    The High Energy Radiation Pattern from BFKLex

    Full text link
    We discuss a recent study on high-energy jet production in the multi-Regge limit done with the use of the Monte Carlo event generator BFKLex which includes collinear improvements in the form of double-log contributions. We will show results for the average transverse momentum and azimuthal angle of the final state jets when at least one of them is very forward in rapidity and another one is very backward. We also discuss the introduction of a new observable which accounts for the average rapidity ratio among subsequent emissions.Comment: 6 pages, presented by G.

    W Pair Production at the LHC - I. Virtual O(alpha_s^2) Corrections in the High Energy Limit

    Full text link
    We present the result for the two-loop and the one-loop squared virtual QCD corrections to the W boson pair production in the quark-anti-quark-annihilation channel in the limit where all kinematical invariants are large compared to the mass of the W boson. The infrared pole structure is in agreement with the prediction of Catani's general formalism for the singularities of two loop amplitudes.Comment: 22 pages, 1 figure, references added, typos corrected, final version as publishe

    The NLO N =4 SUSY BFKL Green function in the adjoint representation

    Full text link
    We study the solution of the BFKL equation in the adjoint representation for the N=4 SUSY theory at NLO accuracy. Consistency with the large momentum transfer solution obtained by Fadin and Lipatov is found. We investigate, for large and small values of the momentum transfer, the growth with energy of the Green function, its collinear behaviour and the expansion in azimuthal angle Fourier components.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figure

    Massive particle production to NNLO in QCD

    Full text link
    We discuss the recent derivation of the one-loop squared virtual QCD corrections to the W boson pair production in the quark-anti-quark-annihilation channel in the limit where all kinematical invariants are large compared to the mass of the W boson. In particular, we elaborate on the combined use of the helicity matrix formalism with the Mellin-Barnes representations technique.Comment: Presented at "Loops and Legs in Quantum Field Theory", Sondershausen, 20-25 April 2008, 5 page
