Sensitivity of the LHC isolated-gamma+jet data to the parton distribution functions of the proton

L. Carminati, G. Costa, D. d'Enterria +5

We study the impact of differential isolated-photon+jet cross sections measured in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt{s} = 7 TeV on the parton distribution…

Parton Distribution Benchmarking with LHC Data

Richard D. Ball, Stefano Carrazza, Luigi Del Debbio +9

We present a detailed comparison of the most recent sets of NNLO PDFs from the ABM, CT, HERAPDF, MSTW and NNPDF collaborations. We compare parton distributions at low and high scal…

Scalar Resonances in the Non-linearly Realized Electroweak Theory

D. Binosi, A. Quadri

We introduce a physical scalar sector in a SU(2)xU(1) electroweak theory in which the gauge group is realized non linearly. By invoking theoretical as well as experimental constrai…

A Mathematica interface to NNPDFs

Nathan P. Hartland, Emanuele R. Nocera

We present a Mathematica interface for handling the parton distribution functions of the NNDPF Collaboration, available from the NNPDF hepforge website http://nnpdf.hepforge.org/.…

Vector boson production at hadron colliders: hard-collinear coefficients at the NNLO

S. Catani, L. Cieri, D. de Florian +2

We consider QCD radiative corrections to vector-boson production in hadron collisions. We present the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) result of the hard-collinear coefficient…

CP violation and mass hierarchy at medium baselines in the large theta(13) era

S. Dusini, A. Longhin, M. Mezzetto +4

The large value of theta(13) recently measured by rector and accelerator experiments opens unprecedented opportunities for precision oscillation physics. In this paper, we reconsid…

Parton distributions with LHC data

Richard D. Ball, Valerio Bertone, Stefano Carrazza +8

We present the first determination of parton distributions of the nucleon at NLO and NNLO based on a global data set which includes LHC data: NNPDF2.3. Our data set includes, besid…

Heavy top renormalon contribution to fermion propagators

D. Bettinelli, J. J. van der Bij

We study resummed perturbative contributions due to a heavy top-quark. These renormalon contributions are evaluated for fermion propagators. Results for the top-quark width are giv…

Theoretical predictions for charm and bottom production at the LHC

Matteo Cacciari, Stefano Frixione, Nicolas Houdeau +3

We present predictions for a variety of single-inclusive observables that stem from the production of charm and bottom quark pairs at the 7 TeV LHC. They are obtained within the FO…

The threshold region for Higgs production in gluon fusion

Marco Bonvini, Stefano Forte, Giovanni Ridolfi

We provide a quantitative determination of the effective partonic kinematics for Higgs production in gluon fusion in terms of the collider energy at the LHC. We use the result to a…

NLO Higgs boson production plus one and two jets using the POWHEG BOX, MadGraph4 and MCFM

John M. Campbell, R. Keith Ellis, Rikkert Frederix +3

We present a next-to-leading order calculation of Higgs boson production plus one and two jets via gluon fusion interfaced to shower Monte Carlo programs, implemented according to…

Next-to-Leading-Order Event Generators

Paolo Nason, Bryan Webber

We review the methods developed for combining the parton shower approximation to QCD with fixed-order perturbation theory, in such a way as to achieve next-to-leading-order (NLO) a…

Threshold resummation in SCET vs. perturbative QCD: an analytic comparison

Marco Bonvini, Stefano Forte, Margherita Ghezzi +1

We compare threshold resummation in QCD, as performed using soft-collinear effective theory (SCET), to the standard perturbative QCD formalism based on factorization and resummatio…
