Hadronic event shapes have been measured in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV, with a data sample collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. The sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.2 inverse picobarns. Event-shape…
We derive first next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic resummations for jet-veto efficiencies in Higgs and Z-boson production at hadron colliders. Matching with next-to-next-to-leading order results allows us to provide a range of…

We present the resummation of one-jettiness for the colour-singlet plus jet production process $p p \to ( \gamma^*/Z \to \ell^+ \ell^-) + {\text{jet}}$ at hadron colliders up to the fourth logarithmic order (N$^3$LL). This is the first…
The study of hadronic jets and their substructure at hadronic colliders is crucial for improving our understanding of QCD, and searching for new physics. As such, there has been a significant effort to improve their theoretical description.…
For many observables, the most difficult part of a single logarithmic resummation is the analytical treatment of the observable's dependence on multiple emissions. We present a general numerical method, which allows the resummation…
We illustrate one-loop weak corrections to three-jet production in $e^+e^-$ at $\sqrt{s}=M_Z$, to the production of a $Z$ or $\gamma$ in association with a hard jet at hadron colliders and to the production cross section of two $b$-jets at…

A quantitative description of the qualitative feature of multi-hadron final states known as the "number of jets" is given by a sequence of infrared finite shape observables (jet discriminators) that: take continuous values between 0 and 1;…
We study the photoproduction of large-p_T charged hadrons in e p collisions, both for the inclusive case and for the case where a jet in the final state is also measured. Our results are obtained by a NLO generator of partonic events. We…
