## TL;DR

This paper presents a high-precision calculation of the jet shape distribution at NLL$'$ accuracy, incorporating recoil effects and complex logarithms, and validates it against experimental data from ATLAS and CMS.

## Contribution

It introduces the first phenomenological calculation of jet shape at NLL$'$ accuracy including recoil effects, rapidity, and non-global logarithms.

## Key findings

- Good agreement with ATLAS and CMS measurements
- Recoil effects significantly impact jet shape predictions
- Underlying event and hadronization effects are modeled simply

## Abstract

The jet shape is the fraction of the jet energy within a cone $r$ centered on the jet axis. We calculate the jet shape distribution at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy plus next-to-leading order (NLL$'$), accounting for logarithms of both the jet radius $R$ and the ratio $r/R$. This is the first phenomenological study that takes the recoil of the jet axis due to soft radiation into account, which is needed to reach this accuracy, but complicates the calculation of collinear radiation and requires the treatment of rapidity logarithms and non-global logarithms. We present numerical results, finding good agreement with ATLAS and CMS measurements of the jet shape in an inclusive jet sample, $pp \to {\rm jet}+X$, for different kinematic bins. The effect of the underlying event and hadronization are included using a simple one-parameter model, since they are not part of our perturbative calculation.
