Abstract

Structure function of e+e- to hadrons cross section proportional to the longitudinal part of the hadron tensor is power suppressed with respect to an event shape variable in the two-jet region. In the SCET framework, we study the event shape distribution for this structure function to NLL level of accuracy. As, a result we obtain the angular distribution of hadron jets as a function of the thrust, in the two jet region. We further examine effects of non-perturbative hadronization corrections by adopting a shape function that reproduce the observed event shape distributions. Impacts of our findings on the electroweak measurements via the jet angular forward-backward asymmetry are discussed.
