dNch/d = 5000
Iterative cone (R>=0.5) with background
subtraction: calculate average energy and dispersion in
tower (in eta rings) for each event subtract average energy and dispersion
from each tower find jets with a jet finder algorithm (any)
using the new tower energies recalculate average energy and dispersion
using towers free of jets recalculate jet energies
Done, but can do more iterations
Space resolution is less then the tower size
