50 Years of Quantum Chromodynamics

Franz Gross, Eberhard Klempt, Stanley J. Brodsky +92

This paper presents a comprehensive review of both the theory and experimental successes of Quantum Chromodynamics, starting with its emergence as a well defined theory in 1972-73…

On sum rules for double and triple parton distribution functions and Pythia's model of multiple parton interactions

Oleh Fedkevych, Jonathan R. Gaunt

Multi-parton distributions in a proton, the nonperturbative quantities needed to make predictions for multiple scattering rates, are poorly constrained from theory and data and mus…

Collinear functions for QCD resummations

Stefano Catani, Prasanna K. Dhani

The singular behaviour of QCD squared amplitudes in the collinear limit is factorized and controlled by splitting kernels with a process-independent structure. We use these kernels…

Soft logarithms in processes with heavy quarks

Daniele Gaggero, Andrea Ghira, Simone Marzani +1

Observables involving heavy quarks can be computed in perturbative QCD in two different approximation schemes: either the quark mass dependence is fully retained, or it is retained…

Resummation effects in the bottom-quark fragmentation function

Fabio Maltoni, Giovanni Ridolfi, Maria Ubiali +1

We compute the perturbative component of the fragmentation function of the quark to the best of the present theoretical knowledge. The fixed-order calculation to order …

The Role of Vector Boson Fusion in the Production of Heavy Vector Triplets at the LHC and HL-LHC

Michael J. Baker, Timothy Martonhelyi, Andrea Thamm +1

We clarify the role of vector boson fusion (VBF) in the production of heavy vector triplets at the LHC and the HL-LHC. We point out that the presence of VBF production leads to an…

Strong decay widths and mass spectra of charmed baryons

H. Garcia-Tecocoatzi, A. Giachino, J. Li +2

The total decay widths of the charmed baryons are calculated by means of the model. Our calculations consider in the final states: the charmed baryon-(vector/pseudoscalar)…

False vacuum decay: an introductory review

Federica Devoto, Simone Devoto, Luca Di Luzio +1

We review the description of tunnelling phenomena in the semi-classical approximation in ordinary quantum mechanics and in quantum field theory. In particular, we describe in detai…

A Fragmentation Approach to Jet Flavor

Simone Caletti, Andrew J. Larkoski, Simone Marzani +1

An intuitive definition of the partonic flavor of a jet in quantum chromodynamics is often only well-defined in the deep ultraviolet, where the strong force becomes a free theory a…

Practical Jet Flavour Through NNLO

Simone Caletti, Andrew J. Larkoski, Simone Marzani +1

An infrared and collinear (IRC) safe definition of the partonic flavour of a jet is vital for precision predictions of quantum chromodynamics at colliders. Jet flavour definitions…

Learning new physics efficiently with nonparametric methods

Marco Letizia, Gianvito Losapio, Marco Rando +5

We present a machine learning approach for model-independent new physics searches. The corresponding algorithm is powered by recent large-scale implementations of kernel methods, n…

The heavy tetra-quark states after the discovery of tetra-charm states

Carlo Becchi

This paper is devoted to the study of exclusive charm and bottom aggregates which are suitable, at least partially, for a non-relativistic description. Starting from a simple choic…

Substructure of Multiquark Hadrons (Snowmass 2021 White Paper)

Nora Brambilla, Hua-Xing Chen, Angelo Esposito +27

In recent years there has been a rapidly growing body of experimental evidence for existence of exotic, multiquark hadrons, i.e. mesons which contain additional quarks, beyond the…

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle in the PTOLEMY project: a theory update

PTOLEMY Collaboration, A. Apponi, M. G. Betti +58

We discuss the consequences of the quantum uncertainty on the spectrum of the electron emitted by the -processes of a tritium atom bound to a graphene sheet. We analyze quantita…

Identification of b-jets using QCD-inspired observables

Oleh Fedkevych, Charanjit K. Khosa, Simone Marzani +1

We study the issue of separating hadronic jets that contain bottom quarks (-jets) from jets featuring light partons only. We develop a novel approach to -tagging that exploit…
