abstract

We calculate the beam function for longitudinally-polarized quarks through next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in QCD perturbation theory. This is the last missing ingredient needed to apply the factorization theorem for the $N$-jettiness event-shape variable in polarized collisions through the NNLO level. We present all technical details of our derivation. As a by-product of our calculation we provide the first independent check of the previously-obtained unpolarized quark beam function. We anticipate that our result will have phenomenological applications in describing data from polarized collisions.

Jet Charge with Global Event Shapes: Probing Quark Flavor Dynamics

hep-ph · 2025-12-04 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

A factorization theorem is derived for the joint measurement of 1-jettiness and jet charge in DIS, introducing a new universal charged jet function that enhances quark flavor separation in initial-state PDFs and probes final-state hadronization.
