Understand
We resum a class of large Sudakov logarithms affecting Higgs boson production in the exclusive one-jet bin at the LHC.
- We extend previous results by calculating the full one-loop soft function for this process, which extends the accuracy of the resummation to include the leading three logarithmic corrections at each order in the QCD coupling constant.
- We match this result to the next-to-leading order cross section and present a detailed numerical study assuming realistic LHC cuts.
- Careful attention is paid to the matching procedure, and to the theoretical uncertainties induced by residual scale variation.
