Scale Optimisation and Event Shapes in Deep-Inelastic Scattering
M. J. Dinsdale
Abstract
We study the effect of optimising the renormalisation and factorisation scales on perturbative calculations of event shape means defined in the Breit frame of ep DIS. Unlike in the case of e+e- event shape means, this has only a small effect on the NLO QCD predictions and a large power correction is still required to fit the data. However, if separate renormalization scales are introduced for the quark- and gluon-initiated sub-processes the optimisation has a much larger effect and greatly reduces the size of the required power corrections. Unfortunately, there are then problems fitting the low energy data for some observables.
