We study the resummation of large logarithmic perturbative corrections to the partonic cross sections relevant for di-hadron production in hadronic collisions, H1 H2 -> h1 h2 X, at high invariant mass of the produced hadron pair. These…
I present a systematic approach to calculating soft-gluon corrections through next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order for arbitrary hard-scattering cross sections. Using a unified approach, master formulas are derived for processes with both…

The cross section for top quark pair production factorizes at small transverse momentum of the heavy quark pair, $q_T$. One of the key ingredients that appears in the factorization formula is the soft function, which mediates soft gluon…
I discuss charged-Higgs production via two different processes: in association with a top quark, and in association with a $W$ boson. I present total cross sections and differential distributions that include higher-order corrections from…
We calculate the soft-gluon corrections for $tW$ production to all orders. The soft limit is defined in the pair invariant mass or one particle inclusive kinematic schemes. We find that at NLO the contribution of the soft-gluon effect…
In this paper, a combined resummation of soft and Coulomb corrections is performed for the associated production of the Higgs boson with a top quark pair at the LHC. We illustrate the similarities and critical differences between this…

We review the resummation of threshold logarithms for heavy quark, dijet, direct photon, and W boson production cross sections in hadronic collisions. Beyond leading logarithms the resummed cross section is sensitive to the color exchange…
Pair production of massive coloured particles in hadron collisions is accompanied by potentially large radiative corrections related to the suppression of soft gluon emission and enhanced Coulomb exchange near the production threshold. We…
We reexamine the top quark production cross section at the Tevatron and LHC, in the light of recent progress on the resummation of logarithmic soft gluon corrections. We find that resummation effects are much smaller than previously…
