چکیده

We study the application of the joint resummation formalism to Higgs production via gluongluon fusion at the LHC, defining inverse transforms by analytic continuation. We work at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. We find that at low QT the resummed Higgs QT distributions are comparable in the joint and pure-QT formalisms, with relatively small influence from threshold enhancement in this range. We find a modest (about ten percent) decrease in the inclusive cross section, relative to pure threshold resummation.

The Resummed Higgs Boson Transverse Momentum Distribution at the Lhc *

We apply QCD resummation techniques to study the transverse momentum distribution of Higgs bosons produced via gluon-gluon fusion at the LHC. In particular we focus on the joint resummation formalism which resums both threshold and transverse momentum corrections simultaneously. A comparison of results obtained in the joint and the standard recoil resummation frameworks is presented.

Joint Resummation for Heavy Quark Production

1. Joint threshold and recoil resummation The formalism 1,2,3 of hadronic cross sections for the joint resummation of distributions singular at partonic threshold and at zero recoil has so far been applied to Z/W production 4, Higgs production 5, and prompt photon hadroproduction 6. For the latter 2 → 2 process, the formalism implements the notion that, in the presence of QCD radiation, the act...

Threshold resummation for high-transverse-momentum Higgs production at the LHC

We study the resummation of large logarithmic QCD corrections for the process pp → H + X when the Higgs boson H is produced at high transverse momentum. The corrections arise near the threshold for partonic reaction and originate from soft gluon emission. We perform the all-order resummation at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy and match the resummed result with the next-to-leading order per...

Sudakov Effects in Higgs Boson Production at the LHC

We discuss the resummation of Sudakov effects in a cross section from the viewpoint of its underlying factorization near the edge of phase space. We perform the resummation of Sudakov threshold logarithms in Higgs (Standard Model and Minimal Supersymmetric SM) production at the LHC, using an evolution equation in the Higgs mass that is derived from this factorization. We extend the class of uni...

Kinematical Correlations for Higgs Boson Plus High P_{T} Jet Production at Hadron Colliders.

We investigate the effect of QCD resummation to kinematical correlations in the Higgs boson plus high transverse momentum (P(T)) jet events produced at hadron colliders. We show that at the complete one-loop order, the Collins-Soper-Sterman resummation formalism can be applied to derive the Sudakov form factor. We compare the singular behavior of resummation calculation to fixed order predictio...
