Description

I present results from recent high-order calculations for the production of electroweak bosons and top quarks. In particular, I discuss W and Z boson production at large transverse momentum, charged Higgs production, FCNC top production, and single-top production. Theoretical predictions which include higher-order soft-gluon corrections are presented for total cross sections and differential distributions at the LHC.
