Abstract

We present theoretical predictions for the production of top-quark pairs with up to three jets at the next-to leading order in perturbative QCD. The relevant calculations are performed with Sherpa and OpenLoops. To address the issue of scale choices and related uncertainties in the presence of multiple scales, we compare results obtained with the standard scale H-T/2 at fixed order and the MiNLO procedure. Analyzing various cross sections and distributions for t (t) over bar + 0, 1, 2, 3 jets at the 13TeV LHC we find a remarkable overall agreement between fixed-order and MiNLO results. The differences are typically below the respective factor-two scale variations, suggesting that for all considered jet multiplicities missing higher-order effects should not exceed the ten percent level.

Next-to-Next-to-Leading Order Event Generation for Top-Quark Pair Production

Javier Mazzitelli, Pier Francesco Monni, Paolo Nason, Emanuele Re, Marius Wiesemann, Giulia Zanderighi

Summary: Studying the production of top-quark pairs in hadronic collisions is crucial for understanding the properties of the heaviest quark observed in nature, with Monte Carlo simulations being heavily relied upon and challenged by experimental measurements. This work presents the first matched computation of top-quark pair production at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD with all-order radiative corrections using parton-shower simulations, marking an important step towards simulating other hadronic processes with color charges in the final state.

Determination of the top-quark mass from top-quark pair events with the matrix element method at next-to-leading order: Potential and prospects

Till Martini, Turan Nuraliyev, Peter Uwer

Summary: In 2004, the matrix element method was used by the D/0 experiment at the Tevatron to determine the top-quark mass, and it has since become a powerful analysis tool. This article explores the potential of using the matrix element method at NLO to determine the top-quark mass using pair-produced top quark events. The study finds that the NLO accuracy significantly reduces theoretical uncertainties compared to leading order.

Next-to-leading order corrections for gg → ZH with top quark mass dependence

Guoxing Wang, Xiaofeng Xu, Yongqi Xu, Li Lin Yang

Summary: For the first time, a calculation of the complete next-to-leading order corrections to the gg -> ZH process is presented. The method of small mass expansion is used to tackle the challenging two-loop virtual amplitude, taking into account the top quark mass dependence. Reliable numeric results are obtained in all kinematic regions, and phenomenological predictions are provided for the total and differential cross sections at the Large Hadron Collider and its future upgrades. These results are crucial for reducing the theoretical uncertainties and providing theoretical inputs for future precision experimental collider programs.

Anti-kT jet function at next-to-next-to-leading order

Hao-Yu Liu, Xiaohui Liu, Sven-Olaf Moch

Summary: Jets constructed via clustering algorithms have been proposed for precision measurements, but missing QCD corrections at higher orders for the jet functions affect the theoretical accuracy. This work presents a method to evaluate jet functions at higher orders in QCD, involving phase space sector decomposition with suitable soft subtractions. A concrete example is given for the quark-jet function using the anti-kT algorithm with E-scheme recombination at next-to-next-to-leading order.

Higgs Boson Production in Association with a Top-Antitop Quark Pair in Next-to-Next-to-Leading Order QCD

Stefano Catani, Simone Devoto, Massimiliano Grazzini, Stefan Kallweit, Javier Mazzitelli, Chiara Savoini

Summary: The associated production of a Higgs boson with a top-antitop quark pair is a crucial process at the LHC, which allows for the measurement of the top-quark Yukawa coupling. The computation of radiative corrections to this process at NNLO in QCD perturbation theory is presented. This is the first computation for a 2 -> 3 process with massive colored particles at this perturbative order. A soft Higgs boson approximation for loop amplitudes is developed to quantify the impact of the unknown two-loop contribution. The NNLO corrections at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV increase the NLO result for the total cross section by about 4% and reduce perturbative uncertainties significantly.

Next-to-leading non-global logarithms in QCD

Andrea Banfi, Frederic A. Dreyer, Pier Francesco Monni

Summary: In this article, the resummation of NLL soft corrections for observables sensitive only to soft radiation is considered, and a set of integro-differential equations that describe the evolution of the corrections is derived. The formulation provided is finite in four space-time dimensions and can be generalized to treat other infrared-safe observables sensitive solely to soft wide-angle radiation.

