Celestial Blocks and Transverse Spin in the Three-Point Energy Correlator
abstract
Quantitative theoretical techniques for understanding the substructure of jets at the LHC enable new insights into the dynamics of QCD, and novel approaches to search for new physics. Recently, there has been a program to reformulate jet substructure in terms of correlation functions, $\langle \mathcal{E}(\vec n_1) \mathcal{E}(\vec n_2) \cdots \mathcal{E}(\vec n_k) \rangle$, of light-ray operators, $\mathcal{E}(\vec n)$, allowing the application of techniques developed in the study of Conformal Field Theories (CFTs). In this paper we further develop these techniques in the particular context of the three-point correlator $\langle \mathcal{E}(\vec n_1) \mathcal{E}(\vec n_2) \mathcal{E}(\vec n_3) \rangle$, using recently computed perturbative data in both QCD and $\mathcal{N}=4$ sYM. We derive the celestial blocks appearing in the light-ray operator product expansion (OPE) of the three-point correlator, and use the Lorentzian inversion formula to extract the spectrum of light-ray operators appearing in the expansion, showing, in particular, that the OPE data is analytic in transverse spin. Throughout our presentation, we highlight the relation between the OPE approach, and more standard splitting function based approaches of perturbative QCD, emphasizing the utility of the OPE approach for incorporating symmetries in jet substructure calculations. We hope that our presentation introduces a number of new techniques to the jet substructure community, and also illustrates the phenomenological relevance of the study of light-ray operators in the OPE limit to the CFT community.

High precision heavy-boson-jet substructure with energy correlators
The EEC peak in boosted Z jets is the Sudakov back-to-back region of the Z-pole EEC seen through a Lorentz boost, determined by one Lorentz-invariant shape function and computable at N3LL'.

Energy Correlators of Spinning Sources
Spinning energy correlators classify the full Euler-angle dependence of N-point energy flux, obey generalized Hofman–Maldacena positivity bounds, and their ratios to inclusive correlators in QCD are largely insensitiv...

Jet-by-jet energy correlators as stochastic probes of the parton-to-hadron transition
Per-jet fluctuations of binned energy-energy correlators show a smaller covariance trace and larger neighboring-shell correlations at hadron level than at parton level in Pythia and Herwig across all tested configurations.

Dissecting Parton Showers with Multi-Point Energy Correlators
Projections of four-point energy correlators cleanly separate spin from kinematic azimuthal correlations inside jets; spin effects are subdominant in accessible LHC kinematics.

Hydrodynamics and Energy Correlators
Energy-energy correlators in heavy-ion collisions exhibit classical hydrodynamic scaling from collective flow at large angles within the small-angle regime, collective modes at smaller angles, and light-ray OPE at eve...

Operator structure of power corrections and anomalous scaling in energy correlators
Linear power corrections in energy correlators have a universal anomalous scaling because the dijet operator must be combined with a triple-jet component at one-loop order.
