We propose a general derivation of differential cross section in quark-quark scatterings at fixed impact parameters. The derivation is well defined and free of ambiguity in the conventional one. The approach can be applied to a variety of partonic and hadronic scatterings in low or high energy particle collisions.

The top quark, discovered in 1995 by the CDF and D0 collaborations at the Tevatron proton antiproton collider at Fermilab, has undergone intense studies in the last 20 years. Currently, CDF and D0 converge on their measurements of top-antitop quark p
roduction cross sections using the full Tevatron data sample. In these proceedings, the latest results on inclusive and differential measurements of top-antitop quark production cross sections at the Tevatron are reported.
We study the nuclear modification factors RAA and RCP of the high transverse momentum 5<pt<60 GeV/c distribution of muons in Pb--Pb collisions at LHC energies. We consider two pseudo-rapidity ranges covered by the LHC experiments: $|eta|<2.5$ and $2.
5<eta<4$. Muons from semi-leptonic decays of heavy quarks (c and b) and from leptonic decays of weak gauge bosons (W and Z) are the main contributions to the muon pt distribution above a few GeV/c. We compute the heavy quark contributions using available pQCD-based programs. We include the nuclear shadowing modification of the parton distribution functions and the in-medium radiative energy loss for heavy quarks, using the mass-dependent BDMPS quenching weights. Muons from W and Z leptonic decays, that dominate the yield at high pt, can be used as a medium-blind reference to observe the medium-induced suppression of beauty quarks.
An empirical model for the $pp$ elastic differential cross section is proposed. Inspired by early work by Barger and Phillips, we parametrize the scattering amplitude in building blocks, comprising of two exponentials with a relative phase, supplemen
ting the dominant term at small $-t$ with the proton form factor. This model suitably applies to LHC7 and ISR data, enabling to make simple predictions for higher LHC energies and to check whether asymptotia might be achieved.
We present predictions for the total ttbar production cross section sigma_ttbar at the Tevatron and LHC, which include the resummation of soft logarithms and Coulomb singularities through next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic order, and ttbar bound-sta
te contributions. Resummation effects amount to about 8 % of the next-to-leading order result at Tevatron and about 3 % at LHC with 7 TeV centre-of-mass energy. They lead to a significant reduction of the theoretical uncertainty. With m_t=173.3 GeV, we find sigma_ttbar=7.22^{+0.31+0.71}_{-0.47-0.55} pb at Tevatron and sigma_ttbar=162.6^{+7.4+15.4}_{-7.5-14.7} at the LHC, in good agreement with the latest experimental measurements.
Over the past several years the STAR experiment at RHIC has been contributing to our understanding of the proton structure. Through its instrumentation, STAR is well equipped to measure $W rightarrow u + e$ in $sqrt{s}$ = 500/510 GeV proton-proton c
ollisions at mid-rapidity (-1.1 $le eta le $ 1.1) . The $W$ cross section ratio ($W^+/W^-$) is sensitive to unpolarized $u$, $d$, $bar{u}$, and $bar{d}$ quark distributions. At these kinematics, STAR is able to measure the quark distributions near Bjorken-$x$ values of 0.1. The RHIC runs in 2011, 2012 and 2013 at $sqrt{s}$ = 500/510 GeV saw a significant increase in delivered luminosity from previous years. This resulted in a total data sample being collected of about 352 pb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. The increased statistics will lead to a higher precision measurement of the $W^+/W^-$ cross section ratio than was previously measured by STARs 2009 run, as well as allow for a measurement of its $eta$ dependence at mid-rapidity. Presented here is an update of the $W$ cross section ratio analysis from the STAR 2011, 2012 and 2013 runs.
