Description

I will discuss how to perform the simultaneous resummation of various series of logarithms using an extension of Soft Collinear Effective Theory, called SCET+. I will discuss this for the simultaneous measurement of the pT of the Z boson and the hadronic beam thrust event shape [arXiv:1410.6483], which was recently measured at the LHC. However, I will also consider other types of logarithms, including kinematic logarithms [arXiv:1601.05088], jet radius logarithms and threshold logarithms.
