Central instanton production (2022)
Journal Article
Khoze, V., Khoze, V., Milne, D., & Ryskin, M. (2022). Central instanton production. Physical Review D, 105(3), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.105.036008

We study the central production of QCD instantons at hadron colliders in events with two large rapidity gaps. These gaps in rapidity are formed by either Pomeron or photon exchanges or a combination of the two. The kT-factorization formalism is used... Read More about Central instanton production.

Hunting for QCD instantons at the LHC in events with large rapidity gaps (2021)
Journal Article
Khoze, V., Khoze, V., Milne, D., & Ryskin, M. (2021). Hunting for QCD instantons at the LHC in events with large rapidity gaps. Physical Review D, 104(5), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.104.054013

We outline a strategy of how to search for QCD instantons of invariant mass 20–60 GeVin diffractive events in low-luminosity runs at the LHC. We show that, by imposing appropriate selection criteria on the final states, one can select the kinematic r...

Photo-production of a 750 GeV di-photon resonance mediated by Kaluza-Klein leptons in the loop (2016)
Journal Article
Abel, S., & Khoze, V. V. (2016). Photo-production of a 750 GeV di-photon resonance mediated by Kaluza-Klein leptons in the loop. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016(5), Article 063. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep05%282016%29063

We consider the phenomenology of a 750 GeV resonance X which can be produced at the LHC by only photon fusion and subsequently decay into di-photons. We propose that the spin-zero state X is coupled to a heavy lepton that lives in the bulk of a highe...

Dynamical breaking of U(1)_{R} and supersymmetry in a metastable vacuum (2008)
Journal Article
Abel, S., Durnford, C., Jaeckel, J., & Khoze, V. (2008). Dynamical breaking of U(1)_{R} and supersymmetry in a metastable vacuum. Physics Letters B, 661(2-3), 201-209. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2008.01.065

We consider the metastable N=1 QCD model of Intriligator, Seiberg and Shih (ISS), deformed by adding a baryon term to the superpotential. This simple deformation causes the spontaneous breaking of the approximate R-symmetry of the metastable vacuum....
