“…Since observables at the LHC generally involve many scales, it is likely that resummation will lead to a quantitatively significant improvement of our theoretical predictions. Recent advances in Soft-Collinear Effective Theory have shown resummation to be achievable at the next-to-leading (NLL) [1,2], next-to-nextto-leading (NNLL) [3,4,5,6] and next-to-next-to-next-to-leading (N 3 LL) logarithmic order [7,8,9,10,11,12,13]. Practical results have included a precise measurement of α s from event shapes [10,11], better agreement with Tevatron data and reduced theoretical uncertainty for the the direct photon p T spectrum [5], and a bound on possible new colored states [14].…”
