Abstract

In this paper we demonstrate the agreement of jet-veto resummation and pT resummation for explaining the W+W- cross sections at run 1 of the LHC and in the future. These two resummation techniques resum different logarithms; however, via reweighting methods, they can be compared for various differential or exclusive cross sections. We find excellent agreement between the two resummation methods for predicting the zero-jet cross section and propose a new reweighting method for jet-veto resummation that can be used to compare other differential distributions. We advocate a cross-channel comparison for the high-luminosity run of the LHC as both a test of QCD and new physics.
