Next-to-leading resummed coefficient function for the shape function

Abstract

We present a next-to-leading evaluation of the resummed coefficient function for the shape function. The results confirm our previous leading order analysis, namely that the coefficient function is short-distance-dominated, and allow relating the shape function computed with a non-perturbative technique to the physical QCD distributions.
