QCD threshold corrections to Higgs decay and to hadroproduction in l + l − annihilation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present threshold enhanced QCD corrections to the bottom quark energy distribution in Higgs boson decay and to hadroproduction in l + l − annihilation beyond leading order in the strong coupling constant. This is achieved using the resummed decay distribution obtained using renormal-isation group invariance and the mass factorisation theorem that they satisfy and Sudakov resum-mation of soft gluons.

HIGLU and HDECAY: Programs for Higgs Boson Production at the LHC and Higgs Boson Decay Widths
The total cross section for Higgs boson production via the dominant gluon fusion mechanism including NLO [two-loop] QCD corrections can be calculated numerically with the program HIGLU. The QCD corrections are included for arbitrary Higgs and quark masses and increase the cross section at the LHC by up to a factor of 2. The source code HIGLU provides the evaluation of the production of the Stan...

Calculations of radiative corrections to the top quark width are reviewed. QCD effects are discussed for t − ¯ t systems produced in e + e − annihilation near the energy threshold. 1.1. Total Rate The top is the first heavy quark whose mass can be measured to better than 1% precision at a future e + e − collider [1, 2, 3]. Therefore, measurements of its width will not only test the standard mod...
متن کاملTwo-loop Correction to the Leptonic Decay of Quarkonium
Applying asymptotic expansions at threshold, we compute the two-loop QCD correction to the short-distance coefficient that governs the leptonic decay ψ → l+l− of a S-wave quarkonium state and discuss its impact on the relation between the quarkonium non-relativistic wave function at the origin and the quarkonium decay constant in full QCD.

We present the dominant two-loop electroweak corrections to the partial decay widths to gluon jets and prompt photons of the neutral CP-odd Higgs boson A, with mass MA0 < 2MW , in the two-Higgs-doublet model for low to intermediate values of the ratio tan β = v2/v1 of the vacuum expectation values. They apply as they stand to the production cross sections in hadronic and two-photon collisions, ...

I review recent advances in the calculation of higher-order soft-gluon corrections for a variety of QCD, Higgs, and SUSY processes in hadron colliders. A unified approach and master formulas for next-to-next-to-leading order soft and virtual corrections are discussed. I present some applications of the formalism to top quark pair production at the Tevatron and the LHC, top production via anomal...
