Higher-order radiative corrections for $b{\bar b} \rightarrow H^- W^+$

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2018-02-07 v2

Abstract

I present higher-order radiative corrections from collinear and soft gluon emission for the associated production of a charged Higgs boson with a WW boson. The calculation uses expressions from resummation at next-to-leading-logarithm accuracy. From the resummed cross section I derive analytical formulas at approximate NNLO and N3^3LO. Total cross sections are presented for the process bbˉHW+b{\bar b} \rightarrow H^- W^+ at various LHC energies. The transverse-momentum and rapidity distributions of the charged Higgs boson are also calculated.
