W-boson angular coefficients at LHC at high precision

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present state-of-the-art high-precision theory predictions for the dominant angular coefficients parametrizing the spin-correlations in the production and decay of a W-boson produced at transverse momentum larger than 30 GeV. The computation at NNLO QCD and NLO EW accuracy are combined to obtain differential distributions in the W-boson transverse momentum and rapidity. The found results show up to 10 % corrections in certain regions of phase space, while the scale bands are significantly reduced as compared to NLO QCD.
