new method to expose the dead-cone effect at colliders using iterative declustering techniques. Iterative declustering allows one to unwind the jet clustering and to access the subjets or branches at different depths of the jet tree. Our method consists of declustering the heavy flavor-tagged jet using the Cambridge-Achen algorithm following the branch containing the heavy flavor at each step and registering the kinematics of the complementary untagged prong. The kinematics of the complementary untagged prong fill a Lund map representing the gluon radiation off the heavy-flavor quark at each step of the vacuum shower. Using Pythia8 Monte Carlo, we show that a simple cut on the Lund plane introduced by ln(kT)>0 suppresses hadronization effects and the angular separation between the jet prongs becomes very sensitive to flavor effects. A clear suppression for heavy-flavor jets relative to inclusive jets in the region of splitting angles delimited by the relation θ

  Data: We present a new method to expose the dead-cone effect at colliders using iterative declustering techniques. Iterative declustering allows one to unwind the jet clustering and to access the subjets or branches at different depths of the jet tree. Our method consists of declustering the heavy flavor-tagged jet using the Cambridge-Achen algorithm following the branch containing the heavy flavor at each step and registering the kinematics of the complementary untagged prong. The kinematics of the complementary untagged prong fill a Lund map representing the gluon radiation off the heavy-flavor quark at each step of the vacuum shower. Using Pythia8 Monte Carlo, we show that a simple cut on the Lund plane introduced by ln(kT)>0 suppresses hadronization effects and the angular separation between the jet prongs becomes very sensitive to flavor effects. A clear suppression for heavy-flavor jets relative to inclusive jets in the region of splitting angles delimited by the relation θ<mQ/E is observed, where mQ is the mass of the heavy quark and E is the energy of the radiator or splitting prong.
