I review recent theoretical progress on the description of heavy quark, jet and gauge boson production at colliders within perturbative QCD. Particular emphasis is put on the improved understanding of fragmentation phenomena, resummation of…
Top quark physics has been a rich testing ground for the standard model since the top quark discovery in 1995. The large mass of top quark suggests that it could play a special role in searches for new phenomena. In this paper I provide an…
The non-relativistic wave function framework is applied to study the production and decay of the exotic hadrons which can be effectively described as bound states of other hadrons. Employing the factorized formulation, we investigate the…
We cover some current topics in Beyond the Standard Model phenomenology, with an emphasis on collider (particularly Large Hadron Collider) phenomenology. We begin with a review of the Standard Model and some unresolved mysteries that it…
We provide a brief overview of some current experimental and theoretical issues of heavy quark production.
In this proceedings some studies on the prospects of single top production at the Large Hadron Electron Collider (LHeC) and double Higgs production at the Future Circular Hadron Electron Collider (FCC-he) shall be presented. In particular,…
In this contribution the developments in the description of vector boson plus jets signatures at hadron colliders in recent years are summarised. Particular focus is put on its relevance as background to top physics.
Evidence for pair production of a new particle consistent with the Standard Model top quark has been reported recently by groups studying proton anti-proton collisions at 1.8 TeV center of mass energy at the Fermi National Accelerator…
Theoretical predictions for the top quark rare decays are reviewed within and beyond the standard model. Expectations at the CERN Large Hadron Collider are discussed.
We compute, for top quark pair production at the Tevatron and the Large Hadron Collider, the collider-independent forward-backward asymmetries defined in [1] in the standard model at next-to-leading order in QCD, including also…
The present theoretical status of top quark pair production near threshold at (future) $e^+ e^-$ ($\mu^+\mu^-$) colliders is summarized.
We study single top production at linear lepton colliders with $\sqrt{s} = 0.5$, 1 and 3 TeV. A preliminary analysis shows that despite the large $t\bar t$ background at $\sqrt{s} = 0.5$ and 1 TeV it is possible to obtain a good sensitivity…
We reanalyze the production of single photons in S+Au collisions at CERN SPS to investigate: i) the consequences of using a much richer equation of state for hadrons than the one used in an earlier study by us; and, ii) to see if the recent…
These days, as high energy particle colliders become unavailable for testing speculative theoretical ideas, physicists are looking to other environments that may provide extreme conditions where theory confronts physical reality. One such…
We review the prospects for bottom production physics at the LHC.
This talk examines recent progress in collider QCD and some facets of the interplay between these developments and searches for new particles and phenomena at the Tevatron and LHC.
At the LHC, top quarks can be produced singly with a sizeable rate via electroweak interactions. This process probes a limited set of top-quark electroweak couplings, i.e. , the same entering the top-quark decay, yet at higher scales and…
Hadron production in relativistic nuclear collisions is well described in the framework of the statistical hadronization model, over a broad range of collision energies. We outline this for hadrons composed of light (u, d, s) and heavy…
To date, the appearance and resummation of "super-leading" logarithms in hadron-hadron collisions has been studied only for massless parton states. We extend the formalism to include an arbitrary number of massive final states. We derive…
