The start of the physics program at the LHC has added great impetus in the development of powerful theoretical tools to meet the many challenges that this collider brings. The production of jets and weak vector bosons is at the center of…
As hadron collider physics continues to push the boundaries of precision, it becomes increasingly important to have methods for predicting properties of jets across a broad range of jet radius values R, and in particular for small R. In…

In certain regions of phase space in jet production, large logarithms can arise which are resummed by the BFKL equation. Linear colliders can potentially be excellent places to study BFKL effects in jet production. We discuss an approach to…
In high energy proton-proton collisions, collimated sprays of particles, called jets, result from hard scattered quarks or gluons. Jets are copiously produced in these collisions; however, the dynamic process through which quarks and…
The factorization of short-distance partonic cross-sections from universal long-distance kinematic distributions is fundamental to phenomenology at hadron colliders. It has been predicted however that observables sensitive to momenta…
