Jet properties at high-multiplicity
Erik Gerwick, Peter Schichtel
We investigate the behaviour of jets at high-multiplicity using analytic techniques. We consider in detail the rates, areas and the intermediate splitting scales as a function of t…
Soft evolution of multi-jet final states
Erik Gerwick, Stefan Hoeche, Simone Marzani +1
We present a new framework for computing resummed and matched distributions in processes with many hard QCD jets. The intricate color structure of soft gluon emission at large angl…
Les Houches 2013: Physics at TeV Colliders: Standard Model Working Group Report
J. Butterworth, G. Dissertori, S. Dittmaier +76
This Report summarizes the proceedings of the 2013 Les Houches workshop on Physics at TeV Colliders. Session 1 dealt primarily with (1) the techniques for calculating standard mode…
Recursive prescription for logarithmic jet rate coefficients
Erik Gerwick
We derive a recursion relation for the analytic leading logarithmic coefficients of a final state gluon cascade. We demonstrate the potential of our method by analytically computin…
Scaling Patterns for QCD Jets
Erik Gerwick, Tilman Plehn, Steffen Schumann +1
Jet emission at hadron colliders follows simple scaling patterns. Based on perturbative QCD we derive Poisson and staircase scaling for final state as well as initial state radiati…
From Jet Counting to Jet Vetoes
Peter Schichtel, Christoph Englert, Erik Gerwick +2
The properties of multi-jet events impact many LHC analysis. The exclusive number of jets at hadron colliders can be described in terms of two simple patterns: staircase scaling an…
Towards singularity and ghost free theories of gravity
Tirthabir Biswas, Erik Gerwick, Tomi Koivisto +1
We present the most general covariant ghost-free gravitational action in a Minkowski vacuum. Apart from the much studied f(R) models, this includes a large class of non-local actio…
W+jets, Z+jets, multijets and new physics searches
Christoph Englert, Erik Gerwick, Tilman Plehn +2
W+jets, Z+jets and QCD multijet production processes at hadron colliders are backgrounds to many searches for physics beyond the Standard Model which involve leptons and missing en…
Understanding Jet Scaling and Jet Vetos in Higgs Searches
Erik Gerwick, Tilman Plehn, Steffen Schumann
Jet counting and jet vetos are crucial analysis tools for many LHC searches. We can understand their properties from the distribution of the exclusive number of jets. LHC processes…
Asymptotic safety and Kaluza-Klein gravitons at the LHC
Erik Gerwick, Daniel Litim, Tilman Plehn
We study Drell-Yan production at the LHC in low-scale quantum gravity models with extra dimensions. Asymptotic safety implies that the ultra-violet behavior of gravity is dictated…
Asymptotically Safe Gravitons in Electroweak Precision Physics
Erik Gerwick
Asymptotic safety offers a field theory based UV completion to gravity. For low Planck scales, gravitational effects on low-energy precision observables cannot be neglected. We com…
Extra Dimensions and their Ultraviolet Completion
Erik Gerwick, Tilman Plehn
Large extra dimensions are one of the constructions addressing the hierarchy problem of the Standard Model. Their main theoretical and phenomenological challenge is that already pr…
