Description

In this talk we present a determination of the strong coupling from a fit of QCD predictions for energy-energy correlation measured in electron-positron collisions at various center-of-mass energies. Experimental data are compared to precise theoretical calculations incorporating NNLO predictions combined with NNLL resummation in the back-to-back region. Hadronization corrections are assessed using modern shower Monte Carlo programs matched to NLO fixed-order computations.
