• Study top mass dependence at NLO_FTapprox
• Compare to impact of HEJ (see slide 6)

Input parameters and settings

• $\sqrt{s} = 13.6\,\mathrm{TeV}$
• PDF set: PDF4LHC21_40
• $M_\mathrm{H} = 125.09\,\mathrm{GeV}$
• $m_\mathrm{t} = 172.5\,\mathrm{GeV}$
• $M_\mathrm{Z} = 91.1876\,\mathrm{GeV}$, $\Gamma_\mathrm{Z} = 2.4952\,\mathrm{GeV}$
• $M_\mathrm{W} = 80.379\,\mathrm{GeV}$, $\Gamma_\mathrm{W} = 2.085\,\mathrm{GeV}$
• G-mu scheme with $\alpha_{G_\mu} = 0.75652103079904\ldots \times 10^{-2}$ (from $G_\mu = 1.16638 \times 10^{-5}\,\mathrm{GeV}^{-2}$)
• central scale choice: $\mu_0^2 = (M_\mathrm{H}/2) \, \sqrt{ (M_\mathrm{H}/2)^2 + p_\mathrm{T,H}^2 }$ (Eq.(2) of 1506.02660)

Event definition/selection:

• jets: anti-kT with $R=0.4$
• $p_{\mathrm{T},j} > 30\,\mathrm{GeV}$ only_30_ok_need_20
• $|\eta_j| < 4.7$ rapidity_or_pseudo-raidity
• $m_{jj} > 300\,\mathrm{GeV}$
• $|\Delta y_{jj}| > 2$ rapidity_or_pseudo-raidity
• no_rapidity_selection_on_higgs

Histograms and binning:

• single-differential $m_{jj}$: [300, 500, 700, 900, 1100, ∞]
• single-differential $p_\mathrm{T,H}$: [0, 80, 120 ,260, 500, 850, ∞]
• single-differential $\Delta\phi_{jj}$: [0, π/4, π/2, π]
• single-differential $\Delta y_{jj}$: [2,4,5,6,7,∞]
• double-differential ($m_{jj} \times p_\mathrm{T,H}$): [300,500,700,900,1100,∞] × [0,80,120,260,500,850,∞]
• double-differential ($m_{jj} \times \Delta\phi_{jj}$): [300,500,700,900,1100,∞] × [0, π/4, π/2, 3π/4, π] which_one
• double-differential ($m_{jj} \times \Delta y_{jj}$): [300,500,700,900,1100,∞] × [2-9] (in steps of 0.1?!) is_there_a_deltay_bin_0-2
• double-differential ($p_\mathrm{T,H} \times \Delta y_{jj}$): [0, ..(10).. 850, ∞] × [2-9] (in steps of 0.1?!) [which one? 200 GeV or “with steps of 50 GeV in Mjj”; is there a deltay bin 0-2?]

STXS binning (these histograms require an additional cut of $m_{jj} > 350\,\mathrm{GeV}$) y_H| <2.5"??

• triple-differential ($m_{jj} \times p_\mathrm{T,H} \times \Delta\phi_{jj}$): [350, 700, 1000, 1500, ∞] × [0, 200, ∞] × [0, π/2, π]
