Description

We consider QCD radiative corrections to vector boson pair production in hadron collisions. We report on the computation of radiative corrections to NNLO in QCD perturbation theory. We present results for Zgamma, Wgamma and ZZ production at the LHC by using the selection cuts typically applied by the LHC experiments. Our calculation consistently includes the leptonic decay of the vector-bosons with the corresponding spin-correlations, off-shell effects and singly resonant diagrams. We also present a comparison of our results to the ATLAS and CMS data.
