We discuss the production of W bosons at large transverse momentum in p pbar collisions at the Tevatron Run I and II. W boson hadroproduction is a process of relevance in testing the Standard Model and in estimates of backgrounds to new…
The Wilson Coefficients for all 4-parton operators which arise in matching QCD to Soft-Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) are computed at 1-loop. Any dijet observable calculated in SCET beyond leading order will require these results. The…
In this presentation, we will focus on a recent applications of the GoSam 2.0 automated framework which goes beyond the official scope of this code, originally designed for one-loop fixed order calculations. In particular, we describe a…
The production of W bosons at large transverse momentum in p pbar collisions is studied. The next-to-leading order cross section in this region is dominated by threshold soft-gluon corrections. The transverse momentum distribution of the W…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of two-loop electroweak corrections at energies Q >> M_W, where logarithms of the type ln(Q/M_W) become dominant. The calculation of the leading and next-to-leading logarithmic terms for massless and…
We compute the third-order correction to the heavy-quark current correlation function due to the emission and absorption of an ultrasoft gluon. Our result supplies a missing contribution to top-quark pair production near threshold and the…
We discuss soft-gluon resummation for the associated production of a single top quark and a Higgs boson ($tqH$ production) in single-particle-inclusive (1PI) kinematics. We present analytical results for the higher-order corrections and…
The lack of convergence of the convolution integrals appearing in next-to-leading-power (NLP) factorization theorems prevents the applications of existing methods to resum power-suppressed large logarithmic corrections in collider physics.…
The $tW$ associated production has the second-largest cross section among three single top production channels. A complete study of NNLO QCD corrections to $tW$ production is still missing in literature. We present the calculation of part…
We evaluate the one-loop soft current for the emission of two soft gluons or a soft quark-anti-quark pair in massless Quantum Chromodynamics. The results are exact in dimensional regularisation up to a single Feynman integral. Two terms of…
All (un)polarized transverse momentum dependent functions (TMDs), both distribution and fragmentation functions, are defined with the same universal soft function, which cancels spurious rapidity divergences within an individual TMD and…
I discuss and compare several approaches to higher-order calculations of top quark production. I study the relative effectiveness of the approaches in approximating the exact NNLO results for the top-pair total cross section and highlight…
In this talk, we discuss the soft-gluon resummation for a pair of Higgs bosons in the dominant gluon fusion channel to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic (N$^3$LL) accuracy. Through the study, we achieve sub-percent level accuracy…
We derive a factorization formula for the production of pairs of heavy coloured particles in hadronic collisions near the production threshold that establishes factorization of soft and Coulomb effects. This forms the basis for a combined…

We resum a class of large Sudakov logarithms affecting Higgs boson production in the exclusive one-jet bin at the LHC. We extend previous results by calculating the full one-loop soft function for this process, which extends the accuracy of…
We perform resummation of soft gluon corrections to the total cross section for the process $pp \to t\bar{t}H$. The resummation is carried out at next-to-leading-logarithmic (NLL) accuracy using the Mellin space technique, extending its…
