The objective of a SEE mission is to support development of unification theory by carrying out sensitive gravitational tests capable of determining whether various alternative theories are compatible with nature. Gravitation is a key…
A working group on detector simulation was formed as part of the high-energy physics (HEP) Software Foundation's initiative to prepare a Community White Paper that describes the main software challenges and opportunities to be faced in the…
Statistical tools have been developed to quantify the agreement between a hypothesis or a model and the observed data for probabilistic phenomena. In this work, we define statistical methods used to measure the properties of the higgs boson…
LHC will offer the opportunity of probing the mass scale of the electro-weak symmetry breaking. Thus we expect to uncover direct manifestations of physics beyond the Standard Model, which will raise new questions that may be elucidated by…
The equivalence theorem is an extremely useful tool to calculate heavy Higgs {\it and} top-quark effects for processes that have center-of-mass-energies (much) larger than the $W$ boson mass. After an explanation of the renormalization…
We present a collection of signatures for physics beyond the standard model that need to be explored at the LHC. The signatures are organized according to the experimental objects that appear in the final state, and in particular the number…
This Report summarizes the proceedings of the 2017 Les Houches workshop on Physics at TeV Colliders. Session 1 dealt with (I) new developments relevant for high precision Standard Model calculations, (II) theoretical uncertainties and…
With the discovery of a particle that seems rather consistent with the minimal Standard Model Higgs boson, attention turns to questions of naturalness, fine-tuning, and what they imply for physics beyond the Standard Model and its discovery…
This paper forms part of a long-term project to put field electron emission (FE) onto a better scientific basis, by seeking reliable quantitative agreement between theory and experiment, especially as regards emission-current values. The…
We present one viewpoint plus some general information on the plans for energy upgrades and physics research at the Jefferson Laboratory.
Realizing the physics programs of the planned and upgraded high-energy physics (HEP) experiments over the next 10 years will require the HEP community to address a number of challenges in the area of software and computing. For this reason,…
Experimental analyses often use jet binning to distinguish between different kinematic regimes and separate contributions from background processes. To accurately model theoretical uncertainties in these measurements, a consistent…
This white paper briefly summarized key conclusions of the recent US Community Study on the Future of Particle Physics (Snowmass 2021) workshop on Software and Computing for Small High Energy Physics Experiments.
Report of the Higgs working group for the Workshop `Physics at TeV Colliders', Les Houches, France, 21 May - 1 June 2001. It contains 7 separate sections: A. Theoretical Developments B. Higgs Searches at the Tevatron C. Experimental…
This White Paper is exploring the potential of intense secondary muon, neutrino, and (hypothetical) light dark matter beams produced in interactions of high-intensity electron beams with beam dumps. Light dark matter searches with the…
A summary is given of the high energy test beam facilities around the world. Attention is placed on the capabilities and availability of each. A short description is given of what kind of additional facilities are required in the future to…
We discuss the current status of LHC physics from the perspective of precision theory predictions for the attendant QCD and EW higher order corrections. We focus on the interplay between the available data and the predictions for these data…
This summary talk reviews the LHC 2003 Symposium, focusing on expectations as we prepare to leap over the current energy frontier into new territory. We may learn from what happened in the two most recent examples of leaping into new energy…
We discuss weighted scoring rules for forecast evaluation and their connection to hypothesis testing. First, a general construction principle for strictly locally proper weighted scoring rules based on conditional densities and scoring…
In this position paper we argue that certain aspects of relevance assessment in the evaluation of IR systems are oversimplified and that human assessments represented by qrels should be augmented to take account of contextual factors and…
