Three-jet event-shapes: first NLO+NLL+1/Q results

Three-jet event-shape distributions can be exploited to investigate the dependence of hadronisation effects on the colour and the geometry of the underlying hard event. We present here the first comparison of data in e+e- annihilation and state-of-the-art theoretical predictions, including resummation of large logarithms at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy matched to exact next-to-leading order and leading non-perturbative power corrections.
