Hunting for QCD instantons at the LHC in events with large rapidity gaps (2021)
Journal Article

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...

Searching for QCD instantons at hadron colliders (2021)
Journal Article
Khoze, V. V., Milne, D. L., & Spannowsky, M. (2021). Searching for QCD instantons at hadron colliders. Physical Review D, 103(1), Article 014017. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.103.014017

QCD instantons are arguably the best motivated yet unobserved nonperturbative effects predicted by the Standard Model. A discovery and detailed study of instanton-generated processes at colliders would provide a new window into the phenomenological e... Read More about Searching for QCD instantons at hadron colliders.
