1203.0207 | Yu-Jie Zhang Dr. | Guang-Zhi Xu, Yi-Jie Li, Kui-Yong Liu, Yu-Jie Zhang | Relativistic Correction to Color Octet J/psi Production at Hadron
Colliders | Published version. Figures and Equations are added | Phys.Rev. D86 (2012) 094017 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.86.094017 | null | hep-ph hep-ex | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ | The relativistic corrections to the color-octet $J/\psi$ hadroproduction at
the Tevatron and LHC are calculated up to $\mathcal{O}(v^2)$ in nonrelativistic
QCD factorization frame. The short distance coefficients are obtained by
matching full QCD with NRQCD results for the partonic subprocess $g+g\to J/\psi
({}^1S_0^{[8]},{}^3S_1^{[8]}, {}^3P_J^{[8]})+g$, $q+\bar{q}\to J/\psi
({}^1S_0^{[8]},{}^3S_1^{[8]}, {}^3P_J^{[8]})+g$ and $g+q({\bar{q}})\to J/\psi
({}^1S_0^{[8]},{}^3S_1^{[8]}, {}^3P_J^{[8]})+q({\bar{q}})$. The short distance
coefficient ratios of relativistic correction to leading order for color-octet
states ${^1}S_{0}^{[8]}$, ${^3}S_{1}^{[8]}$, and ${^3}P_{J}^{[8]}$ at large
$p_T$ are approximately -5/6, -11/6, and -31/30, respectively, for each
subprocess, and it is 1/6 for color-singlet state ${^3}S_{1}^{[1]}$. If the
higher order long distance matrix elements are estimated through velocity
scaling rule with adopting $v^2=0.23$ and the lower order long distance matrix
elements are fixed, the leading order cross sections of color-octet states are
reduced by about a factor of $20\sim40%$ at large $p_T$ at both the Tevatron
and the LHC. Comparing with QCD radiative corrections to color-octet states,
relativistic correction is ignored along with $p_T$ increasing. Using long
distance matrix elements extracted from the fit to $J/\psi$ production at the
Tevatron, we can find the unpolarization cross sections of $J/\psi$ production
at the LHC taking into account both QCD and relativistic corrections are
changed by about $20\sim50%$ of that considering only QCD corrections. These
results indicate that relativistic corrections may play an important role in
$J/\psi$ production at the Tevatron and the LHC.

processes | 10 pages,3 figures, 2 tables | null | null | null | hep-ph | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | Motivated by the most recent measurement of tau polarization in $Z\to

which can have renormalizable kinetic mixing with the standard model $U(1)_Y$
gauge boson field Y. In addition to the kinetic mixing of the dark photon,
denoted as $\sigma$, there may also be mass mixing introduced by the additional
Higgs doublet with a vacuum expectation value (vev) participating in $U(1)_X$
and electroweak symmetry breaking simultaneously. The interaction of the Z
boson with the SM leptons is modified by the introduction of the mixing ratio
parameter $\epsilon$, which quantifies the magnitude of both the mass and
kinetic mixing of the dark photon. Initially, we use the tau lepton as an
example to explore the Z boson phenomenology of the dark photon model with both
kinetic and mass mixing. The goal is to determine the allowed parameter regions
by taking into account constraints from the vector and axial-vector couplings
$g_{V,A}^\tau$, the decay branching ratio $Br(Z\to \tau^- \tau^+)$ and tau
lepton polarization in $Z\to \tau^-\tau^+$. We found that the mixing ratio
plays important role in the Z boson features by choosing different $\epsilon$
values. Furthermore, we aim to generalize our analysis from the tau-lepton case
to include all fermions by conducting global fits. This allows us to identify
viable regions by incorporating relevant fermion constraints and the W/Z mass
ratio. Correspondingly, we obtain the fit results with the kinetic mixing
parameter $\sigma=0.074\pm0.021$, mixing ratio $\epsilon=-1.37\pm0.46$, and
dark photon mass $m_X=275\pm39$ GeV. Our global analysis indicates a preference
for a dark photon mass larger than $m_Z$.

] | We discuss the transverse momentum distribution for the production of massive lepton-pairs in hadron reactions at fixed target and collider energies within the context of next-to-leading order perturbative quantum chromodynamics. For values of the transverse momentum $Q_T$ greater than the pair mass $Q$, $Q_T > Q$, we show that the differential cross section is dominated by subprocesses initiated by incident gluons. Massive lepton-pair differential cross sections are an advantageous source of constraints on the gluon density, free from the experimental and theoretical complications of photon isolation that beset studies of prompt photon production. We compare calculations with data and provide predictions for the differential cross section as a function of $Q_T$ in proton-antiproton reactions at center-of-mass energies of 1.8 TeV, and in proton-nucleon reactions at fixed target and LHC energies. |

production cross section in the projectile-nucleus collisions calculated in the
Color Glass Condensate (CGC) framework. We argue that for the gluon production
cross section (and for gluon transverse momentum spectra and multiplicity) the
inclusion of running coupling corrections brings in collinear singularities due
to final state splittings completely unaffected by CGC resummations. Hence,
despite the saturation/CGC dynamics, the gluon production cross section is not
infrared-safe. As usual, regularizing the singularities requires an infrared
cutoff Lambda_coll that defines a resolution scale for gluons. We specifically
show that the cutoff enters the gluon production cross section in the argument
of the strong coupling constant alpha_s(Lambda_coll^2). We argue that for
hadron production calculations one should be able to absorb the collinear
divergence into a fragmentation function. The singular collinear terms in the
gluon production cross section are shown not to contribute to the energy
density of the produced matter, which is indeed an infrared-finite quantity.

