abstract

We consider QCD radiative corrections to the production of a heavy-quark pair in hadronic collisions. We present the computation of the soft-parton contributions at low transverse momentum of the heavy-quark pair up to second order in the QCD coupling $\alpha_s$. These results complete the evaluation at the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) of the transverse-momentum resummation formula for this process. Moreover, they give all the ingredients that are needed for the NNLO implementation of the qT subtraction formalism for heavy-quark production. We discuss the details of the computation and we provide a code that can be used to obtain the relevant results in numerical form.

  1. Towards NNLO QCD predictions for off-shell top-quark pair production and decays

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    The first NNLO QCD prediction for off-shell W+W-bbbar production with massive bottom quarks at the LHC, using a double-pole approximation for the two-loop virtual and an on-shell matching for non-factorisable corrections.

  2. NNLO soft functions for heavy-quark pair production at hadron colliders

    hep-ph 2026-08 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    The paper delivers the first NNLO 0-jettiness soft function for hadronic top-quark pair production and generalises SoftSERVE to massive quarks.

  3. Higgs boson production in association with massive bottom quarks at NNLO+PS

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    First NNLO+PS event generator for b-bbar-H production with massive bottom quarks in the four-flavour scheme, showing NNLO corrections resolve the 4FS/5FS tension.

  4. Next-to-next-to-leading order event generation for $t\bar{t}H$ production with approximate two-loop amplitude

    hep-ph 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    First NNLO+PS (MiNNLOPS) generator for ttH production, combining soft-Higgs and high-energy approximate two-loop amplitudes pointwise, with one-loop-level validation.

  5. MATRIX HAWAII: PineAPPL interpolation grids with MATRIX

    hep-ph 2025-06 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Matrix Hawaii provides a public interface between PineAPPL and MATRIX that generates interpolation grids at NNLO QCD + NLO EW accuracy for a range of LHC processes, with sub-permille interpolation errors.

  6. Mixed QCD-EW corrections to the neutral-current Drell-Yan process

    hep-ph 2024-12 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    Exact mixed QCD-EW corrections at order alpha_s alpha to neutral-current Drell-Yan production are computed and applied to distributions, the forward-backward asymmetry, and dressed leptons.
