Abstract

Using the MC Herwiri1.031, we present the current status of the comparisons with LHC data of the predictions of our approach of exact amplitude-based resummation for precision QCD calculations.

Highlights

  • The successful running of the LHC during 2010-2012 has resulted in large data samples on SM standard candle processes such as heavy gauge boson production and decay to lepton pairs for ATLAS and CMS. Such data signal the arrival of the era of precision QCD, with predictions for QCD processes at the total precision tag of 1% or better, and make more manifest the need for exact, amplitude-based resummation of large higher order effects as discussed in Refs

  • We present here comparisons of the attendant application of exact amplitude-based resummation theory to recent data from the LHC

  • With our eye on a provable theoretical precision tag we have developed the QCD ⊗ QED resummation theory in Refs. [2] for (1)

Summary

Introduction

The successful running of the LHC during 2010-2012 has resulted in large data samples on SM standard candle processes such as heavy gauge boson production and decay to lepton pairs (samples exceeding 107 of such events for Z/γ∗ production) for ATLAS and CMS. Such data signal the arrival of the era of precision QCD, with predictions for QCD processes at the total precision tag of 1% or better, and make more manifest the need for exact, amplitude-based resummation of large higher order effects as discussed in Refs.
