e+e− → 3 jets and event shapes

Classical QCD observable

testing ground for QCD: perturbation theory, power corrections and logarithmic resummation precision measurement of strong coupling constant αs current error on αs from jet observables dominated by theoretical uncertainty:

  • S. Bethke, 2006

αs(MZ) = 0.121 ± 0.001(experiment)±0.005(theory) theoretical uncertainty largely from missing higher orders current status: NLO plus NLL resummation

Theoretical description

easier than at hadron colliders, since coloured partons only in final state: no initial state emission, no parton distributions new calculational methods first developed for e+e−, then extended to hadronic processes
