The strong coupling constant at small momentum as an instanton detector

Ph. Boucaud, F. De Soto, A. Le Yaouanc +5

We present a study of at small p computed from the lattice. It shows a dramatic law which can be understood within an instanton liquid model. In this fra…

Universality of nonperturbative QCD effects in radiative B-decays

S. Descotes-Genon, C. T. Sachrajda

We demonstrate, by an explicit one-loop calculation, that at leading twist the nonperturbative effects in B -> gamma l nu, B -> gamma gamma and B -> gamma l+ l- radiative decays ar…

SuSpect: a Fortran Code for the Supersymmetric and Higgs Particle Spectrum in the MSSM

Abdelhak Djouadi, Jean-Loic Kneur, Gilbert Moultaka

We present the Fortran code SuSpect version 2.3, which calculates the Supersymmetric and Higgs particle spectrum in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). The calculatio…

Can radiative magnification of mixing angles occur for two-zero neutrino mass matrix textures?

Gautam Bhattacharyya, Amitava Raychaudhuri, Arunansu Sil

Neutrino Majorana masses and mixings can be generated from a dimension-5 operator within the standard model particle content. After a review of the mechanism of radiative enhanceme…

O.P.E. and Power Corrections to the QCD coupling constant

Ph. Boucaud, F. De Soto, A. Donini +6

Lattice data seems to show that power corrections should be convoked to describe appropriately the transition of the QCD coupling constant running from U.V. to I.R. domains. Those…

Sum rules in the heavy quark limit of QCD

A. Le Yaouanc, L. Oliver, J. -C. Raynal

In the leading order of the heavy quark expansion, we propose a method within the OPE and the trace formalism, that allows to obtain, in a systematic way, Bjorken-like sum rules fo…

Kinetic equilibration in heavy ion collisions: the role of elastic processes

Julien Serreau

We discuss the question of thermalization during the very early stages of a high energy heavy ion collision. We review a recent study where we explicitely showed that, contrarily t…

An Instanton Picture O.P.E. <A^2> Condensate?

Ph. Boucaud, F. De Soto, A. Donini +6

Gluon two- and three-point Green Functions computed in Landau gauge from the lattice show the existence of power corrections to the purely perturbative expressions, that can be exp…

Variational analysis of the deconfinement phase transition

I. I. Kogan, A. Kovner, J. G. Milhano

We study the deconfining phase transition in 3+1 dimensional pure SU(N) Yang-Mills theory using a gauge invariant variational calculation. We generalize the variational ansatz of P…

Confronting Spectral Functions from e+e- Annihilation and tau Decays: Consequences for the Muon Magnetic Moment

M. Davier, S. Eidelman, A. Hocker +1

Vacuum polarization integrals involve the vector spectral functions which can be experimentally determined from two sources: (i) e+e- annihilation cross sections and (ii) hadronic…

A general analysis with trilinear and bilinear R-parity violating couplings in the light of recent SNO data

Asmaa Abada, Gautam Bhattacharyya, Marta Losada

We analyse an extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model including the dominant trilinear and bilinear R-parity violating contributions. We take the trilinear terms fro…

A transparent expression of the A^2-Condensate's renormalisation

Ph. Boucaud, F. De Soto, A. Le Yaouanc +5

We give a more transparent understanding of the vacuum expectation value of the renormalised local operator A^2 by relating it to the gluon propagator integrated over the momentum.…

First lattice QCD estimate of the g_{D^* D pi} coupling

A. Abada, D. Becirevic, Ph. Boucaud +5

We present the results of the first lattice QCD study of the strong coupling g_{D^* D pi}. From our simulations in the quenched approximation, we obtain g_{D^* D pi} = 18.8 +/- 2.3…

Does parton saturation at high density explain hadron multiplicities at RHIC ?

R. Baier, A. H. Mueller, D. Schiff +1
