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…

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…

Model Independent Direct Detection Analyses

A. Liam Fitzpatrick, Wick Haxton, Emanuel Katz +2

Following the construction of the general effective theory for dark matter direct detection in 1203.3542, we perform an analysis of the experimental constraints on the full paramet…

The Effective Field Theory of Dark Matter Direct Detection

A. Liam Fitzpatrick, Wick Haxton, Emanuel Katz +2

We extend and explore the general non-relativistic effective theory of dark matter (DM) direct detection. We describe the basic non-relativistic building blocks of operators and di…
