New developments in exact amplitude-based resummation in precision theory vs experiment

Abstract

We present recent developments in the application of exact amplitude-based resummation methods in the confrontation between precision theory and recent experimental results. As a consequence, we argue that these methods open the way to 1\% total theoretical precision in LHC and FCC physics when realized via MC event generators.
