Combined Effect of QCD Resummation and QED Radiative Correction to W boson Observables at the LHC
Abstract
Description
A precise determination of the $W$ boson mass at the CERN LHC requires a theoretical calculation in which the effect of the initial-state multiple soft-gluon emission and the final-state photonic correction are simultaneously included. Here, we present such a calculation and discuss its prediction on a few most relevant distributions of the decay leptons.
