  1. 23. Top Quark Physics with D-Dimensional Generalized Unitarity
    Markus Schulze (Johns Hopkins University)
    14/09/2010, 16:45
    I will talk about results of a NLO QCD calculation to top quark pair production and decay at the LHC. The inclusion of top quark decays in the prediction allows for a fully realistic description of the final state at NLO QCD. In particular, I will point out the importance of spin correlations and corrections to the decay. I will also focus on results for top quark pair production in...

  2. 27. Electroweak corrections to W/Z + jet production at the LHC
    Dr Alexander Mück (RWTH Aachen)
    14/09/2010, 17:15
    In this talk we present the calculation of the next-to-leading-order electroweak corrections to W/Z-boson + jet production including leptonic W/Z-boson decays. The vector-boson resonances are treated consistently using the complex-mass scheme, and all off-shell effects are taken into account. The corresponding next-to-leading-order QCD corrections have also been recalculated. All the results...

  3. 21. Top-Antitop Production at Hadron Colliders
    Roberto Bonciani (LPSC, Grenoble)
    15/09/2010, 16:00
    We review the status of the theoretical predictions for the top-anti top production in hadronic collisions, paying particular attention to the pair production at the LHC. We stress the need for a complete theoretical analysis that includes higher-order quantum corrections and we discuss recent theoretical calculations at the level of NNLO.

  4. 7. Higgs boson from gluon fusion
    Dr Achilleas Lazopoulos (ETH Zurich)
    15/09/2010, 16:30
    Latest theoretical predictions on gluon fusion initiated Higgs production and decay, for Tevatron and LHC, using the fully differential NNLO package FeHiPro.

  5. 30. Transverse-Momentum Resummation in DY Production from Effective Field Theory
    Thomas Becher (University of Bern)
    16/09/2010, 15:45
    Using Soft-Collinear Effective Theory, a closed-form, all-order expression for the Drell-Yan cross section at small transverse momentum is derived, which is free of large perturbative logarithms. The anomalous dimensions and matching coefficients necessary for resummation at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic order are given explicitly. The precise relation between the effective-theory result...

  6. 32. Transverse-momentum resummation for Drell-Yan production at NNLL accuracy
    Dr Giancarlo Ferrera (University of Florence)
    16/09/2010, 16:15
    We consider the transverse-momentum (q_T) distribution of Drell--Yan lepton pairs produced in hadron collisions. At small values of q_T, we resum the logarithmically-enhanced perturbative QCD contributions up to next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. At intermediate and large values of q_T, we consistently combine resummation with the known next-to-leading order perturbative result. All...
