1209.5914 (P. Bolzoni et al.)

Gluon and quark jet multiplicities at N^3LO+NNLL    [PDF]

P. Bolzoni, B. A. Kniehl, A. V. Kotikov
We present a new approach to consider and include both the perturbative and the non-perturbative contributions to the multiplicities of gluon and quark jets. Thanks to this new method we have included for the first time new contributions to these quantities obtaining next-to-next-to-leading-logarithmic (NNLL) resummed formulae. Our analytic expressions depend on two non-perturbative parameters with a clear and simple physical interpretation. A global fit of these two quantities shows how our results represent an important improvement in the explanation of the experimental data.
