Dihadron angular correlations in the e+e− collision
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A bstract The precision of fixed-order calculations on the dihadron production in electron-positron annihilation is paramount for probing QCD factorization and constraining non-perturbative inputs. This paper investigates the QCD corrections to the angular separation distribution θ 12 between two observed hadrons, H 1 and H 2 , in the process e + e − → H 1 H 2 + X up to $$ \mathcal{O}\left({\alpha}_s^2\right) $$ O α s 2 , with particular emphasis on the intermediate region θ 12 ∈ (0, π ). The partonic processes at this accuracy consist of two sorts of contributions, the real-virtual and double-real corrections. Of them, the evaluation of four-body phase space integrals in the latter case is at the core of this study. To address them, we first employ the integration-by-parts (IBP) identities to reduce the number of independent integrals and then apply the differential equations (DE) method to recursively solve the resulting master integrals. In kinematic regions where the invariant mass of the unresolved partons vanishes, IBP coefficients can develop divergences. To this end, we resum higher-order terms in the dimensional regulator for each master integral based on the asymptotic behavior of the canonical DEs. After combining the real and virtual corrections with the counter terms from fragmentation function renormalization, we demonstrate that the pole terms in the final analytic expressions exactly cancel out in all partonic channels, thereby providing a non-trivial validation of collinear factorization at the next-to-leading order (NLO). Eventually, when presenting our analytic expressions of the finite partonic coefficients, we transform the transcendental functions resulting from the DE solutions into classical (poly)logarithmic functions, in order to facilitate the implementation in event generators.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
