Description

It was recently found that a large number of observables in QCD acquire contributions at the single-logarithmic level, from ensembles of soft wide-angle energy-ordered gluons. Such effects were missed on a number of previous occasions in the literature and affect the phenomenology of the observables in question significantly. The resummation of these effects is encoded in a non-linear evolution equation, and this in turn opens up an interesting connection between jet evolution and "BFKL physics".
