A large fraction of top quark events in $\pp$ collisions at $1.8\ \TeV$ will contain additional soft hadronic jets from gluon bremsstrahlung off the quarks and gluons in the hard processes $\qq, gg \to \tt \to \bb \ww$. These extra jets can…
We present calculations of higher-order QCD and electroweak (EW) corrections to the associated production of a top-antitop quark pair and a $Z$ boson, i.e. $t{\bar t}Z$ production, in proton collisions. We find that the contributions from…
We present the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) corrections to the total cross section for (pseudo-) scalar Higgs boson production using an alternative method than those used in previous calculations. All QCD partonic subprocesses have…
The reconstruction of top-quark pair-production ($t\bar{t}$) events is a prerequisite for many top-quark measurements. We use a deep neural network, trained with Monte-Carlo simulated events, to reconstruct $t\bar{t}$ decays in the…
We generalize and update our former top quark mass calibration framework for Monte Carlo (MC) event generators based on the $e^+e^-$ hadron-level 2-jettiness $\tau_2$ distribution in the resonance region for boosted $t\bar t$ production,…
We present predictions for $t \bar t$ and $t \bar t H$ production and decay at future lepton colliders including non-resonant and interference contributions up to next-to-leading order (NLO) in perturbative QCD. The obtained precision…
We present the next-to-leading order QCD corrected total cross sections and the distributions of the transverse momenta of the final anti-bottom-quark, top-quark and charged Higgs-boson for the processes of $p\bar p/pp \to t\bar b H^-+X$ in…
In this Letter, we present for the first time a calculation of the complete next-to-leading order corrections to the $gg \to ZH$ process. We use the method of small mass expansion to tackle the most challenging two-loop virtual amplitude,…
The concept of new methodology of adding QCD NLO corrections in the initial state Monte Carlo parton shower (hard process part) is tested numerically using, as an example, the process of the heavy boson production at hadron--hadron…
The next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD radiative corrections to W+W- production at hadron colliders are well understood. We combine NLO perturbative QCD calculations with soft-gluon resummation of threshold logarithms to find a next-to-next-to…
I briefly discuss some theoretical aspects of top mass measurements at the LHC. In particular, I illustrate a recent theoretical study performed using next-to-leading order (NLO) calculations interfaced to shower generators (NLO+PS) of…
We present a next-to-leading order calculation of heavy flavour production in hadronic collisions that can be interfaced to shower Monte Carlo programs. The calculation is performed in the context of the POWHEG method. It is suitable for…
This thesis studies gluon saturation in hadronic matter at high energy by calculating next-to-leading order (NLO) corrections to inclusive and diffractive deep inelastic scattering cross sections in the Color Glass Condensate (CGC)…
The associated production of a Higgs boson with a top-antitop quark pair is a crucial process at the LHC since it allows for a direct measurement of the top-quark Yukawa coupling. We present the computation of the radiative corrections to…
We present a method, based on the positive weight next-to-leading-order matching formalism (POWHEG), to simulate photon production processes at next-to-leading-order (NLO). This technique is applied to the simulation of diphoton production…
We present a next-to-leading order computation in QCD of one-jet and two-jet cross sections in polarized hadronic collisions. Our results are obtained in the framework of a general formalism that deals with soft and collinear singularities…
We report on the calculation of the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the production of top--anti-top quark pairs in association with a hard jet at the Tevatron and at the LHC. We present results for the t tbar + jet cross section…
Using a Generic spin basis, we present a general formalism of one-loop radiative corrections to the spin correlations in the top quark pair production at the Next Linear Collider, and calculate the O(\alpha_s) QCD corrections under the soft…
We give an overview of the status of theoretical predictions for single-top production in the Standard Model. We focus in particular on recent developments, including calculations of off-shell effects at next-to-leading order beyond the…
The study of the properties of the top quark is one of the main goals of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) physics program. The experimental precision expected at the LHC requires the calculation of several top-quark related observables…
