Foundations of Perturbative QCD
TLDR
In this paper, a systematic treatment of perturbative QCD is given, giving an accurate account of the concepts, theorems and their justification, giving strong motivations for the methods.Abstract:
The most non-trivial of the established microscopic theories of physics is QCD: the theory of the strong interaction. A critical link between theory and experiment is provided by the methods of perturbative QCD, notably the well-known factorization theorems. Giving an accurate account of the concepts, theorems and their justification, this book is a systematic treatment of perturbative QCD. As well as giving a mathematical treatment, the book relates the concepts to experimental data, giving strong motivations for the methods. It also examines in detail transverse-momentum-dependent parton densities, an increasingly important subject not normally treated in other books. Ideal for graduate students starting their work in high-energy physics, it will also interest experienced researchers wanting a clear account of the subject.read more

Gauge-invariant TMD factorization for Drell-Yan hadronic tensor at small x
Ian Balitsky,Ian Balitsky +1 more
TL;DR: The Drell-Yan tensor for electromagnetic (EM) current was calculated in the Sudakov region as mentioned in this paper with a double-log accuracy, first at the tree level and then with the double log accuracy.
The Catchment Area of Groomed Jets at NNLL
TL;DR: In this article , a field theory framework for the doubly differential soft-drop groomed jet mass and radius measurement is presented, with a next-next-to-leading logarithmic (NNLL) accuracy including matching into the plain jet mass region.

W Boson Pair Production in Association with the Photon in Proton - Proton Collisions at LHC Energies
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the dependence of differential cross section distributions on transverse momentum and rapidity particles, which are produced in the final state (W+ and W−).
Study of worm-gear-T function $g_{1T}$ with semi-inclusive DIS data
TL;DR: In this paper , the worm-gear-T function was derived from data on polarized semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (SIDIS) measured at COMPASS and HERMES.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors give a comprehensive overview of the field of forward physics and discuss the occurrences of BFKL resummation effects in special final states, such as Mueller-Navelet jets, jet gap jets, and heavy quarkonium production.
