SISCone is a Seedless Infrared Safe Cone jet algorithm.

It was developped by Gavin Salam and Gregory Soyez. It is available as a library, as a standalone program or as a FastJet (>= 2.1) plugin.

News (21 May 2025): We have released a new version of SISCone (v3.1.1) with minor improvements of the CMake build system. This is part of the SISCone (v3.1.0) series which added CMake support (with thanks to Lindsey Gray for substantial contribution) and fixed small autoconf issues.

The algorithm is described in the publication JHEP 05 (2007) 086 [arXiv:0704.0292 [hep-ph]]. See the links below for more detailed information.
