Precise predictions for V+jets dark matter backgrounds (2017)
Journal Article
Lindert, J., Pozzorini, S., Boughezal, R., Campbell, J., Denner, A., Dittmaier, S., …Williams, C. (2017). Precise predictions for V+jets dark matter backgrounds. The European Physical Journal C, 77(12), Article 829. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-017-5389-1

High-energy jets recoiling against missing transverse energy (MET) are powerful probes of dark matter at the LHC. Searches based on large MET signatures require a precise control of the Z(νν¯)+Z(νν¯)+ jet background in the signal region. This can be...

Precise predictions for the angular coefficients in Z-boson production at the LHC (2017)
Journal Article
Gauld, R., Gehrmann-De Ridder, A., Gehrmann, T., Glover, E., & Huss, A. (2017). Precise predictions for the angular coefficients in Z-boson production at the LHC. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017(11), Article 003. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep11%282017%29003

The angular distributions of lepton pairs in the Drell-Yan process can provide rich information on the underlying QCD production mechanisms. These dynamics can be parameterised in terms of a set of frame dependent angular coefficients, Ai=0,…,7, whic...

NNLO QCD corrections to event orientation in e+e- annihilation (2017)
Journal Article
Gehrmann, T., Glover, E., Huss, A., Niehues, J., & Zhang, H. (2017). NNLO QCD corrections to event orientation in e+e- annihilation. Physics Letters B, 775, 185-189. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2017.10.069

We present a new implementation of the NNLO QCD corrections to three-jet final states and related event-shape observables in electron–positron annihilation. Our implementation is based on the antenna subtraction method, and is performed in the NNLOje... Read More about NNLO QCD corrections to event orientation in e+e- annihilation.

Precise predictions for dijet production at the LHC (2017)
Journal Article
Currie, J., Gehrmann-DeRidder, A., Gehrmann, T., Glover, E., Huss, A., & Pires, J. (2017). Precise predictions for dijet production at the LHC. Physical Review Letters, 119(15), Article 152001. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.119.152001

We present the calculation of dijet production, doubly differential in dijet mass m j j and rapidity difference | y ∗ | , at leading color in all partonic channels at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbative QCD. We consider the long-stan... Read More about Precise predictions for dijet production at the LHC.

Single Jet Inclusive Production for the Individual Jet pT Scale Choice at the LHC (2017)
Journal Article
Currie, J., Glover, E., Gehrmann, T., Gehrmann-de Ridder, A., Huss, A., & Pires, J. (2017). Single Jet Inclusive Production for the Individual Jet pT Scale Choice at the LHC. Acta Physica Polonica B, 48(6), 955-967. https://doi.org/10.5506/aphyspolb.48.955

We study the single jet inclusive cross section up to next-to-next-to leading order in perturbative QCD, implemented in the parton-level event generator NNLOJET. Our results are fully differential in the jet transverse momentum and rapidity, and we a... Read More about Single Jet Inclusive Production for the Individual Jet pT Scale Choice at the LHC.

We report the first calculation of fully differential jet production at leading color in all partonic channels at next-to-next-to leading order in perturbative QCD and compare to the available ATLAS 7 TeV data. We discuss the size and shape of the pe... Read More about Next-to-Next-to Leading Order QCD Predictions for Single Jet Inclusive Production at the LHC.
