Subtraction at NNLO

Abstract

We propose a framework for the implementation of a subtraction formalism at NNLO in QCD, based on an observable- and process-independent cancellation of infrared singularities. As a first simple application, we present the calculation of the contribution to the e+e- dijet cross section proportional to C_F T_RComment: 42 pages Latex; 7 figures included.
