Abstract :

Energy correlators characterize the asymptotic energy flow in scattering events produced at colliders.A range of promising phenomenological applications of energy correlators have been identified, ranging from the study of hadronization, the deadcone effect, measuring αs, the top quark mass to exploitation of medium scales in heavy ion collisions. While N-point energy correlators are interesting to study, for larger values of N the evaluation is computationally intensive. In this talk, I will discuss a fast method for the evaluation of higher point correlators. This method allows us to obtain a computational speed up of up to four orders of magnitude, depending on the desired accuracy.
