Diphoton amplitudes in three-loop quantum chromodynamics
American Physical Society 126:11 (2021)
Abstract:
We consider the three-loop scattering amplitudes for the production of a pair of photons in quark-antiquark annihilation in QCD. We use suitably defined projectors to efficiently calculate all helicity amplitudes. We obtain relatively compact analytic results that we write in terms of harmonic polylogarithms or, alternatively, multiple polylogarithms of up to depth three. This is the first calculation of a three-loop four-point scattering amplitude in full QCD.Noncancellation of infrared singularities in collisions of massive quarks

Mixed QCD-electroweak corrections to W-boson production in hadron collisions
American Physical Society 103:1 (2021)
Abstract:
We compute mixed QCD-electroweak corrections to the fully-differential production of an on-shell W boson. Decays of W bosons to lepton pairs are included in the leading order approximation. The required two-loop virtual corrections are computed analytically for arbitrary values of the electroweak gauge boson masses. Analytic results for integrated subtraction terms are obtained within a soft-collinear subtraction scheme optimized to accommodate the structural simplicity of infra-red singularities of mixed QCD-electroweak contributions. Numerical results for mixed corrections to the fiducial cross section of pp→W+→l+ν and selected kinematic distributions in this process are presented.Mixed QCD-electroweak corrections to on-shell Z production at the LHC
