Bounding the Higgs width at the LHC: Complementary results fromH→WW (2014)
Journal Article

Top-pair production and decay at NLO matched with parton showers (2015)
Journal Article

We present a next-to-leading order (NLO) calculation of tt¯ production in hadronic collisions interfaced to shower generators according to the POWHEG method. We start from an NLO result from previous work, obtained in the zero width limit, where radi... Read More about Top-pair production and decay at NLO matched with parton showers.

Directed polaron propagation in linear polypeptides induced by intramolecular vibrations and external electric pulses (2018)
Journal Article

We study the propagation of α-helix polarons in a model describing the nonadiabatic interaction between an electron and a lattice of quantum mechanical oscillators at physiological temperature. We show that when excited by a subpicosecond electric pu... Read More about Directed polaron propagation in linear polypeptides induced by intramolecular vibrations and external electric pulses.

Evolving black holes in inflation (2018)
Journal Article

We present an analytic, perturbative solution to the Einstein equations with a scalar field that describes dynamical black holes in a slow-roll inflationary cosmology. We show that the metric evolves quasi-statically through a sequence of Schwarzschi... Read More about Evolving black holes in inflation.

NNLO QCD corrections to associated WH production and H → b¯b decay (2018)
Journal Article

We present a computation of the next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) QCD corrections to the production of a Higgs boson in association with a W boson at the LHC and the subsequent decay of the Higgs boson into a b¯b pair, treating the b quarks as mas...

Realistic simulations of galaxy formation in f(R) modified gravity (2019)
Journal Article

Future astronomical surveys will gather information that will allow gravity to be tested on cosmological scales, where general relativity is currently poorly constrained. We present a set of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations that follow galaxy... Read More about Realistic simulations of galaxy formation in f(R) modified gravity.

Implementation of a Cloud-Based Electronic Medical Record to Reduce Gaps in the HIV Treatment Continuum in Rural Kenya (2015)
Journal Article

Background Electronic medical record (EMR) systems are increasingly being adopted to support the delivery of health care in developing countries and their implementation can help to strengthen pathways of care and close gaps in the HIV treatment casc...

GUT precursors and entwined SUSY: The phenomenology of stable nonsupersymmetric strings (2018)
Journal Article

Recent work has established a method of constructing nonsupersymmetric string models that are stable, with near-vanishing one-loop dilaton tadpoles and cosmological constants. This opens up the tantalizing possibility of realizing stable string model... Read More about GUT precursors and entwined SUSY: The phenomenology of stable nonsupersymmetric strings.

Phases of QCD_3 from non-SUSY Seiberg duality and brane dynamics (2018)
Journal Article

We consider a nonsupersymmetric USp Yang-Mills Chern-Simons gauge theory coupled to fundamental flavors. The theory is realised in type-IIB string theory via an embedding in a Hanany-Witten brane configuration which includes an orientifold and antibr...

Open charm production and low x gluons (2018)
Journal Article

We compare the rapidity, y, and the beam energy, ffiffi s p , behaviors of the cross section of the data for D meson production in the forward direction that were measured by the LHCb Collaboration. We describe the observed cross sections using NLO p... Read More about Open charm production and low x gluons.

Extracting analytical one-loop amplitudes from numerical evaluations (2019)
Journal Article

In this article we present a method to generate analytic expressions for the integral coefficients of loop amplitudes using numerical evaluations only. We use highprecision arithmetics to explore the singularity structure of the coefficients and deco... Read More about Extracting analytical one-loop amplitudes from numerical evaluations.

Higgs-boson plus Dijets: Higher-Order Matching for High-Energy Predictions (2018)
Journal Article

Several important processes and analyses at the LHC are sensitive to higher-order perturbative corrections beyond what can currently be calculated at fixed order. The formalism of High Energy Jets (HEJ) calculates the corrections systematically enhan... Read More about Higgs-boson plus Dijets: Higher-Order Matching for High-Energy Predictions.

N3LO corrections to jet production in deep inelastic scattering using the Projection-to-Born method (2018)
Journal Article

Computations of higher-order QCD corrections for processes with exclusive final states require a subtraction method for real-radiation contributions. We present the first-ever generalisation of a subtraction method for third-order (N3LO) QCD correcti...

Quantum anomalies in Ar(1) Toda theories with defects (2019)
Journal Article

We study quantum integrability of ane Toda theories with a line of defect. In particular, we focus on the problem of constructing quantum higher-spin conserved currents in models dened by two A(1) r Toda theories separated by a non-trivial type-I def...

Second order Galilean fluids and Stokes’ law (2018)
Journal Article

We study the second derivative effects on the constitutive relations of an uncharged parity-even Galilean fluid using the null fluid framework. Null fluids are an equivalent representation of Galilean fluids in terms of a higher dimensional relativis... Read More about Second order Galilean fluids and Stokes’ law.

Incoherent transport for phases that spontaneously break translations (2018)
Journal Article

We consider phases of matter at finite charge density which spontaneously break spatial translations. Without taking a hydrodynamic limit we identify a boost invariant incoherent current operator. We also derive expressions for the small frequency be... Read More about Incoherent transport for phases that spontaneously break translations.

The grin of Cheshire cat resurgence from supersymmetric localization (2018)
Journal Article

First we compute the S2 partition function of the supersymmetric CPN−1 model via localization and as a check we show that the chiral ring structure can be correctly reproduced. For the CP1 case we provide a concrete realisation of this ring in terms... Read More about The grin of Cheshire cat resurgence from supersymmetric localization.

Dissipative hydrodynamics with higher-form symmetry (2018)
Journal Article

A theory of parity-invariant dissipative fluids with q-form symmetry is formulated to first order in a derivative expansion. The fluid is anisotropic with symmetry SO(D − 1 − q) × SO(q) and carries dissolved q-dimensional charged objects that couple... Read More about Dissipative hydrodynamics with higher-form symmetry.

Validity of Padé approximations in vacuum polarization at three- and four-loop order (2018)
Journal Article

The heavy-quark contribution to the polarization function Π at higher perturbative orders is presently only known approximately. We scrutinize the accuracy of state-of-the-art approximations at three- and four-loop order. At three loops, we present f...

Refined 3d-3d correspondence (2017)
Journal Article

We explore aspects of the correspondence between Seifert 3-manifolds and 3d N = 2 supersymmetric theories with a distinguished abelian flavour symmetry. We give a prescription for computing the squashed three-sphere partition functions of such 3d N =... Read More about Refined 3d-3d correspondence.