Extraction of Next-to-Next-to-Leading-Order Parton Distribution Functions from Lattice QCD Calculations

Zheng-Yang Li, Yan-Qing Ma, Jian-Wei Qiu

Summary: This study introduces complete next-to-next-to-leading-order coefficient functions to match flavor nonsinglct quark correlation functions in position space to parton distribution functions (PDFs), making predictions for valence-quark correlation functions. By performing Fourier transformation, matching coefficients for corresponding quasi-PDFs and pseudo-PDFs are obtained. The calculations can be generalized to evaluate matching coefficients for sea-quark and gluon correlation functions.

Towards gg → HH at next-to-next-to-leading order: Light-fermionic three-loop corrections

Joshua Davies, Kay Schoenwald, Matthias Steinhauser

Summary: We study the light-fermion three-loop corrections to gg -> HH using forward scattering kinematics in the limit of a vanishing Higgs boson mass, which covers a large part of the physical phase space. We compute the form factors and discuss the technical challenges. The approach outlined in this letter can be used to obtain the full virtual corrections to gg -> HH at next-to-next-to-leading order.

QCD improved top-quark decay at next-to-next-to-leading order

Rui-Qing Meng, Sheng-Quan Wang, Ting Sun, Chao-Qin Luo, Jian-Ming Shen, Xing-Gang Wu

Summary: This study applies the Principle of Maximum Conformality (PMC) to analyze the top-quark decay at NNLO in QCD, eliminating renormalization scheme and scale ambiguities. The PMC scale Q(star) is determined to be 15.5 GeV, an order of magnitude smaller than the conventional choice mu(r) = m(t), indicating the small virtuality of the QCD dynamics in top-quark decay. Removal of non-conformal beta terms in the pQCD series avoids renormalon divergence, resulting in a significant increase in NLO QCD correction and suppression of NNLO QCD correction compared to conventional results obtained at mu(r) = m(t). Including NLO electroweak corrections, finite W boson width, and finite bottom quark mass, the top-quark total decay width Gamma(tot)(t) is obtained as 1.3112(-0.0189)(+0.0190) GeV.

Next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to Wbb over line production at the LHC

Heribertus Bayu Hartanto, Rene Poncelet, Andrei Popescu, Simone Zoia

Summary: We compute the theoretical predictions for the production of a W boson in association with a bottom-quark pair at hadron colliders at NNLO in QCD. We derive an analytic expression for the required two-loop five-particle amplitudes in the leading color approximation employing finite-field methods. Numerical results show an improvement in the perturbative convergence upon inclusion of NNLO QCD corrections.

Width Difference in the B - <(B)over bar> System at Next-to-Next-to-Leading Order of QCD

Marvin Gerlach, Ulrich Nierste, Vladyslav Shtabovenko, Matthias Steinhauser

Summary: This study extends the theoretical prediction for the width difference of neutral B mesons in the Standard Model to next-to-next-to-leading order in alpha s. The calculation involves analytical evaluation of three-loop diagrams and considerations of infrared divergences, evanescent operators, and renormalization effects. The results show that while the uncertainty in |V-cb| affects individual parameters, the ratio of delta gamma(s) to delta M-s is not influenced by it.

The next-to-leading order Higgs impact factor in the infinite top-mass limit

Francesco Giovanni Celiberto, Michael Fucilla, Dmitry Yu Ivanov, Mohammed M. A. Mohammed, Alessandro Papa

Summary: This article calculates the next-to-leading order correction to the impact factor for the production of a forward Higgs boson in the infinite top-mass limit. The result is presented both in momentum representation and as a superposition of the eigenfunctions of the leading-order BFKL kernel. This impact factor is crucial for describing the inclusive hadroproduction of a forward Higgs in the small Bjorken x limit, as well as for studying the inclusive forward emissions of a Higgs boson in association with a backward identified object.

