Vector-Boson scattering at the LHC: Unraveling the electroweak sector

Vector-boson scattering (VBS) processes probe the innermost structure of electroweak (EW) interactions in the Standard Model (SM), and provide a unique sensitivity for new physics phenomena affecting the gauge sector. In this review, we report on the …

Complete NLO corrections to W+W+ scattering and its irreducible background at the LHC

The process pp → μ+νe+νjj receives several contributions of different orders in the strong and electroweak coupling constants. Using appropriate event selections, this process is dominated by vector-boson scattering (VBS) and has recently been …

Large electroweak corrections to vector-boson scattering at the Large Hadron Collider

For the first time full next-to-leading-order electroweak corrections to off-shell vector-boson scattering are presented. The computation features the complete matrix elements, including all nonresonant and off-shell contributions, to the electroweak …
