We present the HiggsPO UFO model for Monte Carlo event generation of electroweak $VH$ and VBF Higgs production processes at NLO in QCD in the formalism of Higgs pseudo-observables (PO). We illustrate the use of this tool by studying the QCD…
We consider extensions of the Standard Model with a number of additional heavy quarks which couple to the Higgs boson via top-like Yukawa interactions. We construct an effective theory valid for a Higgs boson mass which is lighter than…
We present a search for associated Higgs boson production in the process pbar -> W/ZH -> l\pml'\pm + X in ee, e{\mu}, and {\mu}{\mu} final states. The search is based on data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider…
Predictions of fiducial cross sections, differential cross sections and lepton charge asymmetry are presented for the production of $W^{\pm}$ bosons with leptonic decay up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbative QCD.…
We study higher-order QCD corrections for the associated production of a top-antitop quark pair and a $W$ boson ($t{\bar t}W$ production) in proton-proton collisions. We calculate approximate NNLO (aNNLO) and approximate N$^3$LO (aN$^3$LO)…
This thesis presents the evidence, at 3.08 sigma, for the associate production of massive vector bosons (W and Z) in a final state with one lepton, MET and HF-tagged jets, measured with the complete CDF II dataset (9.4fb^-1 of data). The…

We present the combination of searches for the Standard Model Higgs boson, using up to 10 \invfb\ of $p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrts$=1.96 TeV collected with the CDF and \dzero\ detectors at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. The major…
We compute fully differential next-to-leading order QCD cross-sections for Higgs boson production via gluon fusion in the Standard Model. We maintain the full dependence of the cross-sections on the top and bottom quark mass. We find that…
For certain classes of Beyond the Standard Model theories, including composite Higgs models, the coupling of the Higgs to gauge bosons can be different from the Standard Model one. In this case, the multi-boson production via vector boson…
We perform a detailed analysis of next-to-leading order plus parton-shower matching in vector-boson-fusion WW production including leptonic decays. The study is performed in the Herwig 7 framework interfaced to VBFNLO 3, using the…

In electroweak-boson production processes with a jet veto, higher-order corrections are enhanced by logarithms of the veto scale over the invariant mass of the boson system. In this paper, we resum these Sudakov logarithms at…
