Description

I discuss jet vetoes as a means of probing colour flow in hard scattering processes in hadronic collisions. As an example, I describe a calculation of the dijet cross-section with a jet veto which resums the leading logarithms of the veto scale and it is matched to a fixed-order computation. I compare this prediction to the measurement performed by the ATLAS collaboration as well as to other different approaches. Finally, I outline future developments in this research area.
