QCD at high energy

• very lively and active field: 60 abstracts submitted to

the conference

• QCD at end of LEP hera: emphasis shifts from testing

the theory to pushing its precision

• Theory Standard: NLO.

• Tackle the study of power suppressed effects

Status of phenomenology

• Large body of tests in many different areas

• Overall agreement with theory

• Some minor discrepancies (need for better calculations)

• Some major discrepancies (interesting puzzles)

Heavy Quark mass effects

comparison of light and heavy quark hadronic events

exposes the effects of the heavy quark mass.

Two kind of analysis:

• Fit the b quark mass from the ratio of 3-jet rates in

b-quark jets and light quark jets

B3 =Rb3Rdusc3

(which can be computed at NLO including mass effects)

• Compare the αS determination in light quark events and

b, c quark events (tests of flavour independence of αS)

What we know about power corrections

• In Re+e−, 1/Q4 (from O.P.E.)

(why τ hadronic physics works so well)

• In DIS, 1/Q2 (from O.P.E.)

(why scaling sets in early in Q2)

• In Jets, 1/Q (from many points of view...)

(why Jet physics is so hard)

Can we understand Jets better?

Power Correction Model

Basic idea: from QED analogy, fluctuations

of gluons into virtual and real states cause αS

running. Physical quantities written as:

F (Q2) =∫dk2F(Q2, k2)αS(k2) .

(Unknown) low energy behaviour of αS

determines power corrections. Power correction

law determined by low k2 behaviour of F(Q2, k2)

F (Q2) ∝1

k→ 1/Q correction

F(Q2, k2): physical quantity computed with a gluon of mass k2.

Scheme by Dockshitzer, Marchesini, Webber.

Several similar suggestions: Akhoury and Zakharov, Sterman and

Korchemsky, etc.

Cannot work as is for shape variables (Seymour, P.N.)

Shape variables “know” what is

inside the blob.

Thrust: decreases for a generic

blob, does not change in some

kinematic configurations

1− t ≈ |k|/Q

1− t ≈ 0

Dokshitzer, Lucenti, Marchesini and Salam have examined these

effects at the two-loop level.

The effect amounts to a factor of order unity (Milan factor) in front

of the 1-loop (naive) formula.

This factor has the same value for several common shape variables

If 2-loop same as 1-loop, what about higher loops?

On the bright side:

• One parameter model of power corrections

• Also power suppressed effects depend upon color factors:

Kluth etal have used it to fit QCD color factors without relying

on Montecarlo hadronization models.

• Some support from data

• Alternative model to estimate power corrections:

low αS values from distributions.

Study using DELPHI data: PMS type of data

analysis (RGI) gives very good fit to data without

power corrections

Reinhardt,Flagmeyer,Hamaker, Passonand Wicke

So: Power corrections or NNLO?

Remarkable progress in NNLO calculations

Current goal: jet production in hadronic collisions.

• Double soft limit (Berends and Giele, 1989)

• Double collinear and soft-collinear (Campbell and Glover, 1998;

Catani and Grazzini, 1999; Del Duca, Frizzo and Maltoni, 2000)

• 2→3 amplitude at one loop level (Bern, Dixon and Kosower, 1993;

Kunszt, Signer and Trocsanyi, 1994).

• Collinear limit of one loop amplitudes (Bern, Dixon, Dunbar and

Kosower, 1994; Kosower, 1999; Kosower and Uwer, 1999)

• Soft limit of one loop amplitudes (Bern, Del Duca, Schmidt, 1998;

Bern, Del Duca, Kilgore and Schmidt 1999; Catani and Grazzini,

2000)

• Some analytic phase space integrals (Gehrman, Glover; Catani, de

Florian, Grazzini)

The two loop 2→2 contribution recentlycomputed (Anastasiou, Glover, Oleari, Tejeda-Yeomans; 2001).

Recursion relations among feynman integrals reduce the problem to

the computation of a small number of master integrals.

The hardest of those (double box, planar and crossed) only recently

solved (Smirnov, 1999; Tausk, 1999).

All ingredients needed for a full NLO computation of jetcross sections in hadronic collisions are in place now.

The implementation into a useful result is still a formidable task.

But it does not look far...

Conclusions and outlook

• Convincing tests of PQCD

• Few problematic areas, some serious puzzles

• NLO calculations are the standard now

• True progress can only come going from NLO to NNLO

• Hadron colliders are the near future: we need a quality

jump in QCD.
