A subtraction scheme for computing QCD jet cross sections at NNLO: regularization of real-virtual emission

We present a subtraction scheme for computing jet cross sections in electron-positron annihilation at next-to-next-to-leading order accuracy in perturbative QCD. In this second part we deal with the regularization of the real-virtual contribution to the NNLO correction.
