$\texttt{history}$ in the making: A tool for NNLO cross sections
Lukas Simon, Sven Yannick Klein

TL;DR
This paper introduces the development of the 'history' framework, a tool designed to automate NNLO cross section calculations for hadronic processes, validated for certain processes and applied to predict a new observable in ZH production.
Contribution
The paper presents a novel automated framework implementing a fully-local subtraction scheme for NNLO calculations in hadronic collisions, enabling new precision predictions.
Findings
Validated the framework for quark-antiquark processes
Predicted a new observable in ZH production at NNLO
Demonstrated potential sensitivity to new physics effects
Abstract
In these proceedings, we report on our progress in developing the framework, which aims to implement the fully-local Nested Soft-Collinear infrared subtraction scheme for the automated phase-space integration of color-singlet production processes in hadronic collisions at NNLO accuracy. We validate our implementation for quark-antiquark-initiated processes and demonstrate a first application of the tool by predicting a novel observable for the inclusive process , which may offer sensitivity to potential effects of new physics.
