6th Vienna Central European Seminar, Nov , 2009 Soft-Collinear-Effective Theory André H. Hoang Doing jet physics using the concept of mode and scale separation at the Lagrangian and operator level More transparent access to jet physics problems. SCET is an alternative approach to jet physics. Feynman rules systematic power counting New proofs of factorization for processes not yet considered in the classic jet approach. Easier (and field theoretic) access to power corrections and subleading twist terms. IR-log resummation (soft+collinear) through renormalization. Precision QCD at the LHC.
