We investigate the power-suppressed corrections to the mean values of various quantities that characterise the shapes of final states in deep inelastic lepton scattering. Our method is based on an analysis of one-loop Feynman graphs…
The connection between renormalons and power corrections is investigated for the typical infrared renormalon integral assuming the effective coupling constant has an infrared fixed point of an entirely perturbative origin. It is shown that…
Standard power-behaved contributions in QCD arising from non-perturbative effects at low scale can be described, as shown by Dokshitzer, Marchesini and Webber, with the notion of an infrared regular effective coupling. In their approach, a…

It is widely believed that hadronisation leads to 1/Q corrections to e+e- event shapes. We show that there are further corrections, proportional to (ln Q)^A/Q with A=4C_A/beta_0~=1.6, associated with hadron masses and whose relative…
In recent years, energy correlators have emerged as a powerful tool to explore the field theoretic structure of strong interactions at particle colliders. In this Letter we initiate a novel study of the non-perturbative power corrections to…
We study power corrections to the event shapes in $\e^+\e^--$annihilation in the two jets kinematical region, $e\ll 1$. We argue that for $e \sim \Lambda_{QCD}/Q$ all power corrections of the form $1/\lr{Qe}^n$ have to be taken into account…
Nonperturbative effects in event shape distributions can be characterized by shape functions derived in the eikonal approximation or, equivalently, from soft-collinear effective theory. The use of energy flow operators and the boost…
Perturbative QCD (pQCD) running coupling a(Q^2) (=alpha_s(Q^2)/pi) is expected to get modified at low spacelike momenta 0 < Q^2 < 1 GeV^2 so that, instead of having unphysical (Landau) singularities it remains smooth and finite there, due…
The possibility that non-supersymmetric quiver theories may have a renormalization-group fixed point at which there is conformal invariance requires non-perturbative information.
We discuss a class of event shapes for e+e- dijet events that include the thrust as a special case. Large logarithmic corrections to the corresponding cross sections can be resummed to all logarithmic orders at leading power. However,…
A group theoretical procedure for parametrizing non-forward matrix elements of non-local QCD operators is introduced. The related (two-variable) distribution amplitudes are given as sum over power corrections of the double distributions.…
Hadronization corrections to the thrust and related event shape distributions in the two-jet kinematical region of e+e- annihilation are summarized by nonperturbative shape functions. The moments of shape functions are given by universal…
The COMPASS collaboration published precise data on production cross section of charged hadrons in lepton-hadron semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering, showing almost an order of magnitude larger than next-to-leading order QCD…
We present a new semi-numerical method to compute leading hadronisation corrections to two-jet event shapes in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. The formalism we present utilises the dispersive approach, where the magnitude of power corrections is…
In this letter we address issues involved in quarkonium production near the boundaries of phase space. It is shown that higher-order non-perturbative contributions are enhanced in this kinematic region and lead to a breakdown of the…
We discuss quantum corrections to extremal black brane solutions in N=2 U(1) gauged supergravity in four dimensions. We consider modifications due to a certain class of higher-derivative terms as well as perturbative corrections to the…
This article provides a review of progress made in understanding inverse power law corrections 1/Q^p where Q is the hard scale for a given QCD observable. Special emphasis is given to comparisons of theory with HERA results.
We discuss nonperturbative radiation for a recently introduced class of infrared safe event shape weights, which describe the narrow-jet limit. Starting from next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) resummation, we derive an approximate scaling…
We present a sketchy review of renormalon-based phenomenology. In particular, the leading, 1/Q corrections to various observables, KLN cancellations for power-suppressed corrections and the fixation of operator matrix elements are…