] | We consider the three-loop scattering amplitudes for the production of a pair of photons in quark-antiquark annihilation in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). We use suitably defined projectors to efficiently calculate all helicity amplitudes. We obtain relatively compact analytic results, that we write in terms of harmonic polylogarithms or, alternatively, multiple polylogarithms of up to depth three. This is the first calculation of a three-loop four-point scattering amplitude in full QCD. |

is nonminimally coupled to gravity, S can act both as the inflaton and as
thermal relic dark matter. We obtain the allowed region of the (m_s, m_h)
parameter space which gives a spectral index in agreement with observational
bounds and also produces the observed dark matter density while not violating
vacuum stability or nonperturbativity constraints. We show that, in contrast to
the case of Higgs inflation, once quantum corrections are included the spectral
index is significantly larger than the classical value (n = 0.966 for N = 60)
for all allowed values of the Higgs mass m_h. The range of Higgs mass
compatible with the constraints is 145 GeV < m_h < 170 GeV. The S mass lies in
the range 45 GeV < ms < 1 TeV for the case of a real S scalar with large
quartic self-coupling lambdas, with a smaller upper bound for smaller lambdas.
A region of the parameter space is accessible to direct searches at the LHC via
h-->SS, while future direct dark matter searches should be able to
significantly constrain the model.

hard exclusive processes we evaluate the cross sections for exclusive
pseudoscalar and vector meson production in terms of generalized parton
distributions and meson distribution amplitudes. We investigate the
uncertainties arising from the modeling of the nonperturbative input
quantities. Combining these results with available experimental data, we
compare the cross sections for exclusive channels to that obtained from quark

Using the QCD factorization theorem for hard exclusive processes we evaluate the cross sections for exclusive pseudoscalar and vector meson production in terms of generalized parton distributions and meson distribution amplitudes. We investigate the uncertainties arising from the modeling of the nonperturbative input quantities. Combining these results with available experimental data, we compare the cross sections for exclusive channels to that obtained from quark fragmentation in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering. We find that rho^0 production is the only exclusive channel with significant contributions to semi-inclusive pion production at large z and moderate Q^2. The corresponding contribution to kaon production from the decay of exclusively produced phi and K^* is rather small. |

introduces many fascinating complexities, for which a general organizing
principle is still lacking. We study the structure of multi-reggeon exchanges
in the context of the effective field theory for forward scattering, and derive
their factorization into collinear operators (impact factors) and soft

equations in the effective theory, showing how the anomalous dimensions of the

derive renormalization group equations in the Regge limit purely from a
collinear perspective. The rigidity of the consistency equations provides
considerable insight into the all orders organization of Regge amplitudes in
the effective theory, as well as its relation to other approaches. Along the
way we derive a number of technical results that improve the understanding of
the effective theory. We illustrate this collinear perspective by re-deriving
all the standard BFKL equations for two-Glauber exchange from purely collinear
calculations, and we show that this perspective provides a number of conceptual
and computational advantages as compared to the standard view from soft or
Glauber physics. We anticipate that this formulation in terms of collinear
operators will enable a better understanding of the relation between BFKL and
DGLAP in gauge theories, and facilitate the analysis of renormalization group

during this phase transition the quarks are trapped inside contracting pockets
of the deconfined phase and are compressed enough to interact at a significant
rate, giving rise to a second stage of annihilation that can dramatically
change the resulting dark matter abundance. As a result, the dark matter can be

The annihilation spectrum and its characteristic energies are calculated in the framework of Split Higgsino model. |

scale. We identify the Higgs field as a massless state of the string, which is
indicated by the fact that the bare Higgs mass can be zero around the string
scale. We find that, in the large field region, the Higgs potential is
connected to a runaway vacuum with vanishing energy, which corresponds to
opening up an extra dimension. We verify that such universal behavior indeed
follows from the toroidal compactification of the non-supersymmetric
$SO(16)\times SO(16)$ heterotic string theory. We show that this behavior fits
in the picture that the Higgs field is the source of the eternal inflation. The
observed small value of the cosmological constant of our universe may be
understood as the degeneracy with this runaway vacuum, which has vanishing
energy, as is suggested by the multiple point criticality principle.

towards the possible role of new physics (NP) in $b \to c \tau \bar{\nu}$ and

$U_1(3,1,2/3)$, which is one of the few scenarios that can simultaneously
explain the LFU violation signals both in the charged-current as well as
neutral-current sectors, on the semileptonic decays $B \to (\pi, \rho,

pay our attention to the branching fraction, lepton flavor non-universality
