We extend our previous analysis on inclusive heavy quarkonia hadroproduction to the whole Upsilon(nS) (n=1,2,3) resonance family. We use a Monte Carlo framework with the colour-octet mechanism implemented in the PYTHIA event generator. We…
I present theoretical results for top-pair production as well as for the associated production of top quarks with $W$ bosons. Soft-gluon corrections from resummation are calculated through approximate N$^3$LO and added to fixed-order QCD…

We present theoretical results with soft-gluon corrections for two separate processes: (1) the production of a single top quark in association with a $W$ boson in the Standard Model; and (2) the production of a single top quark in…
