Experimental results on event shapes at hadron colliders

Abstract

In this paper a review on event shapes at hadron colliders, mainly focused on experimental results, is presented. Measurements performed at the Tevatron and at the LHC, for the soft and hard regimes of QCD, are reviewed. The potential applications of event shapes for unveiling the origin of collective-like phenomena in small collision systems as well as for testing pQCD predictions are discussed.
