Leading Order Triple Collinear Splitting Functions Revisited

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2022-07-29 v2

Abstract

I review the factorisation properties of tree level amplitudes when three particles ii, jj, kk are collinear. The triple collinear splitting functions contain both iterated single unresolved contributions, and genuine double unresolved contributions. I make this explicit by rewriting the known triple collinear splitting functions for a quark and two gluons in terms of products of two-particle splitting functions, and a remainder that is explicitly finite when any two of {i,j,k}\{i,j,k\} are collinear.
