Measurement of neutral current Drell-Yan production at 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Tony Kwan
TL;DR: In this paper, a measurement of the forward-backward asymmetry AFB was obtained from the differential cross-section by summing over the cos θ∗ > 0 (forward) and the cos ∗ < 0 (backward) events and taking their difference.

Higgs production in association with top quarks at the LHC

Gavin Kirby
TL;DR: In this article, the suitability of MadGraph for the generation of tb¯¯b events is explored, with a view to simulating this background, in searches for the Standard Model Higgs production and decay process.

NNLO soft function for top quark pair production at small transverse momentum

TL;DR: In this article, the soft function for top quark pair production at the next-to-next-to leading order is analyzed. But the soft functions are not the key ingredients that appear in the factorization formula, which mediates soft gluon exchanges between particles and gives rise to colour correlations.

An inclusive search for supersymmetry in 13 TeV proton-proton collision data

TL;DR: In this article, results are presented from a generic search for strongly produced supersymmetric particles in collisions in the multijet + missing-transverse momentum final state, and the results are interpreted as limits on simplified SUSY models.

Parton distributions for the LHC

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented an updated leading-order, next-to-leading order and next-next-ordering order parton distribution function (MSTW 2008) determined from global analysis of hard-scattering data within the standard framework of leading-twist fixed-order collinear factorisation in the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$¯¯$¯¯¯¯¯

New parton distributions for collider physics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors extract new parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton by global analysis of hard scattering data in the general-mass framework of perturbative quantum chromodynamics.

The Three-loop splitting functions in QCD: The Singlet case

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compute the next-to-next-toleading order (NNLO) contributions to the three splitting functions governing the evolution of unpolarized non-singlet combinations of quark densities in perturbative QCD.

Top++: a program for the calculation of the top-pair cross-section at hadron colliders

TL;DR: The program Top++ calculates the cross-section in (a) fixed order approach with exact next-to-next-to leading order (NNLO) accuracy and (b) by including soft-gluon resummation for the hadronic cross- section in Mellin space with full next- to-next -to-leading logarithmic (NNLL) accuracy.

The total cross section for the production of heavy quarks in hadronic collisions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results of a full calculation of the QCD O(a$) radiative corrections to the total cross-aection for the production of a heavy quark pair.
