Coherence-violating logarithms for general N-jettiness and the color algebra of sector generators

Matthias Neubert (U Mainz)

Aug 12. 2026, 11:30 — 12:10

I will present the calculation of the leading coherence-violating logarithms (CVLs) for N-jettiness $\tau_N$ at hadron collider for arbotrary N and for all relevant partonic channels. I will also comment on the extension of the calculation to higher orders. In this context,m the color algebra of sector generators -- sums of generators of collinear in- and outgoing particles -- play an important role.
