Zero-jettiness beam functions at N3LO
Abstract
The zero-jettiness beam functions describe collinear emissions from initial state legs and appear in the factorisation theorem for cross sections in the limit of small zero-jettiness. They are an important building block for slicing schemes for colour-singlet production at hadron colliders. We report on our ongoing calculation of this quantity at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N3LO) in QCD, highlighting in particular the aspects of partial fraction relations and the calculation of master integrals.
