description

This article gives the perturbative next-to-next-to-leading order results for the moments of the most commonly used event shape variables associated to three-jet events in electron-positron annihilation: thrust, heavy jet mass, wide jet broadening, total jet broadening, C parameter and the Durham three-to-two-jet transition variable.
