The Top-Antitop Threshold at the ILC: NNLL QCD Uncertainties
read the original abstract
We discuss the top-antitop production cross section near threshold at a future linear collider accounting for the NNLL QCD corrections to the anomalous dimension of the leading S-wave production current computed recently within renormalization-group-improved NRQCD perturbation theory. We argue that the still unknown soft NNLL mixing corrections are negligible so that the NNLL QCD corrections to the total cross section can be considered complete for practical purposes. Based on combined variations of the renormalization and matching scales and the overall size of the perturbative corrections we estimate that the NNLL QCD total cross section has a normalization uncertainty of 5% at threshold. We present results for the total cross section and also for the experimentally more relevant case, when moderate cuts are imposed on the reconstructed top and antitop invariant masses.

Resonance-aware parton-shower matching for off-shell top-antitop production with semi-leptonic decays at electron-positron colliders
A resonance-aware MC@NLO matching procedure preserves top-antitop line shapes when NLO QCD predictions for off-shell ttbar production at e+e− colliders are showered with Pythia8.

Top-Antitop Production and Decay at Threshold at the LHC in QCD Perturbation Theory
NLO+PS generators with resummed Coulomb threshold corrections show that N3LO already captures most of the ATLAS-bin enhancement, finite-width effects are small, and the loosely defined toponium piece is only a few picobarns.

Top-Antitop Production and Decay at Threshold at the LHC in QCD Perturbation Theory
All-order threshold-enhanced QCD corrections in three new NLO+PS generators predict a ~10 pb ttbar cross section in the ATLAS threshold bin and reduce the toponium excess to a perturbative QCD effect.
