We report on recent progress on five-loop calculations in perturbative QCD. We discuss the computation of the perturbative quark condensate, decoupling in QCD, and the precision determination of charm and bottom quark masses. For the…
The broad progress in QCD studies during the last years is summarised
This article summarises the physics at future linear colliders. It will be shown that in all studied physics scenarios a 1 TeV linear collider in addition to the LHC will enhance our knowledge significantly and helps to reconstruct the…
We review several results that have been obtained using lattice QCD with the staggered quark formulation. Our focus is on the quantities that have been calculated numerically with low statistical errors and have been extrapolated to the…
We review standard applications of perturbative QCD to baryon production, and argue by examining data that it is generally relevant at high but experimentally feasible momentum transfers. Then we consider some new initiatives, particularly…
The perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD) has been extremely successful in the prediction and description of main properties of quark and gluon jets. There are, however, some problems of the jet calculus with the higher order…
I review recent developments in finite temperature lattice QCD which are useful for the study of heavy-ion collisions. I pay particular attention to studies of the equation of state and the light they throw on conformal symmetry and the…
This talk reviews recent progress in formulating the dynamics of Kaon Physics, within the framework of the 1/Nc-expansion in QCD.
The total cross section for scattering virtual photons at high energy is sensitive to pomeron physics. If the photons are sufficiently virtual, QCD perturbation theory applies, so that the reaction probes the short distance pomeron. We…
In this talk I review some challenges which await perturbative QCD at the Large Hadron Collider. In particular, I consider the underlying event, Monte Carlo methods and next-to-leading order (NLO) calculations.
The current understanding of finite temperature phase transitions in QCD is reviewed. A critical discussion of refined phase transition criteria in numerical lattice simulations and of analytical tools going beyond the mean-field level in…
Recent developments of perturbation theory at finite temperature based on effective field theory methods are reviewed. These methods allow the contributions from the different scales to be separated and the perturbative series to be…
This contribution provides a pedagogical introduction to and review of the current status and ongoing progress in the development of Monte Carlo tools for the calculation and simulation of high-Q^2 processes in hadronic collisions.
These proceedings provide a brief summary of the theoretical topics that were covered at Moriond QCD 2009, including non-perturbative QCD, perturbative QCD at colliders, a small component of physics beyond the standard model and heavy-ion…
This is the Lattice '95 review of recent progress towards accurate QCD simulations using very coarse lattices. This development could have revolutionary implications for low energy (nonperturbative) QCD.
In these conference proceedings, we discuss recent progress in high-order perturbative studies of the thermodynamic and transport properties of dense quark matter. Special emphasis is placed on the introduction of a promising new…
We review recent speculations on power like corrections in QCD which go beyond the standard Operator Product Expansion. Both the theoretical picture underlying these corrections and phenomenological manifestations are discussed in some…
Recent years have seen noteworthy progress in the mathematical formulation of quantum field theory and perturbative string theory. We give a brief survey of these developments. It serves as an introduction to the more detailed collection…
I give a brief introduction to the goals, challenges, and technical difficulties of lattice QCD thermodynamics and present some recent results from the HotQCD collaboration for the crossover temperature, equation of state, and other…
In this proceeding, I summarize results on various new physics extensions of the Standard Model, for models with and without dark matter candidates. I discuss current constraints as well as rates and discovery prospects at future colliders.
