Is the current status of boosted object reconstruction techniques sufficient for the needs of this searches? Is experimental b-tagging good enough for boosted H/ t kinematics? Do we need new techniques for leptonic and semi-leptonically decaying boosted objects? Are there better physical quantities to use for experimental discriminant distibrutions? esp. for states with missing...
