Top pair invariant mass distribution: a window on new physics
R. Frederix, F. Maltoni
We explore in detail the physics potential of a measurement of the ttbar invariant mass distribution. First, we assess the accuracy of the best available predictions for this obser…
Comparative study of various algorithms for the merging of parton showers and matrix elements in hadronic collisions
J. Alwall, S. Hoeche, F. Krauss +11
We compare different procedures for combining fixed-order tree-level matrix-element generators with parton showers. We use the case of W-production at the Tevatron and the LHC to c…
Choosing the Factorization Scale in Perturbative QCD
Fabio Maltoni, Thomas McElmurry, Robert Putman +1
We define the collinear factorization scheme, which absorbs only the collinear physics into the parton distribution functions. In order to isolate the collinear physics, we introdu…
Hadroproduction of J/psi and Upsilon in association with a heavy-quark pair
P. Artoisenet, J. P. Lansberg, F. Maltoni
We calculate the cross sections for the direct hadroproduction of J/psi and Upsilon associated with a heavy-quark pair of the same flavour at leading order in alpha_S and v in NRQC…
QCD corrections to J/psi and Upsilon production at hadron colliders
J. Campbell, F. Maltoni, F. Tramontano
We calculate the cross section for hadroproduction of a pair of heavy quarks in a 3S1 color-singlet state at next-to-leading order in QCD. This corresponds to the leading contribut…
Higgs Boson Production in Association with a Photon in Vector Boson Fusion at the LHC
Emidio Gabrielli, Fabio Maltoni, Barbara Mele +3
Higgs boson production in association with two forward jets and a central photon at the CERN Large Hadron Collider is analyzed, for the Higgs boson decaying into a b bbar pair in t…
