In this talk we will focus on hadronic jets initiated by heavy
flavours. In particular, we will examine different observables to study
the dead cone effect, i.e. the suppression of collinear QCD radiation
around massive quarks, and to investigate the sensitivity of different
observable definitions to the presence of quark masses.

Our results are based on all-order resummed predictions at
next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) accuracy which provide a more precise
description of the transition near the dead-cone threshold. Furthermore,
we will compare our analytical findings with Monte Carlo predictions.
