Second-order QCD corrections to jet production at hadron colliders: The all-gluon contribution

Abstract

We report the calculation of next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections in the purely gluonic channel to dijet production and related observables at hadron colliders. Our result represents the first next-to-next-to-leading order calculation of a massless jet observable at hadron colliders, and opens the path towards precision QCD phenomenology with the LHC. © 2013 American Physical Society.
