The inclusion of higher order corrections removes the shape difference observed between data and next-to-leading order predictions. The theory uncertainty at NNLO is comparable to, or slightly larger than, existing measurements. Except for narrow kinematical ranges where all-order resummation becomes important, the NNLO predictions for the event shapes considered in the present work are reliable. As a prime application of the results derived in this work we provide a detailed investigation of the prospects for the precision determination of the strong coupling constant and its running through TeV scales from LHC data.", optnote="WOS:000992064600003", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5560), last updated on Mon, 03 Jul 2023 07:16:51 +0000", issn="1029-8479", doi="10.1007/JHEP03(2023)129", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.01086", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP03(2023)129", language="English" }
