Bremsstrahlung and the underlying event structure
1990
Abstract In this talk we address the problem of the structure of the underlying event and its dependence upon a specific trigger. Generally speaking, events selected without any special trigger, like the minimum bias events, need not have the same characteristics as those selected by the jet trigger or through the W and Z-boson selection criteria. We use perturbative QCD in order to unfold part of the structure. In particular we concentrate on the contribution to the underlying event structure which comes from initial state bremsstrahlung. In the present paper we discuss the relationship between transverse momentum and transverse energy for W and Z-boson production both in the low as well a…
Perturbative BF-Yang–Mills theory on noncommutative
2000
A U(1) BF-Yang-Mills theory on noncommutative ${\mathbb{R}}^4$ is presented and in this formulation the U(1) Yang-Mills theory on noncommutative ${\mathbb{R}}^4$ is seen as a deformation of the pure BF theory. Quantization using BRST symmetry formalism is discussed and Feynman rules are given. Computations at one-loop order have been performed and their renormalization studied. It is shown that the U(1) BFYM on noncommutative ${\mathbb{R}}^4$ is asymptotically free and its UV-behaviour in the computation of the $\beta$-function is like the usual SU(N) commutative BFYM and Yang Mills theories.
Accurate modeling of weak lensing with the stochastic gravitational lensing method
2011
We revise and extend the stochastic gravitational lensing method (the sGL method) first introduced by Kainulainen and Marra [Phys. Rev. D 80, 123020 (2009)]. Here we include a realistic halo-mass function and density profiles to model the distribution of mass between and within galaxies, galaxy groups, and galaxy clusters. We also introduce a modeling of the filamentary large-scale structures and a method to embed halos into these structures. We show that the sGL method naturally reproduces the weak lensing results for the Millennium simulation. The strength of the sGL method is that a numerical code based on it can compute the lensing probability distribution function (PDF) for a given inh…
Dalitz plot analysis ofBs0→D¯0K−π+decays
2014
The resonant substructure of B-s(0) -> (D) over bar K-0(-)pi(+) decays is studied with the Dalitz plot analysis technique. The study is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb(-1) of pp collision data recorded by LHCb. A structure at m((D) over bar K-0(-)) approximate to 2.86 GeV/c(2) is found to be an admixture of spin-1 and spin-3 resonances. The masses and widths of these states and of the D-s2*(2573)(-) meson are measured, as are the complex amplitudes and fit fractions for all the (D) over bar K-0(-) and K-pi(-) components included in the amplitude model. In addition, the D-s2*(2573)(-) resonance is confirmed to be spin 2.
Questioning model-independent estimates of 2 νββ decay rates
2000
Abstract In this work we discuss the validity of recently published results, by Rumyantsev and Urin, concerning nuclear matrix elements of the two-neutrino double-beta decay transitions. These authors claim that these matrix elements can be calculated in a model-independent way. We have re-analyzed their results and extended their formalism to account for proton-neutron correlations at the QRPA level of approximation. We have found that the formalism fails in describing the double beta decay observables.
Integral field spectroscopy of the gravitational lens HE1104-1805
2004
We present integral field spectroscopy of the double imaged quasar HE1104-1805 taken with the optical fiber system INTEGRAL-WYFFOS at theWHT telescope. From the spectra of the two components we have measured the continuum and line emission ratios, finding an offset between them that can be related to microlensing. (© 2004 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Muon-capture strength functions in intermediate nuclei of 0νββ decays
2019
Capture rates of ordinary muon capture (OMC) to the intermediate nuclei of neutrinoless double beta ($0\ensuremath{\nu}\ensuremath{\beta}\ensuremath{\beta}$) decays of current experimental interest are computed. The corresponding OMC (capture-rate) strength functions have been analyzed in terms of multipole decompositions. The computed low-energy OMC-rate distribution to $^{76}\mathrm{As}$ is compared with the available data of Zinatulina et al. [Phys. Rev. C 99, 024327 (2019)]. The present OMC computations are performed using the Morita-Fujii formalism by extending the original formalism beyond the leading order. The participant nuclear wave functions are obtained in extended no-core singl…
Comparison of different boost transformations for the calculation of form factors in relativistic quantum mechanics
2002
The effect of different boost expressions, pertinent to the instant, front and point forms of relativistic quantum mechanics, is considered for the calculation of the ground-state form factor of a two-body system in simple scalar models. Results with a Galilean boost as well as an explicitly covariant calculation based on the Bethe-Salpeter approach are given for comparison. It is found that the present so-called point-form calculations of form factors strongly deviate from all the other ones. This suggests that the formalism which underlies them requires further elaboration. A proposition in this sense is made.
Amplitude analysis ofB−→D+π−π−decays
2016
The Dalitz plot analysis technique is used to study the resonant substructures of $B^{-} \to D^{+} \pi^{-} \pi^{-}$ decays in a data sample corresponding to 3.0 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment during 2011 and 2012. A model-independent analysis of the angular moments demonstrates the presence of resonances with spins 1, 2 and 3 at high $D^{+}\pi^{-}$ mass. The data are fitted with an amplitude model composed of a quasi-model-independent function to describe the $D^{+}\pi^{-}$ S-wave together with virtual contributions from the $D^{*}(2007)^{0}$ and $B^{*0}$ states, and components corresponding to the $D^{*}_{2}(2460)^{0}$, $D^{*}_{1}(2680)^{0}$, $D^{*}_…
Multipole compensation scheme for LHC low-beta insertions
1997
The LHC dynamic aperture in Physics conditions is determined by the field errors in the low-b quadrupoles and these errors set a lower limit to the value of b*. The associated aberrations have been computed with the transfer matrix method which gives particularly simple and efficient formulae for the case of low-b insertions. These formulae have been applied to the LHC case to design a multipole compensation system. The efficiency of the method has been assessed by trajectory tracking.
