Combined Effect of QCD Resummation and QED Radiative Correction to W boson Observables at the Tevatron

arXiv:hep-ph/0401026 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.93.042001

Abstract

A precise determination of the W boson mass at the Fermilab Tevatron requires a theoretical calculation in which the effects of the initial-state multiple soft-gluon emission and the final-state photonic correction are simultaneously included . Here, we present such a calculation and discuss its prediction on the transverse mass distribution of the W boson and the transverse momentum distribution of its decay charged lepton, which are the most relevant observables for measuring the W boson mass at hadron colliders.
