We present MadAnalysis 5, a new framework for phenomenological investigations at particle colliders. Based on a C++ kernel, this program allows to efficiently perform, in a straightforward and user-friendly fashion, sophisticated physics…
We present an implementation of the vector boson pair production processes ZZ, W+W- and WZ within the POWHEG BOX V2. This implementation, derived from the POWHEG BOX version, has several improvements over the old one, among which the…
After the recent discovery of a Standard Model Higgs boson-like particle at the LHC, the question of its couplings to known and unknown matter is eminent. In this letter, we present a method that allows for an enhancement in…
Precision measurements at the LHC often require analyzing high-dimensional event data for subtle kinematic signatures, which is challenging for established analysis methods. Recently, a powerful family of multivariate inference techniques…
Fourth-generation storage-ring light sources have achieved transverse emittances approaching the diffraction limit at x-ray wavelengths, while their longitudinal coherence remains limited. Existing laser-modulation schemes can induce strong…
A simple C++ class structure for construction of a Monte Carlo event generators which can produce unweighted events within relativistic phase space is presented. The generator is self-adapting to the provided matrix element and acceptance…
CalcHEP is a package for computation of Feynman diagrams and integration over multi-particle phase space. The main idea prescribed into CalcHEP is to make available passing on from Lagrangians to the final distributions effectively with a…
We propose a computational strategy for NLO+PS simulations in the MC@NLO framework that starts from Born-accurate (LO) events and reweights them to the full MC@NLO S-event weight, while generating H-events separately. We validate the…
Next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD predictions for the production of heavy quarks in proton-proton collisions are presented within three different approaches to quark mass, resummation and fragmentation effects. In particular, new NLO and…
We discuss the theoretical bases that underpin the automation of the computations of tree-level and next-to-leading order cross sections, of their matching to parton shower simulations, and of the merging of matched samples that differ by…
We investigate in detail the $\gamma\gamma$ fusion production mechanisms of two neutral Higgs bosons ($h^0A^0$, $ H^0A^0$, $h^0H^0$ and $H^0H^0$) within the framework of the mSUGRA-inspired minimal supersymmetric standard model(MSSM) at an…
Vector-boson fusion and associated production at the LHC can provide key information on the strength and structure of the Higgs couplings to the Standard Model particles. Using an effective field theory approach, we study the effects of…
Physics event generators are essential components of the data analysis software chain of high energy physics experiments, and important consumers of their CPU resources. Improving the software performance of these packages on modern…
We propose a new mechanism for generating small neutrino masses which predicts the relation m_\nu ~ v^4/M^3, where v is the electroweak scale, rather than the conventional seesaw formula m_\nu ~ v^2/M. Such a mass relation is obtained via…
The determination of the Higgs boson trilinear self-coupling ${\lambda}_{3H}$ is a key goal of the LHC physics programme. Its precise measurement will provide unique insight into the scalar potential and the mechanism of electroweak…
As the quality of experimental measurements increases, so does the need for Monte Carlo-generated simulated events - both with respect to the total amount and to their precision. In perturbative methods, this involves the evaluation of…
We illustrate how the Matrix Element Method at Next-to-Leading Order (MEM@NLO) can be used to discriminate between events arising from the production of a Higgs boson, which subsequently decays to a final state consisting of…
We present results for Higgs boson pair production with variations of the trilinear Higgs boson self-coupling at next-to-leading order (NLO) in QCD including the full top quark mass dependence. Differential results at 14 TeV are presented,…
We present a comprehensive black-hole event generator, BlackMax, which simulates the experimental signatures of microscopic and Planckian black-hole production and evolution at the LHC in the context of brane world models with low-scale…
Recently, there is a need for a general-purpose event generator of decays of an elementary particle or a hadron to a state of higher multiplicity ($N > 2$) that is simple to use and universal. We present the structure of such a library to…
