“…While the formalism can be applied to any reference frame, in the following, we will work in the center-of-mass frame of the two incoming partons, which are not only good for demonstration purposes, and are also adopted in many existing calculations. For example, this corresponds to the PIM kinematics in [33,59,60] for tt production, in [61,62] for stop pair production, and in [63,64] for ttH production. Schematically, we are considering partonic processes of the form…”
