- Description
- Event shape variables like thrust play an important role in the measurement of the strong coupling constant at the LHC experiment. Their theoretical predictions by conventional fixed-order calculations can be unreliable due to soft or collinear gluons. In my talk I explain the basic concepts of QCD resummation of event shape variables that offer a better prediction in this soft and colliner phase space region. I would like to present current results of my Master thesis concerning the comparison of different matching schemes between resummed and fixed-order distributions.
