Dichroic subjettiness ratios to distinguish colour flows in boosted boson tagging

Gavin P. Salam, Lais Schunk, Gregory Soyez

-subjettiness ratios are in wide use for tagging heavy boosted objects, in particular the ratio of 2-subjettiness to 1-subjettiness for tagging boosted electroweak bosons. In th…

Nucleon tomography. What can we do better today than Rutherford 100 years ago?

N. G. Stefanis, Constantia Alexandrou, Tanja Horn +2

A survey is presented on the current status of 3D nucleon tomography. Several research frontiers are addressed that dominate modern physics from theory to current and future experi…

Radiative corrections to elastic proton-electron scattering measured in coincidence

G. I. Gakh, M. I. Konchatnij, N. P. Merenkov +1

The differential cross section for elastic scattering of protons on electrons at rest is calculated taking into account the QED radiative corrections to the leptonic part of intera…

Neutrino-Nucleus Cross Sections for Oscillation Experiments

Teppei Katori, Marco Martini

Neutrino oscillations physics is entered in the precision era. In this context accelerator-based neutrino experiments need a reduction of systematic errors to the level of a few pe…

Improved jet substructure methods: Y-splitter and variants with grooming

Mrinal Dasgupta, Alexander Powling, Lais Schunk +1

It has recently been demonstrated with Monte Carlo studies that combining the well-known Y-splitter and trimming techniques gives rise to important gains in the signal significance…

Multi-particle correlations and KNO scaling in the medium-induced jet evolution

Miguel A. Escobedo, Edmond Iancu

We study the gluon distribution produced via successive medium-induced branchings by an energetic jet propagating through a weakly-coupled quark-gluon plasma. We show that under su…

Medium Induced Transverse Momentum Broadening in Hard Processes

A. H. Mueller, Bin Wu, Bo-Wen Xiao +1

Using deep inelastic scattering on a large nucleus as an example, we consider the transverse momentum broadening of partons in hard processes in the presence of medium. We find tha…

The thermalization of soft modes in non-expanding isotropic quark gluon plasmas

Jean-Paul Blaizot, Jinfeng Liao, Yacine Mehtar-Tani

We discuss the role of elastic and inelastic collisions and their interplay in the thermalization of the quark-gluon plasma. We consider a simplified situation of a static plasma,…

The effective cross section for double parton scattering within a holographic AdS/QCD approach

Marco Traini, Matteo Rinaldi, Sergio Scopetta +1

A first attempt to apply the AdS/QCD framework for a bottom-up approach to the evaluation of the effective cross section for double parton scattering in proton-proton collisions is…

Correlations in Double Parton Distributions: Perturbative and Non-Perturbative effects

Matteo Rinaldi, Sergio Scopetta, Marco Claudio Traini +1

The correct description of Double Parton Scattering (DPS), which represents a background in several channels for the search of new Physics at the LHC, requires the knowledge of dou…

CGC factorization for forward particle production in proton-nucleus collisions at next-to-leading order

E. Iancu, A. H. Mueller, D. N. Triantafyllopoulos

Within the Color Glass Condensate effective theory, we reconsider the next-to-leading order (NLO) calculation of the single inclusive particle production at forward rapidities in p…

High Gluon Densities in Heavy Ions Collisions

Jean-Paul Blaizot

The early stages of heavy ion collisions are dominated by high density systems of gluons that carry each a small fraction of the momenta of the colliding nucleons. A distinguis…

New limits on anomalous contributions to the vertex

J. L. Birman, F. Déliot, M. C. N. Fiolhais +2

The latest and most precise top quark measurements at the LHC and Tevatron are used to establish new limits on the vertex. Recent results on the measurements of the -boson…

Probing Transverse Momentum Broadening in Heavy Ion Collisions

A. H. Mueller, Bin Wu, Bo-Wen Xiao +1

We study the dijet azimuthal de-correlation in relativistic heavy ion collisions as an important probe of the transverse momentum broadening effects of a high energy jet traversing…

Inclusive jet spectrum for small-radius jets

Mrinal Dasgupta, Frédéric A. Dreyer, Gavin P. Salam +1

Following on our earlier work on leading-logarithmic (LLR) resummations for the properties of jets with a small radius, R, we here examine the phenomenological considerations for t…

The collinearly-improved Balitsky-Kovchegov equation

E. Iancu, J. D. Madrigal, A. H. Mueller +2

The high-energy evolution in perturbative QCD suffers from a severe lack-of-convergence problem, due to higher order corrections enhanced by double and single transverse logarithms…
