Description

We present a first and extensive study of resummation effects for supersymmetric particle production at hadron colliders, focusing on Drell-Yan like slepton-pair and slepton-sneutrino associated production. We jointly treat the recoil corrections at small transverse-momentum and the threshold-enhanced contributions near the partonic threshold, allowing a complete understanding of the soft-gluon effects in differential distributions for slepton-pair production at hadron colliders. We show resummed transverse-momentum and invariant-mass distributions and compare them with the traditional transverse-momentum and threshold resummation formalisms as well as with fixed-order perturbative calculations.
