KKMC-hh is a hadronic event generator for Z boson production and decays, which includes exponentiated multi-photon radiation and first-order electroweak corrections. We have used KKMC-hh to investigate the role of initial sate radiation (ISR) and initial-final interference (IFI) in precision electroweak analyses at the LHC. We compare the effect of this radiation on angular distributions and forward-backward asymmetry, which are particularly important for the measurement of the weak mixing angle. We discuss the relation of the ISR implementation in KKMC-hh to ISR from parton distribution functions with QED corrections.

Continuing with our investigations of the expected sizes of multiple photon radiative effects in heavy gauge boson production with decay to charged lepton pairs in the context of the precision physics of the LHC, using KK{MC}-hh 4.22 we consider IFI and ISR effects for specific Z/$gamma^*$ Drell-Yan observables measured by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations. With this version of KK{MC}-hh, we have coherent exclusive exponentiation (CEEX) electroweak (EW) exact ${cal O}(alpha^2 L)$ corrections in a hadronic MC and control over the corresponding EW initial-final interference (IFI) effects as well. Specifically, we illustrate the interplay between cuts of the type used in the measurement of $A_{FB}$ and $A_4$ at the LHC and the sizes of the expected responses of the attendant higher order corrections. We find that there are per cent to per mille level effects in the initial-state radiation, fractional per mille level effects in the IFI and per mille level effects in the over-all ${cal O}(alpha^2 L)$ corrections that any treatment of EW corrections at the per mille level should consider. Our results are applicable to current LHC experimental data analyses.
We describe the program KKMC-hh, which calculates Z boson processes in hadronic collisions using coherent exclusive exponentiation (CEEX) with exact second-order photonic corrections at next-to-leading log and first-order weak vertex corrections, inc luding initial and final state photonic radiation and initial-final interference. We describe current applications to precision forward-backward asymmetry calculations for the measurement of the electroweak mixing angle at the LHC.
We consider the implications of low-energy precision tests of parity violation on t-channel mediator models explaining the top AFB excess measured by CDF and D0. Flavor-violating u-t or d-t couplings of new scalar or vector mediators generate at one- loop an anomalous contribution to the nuclear weak charge. As a result, atomic parity violation constraints disfavor at >3 sigma t-channel models that give rise to a greater than 20% AFB at the parton level for M_tt > 450 GeV while not producing too large a top cross-section. Even stronger constraints are expected through future measurements of the proton weak charge by the Q-Weak experiment.
The future 100 TeV FCC-hh hadron collider will give access to rare but clean final states which are out of reach of the HL-LHC. One such process is the $Zh$ production channel in the $( ubar{ u} / ell^{+}ell^{-})gammagamma$ final states. We study the sensitivity of this channel to the $mathcal{O}_{varphi q}^{(1)}$, $mathcal{O}_{varphi q}^{(3)}$, $mathcal{O}_{varphi u}$, and $mathcal{O}_{varphi d}$ SMEFT operators, which parametrize deviations of the $W$ and $Z$ couplings to quarks, or, equivalently, anomalous trilinear gauge couplings (aTGC). While our analysis shows that good sensitivity is only achievable for $mathcal{O}_{varphi q}^{(3)}$, we demonstrate that binning in the $Zh$ rapidity has the potential to improve the reach on $mathcal{O}_{varphi q}^{(1)}$. Our estimated bounds are one order of magnitude better than projections at HL-LHC and is better than global fits at future lepton colliders. The sensitivity to $mathcal{O}_{varphi q}^{(3)}$ is competitive with other channels that could probe the same operator at FCC-hh. Therefore, combining the different diboson channels sizeably improves the bound on $mathcal{O}_{varphi q}^{(3)}$, reaching a precision of $|delta g_{1z}| lesssim 2 times 10^{-4}$ on the deviations in the $ZWW$ interactions.

${cal KK}$MC-hh is a precision event-generator for Z production and decay in hadronic collisions, which applies amplitude-level resummation to both initial and final state photon radiation, including perturbative residuals exact through ${cal O}(alph a^2L)$, together with exact ${cal O}(alpha)$ EW matrix element corrections. We present some comparisons to other programs and results showing the effect of multi-photon radiation for cuts motivated by a recent ATLAS W mass analysis. We also show preliminary untuned comparisons of the electroweak corrections of ${cal KK}$MC-hh to those of HORACE, which includes exact ${cal O}(alpha)$ corrections with resummed final-state photon radiation.
