چکیده

We consider power-like corrections in QCD which can be viewed as power surpressed infrared singularities. We argue that the presence of these singularities depends crucially on the energy resolution. In case of poor energy resolution, i.e., inclusive cross sections, there are constraints on in-frared singularities expressed by the Kinoshita-Lee-Nauenberg (KLN) theorem. We rewrite the theorem in covariant notations and argue that the KLN theorem implies the extension of the Bloch-Nordsieck cancellation of logarithmic singularities to the case of linear corrections.

FRIF Workshop on First Principles Non-Perturbative QCD of Hadron Jets Power Corrections in Electron-Positron Annihilation: Experimental Review

Experimental studies of power corrections with ee data are reviewed. An overview of the available data for jet and event shape observables is given and recent analyses based on the Dokshitzer-Marchesini-Webber (DMW) model of power corrections are summarised. The studies involve both distributions of the observables and their mean values. The agreement between perturbative QCD combined with DMW ...

Next-to-Leading Order perturbative QCD corrections to baryon correlators in matter

We compute the next-to-leading order perturbative QCD corrections to the correlators of nucleon interpolating currents in relativistic nuclear matter. The main new result is the calculation of the O(αs) perturbative corrections to the coefficient functions of the vector quark condensate in matter. This condensate appears in matter due to the violation of Lorentz invariance. The NLO perturbative...

On power corrections to event shapes

Recent work on the theme of power corrections in perturbative QCD is briefly reviewed, with an emphasis on event shapes in e+e− annihilation. The factorization of soft gluon effects is the main tool: it leads to resummation, and thus highlights the limitations of perturbation theory, pointing to nonperturbative corrections whose size can be estimated. Power corrections can be resummed into shap...
