Infinite Tension Limit of the Pure Spinor Superstring
Nathan Berkovits
Mason and Skinner recently constructed a chiral infinite tension limit of the Ramond-Neveu-Schwarz superstring which was shown to compute the Cachazo-He-Yuan formulae for tree-leve…
Massless scattering at special kinematics as Jacobi polynomials
Chrysostomos Kalousios
We study the scattering equations recently proposed by Cachazo, He and Yuan in the special kinematics where their solutions can be identified with the zeros of the Jacobi polynomia…
Flavor Physics in Warped Space
Gero von Gersdorff
We review constraints from quark and lepton flavor violation on extra dimensional models with warped geometry, both in the minimal and the custodial model. For both scenarios, KK m…
Anomalous gauge couplings from composite Higgs and warped extra dimensions
Sylvain Fichet, Gero von Gersdorff
We examine trilinear and quartic anomalous gauge couplings (AGCs) generated in composite Higgs models and models with warped extra dimensions. We first revisit the SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y…
Pure Spinor b-ghost in a Super-Maxwell Background
Ilya Bakhmatov, Nathan Berkovits
In the pure spinor formalism for the superstring, the b-ghost is a composite operator satisfying {Q,b}=T where Q is the pure spinor BRST operator and T is the holomorphic stress te…
Effective field theory methods to model compact binaries
Stefano Foffa, Riccardo Sturani
In this short review we present a self-contained exposition of the effective field theory method approach to model the dynamics of gravitationally bound compact binary systems with…
Tinkertoys for the Twisted D-Series
Oscar Chacaltana, Jacques Distler, Anderson Trimm
We study 4D N=2 superconformal field theories that arise from the compactification of 6D N=(2,0) theories of type D_N on a Riemann surface, in the presence of punctures twisted by…
Large-scale analysis of the SDSS-III DR8 photometric luminous galaxies angular correlation function
Fernando de Simoni, Flavia Sobreira, Aurelio Carnero +6
We analyse the large-scale angular correlation function (ACF) of the CMASS luminous galaxies (LGs), a photometric-redshift catalogue based on the Data Release 8 (DR8) of the Sloan…
Linking Natural Supersymmetry to Flavour Physics
Emilian Dudas, Gero von Gersdorff, Stefan Pokorski +1
With the aim of linking natural supersymmetry to flavour physics, a model is proposed based on a family symmetry G \times U(1), where G is a discrete nonabelian subgroup of SU(2),…
Notes on the pure spinor b ghost
Renann Lipinski Jusinskas
In this work, a particular BRST-exact class of deformations of the b ghost in the non-minimal pure spinor formalism is investigated and the impact of this construction in the $\mat…
On baryogenesis from dark matter annihilation
Nicolas Bernal, Stefano Colucci, Francois-Xavier Josse-Michaux +2
We study in detail the conditions to generate the baryon asymmetry of the universe from the annihilation of dark matter. This scenario requires a low energy mechanism for thermal b…
Holographic deconfinement transition in the presence of a magnetic field
Alfonso Ballon-Bayona
We investigate the thermodynamics of the flavour sector of the Sakai-Sugimoto model in the presence of a magnetic field. Renormalizing the euclidean Dirac-Born-Infeld action in the…
Stringent limits on top-quark compositeness from top anti-top production at the Tevatron and the LHC
M. Fabbrichesi, M. Pinamonti, A. Tonero
If the top quark is a composite state made out of some constituents, its interaction with the gluon will be modified. We introduce the leading effective operators that contribute t…
Dynamical twisting and the b ghost in the pure spinor formalism
Nathan Berkovits
After adding an RNS-like fermionic vector ψ^m to the pure spinor formalism, the non-minimal b ghost takes a simple form similar to the pure spinor BRST operator. The N=2 superconfo…
A Bayesian view of the Higgs sector with higher dimensional operators
Beranger Dumont, Sylvain Fichet, Gero von Gersdorff
We investigate the possibilities of New Physics affecting the Standard Model (SM) Higgs sector. An effective Lagrangian with dimension-six operators is used to capture the effect o…
Scale-invariant resonance tagging in multijet events and new physics in Higgs pair production
Maxime Gouzevitch, Alexandra Oliveira, Juan Rojo +3
We study resonant pair production of heavy particles in fully hadronic final states by means of jet substructure techniques. We propose a new resonance tagging strategy that smooth…
Nilpotency of the b ghost in the non-minimal pure spinor formalism
Renann Lipinski Jusinskas
The b ghost in the non minimal pure spinor formalism is not a fundamental field. It is based on a complicated chain of operators and proving its nilpotency is nontrivial. Chandia p…
DBI equations and holographic DC conductivity
Alfonso Ballon-Bayona, Cristine N. Ferreira, Victor J. Vasquez Otoya
We provide a simple method for writing the Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) equations of a Dp-brane in an arbitrary static background whose metric depends only on the holographic radial coo…
Chameleonic inflation
Kurt Hinterbichler, Justin Khoury, Horatiu Nastase +1
We attempt to incorporate inflation into a string theory realization of the chameleon mechanism. Previously, it was found that the volume modulus, stabilized by the supersymmetric…
