Next-to-leading order QCD predictions for top-quark pair production with up to three jets

Journal Article Höche, S. ; Maierhöfer, P. ; Moretti, N. ; ... - European Physical Journal. C, Particles and Fields

We present theoretical predictions for the production of top-quark pairs with up to three jets at the next-to leading order in perturbative QCD. The relevant calculations are performed with Sherpa and OpenLoops. To address the issue of scale choices and related uncertainties in the presence of multiple scales, we compare results obtained with the standard scale HT/2 at fixed order and the MINLO procedure. Analyzing various cross sections and distributions for tt+0,1,2,3 jets at the 13 TeV LHC we find a remarkable overall agreement between fixed-order and MINLO results. The differences are typically below the respective factor-two scale variations, suggestingmore »« less

Matching next-to-leading order predictions to parton showers in supersymmetric QCD

Journal Article Degrande, Céline ; Fuks, Benjamin ; Hirschi, Valentin ; ... - Physics Letters. B

We present a fully automated framework based on the FeynRules and MadGraph5_aMC@NLO programs that allows for accurate simulations of supersymmetric QCD processes at the LHC. Starting directly from a model Lagrangian that features squark and gluino interactions, event generation is achieved at the next-to-leading order in QCD, matching short-distance events to parton showers and including the subsequent decay of the produced supersymmetric particles. As an application, we study the impact of higher-order corrections in gluino pair-production in a simplified benchmark scenario inspired by current gluino LHC searches.

Next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the top quark decay via the flavor-changing neutral-current operators with mixing effects

Journal Article Jiajun, Zhang ; Jun, Gao ; Huaxing, Zhu ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

Detailed calculations of the complete O({alpha}{sub s}) corrections to the top-quark decay widths {Gamma}(t{yields}q+V) with V=g, {gamma}, Z, and q=u, c are presented. Besides describing in detail the calculations in our previous work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 072001 (2009)], we also include the mixing effects of the flavor-changing neutral-current operators for t{yields}q+{gamma} and t{yields}q+Z, which were not considered previously. We show that the mixing effects can either be large or small depending on the values of various anomalous couplings and thereby increase or decrease the branching ratios for t{yields}q+{gamma} and t{yields}q+Z.

Flavor Changing Neutral Coupling Mediated Radiative Top Quark Decays at Next-to-Leading Order in QCD

Journal Article Drobnak, Jure ; Kamenik, Jernej F ; Fajfer, Svjetlana ; ... - Physical Review Letters

We compute the branching ratios for the rare top quark decays t{yields}c{gamma} and t{yields}cZ mediated by effective flavor changing neutral couplings at next-to-leading order in QCD, including the effects due to operator mixing. After resumming contributions of the order of [{alpha}{sub s}log({Lambda}/m{sub t})]{sup n}, where {Lambda} is the scale at which the effective operators are generated, using renormalization group methods, we compute finite matrix element corrections and study the effects of experimental kinematic cuts on the extracted branching ratios. We find that the t{yields}c{gamma} decay can also be used to probe the effective operators mediating t{yields}cg processes, since the lattermore »« less
