Distribution of $t_{\mathrm{jet}}$ for jets with the full Run 2 dataset in events satisfying the trigger requirements and satisfying $p_T^\mathrm{miss} < 300$. The jets are required to pass an inverted selection of $PV_{\rm track}^{\rm fraction} > 0.08$ to enrich the sample in those originating from main and satellite bunch backgrounds (all other jet cleaning selections are applied). Clear contributions from jets from satellite bunch collisions can be seen peaked around -5, 5 and 10 ns.

Contribution to the delayed time of jets from the $\beta$ of the gluino is plotted against the delay contribution from the difference (assuming straight line paths) between the path taken by the gluino and the particle forming the jet from the path length for a particle travelling directly to the same position on the ECAL barrel for gluino $c\tau_{0} = 10$ m and mass of 1000 Gev (top) and 3000 GeV (bottom). The dominant contribution is shown to be the gluino $\beta$.
