Description

We investigated to what extent jets - instead of hadrons - can be used to study Transverse Momentum Distributions. I will show that suitably defined jets behave exactly like single hadrons, the two being interchangeable in factorization theorems and obeying the same double-scale evolution. Such jets are excellent probes in processes like semi-inclusive deeply inelastic scattering, with the advantage of a reduced sensitivity to non-perturbative final-state effects. See arXiv:1807.07573 for further details.
