Matrix element method at NLO: A fine proof of concept in POWHEG
Ulrich Haisch, Jakob Linder, Luc Schnell +2
The matrix element method (MEM) provides a fully probabilistic approach to confront experimental events with theory, retaining all correlations in the scattering matrix element. Wh…
NNLO+PS Higgs-pair production in MiNNLOPS
Francesco Garosi, Marius Wiesemann, Giulia Zanderighi
We consider Higgs-boson pair production in gluon fusion at hadron colliders and match next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) QCD corrections to parton showers within the MiNNLO$_{PS}…
Polarized-boson pairs at NLO in the SMEFT
Ulrich Haisch, Jakob Linder, Giovanni Pelliccioli +2
We present a computation of diboson production in the channel at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), incorporating leptonic decays of the gauge bosons and considering interm…
Modelling production for the LHC at 13.6 TeV
Christian Biello, Alessandro Gavardi, Rebecca von Kuk +10
We present new state-of-the-art predictions for Standard Model Higgs boson production in association with a bottom-quark pair (). Updated cross sections are computed in a…
Parton-shower and fixed-order QCD effects in Higgs-boson production in weak-boson fusion and its decays to bottom quarks
Arnd Behring, Kirill Melnikov, Ivan Novikov +1
Recently, it was observed [arXiv:2407.09363] that an aggressive cut on the -jets' transverse momenta applied to Higgs-boson production in weak-boson fusion followed by the decay…
A new probe of the quartic Higgs self-coupling
Ulrich Haisch, Aparna Sankar, Giulia Zanderighi
We calculate the corrections to the Higgs wave-function renormalization constant arising from modified cubic, quartic, and quintic Higgs self-couplings up to the two-loop level. Us…
