Precise QCD predictions for jet production at the LHC

Joao Pires

Theoretical predictions used in experimental analysis of LHC data have an inherent theoretical uncertainty associated to the relevant order in the perturbative expansion that the o…

Parton distributions for the LHC Run II

The NNPDF Collaboration, Richard D. Ball, Valerio Bertone +9

We present NNPDF3.0, the first set of parton distribution functions (PDFs) determined with a methodology validated by a closure test. NNPDF3.0 uses a global dataset including HERA-…

APFEL Web: a web-based application for the graphical visualization of parton distribution functions

Stefano Carrazza, Alfio Ferrara, Daniele Palazzo +1

We present APFEL Web, a web-based application designed to provide a flexible user-friendly tool for the graphical visualization of parton distribution functions (PDFs). In this not…

Resummation prescriptions and ambiguities in SCET vs. direct QCD: Higgs production as a case study

Marco Bonvini, Stefano Forte, Giovanni Ridolfi +1

We perform a comparison of soft-gluon resummation in SCET vs. direct QCD (dQCD), using Higgs boson production in gluon fusion as a case study, with the goal of tracing the quantita…

Associated ZH production at hadron colliders: the fully differential NNLO QCD calculation

Giancarlo Ferrera, Massimiliano Grazzini, Francesco Tramontano

We consider Standard Model Higgs boson production in association with a Z boson in hadron collisions. We present a fully exclusive computation of QCD radiative corrections up to ne…

Perturbative QCD description of jet data from LHC Run-I and Tevatron Run-II

Stefano Carrazza, Joao Pires

We present a systematic comparison of jet predictions at the LHC and the Tevatron, with accuracy up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO). The exact computation at NNLO is comple…

A first unbiased global determination of polarized PDFs and their uncertainties

Emanuele R. Nocera, Richard D. Ball, Stefano Forte +2

We present a first global determination of spin-dependent parton distribution functions (PDFs) and their uncertainties using the NNPDF methodology: NNPDFpol1.1. Longitudinally pola…

Threshold resummation at NLL accuracy and soft-virtual cross sections at NLO

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

We consider QCD radiative corrections to the production of colourless high-mass systems in hadron collisions. We show that the recent computation of the soft-virtual corrections to…

Tuning PYTHIA 8.1: the Monash 2013 Tune

Peter Skands, Stefano Carrazza, Juan Rojo

We present an updated set of parameters for the PYTHIA 8 event generator. We reevaluate the constraints imposed by LEP and SLD on hadronization, in particular with regard to heavy-…

Updated Higgs cross section at approximate NLO

Marco Bonvini, Richard D. Ball, Stefano Forte +2

We update our estimate of the cross section for Higgs production in gluon fusion at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (NLO) in in view of the recent full computation…

Towards precise predictions for Higgs-boson production in the MSSM

E. Bagnaschi, R. V. Harlander, S. Liebler +3

We study the production of scalar and pseudoscalar Higgs bosons via gluon fusion and bottom-quark annihilation in the MSSM. Relying on the NNLO-QCD calculation implemented in the p…

High-energy QCD evolution from BRST symmetry

D. Binosi, A. Quadri, D. N. Triantafyllopoulos

We show that the (gauge fixed) classical action of the Color Glass Condensate is invariant under a suitable Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin symmetry, that holds after the gluon modes are…
