QCD corrections to associated production of tbar tγ at hadron colliders
read the original abstract
We report on the next-to-leading order(NLO) QCD computation of top-quark pair production in association with a photon at the Fermilab Tevatron RUN II and CERN Large Hadron Collider(LHC). We describe the impact of the complete NLO QCD radiative corrections to this process, and provide the predictions of the leading order(LO) and NLO integrated cross sections, distributions of the transverse momenta of top-quark and photon for the LHC and Tevatron, and the LO and NLO forward-backward top-quark charge asymmetries for the Tevatron. We investigate the dependence of the LO and NLO cross sections on the renormalization/factorization scale, and find the scale dependence of the LO cross section is obviously improved by the NLO QCD corrections. The K-factor of the NLO QCD correction is $0.977(1.524)$ for the Tevatron(LHC).
