abstract

We calculate the one-loop non-factorizable QCD corrections to the production and decay of pairs of top quarks at various collider experiments. These non-factorizable corrections interconnect the different production and decay stages of the off-shell top-pair production processes. This in particular affects the invariant-mass distributions of the off-shell top quarks, resulting in a shift of the maximum of the distorted Breit-Wigner distributions. Although the non-factorizable corrections can be large, the actual shift in the mass as determined from the peak position of the corrected Breit-Wigner line-shape is below $100\MeV$.

  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.
