Abstract Starting from a factorization theorem in effective field theory, we derive a parton-shower equation for the resummation of non-global logarithms.We have implemented this shower and interfaced it with a tree-level event generator to obtain an automated framework to resum the leading logarithm of non-global observables wac 4011 in the large-

Abstract Splicing factor 3B subunit 1 (SF3B1) is the largest component of SF3b protein complex which is involved in the pre-mRNA splicing mechanism.Somatic mutations of SF3B1 were shown to be associated with aberrant splicing, producing abnormal transcripts that drive cancer development and/or prognosis.In this study, we focus on the relationship b
