Principal-value Resummation for Dilepton Production
We present a new method of resummation of QCD threshold distributions to the hard scattering function of the dilepton production cross section in hadron-hadron collisions. Our formulation by-passes the infrared singularities of the QCD running coupling through a principal value prescription, and does not require an explicit infrared cut-off. The resulting large corrections exponentiate, and we ...
متن کاملPrincipal Value Resummation
We present a new resummation formula for the Drell-Yan cross section. The formal resummation of threshold corrections in Drell-Yan hard-scattering functions produces an exponent with singularities from the infrared pole of the QCD running coupling. Our reformulation treats such ‘infrared renormalons’ by a principal value prescription, analogous to a modified Borel transform. The resulting expre...
متن کاملPerturbative Gluon Resummation of the Top-quark Production Cross Section
We present a calculation of the total cross section for top quark production based on a new perturbative resummation of gluon radiative corrections to the basic QCD subprocesses. We use Principal Value Resummation to calculate all relevant large threshold corrections. Advantages of this method include its independence from arbitrary infrared cutoos and speciication of the perturbative regime of...
متن کاملThreshold Resummation of the Total Cross Section for Heavy Quark Production in Hadronic Collisions
We discuss calculations of the inclusive total cross section for heavy quark production at hadron collider energies within the context of perturbative quantum chromodynamics, including resummation of the effects of initial-state soft gluon radiation to all orders in the strong coupling strength. We resum the universal leading-logarithm contributions, and we restrict our integrations to the regi...
متن کاملThreshold resummation for the prompt-photon cross section revisited
We study the resummation of large logarithmic perturbative corrections to the partonic cross sections relevant for the process pp → γX at high transverse momentum of the photon. These corrections arise near the threshold for the partonic reaction and are associated with soft-gluon emission. We especially focus on the resummation effects for the contribution to the cross section where the photon...
