Progress in top-pair production at hadron colliders
arXiv:1206.0621
Abstract
We review recently derived NNLO QCD results for top-pair production at hadron colliders. We compare the size of the NNLO corrections in with the LO and NLO ones, and address the question of convergence of perturbative series. We compare the NLO and NNLO K-factors for the Tevatron.
