Three-Jet Cross Section in Hadron Collisions at Next-to-Leading Order: Pure Gluon Processes.
نویسنده
چکیده
The next-to-leading order three-jet cross section in hadron collisions is calculated in the simplified case when the matrix elements of all QCD subprocesses are approximated by the pure gluon matrix element. The longitudinallyinvariant k⊥ jet-clustering algorithm is used. The important property of reduced renormalization and factorization scale dependence of the next-toleading order physical cross section as compared to the Born cross section is demonstrated. PACS numbers: 13.87Ce, 12.38Bx.

Higgs 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 کاملNNNLO 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...
متن کاملNNLO predictions for the Higgs boson signal in the H → WW → lνlν and H → ZZ → 4l decay channels
We consider Standard Model Higgs boson production by gluon–gluon fusion in hadron collisions. We present a calculation of the next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the cross section in the H → WW → lνlν and H → ZZ → 4l decay channels. The calculation is implemented in the parton level Monte Carlo program HNNLO and allows us to apply arbitrary cuts on the final state leptons and the a...
متن کاملSoft-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 کاملJet Production in Polarized pp Collisions at RHIC
One of the primary goals of the RHIC spin program is to determine the gluon polarization distribution within the proton. At leading order, pp collisions at RHIC involve a mixture of quark-quark (qq), quark-gluon (qg), and gluon-gluon (gg) scattering processes, with qg and gg contributions dominating. This makes RHIC an ideal place to study gluon polarization. For the past several years, the STA...
