Project Details
N3LO QCD predictions for production cross sections of colourless systems in association with a resolved jet (B1a)
Subject Area
Nuclear and Elementary Particle Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Relativity, Fields
Term
since 2019
Project identifier
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 396021762
The goal of this project is to study the production of two colourless final state particles, in particular gauge-boson pairs, or the production of a vector gauge boson or a Higgs boson in association with a jet at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD. A good understanding of these processes is of paramount importance for Standard Model physics, precision Higgs physics, and searches for new phenomena. The predictions will be obtained with slicing methods and the required 1-jettiness soft function will be evaluated.
