Single-top Transverse-momentum Distributions at Approximate NNLO

نویسنده

  • Nikolaos Kidonakis
چکیده

I present approximate next-to-next-to-leading-order (aNNLO) transverse-momentum (pT ) distributions in single-top production processes. The aNNLO results are derived from next-to-next-to-leading-logarithm (NNLL) resummation of soft-gluon corrections in the differential cross section. Single-top as well as single-antitop pT distributions are shown in t-channel, s-channel, and tW production for LHC energies.

Top-quark Transverse-momentum Distributions in T-channel Single-top Production

I present approximate next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) top-quark transverse momentum, pT , distributions in t-channel single-top production. These distributions are derived from next-to-next-to-leading-logarithm (NNLL) soft-gluon resummation. Theoretical results for the single top as well as the single antitop pT distributions are shown for LHC and Tevatron energies.

NNLL Threshold Resummation for Top-pair and Single-top Production

I discuss threshold resummation at NNLL accuracy in the standard moment-space approach in perturbative QCD for top-pair and single-top production. For top quark pair production I present new approximate NNLO results for the total cross section and for the top quark transverse momentum and rapidity distributions at 8 TeV LHC energy. I discuss the accuracy of the soft-gluon approximation and show...

Theoretical Results for Top Quark Production

I discuss and compare several approaches to higher-order calculations of top quark production. I study the relative effectiveness of the approaches in approximating the exact NNLO results for the top-pair total cross section and highlight the theoretical and numerical differences between them. I show that the results from my soft-gluon resummation method are nearly identical to the exact NNLO c...

Top Quark Cross Sections and Differential Distributions

I present results for the top quark pair total cross section and the top quark transverse momentum distribution at Tevatron and LHC energies. I also present results for single top quark production. All calculations include NNLO corrections from NNLL threshold resummation. TOP-ANTITOP PAIR PRODUCTION The leading order processes for top-antitop pair production are qq̄ → tt̄ (dominant at the Tevatro...

Theoretical 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. Presented at DPF 2004, Riverside, California, August 26-31, 2004.
