Resummed event-shape variables in DIS
We complete our study of resummed event-shape distributions in DIS by
presenting results for the class of observables that includes the current jet
mass, the C-parameter and the thrust with respect to the current-hemisphere
thrust axis. We then compare our results to data for all observables for which
data exist, fitting for alpha_s and testing the universality of
non-perturbative 1/Q effects. A number of technical issues arise, including the
extension of the concept of non-globalness to the case of discontinuous
globalness; singularities and non-convergence of distributions other than in
the Born limit; methods to speed up fixed-order Monte Carlo programs by up to
an order of magnitude, relevant when dealing with many x and Q points; and the
estimation of uncertainties on the predictions.Comment: 41 page
