The physical meaning of scattering matrix singularities in coupled-channel formalisms

S. Capstick, A. Svarc, L. Tiator +8

The physical meaning of bare and dressed scattering matrix singularities has been investigated. Special attention has been attributed to the role of well known invariance of scatte…

Lowest order QED radiative corrections to five-fold differential cross section of hadron leptoproduction

I. Akushevich, A. Ilyichev, M. Osipenko

The contribution of exclusive radiative tail to the cross section of semi-inclusive hadron leptoproduction has been calculated exactly for the first time. Although the experience o…

Matching NLO QCD computations with Parton Shower simulations: the POWHEG method

Stefano Frixione, Paolo Nason, Carlo Oleari

The aim of this work is to describe in detail the POWHEG method, first suggested by one of the authors, for interfacing parton-shower generators with NLO QCD computations. We descr…

A Bayesian analysis of pentaquark signals from CLAS data

The CLAS Collaboration, D. G. Ireland

We examine the results of two measurements by the CLAS collaboration, one of which claimed evidence for a pentaquark, whilst the other found no such evidence. The unique fe…

A Positive-Weight Next-to-Leading-Order Monte Carlo for Heavy Flavour Hadroproduction

Stefano Frixione, Paolo Nason, Giovanni Ridolfi

We present a next-to-leading order calculation of heavy flavour production in hadronic collisions that can be interfaced to shower Monte Carlo programs. The calculation is performe…

A new prescription for soft gluon resummation

Riccardo Abbate, Stefano Forte, Giovanni Ridolfi

We present a new prescription for the resummation of the divergent series of perturbative corrections, due to soft gluon emission, to hard processes near threshold in perturbative…

Model-independent constraints on Delta F=2 operators and the scale of New Physics

UTfit Collaboration, M. Bona, M. Ciuchini +11

We update the constraints on new-physics contributions to Delta F=2 processes from the generalized unitarity triangle analysis, including the most recent experimental developments.…

Testing Time-Reversal: Lambda_b Decays into Polarized Resonances

Z. J. Ajaltouni, E. Di Salvo, O. Leitner

Weak decays of beauty baryons like Lambda_b into Lambda V(J^P=1^-), where the produced resonances are polarized, offer interesting opportunity to perform tests of Time-Reversal Inv…

Angular correlations of lepton pairs from vector boson and top quark decays in Monte Carlo simulations

S. Frixione, E. Laenen, P. Motylinski +1

We explain how angular correlations in leptonic decays of vector bosons and top quarks can be included in Monte Carlo parton showers, in particular those matched to NLO QCD computa…

Higgs Boson Properties in the Standard Model and its Supersymmetric Extensions

John Ellis, Giovanni Ridolfi, Fabio Zwirner

We review the realization of the Brout-Englert-Higgs mechanism in the electroweak theory and describe the experimental and theoretical constraints on the mass of the single Higgs b…

Unquenching the Quark Model

E. Santopinto, R. Bijker

We present the formalism for a new generation of unquenched quark models in which quark-antiquark pair effects are taken into account in an explicit form via a microscopic QCD-insp…

Improved Determination of the CKM Angle alpha from B to pi pi decays

UTfit Collaboration, M. Bona, M. Ciuchini +11

Motivated by a recent paper that compares the results of the analysis of the CKM angle alpha in the frequentist and in the Bayesian approaches, we have reconsidered the information…

Neural network determination of parton distributions: the nonsinglet case

The NNPDF Collaboration, Luigi Del Debbio, Stefano Forte +3

We provide a determination of the isotriplet quark distribution from available deep--inelastic data using neural networks. We give a general introduction to the neural network appr…
