The results show that the dependence of the total cross sections on the renormalization scale/1 is suppressed by the corrections, and the NLO corrections enhance the total cross sections of B,. by 52% and of Bc* by 33% when the renormalization scale is taken at μ = 2mb.

For the direct process, we calculate the decay width up to QCD NLO. We find that the decay width for process H → J/ψ(γ ) +γ direct production at the LO is significantly reduced by the NLO QCD corrections. For the indirect process, we calculate the H→γ*γ, with virtual 7 substantially decaying to J/ψ(γ), including all the SM Feynman diagrams. The decay width of indirect production is much larger than the direct decay width. Since it is very clean in experiment, the H →J/ψ( γ) +γ decay could be observable at a 14 TeV LHC and it also offers a new way to probe the Yukawa coupling and New Physics at the LHC.展开更多

We find that a simple approximation of multiplying the LO kinematic distribution with the integrated K-factor is not appropriate for precision study of the e+e-→ q-qˉ-(q-qˉ-= u-uˉ-, c-cˉ-, d-dˉ-, s-sˉ-) processes, since the NLO QCD corrections are phase space dependent. It is necessary to calculate the differential cross sections including full NLO QCD corrections to get reliable results.展开更多
