Do we need NLO Parton Distributions?
Stefano Forte, Andrea Isgro', Gherardo Vita
We discuss the uncertainty on processes computed using next-to-next-to leading (NNLO) parton distributions (PDFs) due to the neglect of higher order perturbative corrections in the…
Higher-order QCD effects for associated WH production and decay at the LHC
Giancarlo Ferrera, Massimiliano Grazzini, Francesco Tramontano
We consider Standard Model Higgs boson production in association with a W boson in hadron collisions. We supplement the fully exclusive perturbative computation of QCD radiative ef…
W+W-, WZ and ZZ production in the POWHEG BOX V2
Paolo Nason, Giulia Zanderighi
We present an implementation of the vector boson pair production processes ZZ, W+W- and WZ within the POWHEG BOX V2. This implementation, derived from the POWHEG BOX version, has s…
Universality of transverse-momentum resummation and hard factors at the NNLO
S. Catani, L. Cieri, D. de Florian +2
We consider QCD radiative corrections to the production of colourless high-mass systems in hadron collisions. The logarithmically-enhanced contributions at small transverse momentu…
Neutrino oscillations
G. Bellini, L. Ludhova, G. Ranucci +1
In the last decades, a very important breakthrough has been brought in the elementary particle physics by the discovery of the phenomenon of the neutrino oscillations, which has sh…
APFEL: A PDF Evolution Library with QED corrections
Valerio Bertone, Stefano Carrazza, Juan Rojo
Quantum electrodynamics and electroweak corrections are important ingredients for many theoretical predictions at the LHC. This paper documents APFEL, a new PDF evolution package t…
Polarized Parton Distributions at an Electron-Ion Collider
The NNPDF Collaboration, Richard D. Ball, Stefano Forte +4
We study the potential impact of inclusive deep-inelastic scattering data from a future electron-ion collider (EIC) on longitudinally polarized parton distribution (PDFs). We perfo…
Nonlinearly Realized Gauge Theories for LHC Physics
D. Bettinelli, D. Binosi, A. Quadri
We consider a minimal nonlinearly realized electroweak theory where mass generation happens à la Stueckelberg. Deformation of the nonlinearly realized gauge symmetry is controlled…
PDF uncertainties in the extraction of the W mass at LHC: a Snowmass Whitepaper
Juan Rojo, Alessandro Vicini
The precision measurement of the W boson mass is an important milestone for the LHC physics program in the coming years. An accurate measurement of allows to perform stringen…
Update of the Binoth Les Houches Accord for a standard interface between Monte Carlo tools and one-loop programs
S. Alioli, S. Badger, J. Bellm +44
We present an update of the Binoth Les Houches Accord (BLHA) to standardise the interface between Monte Carlo programs and codes providing one-loop matrix elements.
Parton distributions with QED corrections
The NNPDF Collaboration, Richard D. Ball, Valerio Bertone +6
We present a set of parton distribution functions (PDFs), based on the NNPDF2.3 set, which includes a photon PDF, and QED contributions to parton evolution. We describe the impleme…
The Stueckelberg Mechanism in the presence of Physical Scalar Resonances
D. Bettinelli, A. Quadri
We show that it is possible to accommodate physical scalar resonances within a minimal nonlinearly realized electroweak theory in a way compatible with a natural Hopf algebra selec…
Signal-background interference effects for beyond leading order
Marco Bonvini, Fabrizio Caola, Stefano Forte +2
We study the effect of QCD corrections to the signal-background interference at the LHC for a heavy Higgs boson. We construct a soft-collinear approximation to…
W and Z bosons in association with two jets using the POWHEG method
John M. Campbell, R. Keith Ellis, Paolo Nason +1
In this work we present the implementation of generators for W and Z bosons in association with two jets interfaced to parton showers using the POWHEG BOX. We incorporate matrix el…
Higgs production in gluon fusion beyond NNLO
Richard D. Ball, Marco Bonvini, Stefano Forte +2
We construct an approximate expression for the cross section for Higgs production in gluon fusion at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (NLO) in with finite top mass.…
Theoretical issues in PDF determination and associated uncertainties
The NNPDF Collaboration, Richard D. Ball, Valerio Bertone +5
We study several sources of theoretical uncertainty in the determination of parton distributions (PDFs) which may affect current PDF sets used for precision physics at the Large Ha…
Neutral current Drell-Yan with combined QCD and electroweak corrections in the POWHEG BOX
Luca Barze', Guido Montagna, Paolo Nason +3
Following recent work on the combination of electroweak and strong radiative corrections to single W-boson hadroproduction in the POWHEG BOX framework, we generalize the above trea…
Progress in the Determination of the Partonic Structure of the Proton
Stefano Forte, Graeme Watt
We review the current state of the art in the determination of the parton substructure of the nucleon, as expressed in terms of parton distribution functions (PDFs), and probed in…
The scale of soft resummation in SCET vs perturbative QCD
Marco Bonvini, Stefano Forte, Margherita Ghezzi +1
We summarize and extend previous results on the comparison of threshold resummation, performed, using soft-collinear effective theory (SCET), in the Becher-Neubert approach, to the…
