We present a new method to compute the soft function for the $N$-Jettiness variable for arbitrary $N$ at high perturbative orders in QCD. It is based on the observation that the most singular part of the soft function, the dipole…
A method to facilitate the consistent inclusion of cross-section measurements in proton parton density functions (PDFs) fits in NLO QCD has been developed. It allows the a posteriori variation of the renormalisation and factorisation scales…

We consider the double-soft limit of QCD amplitudes with two massive quarks in a back-to-back kinematics accompanied by two soft partons. We integrate analytically the respective double-soft eikonal functions over the phase space of the two…

The cross-sections of diffractive double hadron photo- or electroproduction with large $p_T$, on a nucleon or a nucleus, are calculated to NLO accuracy. A hybrid formalism mixing collinear factorization and high energy small-$x$…
We develop a new formalism to describe the inclusive production of small radius jets in heavy-ion collisions, which is consistent with jet calculations in the simpler proton-proton system. Only at next-to-leading order (NLO) and beyond, the…
