Corrections to Angular Ordering in Multiple Hadroproduction
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of the key ideas in describing the multiparticle production at high energies in the perturbative QCD is the angular ordering in successive soft-gluon emission. We analyse the angular distribution of particles in a jet, and investigate the corrections to the angular ordering. At a small angle from the jet direction, the angular ordering is exact at the next-to-leading order. At a large angle, the angular ordering overestimates the angular particle density by a factor (1 − γ ln cos2(θ/2)), where γ is the anomalous dimension of the multiplicity. The O(γ) correction restores the boost invariance of the cross section.

Structure functions and angular ordering at small x 1
We compute the gluon distribution in deep inelastic scattering at small x by solving numerically the angular ordering evolution equation. The leading order contribution , obtained by neglecting angular ordering, satisfies the BFKL equation. Our aim is the analysis of the subleading corrections. Although not complete — the exact next-to-leading contribution is not yet available — these correctio...
متن کاملQCD threshold corrections to Higgs decay and to hadroproduction in l + l − annihilation
We present threshold enhanced QCD corrections to the bottom quark energy distribution in Higgs boson decay and to hadroproduction in l + l − annihilation beyond leading order in the strong coupling constant. This is achieved using the resummed decay distribution obtained using renormal-isation group invariance and the mass factorisation theorem that they satisfy and Sudakov resum-mation of soft...
متن کاملSquark and Gluino Hadroproduction
We review the theoretical status of squark and gluino hadroproduction and provide numerical predictions for all squark and gluino pair-production processes at the Tevatron and at the LHC, with a particular emphasis on proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV. Our predictions include next-to-leading order supersymmetric QCD corrections and the resummation of soft gluon emission at next-to-leading-logar...
متن کاملOn the mechanisms of heavy-quarkonium hadroproduction
We discuss the various mechanisms potentially at work in hadroproduction of heavy quarkonia in the light of computations of higher-order QCD corrections both in the Colour-Singlet (CS) and ColourOctet (CO) channels and the inclusion of the contribution arising from the s-channel cut in the CS channel. We also discuss new observables meant to better discriminate between these different mechanisms.
