Synopsis A New Formalism for Soft Collinear Effective Theory with Applications by : Raymond Goerke
In this thesis a new formalism for Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) is developed and a new calculation relevant to high-precision studies of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) involving the summation of Sudakov double logarithms is presented. The new formalism of SCET possesses certain desirable properties not manifest in the standard SCET formalism and is constructed in a framework consistent with the traditional effective field theory perspective. In particular, effective theory operators are organized in an expansion of inverse powers of the matching scale such that operator power counting is determined solely by dimensional analysis rather than requiring the introduction of an abstract power-counting parameter. In contrast to the standard formalism, the infrared degrees of freedom in the effective theory are not subdivided into separate modes determined by relative momentum scaling. The lack of separate collinear and ultrasoft modes is combined with a new subtraction prescription which plays the role of the zero-bin subtraction in the standard formalism. The distinction between different sources of subleading corrections in the effective theory is clarified in this formalism, allowing for a simpler organization of the calculation of these subleading corrections. This formalism is first demonstrated by applying it to the study of Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) in the endpoint limit, a process which has been treated several times using SCET. The result and intermediate steps of this calculation are contrasted with previous treatments to demonstrate the relevant features of the new formalism. Next, the calculation of subleading corrections to event shape distributions is addressed. An original calculation of operator anomalous dimensions is presented which will form the basis of future work addressing the current discrepancy in global determinations of the strong coupling constant.

Synopsis Introduction to Soft-Collinear Effective Theory by : Thomas Becher
Among resummation techniques for perturbative QCD in the context of collider and flavor physics, soft-collinear effective theory (SCET) has emerged as both a powerful and versatile tool, having been applied to a large variety of processes, from B-meson decays to jet production at the LHC. This book provides a concise, pedagogical introduction to this technique. It discusses the expansion of Feynman diagrams around the high-energy limit, followed by the explicit construction of the effective Lagrangian - first for a scalar theory, then for QCD. The underlying concepts are illustrated with the quark vector form factor at large momentum transfer, and the formalism is applied to compute soft-gluon resummation and to perform transverse-momentum resummation for the Drell-Yan process utilizing renormalization group evolution in SCET. Finally, the infrared structure of n-point gauge-theory amplitudes is analyzed by relating them to effective-theory operators. This text is suitable for graduate students and non-specialist researchers alike as it requires only basic knowledge of perturbative QCD.

Synopsis Measurement of Higgs Boson Production Cross Sections in the Diphoton Channel by : Ahmed Tarek Abouelfadl Mohamed
This thesis presents the measurement of the Higgs boson cross section in the diphoton decay channel. The measurement relies on proton-proton collision data at a center-of-mass energy √s = 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The collected data correspond to the full Run-2 dataset with an integrated luminosity of 139 fb-1. The measured cross sections are used to constrain anomalous Higgs boson interactions in the Effective Field Theory (EFT) framework. The results presented in this thesis represent a reduction by a factor 2 of the different photon and jet energy scale and resolution systematic uncertainties with respect to the previous ATLAS publication. The thesis details the calibration of electron and photon energies in ATLAS, in particular the measurement of the presampler energy scale and the estimation of its systematic uncertainty. This calibration was used to perform a measurement of the Higgs boson mass in the H → γγ and H → 4l channels using the 36 fb−1 dataset.

Synopsis Heavy Quarkonium Production Phenomenology and Automation of One-Loop Scattering Amplitude Computations by : Hua-Sheng Shao
This book focuses on the study of heavy quarkonium production at high-energy colliders as a useful tool to explain both the perturbative and non-perturbative aspects of quantum choromodynamics. It provides the first comprehensive comparison between the theory and recent experiments and clarifies some longstanding puzzles in the heavy quarkonium production mechanism. In addition, it describes in detail a new framework for implementing precise computations of the physical observables in quantum field theories based on recently developed techniques. It can be used to simulate the complicated collider environment of the Large Hadron Collider at the Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire (CERN). Its accomplishment implies that the Monte Carlo simulations for high-energy physics experiments have reached the limits of precision. It offers readers a wealth of valuable information on the relevant techniques.

Synopsis From My Vast Repertoire...: Guido Altarelli's Legacy by : Stefano Forte
'What makes this collection unusual and refreshing is that it is not the more common ‘Festschrift’ written by specialists for specialists, but a broad set of topical summaries and analyses addressed to a wide readership of particle physicists. Inevitably, some of the sections are more advanced in their treatment than others, but most of the material will be accessible and helpful to researchers at all levels, and in particular to those working on experiments at CERN, where Altarelli spent many years in the theory group. It is hard to do justice to the varied contents of this excellent collection … I can only recommend that anyone involved in particle research should turn to the web for a full description of the richness of material that is included here … There is something here for everyone, and much for most. I’m sure Altarelli would have been pleased with that! The Editors are to be complimented for their initiative in making this unique volume possible.'Contemporary PhysicsGuido Altarelli was a leading figure in 20th century particle physics. His scientific contributions and leadership played a key role in the development of the Standard Model of fundamental interactions, as well as the current search for new physics beyond it, both at and beyond CERN. This book is a collection of original contributions, at the cutting edge of scientific research, by some of the leading theoretical and experimental high-energy physicists currently in the field. These were inspired by Guido's ideas, whether directly or indirectly. This book is ideal for researchers looking to keep up with the latest developments in high-energy physics.

Synopsis Standard Theory Of Particle Physics, The: Essays To Celebrate Cern's 60th Anniversary by : Luciano Maiani
'The editors make a good point in claiming the time has come to upgrade the Standard Model into the ‘Standard Theory’ of particle physics, and I think this book deserves a place in the bookshelves of a broad community, from the scientists and engineers who contributed to the progress of high-energy physics to younger physicists, eager to learn and enjoy the corresponding inside stories.'Carlos LourençoCERN CourierThe book gives a quite complete and up-to-date picture of the Standard Theory with an historical perspective, with a collection of articles written by some of the protagonists of present particle physics. The theoretical developments are described together with the most up-to-date experimental tests, including the discovery of the Higgs Boson and the measurement of its mass as well as the most precise measurements of the top mass, giving the reader a complete description of our present understanding of particle physics.
