Description
Progress in our ability to compute scattering cross sections has allowed us to obtain prediction for key collider processes at Next-to-next-to-next-to leading order (N3LO) in QCD perturbation theory. I discuss the implications of this progress on our understanding of the Drell-Yan cross section, on differential predictions for Higgs boson observables and on the precision phenomenology program at the LHC in general.
