Antenna subtraction with massive fermions at NNLO: Double real initial-final configurations

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-11 v1

Abstract

We derive the integrated forms of specific initial-final tree-level four-parton antenna functions involving a massless initial-state parton and a massive final-state fermion as hard radiators. These antennae are needed in the subtraction terms required to evaluate the double real corrections to ttˉt\bar{t} hadronic production at the NNLO level stemming from the partonic processes qqˉttˉqqˉq\bar{q}\to t\bar{t}q'\bar{q}' and ggttˉqqˉgg\to t\bar{t}q\bar{q}.
