Resummation of non-global logarithms at finite Nc

چکیده
In the context of inter-jet energy flow, we present the first quantitative result of the resummation of non-global logarithms at finiteNc. This is achieved by refining Weigert’s approach in which the problem is reduced to the simulation of associated Langevin dynamics in the space of Wilson lines. We find that, in e+e− annihilation, the exact result is rather close to the result previously obtained in the large–Nc mean field approximation. However, we observe enormous event–by–event fluctuations in the Langevin process which may have significant consequences in hadron collisions.

Non-global logarithms and jet algorithms in high-pT jet shapes
We consider jet-shape observables of the type proposed recently [1, 2] where the shapes of one or more high-pT jets, produced in a multi-jet event with definite jet multiplicity, may be measured leaving other jets in the event unmeasured. We point out the structure of the full next-to–leading logarithmic resummation specifically including resummation of non-global logarithms in the leading-Nc l...
متن کاملThe resummation of inter-jet energy flow for gaps-between-jets processes at HERA
We calculate resummed perturbative predictions for gaps-between-jets processes and compare to HERA data. Our calculation of this non-global observable needs to include the effects of primary gluon emission (global logarithms) and secondary gluon emission (non-global logarithms) to be correct at the leading logarithm (LL) level. We include primary emission by calculating anomalous dimension matr...
متن کاملHemisphere jet mass distribution at finite Nc
We perform the leading logarithmic resummation of nonglobal logarithms for the single-hemisphere jet mass distribution in e+e− annihilation including the finite-Nc corrections. The result is compared with the previous all-order result in the large-Nc limit as well as fixed-order perturbative calculations.
متن کاملResummation of Jet Mass at Hadron Colliders
A method is developed for calculating the jet mass distribution at hadron colliders using an expansion about the kinematic threshold. In particular, we consider the mass distribution of jets of size R produced in association with a hard photon at the Large Hadron Collider. Expanding around the kinematic threshold, where all the energy goes into the jet and the photon, provides a clean factoriza...
متن کاملThe Complete Two-Loop Integrated Jet Thrust Distribution In Soft-Collinear Effective Theory
In this work, we complete the calculation of the soft part of the two-loop integrated jet thrust distribution in e+e− annihilation. This jet mass observable is based on the thrust cone jet algorithm, which involves a veto scale for out–of–jet radiation. The previously uncomputed part of our result depends in a complicated way on the jet cone size, r, and at intermediate stages of the calculatio...
