Choosing integration points for QCD calculations by numerical integration
arXiv:hep-ph/0103262 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.64.034018
Abstract
I discuss how to sample the space of parton momenta in order to best perform the numerical integrations that lead to a calculation of three jet cross sections and similar observables in electron-positron annihilation.
