Next to leading order predictions for pi0 gamma and pi0 pi0 production at the LHC
Abstract
The precise knowledge of photon pair production rates at the LHC is crucial to estimate the sensitivity to a Higgs boson in the intermediate mass range. This background consists not only of prompt photons but also of fake photons stemming from pion decay. We present next to leading order predictions for the invariant mass distributions of pion photon and pion pairs.
