NNLO corrections to 3-jet observables in electron-positron annihilation

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

I report on a numerical program, which can be used to calculate any infrared safe three-jet observable in electron-positron annihilation to next-to-next-to-leading order in the strong coupling constant alpha_s. The results are compared to a recent calculation by another group. Numerical differences in three colour factors are discussed and explained.
