We present measurements of the production cross sections times leptonic branching fractions and the transverse momentum distributions of $W$ and $Z$ bosons in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.8$ TeV using data collected with the…
We describe the use of doubly-unintegrated parton distributions in hadron-hadron collisions, using the (z,k_t)-factorisation prescription where the transverse momentum of the incoming parton is generated in the last evolution step. We apply…
We compute the O(alpha_s^2) QCD corrections to the fully differential cross-section pp \to W X \to l \nu X, retaining all effects from spin correlations. The knowledge of these corrections makes it possible to calculate with high precision…
Production of Higgs bosons at the LHC is affected by the contribution of light quarks, that mediate the gg \to Hg transition. Although their impact is suppressed by small Yukawa couplings, it is enhanced by large logarithms of the ratio of…
Pair production of W gauge bosons is an important process at the LHC entering many experimental analyses, both as background in new-physics searches or Higgs measurements and as signal in precision studies and tests of the Standard Model.…
We calculate the strong radiative corrections to the process p pbar -> W(->e nu) g^*(->b bbar). At the Tevatron this process is the largest background to the associated Higgs boson production p pbar -> W(-> e nu) H(-> b bbar). The…
I discuss the effectiveness of soft-gluon resummations in describing higher-order corrections. I present a comparison of recent resummation approaches and their relative successes in approximating complete NNLO corrections. I also discuss…
We perform a detailed study of the various one-loop contributions leading to production of the Standard Model Higgs boson in association with a hard jet. This production mode contributes to the current Tevatron exclusion limit of the…
W bosons can be produced in the channels e+- p -> W+- + X at HERA thus allowing to probe for anomalous trilinear couplings among the gauge bosons. We discuss the NLO QCD corrections to the photoproduction of W bosons with finite transverse…
If studies of electroweak gauge boson final states at the Large Hadron Collider, for Standard Model physics and beyond, are sensitive to effects of the initial state's transverse momentum distribution, appropriate generalizations of QCD…
I present theoretical calculations for Higgs-boson and top-quark production, including high-order soft-gluon corrections. I discuss charged-Higgs production in association with a top quark or a $W$ boson, as well as single-top and…
We study the power corrections for electroweak boson production that are implied by threshold resummation, which we have extended to massive particles produced at measured transverse momentum, $p_T$, and rapidity. Power corrections in the…
In this paper, the soft gluon resummation effect in the Higgs boson plus two-jet production at the LHC is studied. By applying the transverse momentum dependent factorization formalism, the large logarithms introduced by the small total…
An overview of the theoretical status of the top quark and single-jet inclusive production cross sections at the Tevatron is presented. NLO results as well as NNLO-NNLL and higher order threshold expressions derived from resummation…
We describe an alternative approach to the prediction of W and Z transverse momentum distributions based on an extended version of the DDT formula. The resummation of large logarithms, mandatory at small qT, is performed in qT-space, rather…
W bosons can be produced in the channels e+- p --> W+- + X at HERA thus allowing anomalous trilinear couplings among the gauge bosons to be probed. We discuss the next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD corrections to the photoproduction of W…
We present a next-to-leading-order QCD calculation for e+\nu e\mu+\nu\mu jj production in vector-boson fusion, i.e. the scattering of two positively charged W bosons at the LHC. We include the complete set of electroweak leading-order…
We calculate higher-order soft-gluon corrections for the associated production of a top-antitop quark pair and a Higgs boson ($t{\bar t}H$ production) using resummation in one-particle-inclusive (1PI) kinematics. By adding these corrections…
We review theoretical calculations for top-quark production that include complete next-to-leading-order QCD corrections as well as higher-order soft-gluon corrections from threshold resummation. We discuss in detail the differences between…
Inclusive Higgs boson production at large transverse momentum is induced by different production channels. We focus on the leading production through gluon fusion, and perform a consistent combination of the state of the art calculations…
