Heavy-meson semileptonic decays calculations on the lattice are reviewed. The focus is upon obtaining reliable matrix elements. Errors that depend upon the lattice spacing, $a$, are an important source of systematic error. Full $O(a)$…
The traditional methods of estimating the Dark Matter (DM) mass scale crucially depend on the assumptions about the interaction mechanism between the DM and the Standard Model (SM) sectors, making it challenging to achieve precise mass…
We study the production of charm mesons and other charm baryons from quark matter at CERN SPS and RHIC energies. Using quark coalescence models as hadronization mechanism, we predict particle ratios, absolute yields and transverse momentum…
In physics simulation chains, the PHOTOS Monte Carlo program is often used to simulate QED effects in decays of intermediate particles and resonances. The program is based on an exact multiphoton phase space. In general, the matrix element…
Precision measurements of nucleons provide constraints on the Standard Model and can discern the signatures predicted for particles beyond the Standard Model (BSM). Knowing the Standard Model inputs to nucleon matrix elements will be…
We give a comprehensive account of our proposed experimental method of using atoms or molecules in order to measure parameters of neutrinos still undetermined; the absolute mass scale, the mass hierarchy pattern (normal or inverted), the…
Alternative top quark mass determinations can provide inputs to the world average with orthogonal systematic uncertainties and may help to refine the interpretation of the standard method. Among a number of recent results I focus on the…
Precise determination of top-quark pairs is an essential tool for understanding the overall consistency of the standard model (SM) expectations, understanding limited New Physics (NP) models, through spin-spin correlation and polarization…
The study of Standard Model (SM) physics is crucial at the LHC for several reasons. Before any discovery can be claimed a detailed understanding of the detectors should be reached and benchmark SM processes should be measured. A precise…
The masses of quarks and leptons in units of $m_t$ are expressed in powers of $\sigma=\sqrt{m_c/m_t}$. The regularities found suggest specific mass matrices. They reproduce all masses and mixings in striking agreement with observation. A 90…
We make remarks on the Maximum Entropy Method (MEM) for studies of the spectral function of hadronic correlators in finite temperature lattice QCD. We discuss the virtues and subtlety of MEM in the cases that one does not have enough number…
We calculate electromagnetic mass difference of mesons using a method proposed by Duncan {\it et al}. The RG-improved gauge action and the non-compact Abelian gauge action are employed to generate configurations. Quark propagators in the…
We report on studies of simple matrix elements from simulations with two flavors of sea quarks, both staggered and Wilson. We show the decay constants of vector and pseudoscalar mesons. The effects of sea quarks are small. These simulations…
Strong multiple scattering of the probe in scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) means image simulations are usually required for quantitative interpretation and analysis of elemental maps produced by electron energy-loss…
The method of the top quark mass measurement from $M_{b l}$ distribution in $t \to b l \nu$ decays can be considerably improved if applying the technique of moments and proceeding to moments of high degree. At the LHC this allows one to…
The electromagnetic (EM) form fators of the pseudoscalar and vector mesons are calculated in the light-front framework. We extract these form factors from the relevant matrix elements directly, instead of choosing the Breit frame. The…
Under the framework of the Bethe-Salpeter (B.S.) wave functions and the Mandelstam formalism as well, to make ``instantaneous approximation'' to a transition matrix element (a current operator sandwiched between two bound-states of double…
We present a lattice-QCD determination of the $\Lambda \to p$ vector and axial-vector form factors, providing theoretical input for studies of the semileptonic decay $\Lambda \to p\ell\bar{\nu}_\ell$. The calculation is carried out on a…
The inclusive same-sign dilepton channel is already recognized as a promising discovery signature for supersymmetry in the early days of the LHC. We point out that it can also be used for precision measurements of sparticle masses after the…
The MILC Collaboration has completed production running of electromagnetic effects on light mesons using asqtad improved staggered quarks. In these calculations, we use quenched photons in the noncompact formalism. We study four lattice…
