Abstract: A measurement is presented of differential cross sections for the Higgs boson (H) production in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=8 TeV. The analysis exploits the H to gamma gamma decay in data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 inverse femtobarns collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The cross section is measured as a function of the kinematic properties of the diphoton system and of the associated jets. Results corrected for detector effects are compared with predictions at next-to-leading order and next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics, as well as with predictions beyond the standard model. For isolated photons with pseudorapidities abs(eta) 1/3 and >1/4, the total fiducial cross section is 32 +/- 10 fb.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the differential cross sections of Z bosons produced in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV and decaying to muons and electrons, and compared the results to theoretical predictions using fixed order, resummed, and parton shower calculations.

TL;DR: In this article, the Lambda(b) differential production cross section and the cross-section ratio for anti-Lambda (b) versus Lambda (c) production are measured as functions of transverse momentum and rapidity in pp collisions at 7 TeV using data collected by the LHC.
