Updated predictions for toponium production at the LHC

Speakers

Description

We provide an update on QCD predictions for top-quark pair production close to threshold, including bound state effects at the Large Hadron Collider. We compute the top-quark pair invariant mass distribution, including Coulomb resummation for bound-state effects, as well as threshold resummation for emissions of soft and collinear gluons. We discuss uncertainty estimates and present a proposal for the use of these predictions in experimental analyses.
