Electroweak
corrections
for LHC and LC(multi-parton,
EW gauge-boson and Higgs
production, etc.) :S.
Dittmaier
-> transparencies of presentations
can be found here.
EW corrections -
general issues:
- What is state-of-the-art?
- Where are EW corrections needed at LHC but not yet known?
- Discussion about the consistent use of MRST2004QED PDFs.
(factorization scheme, inclusion of photon-induced processes,
measurement of photon distribution function?)
- EW corrections to pp->Z+jet+X (Kulesza)
- - more?
Precision calculations for
Drell-Yan-like Z and W production:
- Kick-off for a tuned precision comparison of calculations
for Drell-Yan W/Z production
- potentially contributing groups:
WGRAD (Baur/Wackeroth), Dittmaier/Kraemer, HORACE (Montagna et
al.), WINHAC (Jadach et al.), others?
- The detailed setup, input parameters, list of observables is
defined here.
- - more?
Precision calculations for Higgs-boson
production:
- Preliminary results on NLO QCD corrections to pp -> ttA+X
(Dittmaier/Kraemer/Spira)
- Issue of b-quark densities and their combination with "pure
fixed-order calculations"
(5-flavour versus 4-flavour scheme)
- Where are EW corrections needed?
- Which improvements are needed in predictions and where
(resummations etc.)?
- - more?
Background processes and corrections
(QCD+EW) to many-particle production:
- Short review (Binoth/Heinrich)
- Progress toward pp -> tt+jet in NLO QCD. (P. Uwer)
- Signal and backround study for gg -> WW (Duehrssen)
- Radiative corrections to e+e- -> 4fermions (Dittmaier)
- Which are the most pressing background processes known
only in LO? - Joey Hustons's wish list
- - more?
