We study power corrections to the differential thrust, heavy jet mass and C-parameter distributions in the two-jet kinematical region in e^+e^- annihilation. We argue that away from the end-point region, e>> \Lambda_{QCD}/Q, the leading…
In processes at the energy much higher than electroweak scale, weak boson mass act as the infrared cutoff in weak boson loops and resulting Sudakov log corrections can be as large as 10%. Since electroweak theory is off-diagonally broken…
