Abstract

A method for identifying gluon jets with very high purity is presented and the performance evaluated. Quark and gluon jets from Monte Carlo simulated Hadronic Z decays are identified by energy ordered jets and applying heavy flavour tagging. It is shown that quark and gluon jets can be identified with a purity of about 98%.
