Groomed jet mass as a direct probe of collinear parton dynamics
Daniele Anderle, Mrinal Dasgupta, Basem Kamal El-Menoufi +2
We study the link between parton dynamics in the collinear limit and the logarithmically enhanced terms of the groomed jet mass distribution, for jets groomed with the modified mas…
Black holes seeding cosmological phase transitions
Basem Kamal El-Menoufi, Stephan J. Huber, Jonathan P. Manuel
We consider a generic first-order phase transition at finite temperature and investigate to what extent a population of primordial black holes, of variable masses, can affect the r…
What can Black Holes teach us about the IR and UV?
Basem Kamal El-Menoufi, Sonali Mohapatra
Combining insights from both the effective field theory of quantum gravity and black hole thermodynamics, we derive two novel consistency relations to be satisfied by any quantum t…
Near-to-planar three-jet events at NNLL accuracy
Luke Arpino, Andrea Banfi, Basem Kamal El-Menoufi
We extend the ARES method for next-to-next-to-leading-logarithmic (NNLL) QCD resummations to three-jet event shapes in collisions in the near-to-planar limit. In particul…
Quantum corrections to vacuum energy sequestering (with monodromy)
Basem Kamal El-Menoufi, Silvia Nagy, Florian Niedermann +1
Field theory models of axion monodromy have been shown to exhibit vacuum energy sequestering as an emergent phenomenon for cancelling radiative corrections to the cosmological cons…
Gravitational Radiation in Quantum Gravity
Xavier Calmet, Basem Kamal El-Menoufi, Boris Latosh +1
The effective field theory of quantum gravity generically predicts non-locality to be present in the effective action, which results from the low-energy propagation of gravitons an…
