Soft-gluon Resummation for Pseudoscalar Higgs Boson Production at Hadron Colliders
نویسندگان
چکیده
We compute the threshold-resummed cross section for pseudo-scalar MSSM Higgs boson production by gluon fusion at hadron colliders. The calculation is performed at next-to-next-to leading logarithmic accuracy. We present results for both the LHC and Tevatron Run II. We analyze the factorization and renormalization scale dependence of the results, finding that after performing the resummation the corresponding cross section can be computed with an accuracy better than 10%.

Soft-gluon resummation for Higgs boson production at hadron colliders
We consider QCD corrections to Higgs boson production through gluon–gluon fusion in hadron collisions. We compute the cross section, performing the all-order resummation of multiple soft-gluon emission at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic level. Known fixed-order results (up to next-to-next-to-leading order) are consistently included in our calculation. We give phenomenological predictions fo...
متن کاملHiggs production in hadron collisions: soft and virtual QCD corrections at NNLO
We consider QCD corrections to Higgs boson production through gluon–gluon fusion in hadron collisions. Using the recently evaluated [14]two-loop amplitude for this process and the corresponding factorization formulae [15, 16, 17, 18] describing soft-gluon bremsstrahlung at O(α2 S), we compute the soft and virtual contributions to the next-to-next-to-leading order cross section. We also discuss ...

متن کاملSoft Gluon Resummation in Transverse Momentum Space for Electroweak Boson Production at Hadron Colliders
The distribution of W and Z bosons produced with small transverse momentum (pT) at hadron colliders receives important contributions from large logarithms arising from soft gluon emission. Although conventionally the all-orders resummation of these ‘Sudakov’ logarithms is performed in impact parameter (Fourier transform) space, pT-space resummation is also possible, and offers certain advantage...
متن کاملSoft-gluon resummation for Higgs differential distributions at the Large Hadron Collider
We study the transverse-momentum (qT ) and rapidity (y) distributions of the Higgs boson in perturbative QCD, including the most advanced theoretical information presently available: fixed-order perturbation theory at Next-to-Leading Order (NLO) in the large-qT region (qT ∼ MH , being MH the Higgs mass), and soft-gluon resummation at the Next-to-Next-to-Leading Logarithmic accuracy (NNLL) in th...
