We consider the production of Wgamma and Zgamma pairs at the LHC, and report on the fully differential computation of next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) corrections in QCD perturbation theory. The calculation includes leptonic vector-boson decays with the corresponding spin correlations, off-shell effects and final-state photon radiation. We present numerical results for pp collisions at 7 TeV, and compare them with available ATLAS data. In the case of Zgamma production, the impact of NNLO corrections is generally moderate, ranging from 8% to 17%, depending on the applied cuts. In the case of Wgamma production, the NNLO effects are more important, and range from 19% to 26%, thereby improving the agreement of the theoretical predictions with the data. As expected, a veto against jets significantly reduces the impact of QCD radiative corrections.

We present results from CDF and DO on $Wgamma$ and $Zgamma$ productions in $pbar{p}$ collisions at $sqrt{s}=1.8~{rm TeV}.$ The goal of the analyses is to test the non-abelian self-couplings of the $W$, $Z$ and photon, one of the most direct consequen
ces of the $SU(2)_Lotimes U(1)_Y$ gauge symmetry. We present direct measurements of $WWgamma$ couplings and limits on $ZZgamma$ and $Zgammagamma$ couplings, based on $pbar{p}rightarrow ell ugamma + X$ and $pbar{p}rightarrow ellellgamma+X$ events, respectively, observed during the 1992--1993 run of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider.
We consider QCD radiative corrections to $W^+W^-$ production at the LHC and present the first fully differential predictions for this process at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbation theory. Our computation consistently includes the le
ptonic decays of the $W$ bosons, taking into account spin correlations, off-shell effects and non-resonant contributions. Detailed predictions are presented for the different-flavour channel $pptomu^+e^- u_mu {bar u}_e+X$ at $sqrt{s}=8$ and $13$ TeV. In particular, we discuss fiducial cross sections and distributions in the presence of standard selection cuts used in experimental $W^+W^-$ and $Hto W^+W^-$ analyses at the LHC. The inclusive $W^+W^-$ cross section receives large NNLO corrections, and, due to the presence of a jet veto, typical fiducial cuts have a sizeable influence on the behaviour of the perturbative expansion. The availability of differential NNLO predictions, both for inclusive and fiducial observables, will play an important role in the rich physics programme that is based on precision studies of $W^+W^-$ signatures at the LHC.
The tree-level partonic angular distribution of Standard Model $Wgamma$ production possesses a feature known as the Radiation Amplitude Zero (RAZ) where destructive interference causes the cross section to vanish. At the proton level the exact cancel
lation disappears, however, one can find a dip in the central region of the angular distributions, here called the Radiation Valley (RV). In this paper, we show how the sensitivity for $W(ell u)gamma$ resonances can be significantly improved if one focuses on events in the RV region. Using this technique, we find that the LHC could probe a larger range of resonance masses, equivalent to increasing the luminosity by a factor of $2-3$ over conventional searches. The exact increase depends on the spin of the $Wgamma$ resonance and exactly how it couples to electroweak gauge bosons.
We present next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) QCD corrections to the production of three isolated photons in hadronic collisions at the fully differential level. We employ qT subtraction within MATRIX and an efficient implementation of analytic two
-loop amplitudes in the leading-colour approximation to achieve the first on-the-fly calculation for this process at NNLO accuracy. Numerical results are presented for proton-proton collisions at energies ranging from 7 TeV to 100 TeV. We find full agreement with the 8 TeV results of arXiv:1911.00479 and confirm that NNLO corrections are indispensable to describe ATLAS 8 TeV data. In addition, we demonstrate the significance of NNLO corrections for future precision studies of triphoton production at higher collision energies.
In this paper, we investigate the contributions of anomalous quartic gauge couplings (aQGCs) to $Zgamma jj$ production at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the context of Standard Model effective theory (SMEFT). When energy scale is large, the valid
ity of SMEFT becomes an important issue. To ensure the validity, the unitarity bound is applied in a model independent approach, which is found to have significant suppressive effects on the signals of $O_{M_i}$ operators. The kinematic and polarization features of the aQGC signals are also studied. The polarization effect is useful to highlight the signals of $O_{T_i}$ operators. The sensitivity estimates on dimension-8 operators with unitarity bounds at $sqrt{s}=14$ TeV are obtained.
