Abstract: We consider di-jet production in hadron collisions where a transverse veto is
imposed on radiation for (pseudo-)rapidities in the central region only, where this central
region is defined with rapidity cutoff. For the case where the transverse measurement
(e.g., transverse energy or min p
T
for jet veto) is parametrically larger relative to the
typical transverse momentum beyond the cutoff, the cross section is insensitive to the cutoff
parameter and is factorized in terms of collinear and soft degrees of freedom. The virtuality
for these degrees of freedom is set by the transverse measurement, as in typical transverse-
momentum dependent observables such as Drell-Yan, Higgs production, and the event
shape broadening. This paper focuses on the other region, where the typical transverse
momentum below and beyond the cutoff is of similar size. In this region the rapidity
cutoff further resolves soft radiation into (u)soft and soft-collinear radiation with different
rapidities but identical virtuality. This gives rise to rapidity logarithms of the rapidity
cutoff parameter which we resum using renormalization group methods. We factorize the
cross section in this region in terms of soft and collinear functions in the framework of soft-
collinear effective theory, then further refactorize the soft function as a convolution of the
(u)soft and soft-collinear functions. All these functions are calculated at one-loop order.
As an example, we calculate a differential cross section for a specific partonic channel,
qq
0
→ qq
0
, for the jet shape angularities and show that the refactorization allows us to
resum the rapidity logarithms and significantly reduce theoretical uncertainties in the jet
shape spectrum.

1 Introduction
In the recent years, jet substructure has been of great interest to the particle physics com-
munity since it can be used to discriminate between jets of different origins, e.g., quark
and gluon jets or jets from hadronic decays of boosted heavy mesons or Higgs and Z
bosons [1–12]. This is essential for expanding our understanding of quantum chromody-
namics (QCD) as well as testing the standard model (SM) or searching for beyond SM
physics.

In experimental studies of exclusive N-jet production, it is common to impose a veto
on the out-of-jet radiation in order to control soft emissions. Additionally, due to detec-
tor limitations these vetoes are imposed within a specific (pseudo-)rapidity region and the
veto is not imposed outside this region. These constraints can induce large logarithms of
the cutoff parameter, e
−η
cut
, and ratios of the veto parameter, p
cut
T
, to other scales in the
problem (e.g., the hard scale µ
H
∼
√
−t, where t is the usual Mandelstam variable). These
logarithmic enhancements could potentially ruin the effectiveness of the ordinary perturba-
tive expansion. In this work we propose a factorization theorem for resumming logarithms
of e
−η
cut
and p
cut
T
/µ within the framework of soft-collinear effective theory (SCET) [13–16],
where µ is the factorization scale. SCET was extensively used in the past decade for
factorization of observables with sensitivity to soft and collinear radiation, such as jet sub-
structure measurements in hadronic colliders. Some other interesting applications of SCET
include cross sections for event shapes in the collinear limit, jet production rates [17, 18],
and identified hadrons within jets [19–26].
In this paper, we study rapidity cutoff resummation and develop the necessary ingre-
dients for di-jet cross sections with transverse energy, E
T
, and jet-veto measurements in
hadronic collisions. Our results can easily be extended to zero and one-jet cross sections
as well. The transverse energy is defined as the sum of the scalar transverse momentum of
all the particles that do not belong to a jet and have rapidity, η, in the range |η| < η

where the rapidity is measured with respect to the beam axis. The veto is implemented
by imposing the constraint E
T
< p
cut
T
. Due to the nature of the observable one expects
that such a measurement is sensitive to the underlying event (UE). Measurements of the
UE activity have been performed by ATLAS and CMS in inclusive charged particle pro-
duction [27], Drell-Yan [28–30], and exclusive dijet events [31].
The effect of UE in transverse energy resummed distributions was studied in
refs. [32, 33] for η
cut
= 4.5 in the case of Higgs and vector-boson production using monte-
carlo simulation. In contrast to the work in this paper, in refs. [32, 33] the rapidity cutoff
was introduced only during the simulation and not in the resummed distribution. However,
as will be discussed below, for the large values of rapidity cutoff (η
cut
& 4.5) the effect of
the cutoff on the resummed distribution is expected to be small. In this work we ignore
effects of multiparton interactions and focus on contributions from initial and final state
radiation. In principle, effects from multiparton interactions could be included later on
top of our analysis as factorization breaking corrections but this is beyond the scope of
this work.
Similarly, the jet-veto measurement imposes |p
i
T
(R
veto
)| < p
cut
T
, where p
i
T
is the trans-
verse momenta of the i-th jet reconstructed by a jet algorithm and R
veto
is the jet cone size
parameter used during the vetoing process which could be different from the hard jet size,
R. Though the jet-veto measurements are less sensitive to UE, they suffer from logarithmic
enhancements of R
veto
. Such logarithms are known as “clustering logarithms” and appear
in next-to-next-leading order (NNLO) calculations [34–36], and could make an important

