Renormalization of subleading dijet operators in Soft-Collinear Effective Theory

We compute the anomalous dimensions of the next-to-leading-order dijet operators in Soft-Collinear Effective Theory. These anomalous dimensions will be important for improving the theoretical precision in the determination of the strong coupling constant by fitting the thrust distribution to LEP data. Although we focus on the context of thrust, our results will be applicable to a variety of jet observables.
