It has recently been established that hadronisation corrections to QCD jets vary as $1/R$, at small $R$, for jets of radius $R$. Here we demonstrate, using jets in the $k_t$ algorithm, that the magnitude of these $1/R$ corrections are…

We calculate and resum a perturbative expansion of nuclear enhanced power corrections to the structure functions measured in deeply inelastic scattering of leptons on a nuclear target. Our results for the Bjorken $x$-, $Q^2$- and…
We derive a factorization theorem that describes an energetic hadron h fragmenting from a jet produced by a parton i, where the jet invariant mass is measured. The analysis yields a "fragmenting jet function" G_i^h(s,z) that depends on the…
We show how the resummation of large logarithms can be incorporated into the method of effective charges. As an example, we apply this approach to the event shape variables thrust and heavy jet mass in e+e- annihilation. We find that,…
The study of amplitudes and cross sections in the soft and collinear limits allows for an understanding of their all orders behavior, and the identification of universal structures. At leading power soft emissions are eikonal, and described…
We study the effect of optimising the renormalisation and factorisation scales on perturbative calculations of event shape means defined in the Breit frame of ep DIS. Unlike in the case of e^+e^- event shape means, this has only a small…
