Power Corrections to Event Shapes in Deep Inelastic Scattering
arXiv:hep-ph/9704297 · doi:10.1007/s100520050103
Abstract
We investigate the power-suppressed corrections to the mean values of various quantities that characterise the shapes of final states in deep inelastic lepton scattering. Our method is based on an analysis of one-loop Feynman graphs containing a massive gluon, which is equivalent to the evaluation of leading infrared renormalon contributions. As in $\ee$ annihilation, we find that the leading corrections are proportional to $1/Q$. We give quantitative estimates based on the hypothesis of a universal low-energy effective coupling.
