NNLO+NNLL Predictions for Heavy-Jet Mass and C-parameter in Higgs Decays to Quarks and Gluons
Elliot Fox, Aude Gehrmann-De Ridder, Thomas Gehrmann +3
We consider the resummation of large logarithmic corrections arising in the two-particle limit at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic (NNLL) accuracy for the heavy-jet mass and …
The Thrust Distribution at NNLO+NNLL in Higgs Decays to Quarks and Gluons
Elliot Fox, Aude Gehrmann-De Ridder, Thomas Gehrmann +3
We present a calculation of the thrust distribution in Higgs decays to quarks and gluons, , , and , including the resummation of large logari…
Theory uncertainties of the irreducible background to VBF Higgs production
Xuan Chen, Silvia Ferrario Ravasio, Yacine Haddad +7
Higgs boson production through gluon fusion in association with two jets is an irreducible background to Higgs boson production through vector boson fusion, one of the most importa…
Precise Predictions for Event Shapes in Hadronic Higgs Decays
Elliot Fox, Aude Gehrmann-De Ridder, Thomas Gehrmann +3
We present NNLO QCD predictions for a wide range of event-shape observables in hadronic Higgs decays, taking into account the two dominant decay modes and …
Higgs production via vector-boson fusion at the LHC
Gaetano Barone, Jiayi Chen, Stephane Cooperstein +12
In this article, we summarise the recent experimental measurements and theoretical work on Higgs boson production via vector-boson fusion at the LHC. Along with this, we provide st…
QCD splitting functions beyond kinematical limits
John M. Campbell, Stefan Höche, Max Knobbe +2
We present a systematic decomposition of QCD splitting functions into scalar dipole radiators and pure splitting remainders up to second order in the strong coupling. The individua…
