A Check-up for the Statistical Parton Model

Franco Buccella, Sozha Sohaily

We compare the parton distributions deduced in the framework of a quantum statistical approach for both the longitudinal and transverse degrees of freedom with the unpolarized dist…

Status of and CKM matrix elements

Giulia Ricciardi

We summarize the status of and determinations, including the long standing tension among exclusive and inclusive determinations. We also discuss meson sem…

How large is the gluon polarization in the statistical parton distributions approach?

Jacques Soffer, Claude Bourrely, Franco Buccella

We review the theoretical foundations of the quantum statistical approach to parton distributions and we show that by using some recent experimental results from Deep Inelastic Sca…

Unification of Coupling Constants, Dimension six Operators and the Spectral Action

Agostino Devastato, Fedele Lizzi, Carlos Valcarcel Flores +1

We investigate whether inclusion of dimension six terms in the Standard Model lagrangean may cause the unification of the coupling constants at a scale comprised between 10^14 and…

New results in the quantum statistical approach to parton distributions

Jacques Soffer, Franco Buccella, Claude Bourrely

We will describe the quantum statistical approach to parton distributions allowing to obtain simultaneously the unpolarized distributions and the helicity distributions. We will pr…

Heavy-to-light semileptonic decays of Lambda_b and Lambda_c baryons in the covariant confined quark model

Thomas Gutsche, Mikhail A. Ivanov, Jurgen G. Korner +2

We present a detailed analysis of the heavy-to-light semileptonic decays of the Lambda_b and Lambda_c baryons Lambda_b -> p l- bar(nu)_l and Lambda_c -> n l+ nu_l in the covariant…

Collisional production of sterile neutrinos via secret interactions and cosmological implications

Alessandro Mirizzi, Gianpiero Mangano, Ofelia Pisanti +1

Secret interactions among sterile neutrinos have been recently proposed as an escape-route to reconcile eV sterile neutrino hints from short-baseline anomalies with cosmological ob…

Associated ZH production at hadron colliders: the fully differential NNLO QCD calculation

Giancarlo Ferrera, Massimiliano Grazzini, Francesco Tramontano

We consider Standard Model Higgs boson production in association with a Z boson in hadron collisions. We present a fully exclusive computation of QCD radiative corrections up to ne…

QCD and strongly coupled gauge theories: challenges and perspectives

N. Brambilla, S. Eidelman, P. Foka +46

We highlight the progress, current status, and open challenges of QCD-driven physics, in theory and in experiment. We discuss how the strong interaction is intimately connected to…

Damping the neutrino flavor pendulum by breaking homogeneity

Gianpiero Mangano, Alessandro Mirizzi, Ninetta Saviano

The most general case of self-induced neutrino flavor evolution is described by a set of kinetic equations for a dense neutrino gas evolving both in space and time. Solutions of th…

GoSam-2.0: a tool for automated one-loop calculations within the Standard Model and beyond

G. Cullen, H. van Deurzen, N. Greiner +9

We present the version 2.0 of the program package GoSam for the automated calculation of one-loop amplitudes. GoSam is devised to compute one-loop QCD and/or electroweak correction…

Progress on semi-leptonic decays

Giulia Ricciardi

We report on the current status of semi-leptonic decays, including rare decays, and the extraction of the absolute values of the CKM matrix elements and $|V_{u…

The mass-hierarchy and CP-violation discovery reach of the LBNO long-baseline neutrino experiment

LBNO Collaboration, S. K. Agarwalla, L. Agostino +214

The next generation neutrino observatory proposed by the LBNO collaboration will address fundamental questions in particle and astroparticle physics. The experiment consists of a f…
