Universality and Kinematic Dependence of Hadronization Effects in DIS Global Event Shapes

Abstract

We propose a unified framework for a combined global analysis to constrain leading hadronization effects across the 1-Jettiness class of global event shapes for Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS). We show that for the subclass of jet-based event shapes where the leading jet direction is determined dynamically event-by-event, the leading hadronization effects can acquire a non-trivial dependence on the hard scattering kinematics. However, this dependence is explicitly calculable, allowing for universality of leading hadronization effects in the 1-Jettiness class. The non-trivial kinematic dependence provides an independent lever arm for simultaneously constraining hadronization effects in the jet-based and DIS thrust event shapes. This universality, combined with the kinematic lever arm, could allow for including the typically ignored peak region, where hadronization effects are most severe, in precision extractions of the strong coupling. We demonstrate the need for such a unified treatment of hadronization effects through comparisons of theoretical predictions with simulation data.

Hadronization effects and electroweak contributions in DIS one-jettiness

We study the structure of leading hadronization effects and the contributions of massive electroweak gauge boson exchange in the $\tau_1$ and $\tau_{1a}$ 1-Jettiness global event shapes for deep inelastic scattering (DIS). The leading hadronization effects in $\tau_1$ acquire a non-trivial dependence on the hard scatte...

Rethinking search signatures: Hadronic decays of GeV-scale feebly coupled particles

Experimental searches for GeV-scale feebly interacting particles commonly target the simplest decay signatures with two charged particles, including hadrons. Hadronic modes often dominate the inclusive decay rate, and their simulation relies extensively on \textsc{Pythia}. Its fragmentation model, calibrated mainly on...

Soft functions for generalised angularity event shapes at NNLO

We consider a class of dijet event shapes which tend to angularity in the forward limit. The factorisation formula for this class of event shapes differs from angularity only in the soft function. The NNLO soft function of an event shape in this class is therefore the only missing ingredient required for NNLL'resummati...

Factorization and virtuality evolution of jet functions in heavy-ion collisions

We develop a new framework to perform a virtuality-resolved description of jet propagation in heavy-ion collisions using perturbative techniques. The role of virtuality is rigorously identified by first deriving a factorized jet cross section that defines an in-medium jet function. This new definition allows to extend...

Extraction of DVCS amplitudes off the nucleon

This work presents a modern extraction of deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) amplitudes off the proton and off the neutron through a global analysis of experimental data. These amplitudes serve as a crucial intermediate quantity linking generalized parton distributions (GPDs) to experimental observables. The anal...

Generalised Dynamic Radius Jets for Robust Collider Analyses

Jets and their reconstructions play a central role in precision measurements and searches for new physics at hadron colliders. Conventional jet clustering algorithms employ a fixed radius parameter, which may not optimally describe events containing jets of varying characteristic sizes. Building on the recently propose...
