【 摘 要 】

The complete next-to-next-to leading order (NNLO) QCD correction matched with next-to-next-to leading logarithm (NNLL) has been studied for Drell-Yan production via spin-2 particle at the Large hadron collider (LHC). We consider generic spin-2 particle which couples differently to quarks and gluons (non-universal scenario). The threshold enhanced analytical coefficient has been obtained up to third order using the universal soft function and the process dependent form factors at the same order. We performed a detailed phenomenological analysis and gave a prediction for the 13 TeV LHC for the search of such BSM signature. We found that the resummed result gives sizeable corrections over a wide range of invariant mass of the lepton pair. The scale variation also stabilizes at this order and reduces to 4%. As a by-product, we also provide ingredients for third-order soft-virtual (SV) prediction as well as resummation and study the impact on LHC searches.
