We compute the next-to-leading order O(g) correction to the thermal photon production rate in a QCD plasma. The NLO contributions can be expressed in terms of gauge invariant condensates on the light cone, which are amenable to novel sum…
We employ the QCD kinetic theory, including next-to-leading(NLO) order corrections in coupling constant, to study the evolution of weakly coupled non-Abelian plasmas towards thermal equilibrium. For two characteristic far-from-equilibrium…
We present a computation, within weakly-coupled thermal QCD, of the production rate of low invariant mass ($M^2 \sim g^2 T^2$) dileptons, at next-to-leading order (NLO) in the coupling (which is $O(g^3 e^2 T^2)$). This involves extending…
We report on a recent next-to-leading order perturbative determination of the dilepton rate from a hot QCD plasma for frequency and momentum of the order of the temperature and for much smaller invariant mass $M\sim gT$. We briefly review…
We provide the first next-to-leading-order (NLO) weak-coupling description of the thermalization process of far-from-equilibrium systems in non-abelian gauge theory. We study isotropic systems starting from either over- or under-occupied…
Previous work on soft-gluon resummation for direct photon production is extended to include additional subleading logarithmic terms through O(alpha alpha_s^3) and some representative comparisons are made to experimental results from the…
We present a calculation of the next-to-leading order (O(alpha_s^2 alpha)) QCD corrections to heavy flavor photoproduction with longitudinally polarized beams. We apply our results to study the longitudinal spin asymmetry for the total…
We have calculated the leading-twist next-to-leading order (NLO), i.e., O(alpha_s), correction to the light-cone sum-rules prediction for the electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon. We have used the Ioffe nucleon interpolation current…
We present the first complete calculation of the soft photon self-energy to the next-to-leading order in a hot and/or dense ultrarelativistic plasma in Quantum Electrodynamics (QED). The calculation is performed within the real-time…
We estimate the photon production rate from an SU(3) plasma at temperatures of about 1.1Tc and 1.3Tc. Lattice results for the vector current correlator at spatial momenta k ~ (2-6)T are extrapolated to the continuum limit and analyzed with…
At high baryon chemical potential $\mu_B$, the equation of state of QCD allows a weak-coupling expansion in the QCD coupling $\alpha_s$. The result is currently known up to and including the full next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO)…
We determine the damping rates of slow-moving photons in next-to-leading order hard-thermal-loop perturbation of massless QED. We find both longitudinal and transverse rates finite, positive, and equal at zero momentum. Various divergences,…
The production of two isolated photons in high-energy hadron collisions poses a challenge to perturbative QCD because of large corrections through next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO). We present novel next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order…
Strict next-to-leading order (NLO) results for the dilepton production rate from a QCD plasma at temperatures above a few hundred MeV suffer from a breakdown of the loop expansion in the regime of soft invariant masses M^2 << (pi T)^2. In…
We study next-to-leading order contributions to the soft static fermion dispersion relation in hot QED. We derive an expression for the complete next-to-leading order contribution to the retarded fermion self-energy. The real and imaginary…
Higgs boson production in association with a hard central photon and two forward tagging jets is expected to provide valuable information on Higgs boson couplings in a range where it is difficult to disentangle weak-boson fusion processes…
The next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) corrections in massless perturbative QCD are derived for the parton distributions of the photon and the deep inelastic structure functions F_1^gamma and F_2^gamma. We present the full photonic…
Based on the factorization framework of nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics, we study the associated $J/\psi+c+\bar{c}$ photoproduction process at next-to-leading order in $\alpha_s$ and leading order in the velocity expansion. The total…
We perform a complete next-to-leading order calculation of the non-Abelian electric field correlator in a SU($N_c$) plasma, which encodes properties of the plasma relevant for heavy particle bound state formation and dissociation, and is…
We present the theoretical predictions including the complete next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD corrections to the top-quark pair production in association with a photon at the LHC with center-of-mass system energy of $7 {\rm TeV}$. The…
