Higher-order corrections to jet cross sections in hadron colliders

Abstract: We describe a general method of calculating the fully differential cross section for the production of jets at next-to-leading order in a hadron collider. This method is based on a 'crossing' of next-to-leading order calculations with all partons in the final state. The method introduces universal crossing functions that allow a modular approach to next-to-leading order calculations for any process with initial state partons. These techniques are applied to the production of jets in association with a vector b… Show more

“…All information is encoded in the hard p T,j spectrum of the signal plus the Z + jet background. The NLO correction to the backgrounds pp → Z/W + jet are known [18]. We show the leading order as well as the NLO cross sections as a function of the p min T,j cut in fig.…”

“…The latter is a particularly clean channel, but Figure 5: The leading order and NLO cross sections for the process pp → Z + jet with a subsequent Z decay into electrons or muons [18]. The factorization and renormalization scales are set equal and varied around a common central value.…”

“…Even for as simple a process as Drell-Yan, the leading order (LO) results seriously underestimate the cross sections. This has led to the incorporation of the next-to-leading order (NLO) or next-to-leading log (NLL) [24,25] results in Monte Carlos codes [24] or event generators such as JETRAD [23]. However, no calculations exist for the higher order QCD corrections to cross sections mediated by a generic contact interaction.…”

“…At NLO, this is relatively straightforward to do and both phase-space slicing [33][34][35][36][37][38][39] and subtraction [40][41][42][43][44][45] techniques which solve the problem were worked out long time ago. However, as is clear from the massive amount of literature on the subject [46,47,, analogous techniques at NNLO are considerably more complicated to develop and complete solutions took much longer to emerge.…”
