Next-to-Next-to-Leading Soft-Gluon Corrections for the Top Quark Cross Section and Transverse Momentum Distribution
نویسنده
چکیده
I present results for top quark production in hadronic collisions at LHC and Tevatron energies. The soft-gluon corrections to the differential cross section are resummed at nextto-next-to-leading-logarithm (NNLL) accuracy via the two-loop soft anomalous dimension matrices. Approximate next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) differential and total cross sections are calculated. Detailed theoretical predictions are shown for the tt̄ cross section and the top quark pT distribution at the Tevatron and the LHC.

Next-to-next-to-leading order soft-gluon corrections in top quark hadroproduction
We calculate next-to-next-to-leading order soft-gluon corrections to top quark total and differential cross sections in hadron colliders. We increase the accuracy of our previous estimates by including additional subleading terms, including next-to-next-to-next-toleading-logarithmic and some virtual terms. We show that the kinematics dependence of the cross section vanishes near threshold and i...
متن کاملSoft-gluon corrections for t W production at N 3 LO
I present approximate results that include third-order soft-gluon corrections for the associated production of a single top quark with a W boson. The calculation uses expressions from soft-gluon resummation at next-to-next-to-leading-logarithm (NNLL) accuracy. From the NNLL resummed cross section I derive approximate next-to-next-to-next-toleading order (aN3LO) cross sections for the process bg...
متن کاملTheoretical Status of the Top Quark Cross Section
We discuss the most recent calculations of the top quark total cross section and transverse momentum distributions at the Tevatron and the LHC. These calculations include the soft-gluon corrections at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO). The soft NNLO corrections stabilize the scale dependence of the cross section.

متن کاملW Boson Production at Large Transverse Momentum
The production of W bosons at large transverse momentum in pp̄ collisions is studied. The next-to-leading order cross section in this region is dominated by threshold soft-gluon corrections. The transverse momentum distribution of the W at the Tevatron is modestly enhanced when next-to-next-to-leading-order soft-gluon corrections are added, and the dependence on the factorization and renormaliza...
متن کاملNNNLO Soft-gluon Corrections for the Top-quark pT and Rapidity Distributions
I present a calculation of next-to-next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNNLO) soft-gluon corrections for differential distributions in top-antitop pair production in hadronic collisions. Approximate NNNLO (aNNNLO) results are obtained from soft-gluon resummation. Theoretical predictions are shown for the top-quark aNNNLO transverse momentum (pT ) and rapidity distributions at LHC and Tevatron energi...
