The leading nonperturbative effects to the fine and hyperfine splitting were calculated some time ago. Recently, they have been used in order to obtain realistic numerical results for the lower levels in bottomonium systems. We point out…
I describe how to calculate cross sections for hard-scattering processes in high energy collisions at next to leading order in QCD. I consider infrared-safe quantities and I assume that the scattering amplitudes are known in analytic form…
We give results for the Upsilon spectrum from lattice QCD using an improved version of the NRQCD action for b quarks which includes radiative corrections to kinetic terms at O(v^4) in the velocity expansion. We also include for the first…
Hamiltonian Monte Carlo has emerged as a standard tool for posterior computation. In this article, we present an extension that can efficiently explore target distributions with discontinuous densities. Our extension in particular enables…
We define a new strategy to scan jet substructure in heavy-ion collisions. The scope is multifold: (i) test the dominance of vacuum jet dynamics at early times, (ii) capture the transition from coherent to incoherent jet energy loss, and…
We present a first calculation of the heavy flavor contribution to the longitudinally polarized deep-inelastic scattering structure function $g_1^{Q}$, differential in the transverse momentum or the rapidity of the observed heavy quark $Q$…
At the energies of present and future electron accelerators designed to study the structure of hadrons, there is a regime where hard pion electroproduction proceeds by a perturbatively calculable process in QCD. The process is not the…
We exploit a recent non-perturbative determination of the momentum broadening kernel $C(b_{\bot})$ in impact parameter space \cite{Moore:2021jwe}, to determine the momentum space broadening kernel $C(q_{\bot})$ in high-temperature QCD…
In this article we provide a practical prescription to harness the rigorous microscopic, quantum level descriptions of light-matter systems provided by Hopfield diagonalisation for quantum description of nonlinear scattering. A general…
This overview is devoted to splitting methods, a class of numerical integrators intended for differential equations that can be subdivided into different problems easier to solve than the original system. Closely connected with this class…
We examine diffractive proton-proton scattering p p -> p X and photo- and electroproduction of \rho^0 mesons \gamma^(*) p -> \rho^0 X, where X denotes a proton or a final state, into which the proton can go by diffractive dissociation.…
The identification of parameters in mathematical models using noisy observations is a common task in uncertainty quantification. We employ the framework of Bayesian inversion: we combine monitoring and observational data with prior…
We study the fragmentation of a jet propagating in a dense quark-gluon plasma. Using a leading, double-logarithmic approximation in perturbative QCD, we compute for the first time the effects of the medium on the vacuum-like emissions. We…
We consider a wide class of semi linear Hamiltonian partial differential equa- tions and their approximation by time splitting methods. We assume that the nonlinearity is polynomial, and that the numerical tra jectory remains at least uni-…
I review the basics of the collinear factorization theorem applied primarily to deep inelastic scattering (DIS) involving forward parton distributions (PDFs) and the extensions of this theorem for exclusive processes probing non-forward…
Part I is devoted to the extraction of the QCD coupling from a bound state approach at low energy scales, where unphysical singularities make the RG-improved pQCD useless. Theoretical results on the meson spectrum based on a Bethe-Salpeter…
We describe a new method that is both physically explicable and quantitatively accurate in describing the multifractal characteristics of intermittent events based on groupings of rank-ordered fluctuations. The generic nature of such…
Recent measurements of the $\eta_b(1S)$, the ground state of the $b\bar{b}$ system, show the splitting between it and the $\Up(1S)$ to be 69.5$\pm$3.2 MeV, considerably larger than lattice QCD and potential model predictions, including…
We follow the line of reasoning that hidden broken symmetries are the root of quantum oscillations observed in underdoped superconductors and examine the role of bilayer splitting and incommensuration. This is a view that eschews the notion…
Inclusive semileptonic decays are discussed in the framework of heavy quark effective field theory by employing the short distance expansion in the effective theory. The lowest order term turns out to be the parton model; the higher order…
