This paper lays out the principles of how Bose-Einstein condensates can modify radioactive decay. We highlight the challenges of many modes and short coherence times due to the $\approx$ MeV energies of the emitted radiation. Recent…
Bose-Einstein correlations and invariant momentum distributions are analyzed for longitudinally expanding finite systems, like jets in elementary particle collisions or systems created in high energy heavy ion reactions. Cross-term…
This paper presents an in-depth mathematical analysis of the Monte Carlo replica method, commonly used in global fitting studies within the high-energy physics theory field. For the first time, we offer a rigorous derivation of the…
Three studies on six-fermion production processes are presented, in which the production of an intermediate-mass Higgs boson, the top-quark physics and the analysis of possible anomalous quartic gauge couplings are considered. A Monte Carlo…
Many extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of charged Higgs bosons. In order to be able to find those particles, an accurate description of their production is needed. In Monte Carlo simulations of charged Higgs boson…
Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of many systems, in particular those with conflicting constraints, can be considerably speeded up by using multicanonical or related methods. Some of these approaches sample with a-priori unknown weight factors.…
Multiparticle boson states, proposed recently for 'independently' emitted pions in heavy ion collisions, are reconsidered in standard second quantized formalism and shown to emerge from a simplistic chaotic current dynamics. Compact…
We discuss various tests of the factorization hypothesis making use of the close relationship between semi-leptonic and factorized nonleptonic decay amplitudes. It is pointed out that factorization leads to truely model-independent…
In the context of topcolor-assisted technicolor (TC2) models, we consider the process $e^{+}e^{-}\to \nu\bar{\nu}\gamma$ and calculate the cross section of this process at leading order.It is shown that the extra U(1) gauge boson…
The covariant operator expansion method used by the Bonn-Gatchina group for the analysis of the meson photoproduction data is extended on the case of meson electro-production reactions. The angular dependence of the partial waves is deduced…
The use of an unfolding procedure is proposed as an alternative method of extracting the $W$ boson mass from the data measured at LEP2, which may improve the accuracy of this measurement. The benefits of the direct unfolding method based on…
By constructing the super-particle representation of the free boson gas, we propose a new statistics in which the particles are non-exclusive. This statistics can be considered as a generalization of Bose-Einstein's. The possible…
Two different techniques for adding additional data sets to existing global fits using Bayesian reweighting have been proposed in the literature. The derivation of each reweighting formalism is critically reviewed. A simple example is…
Boltzmann sampling is commonly used to uniformly sample objects of a particular size from large combinatorial sets. For this technique to be effective, one needs to prove that (1) the sampling procedure is efficient and (2) objects of the…
PROPHECY4f is a Monte Carlo event generator for precise simulations of the Higgs-boson decay H -> WW/ZZ -> 4fermions, supporting leptonic, semileptonic, and four-quark final states. Both electroweak and QCD corrections are included.…
Two measurements are presented of estimators sensitive to the Colour Reconnection effect in WW events at LEP2. The results are compared with various phenomenological Monte Carlo implementations of the effect. A feasibility study is…
We provide a comparative study of the Higgs boson mass measurements based on two approaches to the dileptonic decay of W bosons produced by the Higgs boson decay, one using the kinematic variable M_T^true and the other using the…
Conventional Monte Carlo simulations are stochastic in the sense that the acceptance of a trial move is decided by comparing a computed acceptance probability with a random number, uniformly distributed between 0 and 1. Here we consider the…
In this talk the Higgs boson effects in electroweak precision observables are reviewed and the possibility of indirect information on the Higgs mass from electroweak radiative corrections and precision data is discussed.
We summarize results for the complete one-loop electroweak logarithmic corrections for general processes at high energies and fixed angles. Our results are applicable to arbitrary matrix elements that are not mass-suppressed. We give…
