1 Introduction
This book summarises the status of this field until about the end of 2020. Regular
meetings of theorists and experimentalists in the context of the BOOST conference
series,
3 have led to a fruitful exchange, triggering developments that shaped the field.
While several publications and studies on jet substructure existed already prior to the
first BOOST conference, it marks the beginning of an exciting scientific undertaking.
The three reports from this conference series provide valuable material [21–23]. The
interested reader is also referred to recent comprehensive reviews on theoretical
[24, 25] and experimental [26] aspects of jet substructure.
3 Conferences in this series are dedicated to the physics of jet substructure, and are called International Workshops on Boosted Object Phenomenology, Reconstruction and Searches in HEP. They
are organised annually, where the first one was held in 2009 at the SLAC National Accelerator
Laboratory at Menlo Park (USA).
