Photon-pair jet production via gluon fusion at the LHC

Photon-pair direct or jet-associated productions are important for relevant standard model measurement, Higgs and new physics searches at the LHC. The loop-induced gluon-fusion process gg -> γγg, which although formally contributes only at the next-to-next-to-leading order to γγj productions, may get enhanced by the large gluon flux at the LHC. We have checked and confirmed previous results on gg -> γγ, γγg at one loop, using now the traditional Feynman diagram based approach and taking into account the quark mass effects, and further updated them for the 7 and 14 TeV LHC with new inputs and settings. We provide the details and results of the calculations, which involves manipulation of rank-5 pentagon integrals. Our results show that the gluon-fusion process can contribute about 10% of the Born result, especially at small M_{γγ} and PT_{γγ}, and increase further the overall scale uncertainty. Top quark loop effects are examined in detail, which shows importance near or above the threshold M_{γγ} \gsim 2m_t.

Revisiting the B {\to} π ρ, π ω Decays in the Perturbative QCD Approach Beyond the Leading Order

We calculate the branching ratios and CP asymmetries of the $B \to πρ$, $πω$ decays in the perturbative QCD factorization approach up to the next-to-leading-order contributions. We find that the next-to-leading-order contributions can interfere with the leading-order part constructively or destructively for different decay modes. Our numerical results have a much better agreement with current available data than previous leading-order calculations, e.g., the next-to-leading-order corrections enhance the $B^0\rightarrow π^0ρ^0$ branching ratios by a factor 2.5, which is helpful to narrow the gaps between theoretic predictions and experimental data. We also update the direct CP-violation parameters, the mixing-induced CP-violation parameters of these modes, which show a better agreement with experimental data than many of the other approaches.

Gluon Fusion induced Zg and Zgg Productions in the Standard Model at the LHC

We report calculations of the gluon induced Zg and Zgg productions in the Standard Model at the LHC operating at both 7 TeV and 14 TeV collision energy. We present total cross sections and differential distributions of the processes and compare them with the leading and next-to-leading order QCD pp -> Z+1 jet, Z+2 jets results. Our results show that the gluon induced Zg and Zgg productions contribute to pp -> Z+1 jet, Z+2 jets at 1% level.

Contributions from SUSY-FCNC couplings to the interpretation of the HyperCP events for the decay Σ^+ \to p μ^+ μ^-

The observation of three events for the decay $Σ^+ \to p μ^+ μ^-$ with a dimuon invariant mass of $214.3\pm0.5$MeV by the HyperCP collaboration imply that a new particle X may be needed to explain the observed dimuon invariant mass distribution. We show that there are regions in the SUSY-FCNC parameter space where the $A^0_1$ in the NMSSM can be used to explain the HyperCP events without contradicting all the existing constraints from the measurements of the kaon decays, and the constraints from the $K^0-\bar{K}^0$ mixing are automatically satisfied once the constraints from kaon decays are satisfied.
