We compute the next-to-leading order corrections to the cross section for the production of electroweak gauge bosons ($Z$, $W^\pm$ and $\gamma^*$) with large transverse momentum in double (longitudinally) polarized hadronic collisions. The…
Recently, a measurement of the vector-boson scattering process with same-sign W bosons has been reported by the CMS collaboration. Hence it is of prime importance to have precise predictions with next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy. In…
We present a measurement of the coefficient alpha_2 of the leptonic polar-angle distribution from W boson decays, as a function of the W transverse momentum. The measurement uses an 80+/-4 pb^{-1} sample of proton-antiproton collisions at…
We perform a study of $W$-boson production in polarized proton-proton collisions through next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbative QCD. This calculation is required to extend the extraction of polarized parton distribution…
We calculate higher-order soft-gluon corrections for the associated production of a top-antitop quark pair and a $Z$ boson ($t{\bar t}Z$ production) in proton-proton collisions. We find that these corrections are numerically dominant and…
We present QCD predictions for the transverse momentum (q_T) distribution of the Higgs boson at the LHC. At small q_T the logarithmically-enhanced terms are resummed to all orders up to next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. The…
We study the production of a Higgs boson in association to a top-antitop pair at the Large Hadron Collider. We show how precise predictions for the differential distributions with respect to the transverse momentum of the Higgs boson, to…
In this paper we present the NLO QCD + NLO EW corrections to the $ZZZ$ production with subsequent $Z$-boson leptonic decays at the LHC by adopting the improved narrow width approximation, which takes into account off-shell contributions and…
We present the first combination of NNLO QCD and NLO EW corrections for vector-boson pair production at the LHC. We consider all final states with two, three and four charged leptons, including resonant and non-resonant diagrams, spin…
Precise and accurate Standard Model predictions are needed for polarised weak bosons in LHC processes, in order to perform template fits of data and to enhance the sensitivity to possible new-physics effects. We have proposed a general…
We consider QCD radiative corrections to Standard Model Higgs boson production in association with a W boson in hadron collisions. We present a fully exclusive calculation up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in QCD perturbation…
We present the most precise value for the Higgs boson cross-section in the gluon-fusion production mode at the LHC. Our result is based on a perturbative expansion through N$^3$LO in QCD, in an effective theory where the top-quark is…
We study the production of W bosons at large transverse momentum in p pbar collisions. We show that the next-to-leading order cross section at large transverse momentum is dominated by threshold soft-gluon corrections. We add…
Studying the properties of the W boson plays a key role in precision tests of the Standard Model. The key measurements performed over the last decade will be reviewed. W-pair and single-W cross-sections and W decay branching fractions are…
The successful LHC operation suggests going beyond the search of excess of events for the quest of new physics. We demonstrate that the eight multipole parameters describing the spin state of the W or Z bosons are able to disentangle their…
The production of weak gauge bosons, $W^{\pm}$ and $Z$, are at the core of the LHC precision measurement program. Their transverse momentum spectra as well as their pairwise ratios are key theoretical inputs to many high-precision analyses,…
A precision measurement of the $W$-boson production cross-section is performed using the $W \to \mu\nu$ decay channel, based on a sample of proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV and…
We present perturbative predictions for the transverse momentum (q_T) distribution of the Higgs boson at the LHC. At small q_T the logarithmically-enhanced terms are resummed to all orders up to next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy.…
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…
The determination of the $W$-boson mass through an analysis of the decay charged-lepton transverse momentum distribution has a sizable uncertainty due to the imperfect knowledge of the relevant parton distribution functions (PDFs). In this…
