Collinear and soft gluon corrections to Higgs production at NNNLO

چکیده

I present analytical expressions for the collinear and soft gluon corrections to Higgs production via the process b ¯ b → H as well as gg → H through next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (NNNLO). The soft corrections are complete while the collinear corrections include leading and some subleading logarithms. Numerical results at the Tevatron and the LHC are presented, primarily for b ¯ b → H. It is shown that the collinear terms greatly improve the soft and virtual approximation at next-to-leading order (NLO) and next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO), especially when subleading terms are included. The NNNLO collinear and soft corrections provide significant enhancements to the total cross section. I also provide expressions for the collinear and soft corrections through NNNLO for the related Drell-Yan process.

NNNLO Soft-gluon Corrections for the Top-antitop Pair Production Cross Section

I present a calculation of next-to-next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNNLO) soft-gluon corrections for top-antitop pair production in hadronic collisions. Approximate NNNLO (aNNNLO) results are obtained by adding the NNNLO soft-gluon corrections to the complete next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) cross section. Theoretical predictions are shown for the total aNNNLO tt̄ cross section at LHC and Tev...

Soft and Collinear Enhancements to Top Quark and Higgs Cross Sections

I present calculations of soft and collinear corrections to the cross sections for single top quark production, and for Higgs production via bb̄ → H at the Tevatron and the LHC. I show that the corrections provide significant enhancements to the cross sections in both cases. For single top production the soft gluon corrections dominate the cross section, particularly in the s channel and in tW p...

Soft-gluon Corrections to Hard-scattering Cross Sections Through NNNLO

I present a systematic approach to calculating soft-gluon corrections through next-to-next-to-nextto-leading order for arbitrary hard-scattering cross sections. Using a unified approach, master formulas are derived for processes with both simple and complex color flows. Applications and numerical results are given for some processes of interest, including charged Higgs production and top quark ...