contribution to the cross section. At present there is no known method for resummation
of these logarithms but they could be included order-by-order in perturbation theory.
As a preliminary exercise we study di-jet production under the rapidity constraints in
an electron-positron annihilation process. Specifically we study the effects of the rapidity
constraints in the small transverse energy regime Λ

is the rapidity cut. For this simple example,
the transverse energy E
⊥
as well as the rapidity is measured with respect to the thrust
axis and therefore we use different notation (E
⊥
instead of E
T
) to avoid confusion. The
schematic form of the factorization of the cross section within SCET is,

where ⊗ denotes convolution over E

. The hard function, H describes the hard process:
e

→ q¯q, and the soft function, S, describes the soft radiation and cross talk between
collinear sectors. The collinear radiation along the thrust axis is described by the functions
J
q
which can be written in terms of the “unmeasured” jet function,
1
J
i
, introduced in
refs. [37], and contributions from out-of-jet radiation, which we denote as ∆J
i
. For small
values of the transverse momentum, E
⊥
ωr, the collinear radiation which is emitted
within the cone has parametrically large transverse momenta, compared to E
⊥
, and does
not contribute to the measurement. In this case the function J
q
reduces to the standard
unmeasured jet function. The corrections from the out-of-jet radiations are necessary to
describe the process for moderate values of E
⊥
. ωr. The collinear-soft function, S
n
,
describes the collinear-soft modes which are collinear in the n-direction and therefore can
resolve the jet-cone boundary. The global-soft function, S
s
, describes the standard u-soft
modes of SCET
I
which cannot resolve the small jet radius and therefore for the calculation
of S
s
no rapidity constraints are imposed. In this e
+
e

example there is no UE and therefore
the factorization is accurate up to higher orders in the effective field theory power counting
parameter λ ∼ E
⊥
/ω. This allows us to directly compare our results with simulation data.
For our analysis we use MadGraph [38] + Pythia 8 [39, 40]. Our calculations are in very
good agreement with Monte Carlo for most values of E
⊥
.
The refactorization of the soft function into global-soft and collinear-soft terms intro-
duces rapidity divergences which we regulate using the rapidity regulator of refs. [41, 42].
The rapidity scale dependence allow us to derive rapidity renormalization group (RRG)
equations which we solve to resum global logarithms of r up to next-to-leading logarithmic
(NLL) accuracy. This process closely follows the analysis in refs. [43, 44] where resumma-
tion of jet size parameter is performed in the context of electron-positron annihilation and
in refs. [45, 46] for proton-proton collisions. Non-global logarithms (NGLs) [47–54] of r
appear at NNLO calculations. Their resummation is particularly challenging since they do
not have the same pattern at each order in perturbative expansion. NGLs can be included
order by order in α
s
when their contribution is not large. Otherwise, resummation strate-

gies developed in perturbative QCD [47, 48, 55–60] or recent approaches in the framework
of SCET [43, 61–64] should be adopted.
Other logarithms of ratios of widely separated scales also appear in the factorized cross
section (e.g. ratios of µ
H
= ω, µ
J
= ωr, and µ
ss
= E
⊥
) are resummed by using the standard
RG evolution within the effective theory. We summarize the RG evolution properties for
all relevant terms in the sections 2.2, 3.2, and appendix A.3.
In hadronic collisions the beam direction plays the role that thrust axis plays in
electron-positron collisions and the collinear radiation along the n
B
-direction is described
by the beam functions [65]. The corrections to the beam function from out-of-beam radi-
ation will contribute to the transverse energy (or jet-veto) measurement in a similar way
as corrections to the jet function in electron-positron annihilation. For jet production,
in addition to the n
B
-collinear-soft and n
B
-collinear modes, we also have corresponding
modes along each jet direction. The contribution from n
J
-collinear-soft modes is considered
through further refactorization of the soft function including the n

-collinear-soft function,
S

associated with these functions and it should be noted that S
(a)
n,B
and S
(i)
n,J
are different
functions even for the same parton a = i because the veto for both functions is always
applied respect to the beam direction, not individual jet and beam directions. The parton
dependence of the soft functions will be suppressed for the rest of the text for simplicity
of notation. The contributions from the n
J
-collinear modes to the transverse energy are
suppressed and therefore the jet functions J
i
do not participate in the convolutions over
E
T
, while the beam functions B
i/P
do through E

/ωr terms in the power corrections. This
is discussed in appendix C. It should be noted that in this paper we focus in the region
E
T
∼ ωr where these corrections are important and NGLs of the form ln(E
T
/ωr) ∼ 1 and
therefore resummation is not needed.
The factorization formula in eq. (1.3) assumes the jets are in the central rapidity re-
gion, hence the factorization is invalid for jets in the large rapidity region, for which pure
t-channel forward scattering dominates. This process was extensively studied in the frame-
work of High Energy Jets (HEJ) [66–68] developed to resum logarithms of the rapidity
difference between jets and in the context of factorization violation by Glauber-gluon ex-
change [69]. The formula in eq. (1.3) can be used to calculate exclusive N-jet production
in the absence of UE and to understand its effect by comparing to ATLAS and CMS
measurements [28–31].
