abstract

The perturbative description of certain differential distributions across a wide kinematic range requires the matching of fixed-order perturbation theory with resummation of large logarithmic corrections to all orders. We present precise matched predictions for transverse-momentum distributions in Higgs boson (H) and Drell-Yan pair (DY) production as well as for the closely related ${\phi^{*}_\eta}$ distribution at the LHC. The calculation is exclusive in the Born kinematics, and allows for arbitrary fiducial selection cuts on the decay products of the colour singlets, which is of primary relevance for experimental analyses. Our predictions feature very small residual scale uncertainties and display a good convergence of the perturbative series. A comparison of the predictions for DY observables to experimental data at 8 TeV shows a very good agreement within the quoted errors.

  1. Dihadron Angular Correlations in the $e^+e^-$ Collision

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The paper derives the first complete O(alpha_s^2) analytic QCD corrections to the dihadron angular separation distribution in e+e- annihilation, with verified cancellation of infrared poles.

  2. Impact of Z-boson transverse-momentum resummation on PDF determination

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    N3LL' resummation is required to reconcile the 13 TeV ATLAS Z-pT spectrum with global PDF fits, but lowering the pT cut below 30 GeV is not yet supported.
