Top Pair Threshold Revisited
Torbjörn Sjöstrand, Valery A. Khoze, Christian T. Preuss
Recently the CMS and ATLAS collaborations have found evidence for an unexpectedly large ttbar cross section in the threshold region, with an excess of the order of 5-10 pb relative…
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…
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…
NNLOJET: a parton-level event generator for jet cross sections at NNLO QCD accuracy
A. Huss, L. Bonino, O. Braun-White +37
The antenna subtraction method for NNLO QCD calculations is implemented in the NNLOJET parton-level event generator code to compute jet cross sections and related observables in el…
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 …
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…
