Thrust at N3LL with power corrections and a precision global fit for αs(mZ)

We give a factorization formula for the e[superscript +]e[superscript -] thrust distribution dσ/dτ with τ=1-T based on the soft-collinear effective theory. The result is applicable for all τ, i.e. in the peak, tail, and far-tail regions. The formula includes O(α[subscript s][superscript 3]) fixed-or...
