Resummation of thrust distributions in DIS

Abstract

We calculate the resummed distributions for the thrust in DIS in the limit T->1. Two variants of the thrust are considered: that normalised to Q/2, and that normalised to the energy in the current hemisphere. The results expanded to second order are compared to predictions from the Monte Carlo programs DISENT and DISASTER++. A prescription is given for matching the resummed expressions with the full fixed order calculation.
