The complete NLO corrections to dijet hadroproduction

Rikkert Frederix, Stefano Frixione, Valentin Hirschi +3

We study the production of jets in hadronic collisions, by computing all contributions proportional to $α_{S}^{n} α^{m}$ , with $n + m = 2$ and $n + m = 3$ . These correspond to leading and next-to…

LHC Forward Physics

K. Akiba, M. Akbiyik, M. Albrow +184

The goal of this report is to give a comprehensive overview of the rich field of forward physics, with a special attention to the topics that can be studied at the LHC. The report…

Searching for New Physics in Semi-Leptonic Baryon Decays

Elvio Di Salvo, Ziad J. Ajaltouni

We propose two different and complementary observables for singling out possible signals of physics beyond the standard model in the semi-leptonic decays $Λ_b \to Λ_c \ell{\bar ν}_…

Non-Unitarity, sterile neutrinos, and Non-Standard neutrino Interactions

Mattias Blennow, Pilar Coloma, Enrique Fernandez-Martinez +2

The simplest Standard Model extension to explain neutrino masses involves the addition of right-handed neutrinos. At some level, this extension will impact neutrino oscillation sea…

Baryons in the unquenched quark model

R. Bijker, S. Diaz-Gomez, M. A. Lopez-Ruiz +1

In this contribution, we present the unquenched quark model as an extension of the constituent quark model that includes the effects of sea quarks via a $^{3} P_{0}$ quark-antiquark…

Open flavor strong decays

H. García-Tecocoatzi, R. Bijker, J. Ferretti +2

In this contribution, we discuss the results of a QM calculation of the open-flavor strong decays of **** light nucleon resonances. These are the results of a recent calculation, w…

An interacting quark-diquark model. Strange and nonstrange baryon spectroscopy and other observables

M. De Sanctis, J. Ferretti, R. Magaña Vsevolodovna +2

We describe the relativistic interacting quark-diquark model formalism and its application to the calculation of strange and nonstrange baryon spectra. The results are compared to…

Hidden-charm pentaquarks as a meson-baryon molecule with coupled channels for $D ˉ^{()} Λ_{c}$ and $D ˉ^{()} Σ_{c}^{(*)}$

Yasuhiro Yamaguchi, Elena Santopinto

The recent observation of two hidden-charm pentaquark states by LHCb collaborations prompted us to investigate the exotic states close to the $D ˉ Λ_{c}$ , $\bar{D}^{\ast}Λ_{…

Massive vectors and loop observables: the $g - 2$ case

Carla Biggio, Marzia Bordone, Luca Di Luzio +1

We discuss the use of massive vectors for the interpretation of some recent experimental anomalies, with special attention to the muon $g - 2$ . We restrict our discussion to the case…

Quark mass dependence of H-dibaryon in $ΛΛ$ scattering

Yasuhiro Yamaguchi, Tetsuo Hyodo

We study the quark mass dependence of the H-dibaryon in the strangeness $S = - 2$ baryon-baryon scattering. A low-energy effective field theory is used to describe the coupled-channel…

Heavy Hadrons in Nuclear Matter

Atsushi Hosaka, Tetsuo Hyodo, Kazutaka Sudoh +2

Current studies on heavy hadrons in nuclear medium are reviewed with a summary of the basic theoretical concepts of QCD, namely chiral symmetry, heavy quark spin symmetry, and the…

Testable Baryogenesis in Seesaw Models

P. Hernández, M. Kekic, J. López-Pavón +2

We revisit the production of baryon asymmetries in the minimal type I seesaw model with heavy Majorana singlets in the GeV range. In particular we include "washout" effects from sc…

Anatomy of double heavy-quark initiated processes

Matthew Lim, Fabio Maltoni, Giovanni Ridolfi +1

A number of phenomenologically relevant processes at hadron colliders, such as Higgs and Z boson production in association with b quarks, can be conveniently described as scatterin…

Global constraints on heavy neutrino mixing

Enrique Fernandez-Martinez, Josu Hernandez-Garcia, Jacobo Lopez-Pavon

We derive general constraints on the mixing of heavy Seesaw neutrinos with the SM fields from a global fit to present flavour and electroweak precision data. We explore and compare…

Compact pentaquark structures

Elena Santopinto, Alessandro Giachino

We study the possibility that at least one of the two pentaquark structures recently reported by LHCb can be described as a compact pentaquark state, and we give predictions for ne…

Heavy-quark mass effects in Higgs plus jets production

Rikkert Frederix, Stefano Frixione, Eleni Vryonidou +1

We study the production of a Standard Model Higgs boson in the gluon-fusion channel at the 13 TeV LHC. Our results are accurate to the next-to-leading order in QCD, bar for the lac…

Off-shell single-top production at NLO matched to parton showers

Rikkert Frederix, Stefano Frixione, Andrew S. Papanastasiou +2

We study the hadroproduction of a $W b$ pair in association with a light jet, focusing on the dominant $t$ -channel contribution and including exactly at the matrix-element level all…

Production of extra quarks at the Large Hadron Collider beyond the Narrow Width Approximation

Stefano Moretti, Dermot O'Brien, Luca Panizzi +1

This paper explores the effects of both finite width and interference (with background) in the pair production and decay of extra heavy quarks with charge 2/3 at the Large Hadron C…

Probing a slepton Higgs on all frontiers

Carla Biggio, Jeff Asaf Dror, Yuval Grossman +1

We study several aspects of supersymmetric models with a $U (1)_{R}$ symmetry where the Higgs doublet is identified with the superpartner of a lepton. We derive new, stronger bounds o…

Electroproduction ratios of Baryon-Meson states and Strangeness Suppression

E. Santopinto, R. Bijker, H. García-Tecocoatzi

We describe the electroproduction ratios of baryon-meson states from nucleon, inferring from the sea quarks in the nucleon using an extension of the quark model that takes into acc…
