A solution of 2D QCD at Finite using a conformal basis
Emanuel Katz, Gustavo Marques Tavares, Yiming Xu
We study 2D QCD with a fundamental fermion at small- using the recently proposed conformal basis approach. We find that effective conformal dominance still holds, namely that th…
Seeking Lorentz Violation from the Higgs
Andrew Cohen, Gustavo Marques Tavares, Yiming Xu
The recently discovered Higgs particle with a mass near GeV presents new opportunities to explore Lorentz violation. Ultra-high-energy cosmic rays are one of the most sensiti…
Higgs mass naturalness and scale invariance in the UV
Gustavo Marques Tavares, Martin Schmaltz, Witold Skiba
It has been suggested that electroweak symmetry breaking in the Standard Model may be natural if the Standard Model merges into a conformal field theory (CFT) at short distances. I…
Solving 2D QCD with an adjoint fermion analytically
Emanuel Katz, Gustavo Marques Tavares, Yiming Xu
We present an analytic approach to solving 1+1 dimensional QCD with an adjoint Majorana fermion. In the UV this theory is described by a trivial CFT containing free fermions. The q…
Light axigluon explanation of the Tevatron ttbar asymmetry and multijet signals at the LHC
Christian Gross, Gustavo Marques Tavares, Martin Schmaltz +1
The ttbar asymmetry measured at the Tevatron continues to disagree with Standard Model predictions at the 3 sigma level. We update the status of the phenomenological light axigluon…
Explaining the t-tbar asymmetry with a light axigluon
Gustavo Marques Tavares, Martin Schmaltz
We propose an axigluon with mass between 400 and 450 GeV and flavor universal couplings to quarks to explain the Tevatron t-tbar forward-backward asymmetry. The model predicts a sm…
