Description
In this talk, I will present NNLO QCD predictions for several differential distributions of B-hadrons in top-pair events at the LHC. Among other things, these predictions allow for a precise determination of the top-quark mass. The results also offer positive prospects for extracting heavy-flavour fragmentation functions from LHC data. On the technical side, I will demonstrate how to incorporate fragmentation in a subtraction scheme at NNLO.
