- Much more ....
•• Hard collisions of quarks and gluons: QCD affects all aspects of the physics
Some examples...

CDF Run II Preliminary
•• Excellent agreement of data with QCD predictions
•• Comparison with NLO cross sections. NNLO calculations in the works
Corrections to Drell Yan distributions
NNLO corrections to lepton distributions in qq→γ∗/Z→l+l− and W→lν: Melnikov, Petriello (2006)
integrated lepton rapidity spectrum, |η| < ηc lepton pT spectrum, pT > pT,c
Bands for factor 2 scale variation at LO, NLO, and NNLO
•• Scale uncertainties well below 1% for NNLO
•• Larger variation for pT,l > mZ/2: calculation is NLO only
•• DY cross section known well enough for luminosity monitor at LHC
SUSY searches
Look for pair production of squarks and/or gluinos via decay chain to jets and LSP (χ01), e.g.
q → qχ02 → qχ0
1Z→ qχ01QQ, qχ0
1l+l−, qχ01νν
g → qq→ qχ01q
resulting in several jets plus missing ET (+ charged leptons)
Highest squark/gluino mass reach in the 4 jet + /ET search. Define
Me f f = pT,1 + pT,2 + pT,3 + pT,4 + /ET
and require
pT,1 > 100 GeV, pT,i > 50 GeV, /ET > max(100 GeV, 0.2 Meff)
SUSY signal is enhanced cross section at large Me f f
For SUSY signal cross sections→ talk by M. Kramer
Dieter Zeppenfeld QCD at colliders 4
Backgrounds to SUSY searches
SUSY signal competes with SM backgrounds: Z + 4 jets, Z→νν; W + 4 jets, W→(l)ν etc.
Parton shower approach to multi-jet processes severely underestimatesbackgrounds
- histogram: PYTHIA simulation
- black dots: expected SUSY signal
- Z + 4 jets, Z→νν backgroundsimulated with full tree level ma-trix elements
Need full QCD ME calculations for multi-jet cross sections in SM if we want to prove newphysics signals. Available at LO via Madgraph, Alpgen, Sherpa, ...Another example: Higgs physics...
Goals of Higgs Physics
Higgs Search = search for dynamics of SU(2)×U(1) breaking
•• Discover the Higgs boson
•• Measure its couplings and probemass generation for gauge bosons and fermions
Fermion masses arise from Yukawa couplings via Φ†→(0, v+H√2

•• WWH and ZZH couplings are generated
•• Higgs couples propotional to mass: coupling strength = 2 m2V/v within SM
Measurement of WWH and ZZH couplings is essential for identification of H as agent ofsymmetry breaking: Without a v.e.v. such a trilinear coupling is impossible at tree level

Most measurements can be performed at the LHC with statistical accuracies on the measuredcross sections times decay branching ratios,σ× BR, of order 10% (sometimes even better).

Statistical and systematic errors at LHC
Assumed errors in fits tocouplings:
•• QCD/PDF uncertainties
- ±5% for WBF
- ±20% for gluon fu-sion
•• luminosity/acceptanceuncertainties

Errors from parton distributions
Modern parton distribution functions (pdf’s) provide information on uncertainties of theirdetermination from data=⇒ can determine pdf errors of Higgs cross section predictions

QCD corrections for Higgs production

Applied cuts for LHC predictions
The cross section diverges in collinear and soft regions
• INCLUSIVE cuts to define H + 2 jets
pT j > 20 GeV |η j| < 5 R j j =√(η j1 − η j2
)2+(φ j1 −φ j2
)2> 0.6
• WBF cuts to enhance WBF over gluon fusionIn addition to the previous ones, we impose
|η j1 − η j2 | > 4.2 η j1 · η j2 < 0 m j j > 600 GeV
– the two tagging jets must be well separated in rapidity
– they must reside in opposite detector hemispheres
– they must possess a large dijet invariant mass.

Azimuthal angle correlations
Tell-tale signal for non-SM coupling is azimuthal angle between tagging jets
Dip structure at 90◦ (CP even) or 0/180◦ (CP odd) only depends on tensor structure of HVVvertex. Very little dependence on form factor, LO vs. NLO, Higgs mass etc.

Conclusions
•• The LHC will push the energy frontier up by another order of mag-nitude.
•• Establishing new physics signals at the LHC requires good under-standing of QCD predictions for signals and backgrounds
•• LHC will observe a SM-like Higgs boson in multiple channels, with5 . . . 20% statistical errors=⇒ great source of information on Higgs couplings
•• Higgs boson CP properties and structure of the HVV and Hggvertices can be obtained from jet-angular correlations in WBF andgluon fusion
•• An exciting new era of particle physics starts in 2008.
