Soft anomalous dimensions for single-top production at three loops

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2019-05-01 v2

Abstract

I present results for soft anomalous dimensions in single top-quark production processes through three loops. I first discuss the cusp anomalous dimension with one massive and one massless line at three loops. I then calculate the three-loop soft anomalous dimension for tWtW production and for related processes with new physics such as tZtZ, tγt\gamma, and tHtH^- production. This is followed by results at two and three loops for the soft anomalous dimension matrix in ss-channel single-top production and, finally, in tt-channel single-top production. These new results are needed for soft-gluon resummation at N3^3LL accuracy and for calculations of soft-gluon corrections at N3^3LO.
