The inclusive decay b→ccs¯ revisited (2013)
Journal Article
Krinner, F., Lenz, A., & Rauh, T. (2013). The inclusive decay b→ccs¯ revisited. Nuclear Physics B, 876(1), 31-54. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nuclphysb.2013.07.028

The inclusive decay rate b →ccs¯ is enhanced considerably due to perturbative QCD corrections. We recalculate the dominant part of the NLO–QCD corrections, because they cannot be reconstructed from the literature and we give the full expressions in t...

D-meson lifetimes within the heavy quark expansion (2013)
Journal Article
Lenz, A., & Rauh, T. (2013). D-meson lifetimes within the heavy quark expansion. Physical Review D, 88(3), Article 034004. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.88.034004

Even if new data indicate that direct CP violation in D -meson decays is compatible with the standard model expectation, the first hints for direct CP violation have triggered a lot of interest, and charm phenomenology will remain an essential part o...

Implications of LHCb measurements and future prospects (2013)
Journal Article
Collaboration, T. L., Bharucha, A., Bigi, I., Bobeth, C., Bobrowski, M., Brod, J., …Zupan, J. (2013). Implications of LHCb measurements and future prospects. The European Physical Journal C, 73, Article 2373. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-013-2373-2

During 2011 the LHCb experiment at CERN collected 1.0 fb−1 of s√=7~TeV pp collisions. Due to the large heavy quark production cross-sections, these data provide unprecedented samples of heavy flavoured hadrons. The first results from LHCb have made a...

Constraints on a fourth generation of fermions from Higgs Boson searches (2013)
Journal Article
Lenz, A. (2013). Constraints on a fourth generation of fermions from Higgs Boson searches. Advances in High Energy Physics, 2013, Article 910275. https://doi.org/10.1155/2013/910275

We review the past and current status of the extension of the standard model (SM) by a fourth generation of fermions. In particular the new results for Higgs boson searches at the LHC and at Tevatron exclude the possibility of having simply a perturb...

What did we learn in theory from the Delta ACP Saga? (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lenz, A., Gersabeck, M., & Parkes, C. (2023, August). What did we learn in theory from the Delta ACP Saga?. Presented at CHARM 2013, Manchester UK

The measurement of CP violation in the charm sector triggered a lot of theoretical activities and re-considerations. Nevertheless currently neither theory nor experiment have reached definite conclusions about the origin of a large CP violating effec...