Towards an all-orders calculation of the electroweak bubble wall velocity

Stefan Hoche, Jonathan Kozaczuk, Andrew J. Long, Jessica Turner, Yikun Wang

Summary: In this study, we analyzed the expansion of Higgs condensate bubbles during a first-order electroweak phase transition in the early Universe. The interaction of particles with the bubble wall may involve the emission of multiple soft gauge bosons. Resummation to all orders is necessary when the wall velocity is large, and we performed this resummation analytically and numerically at leading logarithmic accuracy. Both approaches agreed to a 10% level, and for fast-moving walls, we found a scaling of the thermal pressure exerted against the wall.

Summary: In this paper, we discuss and illustrate the properties of several parton-shower algorithms available in PYTHIA and VINCIA in the context of Higgs production via vector boson fusion (VBF). We study a set of observables sensitive to the coherent radiation pattern of additional jets and compare different algorithms. Additionally, we investigate the robustness of these predictions as higher-order perturbative matrix elements are incorporated.

Summary: This paper presents updated Monte Carlo configurations for simulating the production of single electroweak vector bosons in association with jets in proton-proton collisions for the ATLAS experiment. The improvements in the electroweak input scheme, parton-shower splitting kernels, and scale-setting scheme reduce the required computing resources while maintaining the physics modeling performance.

Summary: High energy collisions at the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (LHC) produce a large number of particles beyond the acceptance of existing experiments. The proposed Forward Physics Facility (FPF) will host experiments to probe standard model processes and search for physics beyond the standard model (BSM). FPF experiments will explore BSM physics through searches for new particle scattering or decay signatures and deviations from SM expectations in a low-background environment.

Towards NNLO plus PS matching with sector showers

John M. Campbell, Stefan Hoche, Hai Tao Li, Christian T. Preuss, Peter Skands

Summary: We propose a new technique for fully-differential matching of final-state parton showers to NNLO calculations, focusing on the case of leptonic collisions with two final-state jets. The strategy is enabled by using the antenna formalism for NNLO antenna subtraction and the sector-antenna framework for the shower. Negative weights can be eliminated from the matching scheme as long as the combined real-virtual and double-real corrections do not overcompensate the real-emission term in the three-jet region. We describe the implementation of all necessary components in the VINCIA antenna shower in PyTHIA 8.3.

Accelerating LHC event generation with simplified pilot runs and fast PDFs

Enrico Bothmann, Andy Buckley, Ilektra A. Christidi, Christian Gutschow, Stefan Hoche, Max Knobbe, Tim Martin, Marek Schonherr

Summary: The poor computing efficiency of precision event generators for LHC physics is a bottleneck for Monte-Carlo event simulations. By focusing on the PDF evaluator and matrix-element generator, we have found solutions to reduce the computing footprint while maintaining the accuracy of the event sample.

Disentangling soft and collinear effects in QCD parton showers

Leif Gellersen, Stefan Hoche, Stefan Prestel

Summary: In this paper, a method for separating soft and collinear logarithms in QCD parton evolution at O(alpha(2)(s)) and leading color is proposed. The authors implement this technique in the DIRE parton shower and analyze the numerical impact of genuine triple-collinear corrections from quark pair emission in e(+)e(-) -> hadrons process.

Novel event generator for the automated simulation of neutrino scattering

Joshua Isaacson, Stefan Hoche, Diego Lopez Gutierrez, Noemi Rocco

Summary: An event generation framework is introduced for automated simulation of events in next-generation neutrino experiments. This framework combines the calculation of the leptonic current using an automated matrix element generator and the computation of the hadronic current based on advanced nuclear physics model. The validation is done for Standard Model simulations of electron scattering and neutrino scattering, and the first differential neutrino trident production results are shown in the quasielastic region.

Numerical resummation at subleading color in the strongly ordered soft gluon limit

Stefan Hoche, Daniel Reichelt

Summary: A Monte Carlo approach for soft-gluon resummation at subleading color is presented to enhance existing parton shower algorithms. The study focuses on numerically stable implementation of color matrix element corrections and approximates virtual corrections by requiring unitarity at the single-emission level. A proof-of-concept implementation to compute nonglobal event shapes at lepton colliders is provided.
