High Energy Physics - Lattice
We present results from lattice QCD calculations for $2^{nd}$ and $4^{th}$ order cumulants of conserved charge fluctuations and correlations, and compare these with various HRG model calculations. We show that differences between HRG and…
We derive machine learning algorithms from discretized Euclidean field theories, making inference and learning possible within dynamics described by quantum field theory. Specifically, we demonstrate that the $\phi^{4}$ scalar field theory…
We present lattice Monte Carlo evidence of stable excitations of isolated static charges in the Higgs phase of the charge $q=2$ abelian Higgs model. These localized excitations are excited states of the interacting fields surrounding the…
We calculate the coupling between a vector resonance and two Goldstone bosons in $SU(2)$ gauge theory with $N_f=2$ Dirac fermions in the fundamental representation. The considered theory can be used to construct a minimal Composite Higgs…
We provide strong evidence that the asymptotically free (1+1)-dimensional non-linear O(3) sigma model can be regularized using a quantum lattice Hamiltonian, referred to as the "Heisenberg-comb", that acts on a Hilbert space with only two…
We investigate the axial U(1) anomaly of two-flavor QCD at temperatures 190--330 MeV. In order to preserve precise chiral symmetry on the lattice, we employ the Mobius domain-wall fermion action as well as overlap fermion action implemented…
We calculate the low-energy constant $L_{10}$ in a two-representation SU(4) lattice gauge theory that is close to a composite-Higgs model. From this we obtain the contribution of the new strong sector to the $S$ parameter. This leads to an…
We develop a flow-based sampling algorithm for $SU(N)$ lattice gauge theories that is gauge-invariant by construction. Our key contribution is constructing a class of flows on an $SU(N)$ variable (or on a $U(N)$ variable by a simple…
We derive relations between finite-volume matrix elements and infinite-volume decay amplitudes, for processes with three spinless, degenerate and either identical or non-identical particles in the final state. This generalizes the…
We continue our study of contour deformation as a practical tool for dealing with the sign problem using the $d$-dimensional Bose gas with non-zero chemical potential as a toy model. We derive explicit expressions for contours up to the…
The remarkable recent progress in the precision of Lattice QCD computations for a number of physical quantities relevant for flavour physics has motivated the introduction of isospin-breaking effects, including in particular electromagnetic…
In recent years, the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon has triggered a lot of activity in the lattice QCD community because a persistent tension of about $3.5~\sigma$ is observed between the phenomenological estimate and the Brookhaven…
We present the first calculation within lattice QCD of excited light meson resonances with $J^{PC} = 1^{--}$, $2^{--}$ and $3^{--}$. Working with an exact SU(3) flavor symmetry, for the singlet representation of pseudoscalar-vector…
A discussion on the electrical conductivity of the quark-gluon plasma as determined by lattice QCD is given. After a reminder of basic definitions and expectations, various methods for spectral reconstruction are reviewed, including the use…
Neutrinoless double-$\beta$ ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay of certain atomic isotopes, if observed, will have significant implications for physics of neutrinos and models of physics beyond the Standard Model. In the simplest scenario, if the mass…
We present the first lattice QCD determination of the $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda^*(1520)$ vector, axial vector, and tensor form factors that are relevant for the rare decays $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda^*(1520)\ell^+\ell^-$. The lattice calculation…
We report on a sub-percent scale determination using the omega baryon mass and gradient-flow methods. The calculations are performed on 22 ensembles of $N_f=2+1+1$ highly improved, rooted staggered sea-quark configurations generated by the…
We present the first lattice-QCD calculation of the kaon valence-quark distribution functions using the large-momentum effective theory (LaMET) approach. The calculation is performed with multiple pion masses with the lightest one around…
The use of lattice tensor representations is explored to investigate the lattice Landau gauge gluon propagator for the pure SU(3) Yang-Mills gauge theory in 4D. The analysis of several tensor bases allows to quantify the completeness of the…
We study the Gluino-Glue operator in the context of Supersymmetric ${\cal N}{=}1$ Yang-Mills (SYM) theory. This composite operator is gauge invariant, and it is directly connected to light bound states of the theory; its renormalization is…
