We determine the value of the strong coupling α_s and study its running over a wide range of scales as probed by the dijet production process at hadron colliders. The analysis is performed using the complete next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) predictions in perturbative QCD and is based on dijet data published by ATLAS and CMS at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV. From a large...

We consider two-loop QCD corrections in the leading color approximation for the production of a heavy electroweak vector boson, $V = \{W^{\pm}, Z,\gamma^\star\}$, in association with two light jets ($Vjj$) at hadron colliders. Leptonic decays of the electroweak boson are included at the amplitude level. We develop an approach that allows us to derive an analytic representation three orders of...

Non-perturbative effects present an important contribution to precise measurements of SM parameters. They are typically studied using Monte Carlo event generators that complement fixed-order predictions with non-perturbative models. These models are of empirical nature and need to be tuned to experimental measurements in order to provide accurate predictions. Once tuned, they are typically...

A key focus of the physics program at the LHC is the study of head-on proton-proton collisions. However, an important class of physics can be studied for cases where the protons narrowly miss one another and remain intact. In such cases, the electromagnetic fields surrounding the protons can interact producing high-energy photon-photon collisions. Alternatively, interactions mediated by the...

Photon pair production is an important benchmark process at the LHC, entering Higgs boson studies and new physics searches. It has been measured to high accuracy, allowing for detailed studies of event shapes in diphoton final states. In this talk, I present the second-order QCD corrections (${\cal O} (\alpha_s^3)$) of the production of a photon pair at non-zero transverse momentum. Comparison...
