Third-order QCD results on form factors and coefficient functions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We summarize recent higher-order QCD results based, directly or indirectly, on the Mellin-space computation of the next-to-next-to-leading-order splitting functions governing the evolution of hadronic parton distributions. Specifically, we briefly present third-order results for the coefficient functions in inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (including the structure function F3 not published so far), the on-shell quark and gluon form factors, and the total cross section for Higgs production at hadron colliders.

Sudakov Resummations at Higher Orders ∗
We summarize our recent results on the resummation of hard-scattering coefficient functions and on-shell form factors in massless perturbative QCD. The threshold resummation has been extended to the fourth logarithmic order for deep-inelastic scattering, Drell-Yan lepton pair production and Higgs production via gluon-gluon fusion. The leading six infrared pole terms have been derived to all ord...
متن کاملThe Longitudinal Structure Function at the Third Order
We compute the complete third-order contributions to the coefficient functions for the longitudinal structure function F L , thus completing the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) description of unpolarized electromagnetic deep-inelastic scattering in massless perturbative QCD. Our exact results agree with determinations of low even-integer Mellin moments and of the leading small-x terms in t...

As a first step towards the complete calculation of deep-inelastic scattering at third order of massless pertur-bative QCD, we have computed the fermionic (n f) contributions to the flavour non-singlet structure functions in unpolarized electromagnetic scattering. We briefly discuss the approach chosen for this calculation, the problems we encountered and the status of the project. We show the ...
متن کاملNon-Singlet Structure Functions at Three Loops: Fermionic Contributions
We compute the fermionic (nf ) contributions to the flavour non-singlet structure functions in unpolarized electromagnetic deep-inelastic scattering at third order of massless perturbative QCD. Complete results are presented for the corresponding nf -parts of the three-loop anomalous dimension and the three-loop coefficient functions for the structure functions F2 and FL. Our results agree with...
متن کاملNNLO splitting and coefficient functions with time - like kinematics ∗
We discuss recent results on the three-loop (next-to-next-to-leading order, NNLO) time-like splitting functions of QCD and the two-loop (NNLO) coefficient functions in one-particle inclusive e + e −-annihilation. These results form the basis for extracting fragmentation functions for light and heavy flavors with NNLO accuracy that will be needed at the LHC and ILC. The two-loop calculations hav...
