By utilizing the di-hadron fragmentation formalism, we extend the previous factorization of nearside energy-energy correlators (EEC) in the collinear limit and derive an all order resummation in the Fourier transform $b_T$-space. A perfect…
Event Shape Sorting is a novel method which is devised to organise a sample of collision events in such a way, that events with similar final state distribution of hadrons end up sorted close to each other. Such events are likely to have…
We discuss the CoLoRFulNNLO method for computing higher order radiative corrections to jet cross sections in perturbative QCD. We apply our method to the calculation of event shapes and jet rates in three-jet production in electron-positron…
Developing a general-purpose extraction system that can extract events with massive types is a long-standing target in Event Extraction (EE). In doing so, the challenge comes from two aspects: 1) The absence of an efficient and effective…

Standard QCD resummation techniques provide precise predictions for the spectrum and the cumulant of a given observable. The integrated spectrum and the cumulant differ by higher-order terms which, however, can be numerically significant.…

Lately, a New Transmuted Logistic-exponential (NTLE) distribution was introduced and studied as an extension of the Logistic-Exponential Distribution (LED) with wider applicability in lifetime modelling. However, the maximum likelihood…
We have recently calculated the second-order QCD corrections to the forward-backward asymmetry in e+e- annihilation (hep-ph/9905424). Here we recall the results and compare them to others in the literature.
We investigate the origin of next-to-leading power corrections to the event shapes thrust and $c$-parameter, at next-to-leading order. For both event shapes we trace the origin of such terms in the exact calculation, and compare with a…
In $e^+e^-$ shape-variable studies, and in particular for the case of thrust, fixed-order QCD predictions are typically supplemented with the resummation of contributions enhanced near the two-jet limit. In this work we examine whether…
