abstract

We discuss the relation between partonic distributions near the phase space boundary and Wilson loop expectation values calculated along paths partially lying on the light-cone. Due to additional light-cone singularities, multiplicative renormalizability for these expectation values is lost. Nevertheless we establish the renormalization group equation for the light like Wilson loops and show that it is equivalent to the evolution equation for the physical distributions. By performing a two-loop calculation we verify these properties and show that the universal form of the splitting function for large x originates from the cusp anomalous dimension of Wilson loops.

Slepton pair production at next-to-leading power

hep-ph · 2025-10-08 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Evaluates next-to-leading power threshold corrections for slepton pair production and finds them significant compared to leading power NLL terms, with underestimated scale errors for large masses.

NLP threshold corrections to W+jet production

hep-ph · 2025-10-07 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Computes helicity-dependent NLP leading logs in W+jet production via spinor shifts and soft quark operators, confirming agreement with a universal NLP structure for massive colourless final states plus jet.
