In this paper, we carry out the next-to-leading-order (NLO) studies on $Z \to \Upsilon(1S)+g+g$ via the color-singlet (CS) $b\bar{b}$ state. We find the newly calculated NLO QCD corrections to this process can significantly influence its…

We determine the decay rate to leptons of the ground-state $\Upsilon$ meson and its first radial excitation in lattice QCD for the first time. We use radiatively-improved NRQCD for the $b$ quarks and include $u$, $d$, $s$ and $c$ quarks in…

We study the decay width of the Higgs-boson $H\to gg$ up to order $\alpha_s^5$ under the minimal momentum space subtraction scheme (mMOM-scheme). To improve the accuracy of perturbative QCD prediction, we adopt the principle of maximum…
We calculate the inclusive decay width of $\Upsilon \to l^+ l^-$. Then we get the ratio $R_{\tau\mu}=\Gamma[\Upsilon \to \tau^+\tau^-]/ \Gamma[\Upsilon \to \mu^+\mu^-]$ to ${\cal{O}}(\alpha)$ and ${\cal{O}}(\alpha_s^2)$ within the Standard…
The Principle of Maximum Conformality (PMC) provides scale-fixed perturbative QCD predictions which are independent of the choice of the renormalization scheme, as well as the choice of the initial renormalization scale. In this article, we…
We determine the leading-order nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics (NRQCD) matrix element < O_1 >_Upsilon and the ratio < q^2>_Upsilon, for Upsilon=Upsilon(nS) with n=1, 2, and 3 by comparing the measured values for Gamma[Upsilon -> e^+…
We investigate the renormalization-group scale and scheme dependence of the $H \rightarrow gg$ decay rate at the order N$^4$LO in the renormalization-group summed perturbative theory, which employs the summation of all renormalization-group…

A key issue in making precise predictions in perturbative QCD is the uncertainty in setting the renormalization scale. If in principle, the entire perturbative series is void of this issue, in practice the perturbative corrections are known…
