This paper proposes a new way to do event generation and analysis in searches for new physics at the LHC. An abstract notation is used to describe the new particles on a level which better corresponds to detector resolution of LHC…

We demonstrate that some of the suggested five supergravity points for study at the LHC could be approximately derived from perturbative string theories or M-theory, but that charge and colour breaking minima would result. As a pilot study,…

Theoretical issues are discussed for the measurement of the top-mass using jets, including perturbative and non-perturbative effects that relate experimental observables to the Lagrangian mass, and appropriate choices for mass schemes. Full…

There is hope that the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN will tell us about the fate of supersymmetry at the TeVscale. Therefore we might try to identify our expectations for the discovery of SUSY, especially in the first years of…

A handy and extensively used kinematic variable in LHC analyses, especially for golden SUSY signals of multijets plus missing energy, is the Effective Mass, M_eff = sum_j |p_T^j|+ |p_T^miss|. Empirically, the value of M_eff at which the…

We introduce a set of minimal simplified models for dark matter interactions with the Standard Model, connecting the two sectors via either a scalar or pseudoscalar particle. These models have a wider regime of validity for dark matter…

An inclusive search is performed for supersymmetry in final states containing jets and an apparent imbalance in transverse momentum, pt[miss], due to the production of unobserved weakly interacting particles in pp collisions at a…

We report a new possibility of using the $\mct2$ (Constransverse mass) variable for mass measurement in single step decay chains involving missing particles with moderate transverse momentum. We show that its experimental feasibility is…

An inclusive search for supersymmetry in events with at least one b-tagged jet is performed using proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment in 2012 at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The data set size corresponds to an…

We have explored the prospect of probing a neutral scalar ($H$) produced in association with one $b$-quark and decaying either invisibly or into a pair of $b$-quarks at the LHC with centre of mass energy $\sqrt s = 14$ TeV. In this regard,…

A measurement of the underlying activity in scattering processes with a hard scale in the several GeV region is performed in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 0.9 and 7 TeV, using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The…

We propose a new method to evaluate jet substructure observables in inclusive jet measurements, based upon semi-inclusive jet functions in the framework of Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET). As a first example, we consider the jet…

The Sudden Approximation is applied to invert structural data on randomly corrugated surfaces from inert atom scattering intensities. Several expressions relating experimental observables to surface statistical features are derived. The…

The cascade mass reconstruction approach was applied to simulated production of the lightest stop quark at the LHC in the cascade decay $\tilde{g} \to \sTop \, \Top \to \tilde{\chi}_{2}^{0} \, \Top \, \Top \to \tilde{\ell}_{R} \, \ell \,…

We exploit low spatial coherence illumination to dephase time-reversed partial waves outside its finite coherence area, which virtually creates a controllable coherence volume and isolates the minimal number of scattering events from higher…

This thesis describes some of the recent (and some less recent) developments in calculational techniques for scattering amplitudes in quantum field theory. The focus is on on-shell recursion relations in complex momenta and on the use of…

Quantum computing offers a promising route for tackling hard optimization problems by encoding them as Ising models. However, sparse qubit connectivity requires the use of minor-embedding, mapping logical qubits onto chains of physical…

Jets can be used to probe the physical properties of the high energy density matter created in collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Measurements of strong suppression of inclusive hadron distributions and di-hadron…

We present a supersymmetric model where energy scales of a discrete $R$-symmetry breaking ($Z_{6R}$) and cosmic inflation are commonly attributed to the confinement scale of a hidden $Sp(2)$ strong dynamics. Apart from these, SUSY-breaking…

We propose the signal $1b+1l+N_j+\etslash$ along with appropriate selection criteria for the LHC 7 TeV run, where the number of jets $(N_j)$ is $\ge$ 2 or 4. These signals can complement the canonical $Jets + \etslash$ signature since they…
