Exploring phase space with Nested Sampling
David Yallup, Timo Janßen, Steffen Schumann +1
We present the first application of a Nested Sampling algorithm to explore the high-dimensional phase space of particle collision events. We describe the adaptation of the algorith…
Convergent Bayesian Global Fits of 4D Composite Higgs Models
Ethan Carragher, Will Handley, Daniel Murnane +4
Models in which the Higgs boson is a composite pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson offer attractive solutions to the Higgs mass naturalness problem. We consider three such models based on…
A comparison of optimisation algorithms for high-dimensional particle and astrophysics applications
The DarkMachines High Dimensional Sampling Group, Csaba Balázs, Melissa van Beekveld +18
Optimisation problems are ubiquitous in particle and astrophysics, and involve locating the optimum of a complicated function of many parameters that may be computationally expensi…
Simple and statistically sound recommendations for analysing physical theories
Shehu S. AbdusSalam, Fruzsina J. Agocs, Benjamin C. Allanach +72
Physical theories that depend on many parameters or are tested against data from many different experiments pose unique challenges to statistical inference. Many models in particle…
