Three-loop soft function for energetic electroweak boson production at hadron colliders

Abstract We calculate the three-loop soft function for the production of an electroweak boson (Higgs, γ, W ± , Z) with large transverse momentum at a hadron collider. It is the first time a soft function for a three-parton process is computed at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N3LO). As a tec...
