Event Generators for High-Energy Physics Experiments
J. M. Campbell, M. Diefenthaler, T. J. Hobbs +209
We provide an overview of the status of Monte-Carlo event generators for high-energy particle physics. Guided by the experimental needs and requirements, we highlight areas of acti…
CHARYBDIS: A Black Hole Event Generator
C. M. Harris, P. Richardson, B. R. Webber
CHARYBDIS is an event generator which simulates the production and decay of miniature black holes at hadronic colliders as might be possible in certain extra dimension models. It i…
Detecting Exotic Heavy Leptons at the Large Hadron Collider
B. C. Allanach, C. M. Harris, M. A. Parker +2
New almost-degenerate charged and neutral heavy leptons are a feature of a number of theories of physics beyond the Standard Model. The prospects for detecting these at the Large H…
Extracting the Flavour Structure of a Baryon-Number R-parity Violating Coupling at the LHC
B. C. Allanach, A. J. Barr, M. A. Parker +2
The detection of the flavour content of jets produced from R-parity violating neutralino decays is investigated in the case where one baryon-number violating coupling dominates. Si…
Searching for Narrow Graviton Resonances with the ATLAS Detector at the Large Hadron Collider
B. C. Allanach, K. Odagiri, M. A. Parker +1
A spectrum of massive graviton states is present in several recent theoretical models that include extra space dimensions. In some such models the graviton states are well separate…
Naturalness Reach of the Large Hadron Collider in Minimal Supergravity
B. C. Allanach, J. P. J. Hetherington, M. A. Parker +1
We re-analyse the prospects of discovering supersymmetry at the LHC, in order to re-express coverage in terms of a fine-tuning parameter and to extend the analysis to scalar masses…
Comparisons of New Jet Clustering Algorithms for Hadron-Hadron Collisions
A. T. Pierce, B. R. Webber
We investigate a modification of the -clustering jet algorithm for hadron-hadron collisions, analogous to the ``Cambridge'' algorithm recently proposed for annihi…
Power Corrections to Fragmentation Functions in Non-Singlet Deep Inelastic Scattering
M. Dasgupta, G. E. Smye, B. R. Webber
We investigate the power-suppressed corrections to the fragmentation functions of the current jet in non-singlet deep inelastic lepton-hadron scattering. The current jet is defined…
Renormalon Phenomena in Jets and Hard Processes
B. R. Webber
The `renormalon' or `dispersive' method for estimating non-perturbative corrections to QCD observables is reviewed. The corrections are power-suppressed, i.e. of the form w…
Report of the Working Group on `W Mass and QCD' (Phenomenology Workshop on LEP2 Physics, Oxford, April 1997)
A. Ballestrero, D. G. Charlton, G. Cowan +25
The W Mass and QCD Working Group discussed a wide variety of topics relating to present and future measurements of M(W) at LEP2, including QCD backgrounds to W+W- production. Parti…
Power Corrections to Event Shape Distributions
Yu. L. Dokshitzer, B. R. Webber
We estimate the effects of non-perturbative physics on the differential distributions of infrared- and collinear-safe event shape variables, by extending the notion of an…
Deep Inelastic Scattering -- Theory and Phenomenology
B. R. Webber
Recent developments in theory and phenomenology relevant to deep inelastic lepton scattering are reviewed, concentrating on the following topics: Predicted behaviour of non-singlet…
Power Corrections and Renormalons in Deep Inelastic Structure Functions
M. Dasgupta, B. R. Webber
We study the power corrections (infrared renormalon contributions) to the coefficient functions for non-singlet deep inelastic structure functions due to gluon vacuum polarization…
HERBVI - a program for simulation of baryon- and lepton- number violating processes
M. J. Gibbs, B. R. Webber
We describe a Monte Carlo event generator for the simulation of baryon- and lepton-number violating processes at supercolliders. The package, {\HERBVI}, is designed as a hard-proce…
QCD Scaling Violation at Small x
R. K. Ellis, F. Hautmann, B. R. Webber
We investigate the evolution of parton densities at small values of the momentum fraction, x, by including resummed anomalous dimensions in the renormalization group equations. The…
Estimation of Power Corrections to Hadronic Event Shapes
B. R. Webber
Power corrections to hadronic event shapes are estimated using a recently suggested relationship between perturbative and non-perturbative effects in QCD. The infrared cutoff depen…
Fragmentation Function Method for Charge Asymmetry Measurements in $\e^+e^-$ Collisions
P. Nason, B. W. Webber
We propose a method for measuring the hadron charge asymmetry in $\ee$ collisions which is based upon the fragmentation function formalism, and is largely independent of modelling…
