The Large Hadron Collider will provide an unprecedented quantity of collision data right from the start-up. The challenge for the LHC experiments is the quick use of these data for the final commissioning of the detectors, including…
We present a brief overview of the first flavour physics results at the LHC. Cross-section for charm and beauty production have been measured by several experiments and the first competitive results on D and B decays are presented.
In this contribution, the structural modifications of the material and the degradation of devices is modelled and compared with experimental data for more resistivities, temperatures, crystal orientations and oxygen concentrations,…
We consider the implications of current LHC data on new physics with strongly interacting sector(s). We parametrize the relevant interaction Lagrangian and study the best fit values in light of current data. These are then considered within…
Condensates of colored fermions driving electroweak symmetry breaking could give rise to a light pseudoscalar that would show up in the Higgs search at the LHC. The branching ratios of its decay will distinguish it from the Higgs and…
In models with colored particle $\mathcal{Q}$ that can decay into a dark matter candidate $X$, the relevant collider process $pp\to \mathcal{Q}\bar{\mathcal{Q}}\rightarrow X\bar{X}+$jets gives rise to events with significant transverse…
Color octet (pseudo)scalars, if they exist, will be copiously produced at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). However, their detection can become a very challenging task. In particular, if their decay into a pair of top quarks is…
In the colour string model the impact of string percolation on multiplicities, their long-range correlations and average transverse momentum is studied. The multiplicities are shown to be damped by a simple factor which follows from the…
With the advent of the LHC, we will be able to probe New Physics (NP) up to energy scales almost one order of magnitude larger than it has been possible with present accelerator facilities. While direct detection of new particles will be…
Color confinement is only a supposition, which has not been proved in QCD yet. It is proposed here that macroscopic quark gluon plasma in astrophysics could hardly maintain colorless because of causality. The authors expected that the…
The impact on the physics capabilities of the ATLAS detector of possible LHC upgrades is discussed. As a benchmark, an increase in the luminosity by a factor of ten is considered. For comparison, a doubling of the LHC energy is also…
The current status of the theory of and the experimental evidence for color transparency are reviewed. The problems with interpretation of quasielastic scattering on nuclei are discussed to some detail.
At the LHC Multiple Parton Interactions will represent an important feature of the minimum bias and of the underlying event and will give important contributions in many channels of interest for the search of new physics. Different numbers…
An overview of recent developments in \pythia~8 is given. First the new hard diffraction model, which is implemented as a part of the multiparton interactions (MPI) framework, is discussed. Then the new colour reconnection model, which…
Black holes are capable of reflection: there is a finite probability for any particle that approaches the event horizon to bounce back. The albedo of the black hole depends on its temperature and the energy of the incoming particle. The…
At measurements of gamma-radiation spectra from ultra-relativistic electrons in periodic structures, pileup of events in the calorimeter may cause significant deviation of the detector signal from the classically evaluated spectrum. That…
Open issues on the structure of multiple interactions are outlined. An improved model is summarized, with a new approach to correlated parton densities in flavour, colour, longitudinal and transverse momenta, for both hard-scattering…
The effects of antishadowing related to the spin correlations of particles in multiparticle production are discussed. It is shown that significant spin correlations should be expected at the LHC energies.
We discuss forward-backward correlations in the mutliplicity of produced particles in heavy ion collisions. We find the Color Glass Condensate generates distinctive predictions for the long range component of this correlation. In…
Entanglement between the spins of top-quark pairs produced at a collider can be used to test a (generalized) Bell inequality at energies never explored so far. We show how the measurement of a single observable can provide a test of the…
