Tau neutrino as a probe of charged non-standard interactions at DUNE

In this work, we study the influence of charged-current non-standard interactions (CC-NSI) at a DUNE-like experiment. We are particularly interested in the tau neutrino channel accessible at DUNE, given the higher energy neutrino flux expected to be achieved by the experiment. We focus on CC-NSI that may affect the pion decay, the primary source of neutrinos for DUNE. We show that the expected sensitivity at the near detector may supersede the present bounds coming directly from pion decay by one order of magnitude.

Two-loop renormalisation of gauge theories in $4D$ Implicit Regularisation and connections to dimensional methods

We compute the two-loop $β$-function of scalar and spinorial quantum electrodynamics as well as pure Yang-Mills and quantum chromodynamics using the background field method in a fully quadridimensional setup using Implicit Regularization (IREG). Moreover, a thorough comparison with dimensional approaches such as conventional dimensional regularization (CDR) and dimensional reduction (DRED) is presented. Subtleties related to Lorentz algebra contractions/symmetric integrations inside divergent integrals as well as renormalisation schemes are carefully discussed within IREG where the renormalisation constants are fully defined as basic divergent integrals to arbitrary loop order. Moreover, we confirm the hypothesis that momentum routing invariance in the loops of Feynman diagrams implemented via setting well-defined surface terms to zero deliver non-abelian gauge invariant amplitudes within IREG just as it has been proven for abelian theories.
