We review the most recent results from experiments studying systems containing charmed quarks. The selection reflects the presenter's bias, and there is an emphasis on decays of open charm. We discuss precision measurements of various…
We report on recent progress for the QCD corrections to top quark pair plus jet production. In particular, we discuss a recent computation for the two-loop master integrals associated to a two-loop five-point pentagon-box integral…
The QCD-coupling is a necessary input in the computation of many observables, and the parametric error on input parameters can be a dominant source of uncertainty. The coupling can be extracted by comparing high order perturbative…

The determination of the charm quark mass is now possible to 1% from QCD, with lattice QCD pushing the error down below 1%. I will describe the ingredients of this approach and how it can achieve this accuracy. Results for quark mass…

We determine the anomalous dimensions of the gluon, Faddeev-Popov ghost and quark in the minimal MOM scheme to five loops for a general colour group when Quantum Chromodynamics is fixed in a linear covariant gauge. The quark mass anomalous…

The one-loop QCD heavy quark potential is computed to order v^2 in the color singlet and octet channels. Several errors in the previous literature are corrected. To be consistent with the velocity power counting, the full dependence on |p'…
Using next-to-leading order perturbative QCD, we find that the charm contribution to the atmospheric lepton fluxes dominates over the conventional ones from pi and K decays for energies higher than 10^5 GeV. We also discuss theoretical…
