Bose–Einstein correlations of like-sign charged hadrons produced in deep-inelastic electron and positron scattering are studied in the HERMES experiment using nuclear targets of 1H, 2H, 3He, 4He, N, Ne, Kr, and Xe. A Gaussian approach is used to parametrize a two-particle correlation function determined from events with at least two charged hadrons of the same sign charge. This correlation...

ATLAS measurement of azimuthal correlations between particle pairs at large pseudorapidity separation in pp and pPb collisions are presented. The data were collected using a combination of the minimum-bias and high track-multiplicity triggers. A detailed study of the dependence of two-particle correlations on the charged particle multiplicity, transverse momentum of the pair constituents and...

It has been shown that power-law hadron spectra observed in jets stemming from high-energy ee and pp collisions can be described by a statistical hadronisation model based on microcanonical statistics and superimposed Negative-Binomial (NBD) multiplicity fluctuations [1,2,3]. In this talk, applications of this model to ep DIS are discussed: fits to fragmentation functions and multiplicity...

Jets provide a powerful tool for probing the dynamics of the quark-gluon plasma created in Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC. The modification of high-pT jets as they propagate in the quark-gluon plasma provides insight on structure of the plasma at short-length scale. Such modifications have been observed in a variety of measurements of single jet, dijet, photon-jet and charged-particle...

The production of prompt isolated photons at hadron colliders provides a stringent test of perturbative QCD and can be used to probe the gluon density function of the proton.
The ATLAS collaboration has performed precise measurements of the inclusive production of isolated prompt photons in 20.3 /fb of data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 8TeV and in 3.2 /fb of data collected at a...

Following earlier measurements of prompt photon production in DIS, the
ZEUS collaboration at HERA presents measurements of new kinematic
variables. These include the azimuthal separations of the recoil
electron, the outgoing photon and an accompanying jet, and the
fraction of the incoming virtual photon energy that is taken by the
outgoing photon and the jet.

For Deep Inelastic neutrino-proton scattering in the combination $\nu P - \bar{\nu} P$, we compute the exact $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s^3)$ perturbative QCD corrections to the charged-current structure functions $F_2$, $F_L$ and $F_3$. These results supersede previous approximations based on the first few Mellin moments by providing all-$N$ expressions for the coefficient functions. We discuss the...

In particular decays of these two resonances provide a rich and clean environment to study hadrons consisting out of light quarks and search for...

With the ever increasing amount of precise data available for hadron production processes, the perturbative QCD framework is being extended to explore effects and corrections that go beyond the next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy. Fixed order calculations at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) are becoming the new necessary standard required for precision predictions and, consequently, the...

Exclusive 0-jet processes at hadron colliders are nowadays studied at an unprecedented precision in theory and experiment. Within the framework of Soft-Collinear Effective Theory we discuss how to incorporate massive bottom quark effects in the resummed cross section for Drell-Yan, where as specific examples for a measured exclusive observable we consider the transverse momentum of the...

In this talk a short description of the soft gluon resummation for pp->ttbarH process will be given. This is the first application of the Mellin resummation technique in a 2->3 process. The absolute threshold resummation is performed up to NLL accuracy and matched to the known NLO QCD cross-section. Results for the total cross-section at the LHC and their theoretical uncertainties will be presented.

We present a first numerical implementation of the Loop-Tree Duality (LTD) method for the direct numerical computation of multi-leg one-loop Feynman integrals. We discuss in detail the singular structure of the dual integrands and define a suitable contour deformation in the loop three-momentum space to carry out the numerical integration. Then, we apply the LTD method to the computation of...

High Energy Jets (HEJ) is a novel method for organising the resummation of high energy logs in QCD to Leading Logarithmic accuracy (LL) in multi-jet production at hadronic colliders. In this talk, I will introduce the main concepts behind the approach and show how we build our exclusive predictions. I will show important results from recent LHC jet analyses. I will then discuss how the...

Hadronic jet production at LHC is an excellent testing ground for QCD. Essential components of QCD, necessary for the description of hadronic jet data, are hard parton radiation and multiple parton interactions. The importance of these components increases for final states including multiple jets. We will show results of one observables sensitive to the hard parton radiation, which is the...

A measurement of the decorrelation of azimuthal angles between the two jets with the largest transverse momenta is presented for seven regions of leading jet transverse momentum up to 2.2 TeV.

The average charge and the multiplicity of charged hadrons within a jet provide new insights into the modeling of strong interactions. The jet charge can also be used to tag hadronically decaying gauge bosons and the number of charged particles within a jet provides a powerful means to distinguish gluon-initiated from quark-initiated jets.
The ATLAS collaboration has used a selection of...

Production of electroweak bosons via vector-boson fusion (VBF) is one of the main process classes to study during the run-2 phase of the LHC. Its double-DIS-like structure gives rise to the characteristic signature of two tagging jets in the forward regions of the detectors, and distinguishes it from QCD-induced processes, which exhibit much more central jet activity. VBF processes allow to...

The measurements of the underlying events (UE) in the event topology of leading jet and leading track are presented. UE activities are quantified in term of particle and energy density. The UE observables are calculated in the transverse region with respect to the direction highest pT jet/track. These UE observables are measured as a as function of the pT of the leading track and jet.

An essential part of any factorisation proof is the demonstration that the exchange of Glauber gluons cancels for the considered observable. In this talk I will show that this can be done for the double Drell-Yan process (the double parton scattering process in which a pair of electroweak gauge bosons is produced), both for the integrated cross section and for the cross section differential in...

We study both the single and double parton scattering contributions to 4 jet production in kt-factorization using off-shell matrix elements and KMR PDFs. We compare them to the collinear case and find that the expected relevance of the Double Parton Scattering contribution is tamed in the kt-factorization framework: in particular, kinematic cuts should be chosen carefully as we thoroughly discuss.

So far no clear and spectacular effect was observed for jet production where single-parton scattering (SPS) contributions dominate. We discuss four-jet production at the LHC.
