AI Article Synopsis

  • This study focuses on the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) calculation for single-jet production in polarized deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering, marking a significant advancement in the accuracy of these calculations.
  • The research utilizes a projection-to-Born method to combine previous findings on di-jet production with NNLO coefficients, achieving a fully exclusive NNLO accuracy for single-jet observables.
  • The paper also examines the stability of perturbative results and the implications of QCD corrections relevant to the Electron-Ion Collider kinematics, enhancing our understanding of polarized cross sections in high-energy physics.

Article Abstract

We present the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) calculation for single-inclusive jet production in polarized deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering e[over →]p[over →]→jet+X. We perform the computation based on the projection-to-Born method by combining our recent next-to-leading order result for di-jet production in polarized deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering along with the NNLO coefficients for the inclusive cross section. In this way, we achieve NNLO accuracy in a fully exclusive way for single-jet observables, the first time for a polarized cross section. We study the perturbative stability and phenomenological consequences of the QCD corrections for Electron-Ion Collider kinematics.
