Dilepton Rapidity Distribution in Drell-Yan Production to Third Order in QCD (2022)
Journal Article
Chen, X., Gehrmann, T., Glover, N., Huss, A., Yang, T.-Z., & Zhu, H. X. (2022). Dilepton Rapidity Distribution in Drell-Yan Production to Third Order in QCD. Physical Review Letters, 128(5), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.128.052001

We compute for the first time the lepton-pair rapidity distribution in the photon-mediated Drell-Yan process to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD. The calculation is based on the qT -subtraction method, suitably extended to this order for... Read More about Dilepton Rapidity Distribution in Drell-Yan Production to Third Order in QCD.

Fiducial cross sections for the lepton-pair-plus-photon decay mode in Higgs production up to NNLO QCD (2022)
Journal Article
Chen, X., Gehrmann, T., Glover, E., & Huss, A. (2022). Fiducial cross sections for the lepton-pair-plus-photon decay mode in Higgs production up to NNLO QCD. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022(53), Article 53. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep01%282022%29053

The rare three-body decay of a Higgs boson to a lepton-antilepton pair and a photon is starting to become experimentally accessible at the LHC. We investigate how higher-order QCD corrections to the dominant gluon-fusion production process impact on...

The data taken in Run II at the Large Hadron Collider have started to probe Higgs boson production at high transverse momentum. Future data will provide a large sample of events with boosted Higgs boson topologies, allowing for a detailed understandi...

Fully Differential Higgs Boson Production to Third Order in QCD (2021)
Journal Article

We present the first fully differential predictions for the production cross section of a Higgs boson via the gluon fusion mechanism at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order ( N 3 LO ) in QCD perturbation theory. Differential distributions are shown... Read More about Fully Differential Higgs Boson Production to Third Order in QCD.

We present precise predictions for the production of a Higgs boson in association with a hadronic jet and a W boson at hadron colliders. The behaviour of QCD corrections are studied for fiducial cross sections and distributions of the charged gauge b... Read More about Precise predictions for WH+jet production at the LHC.

Scale and isolation sensitivity of diphoton distributions at the LHC (2021)
Journal Article

Precision measurements of diphoton distributions at the LHC display some tension with theory predictions, obtained at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in QCD. We revisit the theoretical uncertainties arising from the approximation of the experime... Read More about Scale and isolation sensitivity of diphoton distributions at the LHC.

We present a systematic investigation of jet production at hadron colliders from a phenomenological point of view, with the dual aim of providing a validation of theoretical calculations and guidance to future determinations of parton distributions (...
