Electron Angular Distribution in Laser-Assisted X-ray Photoeffect
1981
Calculations are reported of the differential cross section of the laser-assisted X-ray photoeffect from K shells showing that drastic changes occur in the shape of the ejected-electron angular distribution when laser photons are exchanged during the ionisation. This process appears well suited to the study of laser effects and multiphoton exchanges in laser-assisted atomic collisions.

Threshold Neutral Pion Photoproduction on the Proton
2015
The neutral pion photoproduction on the proton near threshold has a very small scattering cross section when compared to the charged channels, which in ChPT is explained by strong cancellations between the lowest order pieces. Therefore it is very sensitive to higher-order corrections of chiral perturbation theory. We perform a fully covariant calculation up to chiral order p^3 and we investigate the effect of the inclusion of the Delta(1232) resonance as an explicit degree of freedom. We show that the convergence improves, leading to a much better agreement with data at a wide range of energies.
Top-quark mass measurements using jet rates at LHC
2013
This work presents a new method to measure the top-quark mass in hadronic collisions[1]. The method uses the sensitivity of the tt̄ + 1-jet production on the top-quark mass. In detail we study the ℛ distribution defined as the tt̄ + 1-jet normalized cross section differential in the invariant mass of the total system and calculated at NLO accuracy. We prove that the ℛ distribution has a high sensitivity to the top-quark mass. Furthermore we investigate and quantify the impact of the dominant theoretical and experimental uncertainties. The results obtained show, that the method has the potential to be competitive in precision with established approaches and allows a complementary measurement…
Semileptonic decays ofBcmesons into charmonium states in a relativistic quark model
2005
We use the framework of a relativistic constituent quark model to study the semileptonic transitions of the ${B}_{c}$ meson into $(\overline{c}c)$ charmonium states where $(\overline{c}c)={\ensuremath{\eta}}_{c}(^{1}S_{0})$, $J/\ensuremath{\psi}(^{3}S_{1})$, ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{c0}(^{3}P_{0})$, ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{c1}(^{3}P_{1})$, ${h}_{c}(^{1}P_{1})$, ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{c2}(^{3}P_{2})$, $\ensuremath{\psi}(^{3}D_{2})$. We compute the ${q}^{2}$ dependence of all relevant form factors and give predictions for their semileptonic ${B}_{c}$ decay modes including also their $\ensuremath{\tau}$ modes. We derive a formula for the polar angle distribution of the charged lepton in the $(l{\ens…
Comparison of theory and experiment
1991
In this section we are finally going to confront experimental data on total cross section, angular distributions and polarization observables with theoretical results in order to establish the present status of our knowledge of this important process. We hope this will enable us to set directions and guidelines for future experimental and theoretical studies, which kind of experiments are needed and what accuracy should be aimed for, where theoretical studies should be extended, on what they should focus and whether some basic assumptions need to be modified. For the comparison we shall use mostly the data of experiments selected in sections 6.3 and 6.4, the relative quantities and the best…
Experimental results for two-particle break-up
1991
In this section we shall review the present status of experiments on two-body photo-disintegration of deuteron up to and above the Δ region. The results of different experiments will be discussed and a guideline will be given for a selection of the experiments to be used in the comparison of experimental data with theoretical results. Moreover, since a large variety of observables exists, which have been studied experimentally, we shall discuss which kind of measured quantities, having a smaller systematic error, can give more accurate information.
