We demonstrate the power of Experimental Mathematics and Symbolic Computation to study intriguing problems on rational difference equations, studied extensively by Difference Equations giants, Saber Elaydi and Gerry Ladas (and their…
The scientific community is currently witnessing an expensive and worldwide race to achieve the highest possible light intensity. Within the next decade this effort is expected to reach nearly $10^{24}\,\mathrm{W}/\mathrm{cm^2}$ in the lab…
After a quick review of the framework for phenomenological analyses of supersymmetry, we summarize current limits on supersymmetric particle masses and discuss strategies for their searches at the Fermilab Tevatron and the LHC. We also…
We discuss the current status of our automatic perturbation theory program as applied to Fermilab Fermions. We give an overview of our methods, a discussion of tree level matching, and one loop results for the coefficients of the higher…
