    Transverse momentum resummation in soft-collinear effective theory

    Full text link
    We present a universal formalism for transverse momentum resummation in the view of soft-collinear effective theory (SCET), and establish the relation between our SCET formula and the well known Collins-Soper-Sterman's pQCD formula at the next-to-leading logarithmic order (NLLO). We also briefly discuss the reformulation of joint resummation in SCET.Comment: 23 pages, 7 figures; version to appear in Phys. Rev.
