Fig. 2.

Left Value of the $p_t$ cut applied by the SoftKiller, displayed as a function of the number of pileup events. We show results for two different values of the generator minimal $p_t$ for the hard event, $p_{t,\mathrm{gen}}$. The solid line is the average $p_t^{\text{cut}}$ value, while the dashed lines indicate the one-standard-deviation band. Right Plot of the $p_t$ that is lost when applying a given $p_t$ cut (the $x$ axis) to the constituents of jets clustered (anti-$k_t$, $R=0.4$) from the hard event (solid lines) and the residual pileup $p_t$ that remains after applying that same cut to the constituents of circular patches of radius $0.4$ in pure-pileup events (dashed lines)
