abstract

In this work we study the impact of recent findings regarding non-perturbative corrections in the three-jet region to $e^+e^-$ hadronic observables, by performing a simultaneous fit of the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ and the non-perturbative parameter $\alpha_0$. We extend the calculation of these power corrections, already known for thrust and C-parameter, to other $e^+e^-$ hadronic observables. We find that for some observables the non-perturbative corrections are reasonably well behaved in the two-jet limit, while for others they have a more problematic behaviour. If one limits the fit to the three-jet region and to the well-behaved observables, one finds in general very good results, with the extracted value of $\alpha_s$ agreeing well with the world average. This is the case in particular for the thrust and $C$-parameter for which notably small values of $\alpha_s$ have been reported when non-perturbative corrections have been computed using analytic methods. Furthermore, the more problematic variables are also well described provided one stays far enough from the two-jet limit, while in this same region they cannot be described using the traditional implementation of power-corrections based on two-jet kinematics.

    An updated N3LL'+O(alpha_s^3) thrust analysis yields alpha_s(m_Z)=0.1136 +/- 0.0012 from a dijet-restricted global fit, stable under fit-range, gap-scheme, and hadronization-model variations.

    The strong coupling at the Z mass is measured as 0.1181 from event-shape distributions using three-jet power corrections, with hadron-mass scheme ambiguity as the largest uncertainty.
