We study the impact of new set of cuts, proposed in our previous works, on the improvement of accuracy of the jet energy calibration with 'p p ->photon+Jet+X' process at LHC. Monte Carlo events produced by the PYTHIA 5.7 generator are used…
We have developed an event generator, named GR@PPA_4b, for the four bottom quark (b bbar b bbar) production processes at PP and PPbar collisions. The program implements all of the possible processes at the tree level within the framework of…
Although recent experimental results in b-->s penguin process seem to be roughly consistent with the standard model predictions, there may be still large possibilities of new physics hiding in this processes. Therefore, here we investigate…
We improve the treatment of Multiple Parton Interactions (MPI) in \textsc{Pythia} by including the \12 mechanism and treating the \22 mechanism in a model-independent way. The \22 mechanism is calculated within the mean field approximation,…
Nonstatistical fluctuation in pseudorapidity ($\eta$), azimuthal ($\phi$), and pseudorapidity-azimuthal ($\eta-\phi$) distribution spectra of primary particles of PYTHIA Monash (default) generated $pp$ events at $\sqrt{s}=$ 2.76, 7, and 13…
We present measurements of the nuclear modification factors RAA and RpA(PYTHIA) of b jets in lead-lead and proton-lead collisions, respectively, using the CMS detector. Jets from b-quark fragmentations are found by exploiting the long…
In this paper we study the particle production at high transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T}>8$ GeV/$c$) in both pp and Pb-Pb collisions at LHC energies. The characterization of the spectra is done using a power-law function and the resulting…
Using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb^{-1}, the ratio of branching fractions of the B0 -> D*- pi+ pi- pi+ decay relative to the B0 -> D*-…
In the era of precision physics measurements at the LHC, efficient and exhaustive estimations of theoretical uncertainties play an increasingly crucial role. In the context of Monte Carlo (MC) event generators, the estimation of such…
We discuss several particle production reactions on nuclei within a BUU transport model. After a short presentation of the model we show our results for the transparency ratio for the nucleon knock-out reaction in different nuclei. The…
In this talk a short overview of $\eta$ and $\eta'$ decays is given with an emphasis on what can be learned for the strong interaction from them. The talk consists of a short introduction to ChPT, a discussion of $\eta\to3\pi$ beyond $p^4$…
Jet cross sections can be in principle compared to simple pQCD calculations, based on the hypothesis of factorization. But often it is useful or even necessary to not only compute the production rate of the very high pt jets, but in…
The cross section for bottom quark production is calculated for the HERA-B experiment. We consider both the order $\alpha_s^3$ cross section and the resummation of soft gluon corrections in all orders of QCD perturbation theory.
In the present work, we investigate the production of $X(4630)$ and $Y(4626)$ in $B^+$ and $B_s^0$ decays, where $X(4630)$ and $Y(4626)$ are considered as the $C-$ parity pigeon pair in the $D_{s}^{\ast+} D_{s1}(2536)^-$ molecular frame.…
We show that the stick-breaking construction of the beta process due to Paisley, et al. (2010) can be obtained from the characterization of the beta process as a Poisson process. Specifically, we show that the mean measure of the underlying…

A transformation group approach to the prior for the parameters of the beta distribution is suggested which accounts for finite sets of data by imposing a limit to the range of parameter values under consideration. The relationship between…
