We define a new set of observables to probe the structure of the underlying event in hadron collisions. We use the conventional definition of the `transverse region' in jet events and, for a fixed window in jet $p_\perp$, propose to measure…
Measurements of hadron production in pp collisions by the ATLAS and CMS experiments are presented, including charged particle transverse momentum, pseudorapidity and event-by-event multiplicity distributions at sqrt(s) = 0.9, 2.36 and 7…
High-quality results have been produced with the first Large Hadron Collider run on high-pT, heavy flavour and heavy ion physics. These results, as well as the most recent data analyses from Tevatron, have been presented and discussed at…
I review the status of today's theoretical description of Standard Model processes relevant for Tevatron and LHC analyses, and of the tools that are used in phenomenological studies. I will also discuss a few recent ideas to further refine…
The experiments at Run 2 of the Tevatron have each accumulated over 1 inverse femtobarn of high-transverse momentum data. Such a dataset allows for the first precision (i.e. comparisons between theory and experiment at the few percent…
I recall some points on the present status of QCD results in the short distance regions and illustrate the case of event shape in QCD radiation
Recent measurements of selected QCD processes at the Tevatron are reviewed and confronted with theoretical calculations. Results on inclusive jet production at large transverse momentum are compared to predictions from next-to-leading order…
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Switzerland became operational in 2009 and has since then produced a plethora of results for proton-proton (pp) collisions. This short review covers results that relates to soft QCD focusing on…
Results are presented from a study of the structure of hadronic events in high-energy e+e- interactions detected by the L3 detector at LEP. Various event shape distributions and their moments are measured at several energy points at and…
These conferences proceedings summarize the experimental findings obtained in small collision systems at the LHC, as presented in the special session on "QGP in small systems?" at the Quark Matter 2015 conference. (The arXiv version is…
A fundamental characteristic of hadron colliders is the abundant production of jets, which then are studied to learn about hard QCD, the proton structure, or nonperturbative effects. In the following the latest results and developments from…
Heavy quarks provide a new dimension to QCD, allowing tests of fundamental theory, the nature of color confinement, and the production of new exotic multiquark states. I also discuss novel explanations for several apparently anomalous…
Collective behaviour has been observed in hadronic measurements of high multiplicity proton+lead collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), as well as in (proton, deuteron, helium-3)+gold collisions at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion…
The LHCb detector with its unique pseudorapidity coverage allows to perform soft-QCD measurements in the kinematic forward region where QCD models have large uncertainties. Selected analyses related to soft-Diffraction will be summarised in…
The formation of hadrons is a fundamental process in nature that can be investigated at particle colliders. As several recent findings demonstrate, with $\mathrm{e^+e^-}$ collisions as a "vacuum-like" reference at one extreme, and central…
I show that particle collider experiments on relativistic nuclear collisions can serve as direct probes of the deformation of the colliding nuclear species. I argue that collision events presenting very large multiplicities of particles and…
We present recently defined jet-observables for hadron-hadron dijet production, which are designed to reconcile the seemingly conflicting theoretical requirement of globalness, which makes it possible to resum them (automatically) at NLL…
This review describes the current status of precision QCD studies at the LHC. We introduce the main experimental and theoretical methods, discussing also their cross-stimulated developments and recent advances. The different types of QCD…
The aim of these lectures is to provide (experimental particle physics Ph.D.) students with an introduction to some of the core concepts and methods of QCD that are relevant in an LHC context.
In this paper I will review a few of the latest experimental measurements of heavy-flavour hadrons presented at the Hard Probes 2018 conference. Results from experiments both at RHIC and at the LHC will be discussed. I will present some of…
