Vector-Like Fermions at FCC-ee: NLO Higgs-Strahlung Signatures and Constraints
Carlo Marzo, Vinicius Padovani, Daniele Rizzo
We compute the one-loop effects of vector-like fermions (VLFs) on the Higgs-strahlung cross-section, the flagship precision observable of future Higgs factories such as FC…
Numerical polology: towards next-generation model-building for cosmology
Will Barker, Will Handley, Michael Hobson +4
The dark sector need not be restricted to simple field content. Indeed, simple bosonic configurations, such as scalar-tensor or dark photon models, contrast with the much richer pi…
Gravitational mass generation and consistent non-minimal couplings: cubics and quartics of a massive vector
Carlo Marzo
An attempt to evade the strict uniqueness of consistent interactions involving spin-2 particles is made by modifying the Noether procedure from the outset. A vector field is introd…
Kummitus: a light-weight toolbox for counting DOF in perturbative QFT
Carlo Marzo
The consistent construction of quantum field theories beyond the simplest cases requires a precise characterization of the propagating degrees of freedom. These are encoded in the…
Higher spin Lagrangians from higher derivative diffeomorphisms
Will Barker, Dario Francia, Carlo Marzo +1
The covariant description of massless particles of arbitrary spin typically employs symmetric tensors of rank and rests on a local symmetry carried by symmetric tensor paramete…
Infrared foundations for quantum geometry II: Catalogue of all torsion-like theories including new ghost-tachyon-free cases
Will Barker, Carlo Marzo, Alessandro Santoni
The construction of consistent effective field theories in the infrared demands that models be defined by their underlying gauge symmetries, rather than by an arbitrary tuning of c…
Infrared foundations for quantum geometry I: Catalogue of totally symmetric rank-three field theories
Will Barker, Carlo Marzo, Alessandro Santoni
We systematically obtain all linear models which propagate a totally symmetric rank-three field without parity violation on a flat background. Each such model is defined exclusivel…
Can metric-affine gravity be saved?
Will Barker, Carlo Marzo, Alessandro Santoni
Like general relativity, metric-affine gravity should be a viable effective quantum theory, otherwise it is a mathematical curiosity without physical application. Assuming a pertur…
PSALTer: Particle Spectrum for Any Tensor Lagrangian
Will Barker, Carlo Marzo, Claire Rigouzzo
We present the PSALTer software for efficiently computing the mass and energy of the particle spectrum for any (e.g. higher-rank) tensor field theory in the Wolfram Language. The u…
Particle spectra of general Ricci-type Palatini or metric-affine theories
W. Barker, C. Marzo
In the context of weak-field metric-affine (i.e. Palatini) gravity near Minkowski spacetime, we compute the particle spectra in the simultaneous presence of all independent contrac…
Can MAG be a predictive EFT? Radiative Stability and Ghost Resurgence in Massive Vector Models
Carlo Marzo
The rigorous conditions to obtain sensible predictions in non (proper) renormalizable Quantum Field Theories were derived a long time ago, most notably in the works of Steven Weinb…
Conformal anomaly actions for dilaton interactions
Luigi Delle Rose, Carlo Marzo, Mirko Serino
We discuss, in conformally invariant field theories such as QCD with massless fermions, a possible link between the perturbative signature of the conformal anomaly, in the form of…
