Beam and jet functions in Soft-Collinear Effective Theory describe collinear initial- and final-state radiation (jets), and enter in factorization theorems for N-jet production, the Higgs pT spectrum, etc. We show that they may directly be…

Precise predictions for Higgs production via vector-boson fusion play an important role when testing the properties of the Higgs boson and probing new-physics effects. While the inclusive cross section changes little when including NNLO and…

For precision studies with QCD observables at colliders, higher order perturbative corrections are often mandatory. For exclusive observables, like jet cross sections or differential distributions, these corrections were until recently only…
We calculate the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the `direct' part of the spin-dependent cross section for single-inclusive charged-hadron photoproduction. This process could be studied experimentally in future polarized…
In this article we illustrate how event weights for jet events can be calculated efficiently at next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy in QCD. This is a crucial prerequisite for the application of the Matrix Element Method in NLO. We modify…
Jets, as collections of multi-scale objects, allow for insight into perturbative (high-momentum) processes, but gaining an understanding of the non-perturbative structure within jets such as hadronization effects and the underlying event…
