Mixed QCD-electroweak corrections to W -boson production in hadron collisions / A. Behring, F. Buccioni, F. Caola, M. Delto, M. Jaquier, K. Melnikov, R. Röntsch. - In: PHYSICAL REVIEW D. - ISSN 2470-0010. - 103:1(2021 Jan 27), pp. 013008.013008-1-013008.013008-40. [10.1103/PhysRevD.103.013008]
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 infrared 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.
