Minimal Inflation
Luis Alvarez-Gaume, Cesar Gomez, Raul Jimenez
Using the universal X superfield that measures in the UV the violation of conformal invariance we build up a model of multifield inflation. The underlying dynamics is the one contr…
CDMS stands for Constrained Dark Matter Singlet
Marco Farina, Duccio Pappadopulo, Alessandro Strumia
Motivated by the two candidate Dark Matter events observed by the CDMS experiment, we consider a Constrained Dark Matter Singlet (CDMS) model that, with no free parameters, predict…
Multi-Parton Scattering Amplitudes via On-Shell Methods
Carola F. Berger, Darren Forde
We present an overview of recent developments, based on on-shell techniques, in the calculation of multi-parton scattering amplitudes at one loop that are relevant for phenomenolog…
Interpreting multiple dualities conjectured from superconformal index identities
A. Khmelnitsky
We consider field theory side of new multiple Seiberg dualities conjectured within superconformal index matching approach. We study the case of SU(2) supersymmetric QCD and find th…
Spectator stresses and CMB observables
Massimo Giovannini
The large-scale curvature perturbations induced by spectator anisotropic stresses are analyzed across the matter-radiation transition. It is assumed that the anisotropic stress is…
Radiation hardness qualification of PbWO4 scintillation crystals for the CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter
The CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter Group, P. Adzic, N. Almeida +267
Ensuring the radiation hardness of PbWO4 crystals was one of the main priorities during the construction of the electromagnetic calorimeter of the CMS experiment at CERN. The produ…
Hints for the existence of hexaquark states in the baryon-antibaryon sector
Mario Abud, Franco Buccella, Francesco Tramontano
The discovery of some baryon-antibaryon resonances has led us to consider 3q~3\bar{q} systems as possible candidates. We predict their spectrum in the framework of a constituent mo…
A Quantum Monte Carlo Method at Fixed Energy
Edward Farhi, Jeffrey Goldstone, David Gosset +1
In this paper we explore new ways to study the zero temperature limit of quantum statistical mechanics using Quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We develop a Quantum Monte Carlo metho…
Hierarchical Neutrino Masses and Mixing in Flipped-SU(5)
J. Rizos, K. Tamvakis
We consider the problem of neutrino masses and mixing in the framework of flipped SU(5). The right-handed neutrino mass, generated through the operation of a seesaw mechanism by a…
Hadronic final states in deep-inelastic scattering with Sherpa
Tancredi Carli, Thomas Gehrmann, Stefan Höche
We extend the multi-purpose Monte-Carlo event generator Sherpa to include processes in deeply inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering. Hadronic final states in this kinematical setting…
Fast Beam Conditions Monitor BCM1F for the CMS Experiment
A. Bell, E. Castro, R. Hall-Wilton +8
The CMS Beam Conditions and Radiation Monitoring System, BRM, will support beam tuning, protect the CMS detector from adverse beam conditions, and measure the accumulated dose clos…
A relativistic coupled-channel formalism for the pion form factor
E. P. Biernat, W. Schweiger, K. Fuchsberger +1
The electromagnetic form factor of a confined quark-antiquark pair is calculated within the framework of point-form relativistic quantum mechanics. The dynamics of theexchanged pho…
Charged Higgs boson production in association with a top quark in MC@NLO
C. Weydert, S. Frixione, M. Herquet +5
We discuss the calculation of charged Higgs boson production in association with top quark in the MC@NLO framework for combining NLO matrix elements with a parton shower. The proce…
D-Foam Phenomenology: Dark Energy, the Velocity of Light and a Possible D-Void
John Ellis, Nick E. Mavromatos, Dimitri V. Nanopoulos
In a D-brane model of space-time foam, there are contributions to the dark energy that depend on the D-brane velocities and on the density of D-particle defects. The latter may als…
Inflation with the right-handed sneutrino revisited
O. Efthimiou, K. Tamvakis
We consider an extension of nuMSSM with an extra U(1) that realizes D-term inflation driven by the right-handed sneutrino. Non-renormalizable terms in the Kahler potential and the…
Evaporation of Microscopic Black Holes in String Theory and the Bound on Species
Gia Dvali, Dieter Lust
We address the question how string compactifications with D-branes are consistent with the black hole bound, which arises in any theory with number of particle species to which the…
The axion shield
A. Andrianov, D. Espriu, F. Mescia +1
We investigate the propagation of a charged particle in a spatially constant, but time dependent, pseudoscalar background. Physically this pseudoscalar background could be provided…
The POINT-AGAPE Survey: Comparing Automated Searches of Microlensing Events toward M31
Y. Tsapras, B. J. Carr, M. J. Weston +4
Searching for microlensing in M31 using automated superpixel surveys raises a number of difficulties which are not present in more conventional techniques. Here we focus on the pro…
Anomalous Single Top Production at the LHeC Based gamma p Collider
I. T. Cakir, O. Cakir, S. Sultansoy
The top quark could provide very important information for the Standard Model extentions due to its large mass close to the electroweak symmetry breaking scale. In this work, anoma…
Determination of the S-wave pi pi scattering lengths from a study of K+- -> pi+- pi0 pi0 decays
2 Collaboration
We report the results from a study of the full sample of ~ 6.031 10^7 K+- -> pi+- pi0 pi0 decays recorded by the NA48/2 experiment at the CERN SPS. As first observed in this experi…
Performance of prototypes for the ALICE electromagnetic calorimeter
The ALICE EMCal group
The performance of prototypes for the ALICE electromagnetic sampling calorimeter has been studied in test beam measurements at FNAL and CERN. A array of final design mod…
On the role of electroweak bremsstrahlung for indirect dark matter signatures
M. Kachelriess, P. D. Serpico, M. Aa. Solberg
Interpretations of indirect searches for dark matter (DM) require theoretical predictions for the annihilation or decay rates of DM into stable particles of the standard model. The…
