Parallel talk WG4: QCD with Heavy Flavours and Hadronic Final States WG4

Speaker

Thomas Kurt Gehrmann (University of Zurich (CH))

Description

In this talk, we plan to discuss recent results on third-order (N3LO) perturbative QCD corrections to observables in massive gauge boson production at the LHC. We describe how existing NNLO calculations for vector-boson-plus-jet processes can be utilized to obtain fully differential N3LO predictions for fiducial cross sections in leptonic final states, using the qT subtraction method. The combination of fixed order predictions with N3LL transverse momentum resummation is outlined.
