The success of the experimental program at the Tevatron re-inforced the idea that precision physics at hadron colliders is desirable and, indeed, possible. The Tevatron data strongly suggests that one-loop computations in QCD describe hard…

The calculation of one loop integrals at finite temperature requires the evaluation of certain series, which converge very slowly or can even be divergent. Here we review a new method, recently devised by the author, for obtaining…

We numerically compute the two-loop QCD corrections to $Z\gamma$ production at the LHC mediated by light- and heavy-quark box loops. The calculation employs the pipeline of refs. arXiv:2407.18051 and arXiv:2510.18801, which performs Monte…
