Predictions of fiducial cross sections, differential cross sections, and lepton charge asymmetry are presented for the production ofW±bosons with leptonic decay up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbative QCD. Differential cross sections ofW±bosons andWboson lepton charge asymmetry are computed as a function of lepton pseudorapidity for a defined fiducial region inppcollisions ats=13 TeV. Numerical results of fiducialW±cross section predictions are presented with the latest modern PDF models at next-to-leading order (NLO) and NNLO. It is found that the CT14 and NNPDF 3.0 predictions with NNLO QCD corrections are about 4% higher than the NLO CT14 and NNPDF 3.0 predictions while MMHT 2014 predictions with NLO QCD corrections are smaller than its NNLO QCD predictions by approximately 6%. In addition, the NNLO QCD corrections reduce the scale variation uncertainty on the cross section by a factor of 3.5. The prediction of central values and considered uncertainties are obtained using FEWZ 3.1 program.

Abstract We present the production cross section for a lepton-neutrino pair at the Large Hadron Collider computed at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N3LO) in QCD perturbation theory. We compute the partonic coefficient functions of a virtual W± boson at this order. We then use these analytic functions to study the progression of the perturbative series in different observables. In particular, we investigate the impact of the newly obtained corrections on the inclusive production cross section of W± bosons, as well as on the ratios of the production cross sections for W+, W− and/or a virtual photon. Finally, we present N3LO predictions for the charge asymmetry at the LHC.

The two-pion production in pp-collisions has been investigated in exclusive measurements from threshold up to Tp = 1.36 GeV . Total and differential cross sections have been obtained for the channels pnπ+π0, ppπ+π-, ppπ0π0 and also nnπ+π+. For intermediate incident energies Tp > 1 GeV , i.e. in the region, which is beyond the Roper excitation but at the onset of ΔΔ excitation the total ppπ0π0 cross section falls behind theoretical predictions by as much as an order of magnitude near 1.2 GeV, whereas the nnπ+π+ cross section is a factor of five larger than predicted. A model-unconstrained isospin decompostion of the cross section points to a significant contribution of an isospin 3/2 resonance other than the Δ(1232). As a possible candidate the Δ(1600) is discussed.

The application of standard-less PIGE requires the a priori knowledge of the differential cross section of the reaction used for the quantification of each detected light element. Towards this end, a lot of datasets have been published the last few years from several laboratories around the world. The discrepancies found can be resolved by applying a rigorous benchmarking procedure through the measurement of thick target yields. Such a procedure is proposed in the present paper and is applied in the case of the 19F(p,p’γ)19F reaction.

The differential cross section for the Rhodium and Tantalum has been calculated by using the Cross Section Calculations (CSC) in range of energy(1keV-1MeV) . This calculations based on the programming of the Klein-Nashina and Rayleigh Equations. Atomic form factors as well as the coherent functions in Fortran90 language Machine proved very fast an accurate results and the possibility of application of such model to obtain the total coefficient for any elements or compounds.

Two additions impacting tables 3 and 4 in ref. [1] are presented in the following. No significant impact is found for other results or figures in ref. [1].


Differential cross-sections have been measured for the scattering of photons of mean energy 87 MeV by uranium at eight angles in the range from 1.18 to 4.48 mrad and by aluminium, silver, tungsten, lead and uranium at angles of 1.89 and 4.24 mrad, using a narrowly collimated bremsstrahlung beam from the Oxford 110 MeV synchrotron as the primary source of photons. A biased total-absorption Čerenkov counter was used to detect photons with energies near the peak energy of the bremsstrahlung spectrum, and absolute differential cross-sections were measured by comparing counting rates for photons in the primary and scattered beams. The experimental results, with the differential Compton scattering cross-sections of Klein and Nishina subtracted, were analyzed in terms of their variation with angle and atomic number, and can be described as consisting of a sharply peaked angular distribution with absolute cross-sections varying from element to element as Z 4 , together with a uniform distribution varying nearly as Z 2 ; these distributions were identified with Delbruck scattering and with bremsstrahlung from secondary electrons in the scattering target, respectively. The Delbruck scattering cross-section thus determined is slightly more sharply peaked than the cross-section predicted by an approximate theory of Bethe & Rohrlich.

Differential cross sections can be measured as a function of the internal state of a reaction product thanks to the analysis of the Doppler profile of the laser induced fluorescence detection line. This analysis is complicated by two effects: first, the LIF signal intensity depends on the interaction time of the molecule with the laser, and this time depends on the scattering angle, second, the angular and velocity distributions of the beams have non negligible widths. We present here a treatment of these effects in the case of the F+I2 reaction for which we have measured the differential cross section by this technique. The same formalism is also applied to the deduction of the rovibrational distribution of the products from the relative intensities of the LIF lines.
