Cross section and parametrization of charmonium decay

The parametrization forms of charmonium quasi two body decays are discussed in detail in this paper. The symmetry analysis and magnetic transition description are utilized to provide the multi-aspect comprehension of the decay dynamics, including the meson mixing angle, form factor, and $SU(3)$ symmetry breading effect. As the prerequisite, the electromagnetic cross sections involving scalar and pseudoscalar, are calculated for eight final states based on the approach of current algebra. Moreover, the mathematical manipulations of calculation for four kinds of final states are spelled out to illuminate the technique strategy.

Fractional quantum fields with Le'vy paths

We develop a path integral approach to quantum field theory that is defined over the paths of the Le'vy flights possessing a fractal dimension $1<d_f<2$. In standard quantum field theory, the fractality of the Brownian trajectories lead to a dispersion relation of quadric form. While the Le'vy paths lead fractional quantum field theory to a fractional dispersion relation. By considering Le'vy paths in time, we calculate density of states for a massless scalar field with box boundary condition. The density of states show behaviors dual to lower dimensional system, and the corresponding black body radiation has an energy spectrum dual to that in lower dimensional black body radiation. We derive the fractional equations of motion for scalar field, vector field and spinor field in zero temperature. Their propagators have been calculated. Based on above derivation, we calculate the one-loop self-energy of electron in Lev'y paths to show how this scheme works equally in renormalization as dimensional regularization does. Nevertheless, We found that gauge symmetry prevent Dirac spinor field from Le'vy paths and demonstrate that these paths in Dirac spinor field leds to unstable electrons, thus Le'vy paths are overcame by ordinary Brownian paths. While Le'vy paths are permitted in electromagnetic field by gauge symmetry. It led to a non-local phase and interaction with electron where electron charge is a composite quantity rather than a fundamental constant which maybe physically observable.

Exploring $HVV$ amplitudes with $CP$ violation by decomposition and on-shell scattering amplitude methods

$CP$ violation may play an important role in Baryogenesis in early universe, and should be examined at colliders comprehensively. We study $CP$ properties of $HVV$ vertexes between Higgs and gauge boson pairs with defining a $CP$ violation phase angle $ξ$, which indicates the mixture of $CP$-even and $CP$-odd Higgs states in $HVV$ in new physics. A series of $HVV$ amplitudes $H\toγγ, H\toγV\to γ\ell\ell$, and $H\to VV\to 4\ell$ with $CP$ phase angle are studied systematically, which explains explicitly why $CP$ violation could only be probed in $4\ell$ process independently. We get a novel amplitude decomposition relation which illustrates if two preconditions (multilinear momentum dependent vertexes and current $J_μ$ of $V\to \ell^+ \ell^-$ is formally proportional to a photon's polarization vector) are satisfied, an high-point amplitude can be decomposed into a summation of a series of low-point amplitudes. As a practical example, the amplitude of $H\toγV\to γ\ell\ell$, and $H\to VV\to 4\ell$ processes can be decomposed into summation of many $H\toγγ$ amplitudes. Meanwhile, we calculate these amplitudes in the framework of on-shell scattering amplitude method, with considering both massless and massive vector gauge bosons with $CP$ violation phase angle. The above two approaches provides consistent results and exhibit clearly the $CP$ violation $ξ$ dependence in the amplitudes.

Study of $HZZ$ anomalous couplings by angular differential cross sections

Being one of the golden channels for precise measurement of Higgs properties, the process $gg \to H\to ZZ \rightarrow 4l$ provides an opportunity to detect the anomalous $HZZ$ couplings in searching of new physics beyond the Standard Model. In this paper, we adopt the method of spinor helicity amplitudes to calculate the amplitudes of process $gg \to H \to ZZ \rightarrow 2e2μ$ at the LHC in the frame of the effective dimension-6 operators. Signal processes of CP-even and CP-odd anomalous $HVV$ couplings in Higgs on/off-shell region and their interference are simulated by using the package MCFM. The most sensitive angle $ϕ$ to extract the CP violated $HZZ$ coupling coefficients, which is defined as the angle between two $Z$ decay planes in Higgs rest frame, is found for experimental measurements.

Anomalous $H\to ZZ \to 4\ell$ decay and its interference effects at the LHC

We calculate the spinor helicity amplitudes of anomalous $H\to ZZ \to 4\ell$ decay. After embedding these analytic formulas into the $\texttt{MCFM}$ package, we study the interference effects between the anomalous $gg\to H\to ZZ \to 4\ell$ process and the SM processes, which are indispensable in the Higgs off-shell region. Subsequently, the constraints on the anomalous couplings are estimated using LHC experimental data.

Probe $CP$-violating $Hγγ$ coupling through interferometry

The diphoton invariant mass distribution of interference between $gg\to H \to γγ$ and $gg\to γγ$ is almost antisymmetric around the Higgs mass $M_H$. We propose a new observable $A_{\text{int}}$ to quantify this effect, which is a ratio of a sign-reversed integral around $M_H$ ( e.g. $\int^{M_H}_{M_H-5~\mbox{GeV}} -\int_{M_H}^{M_H+5~\mbox{GeV}}$) and the cross section of the Higgs signal. We study $A_{\text{int}}$ both in Standard Model (SM) and new physics with various $CP$-violating $Hγγ$ couplings. The $A_{\text{int}}$ in SM could reach a value of $10\%$, while for $CP$-violating $Hγγ$ couplings $A_{\text{int}}$ could range from $10\%$ to $-10\%$, which is probable to be detected in HL-LHC experiment. The $A_{\text{int}}$ with both $CP$-violating $Hγγ$ and $Hgg$ couplings are also studied and its value range is further extended.

An optimal scheme for top quark mass measurement near $t\bar{t}$ threshold at future $e^{+}e^{-}$ colliders

A simulation of top quark mass measurement scheme near the $t\bar{t}$ production threshold in future $e^{+}e^{-}$ colliders, e.g. the Circular Electron Positron Collider(CEPC), is performed. $χ^2$ fitting method is adopted to determine the number of energy points to be taken and their locations. Our result shows that the optimal energy point is located near the largest slope of the cross section to beam energy and the most efficient scheme is to concentrate all luminosity on this single energy point in one parameter top mass fitting case. This suggests that the so called data driven method can be a best choice for the future real experimental measurement. Conveniently, the top mass statistical uncertainty can also be calculated directly by the error matrix even without any sampling and fitting. Agreement of the above two optimization methods has been checked. Our conclusion is that by taking 50~$fb^{-1}$ total effective integrated luminosity data, the statistical uncertainty of the top potential subtracted mass can be suppressed to about 7~MeV and the total uncertainty is about 30~MeV. This precision will help to identify the stability of the electroweak vacuum at the Planck scale.

$\mathscr{O}(100 GeV)$ Deci-weak $W^\prime/Z^\prime$ at Tevatron and LHC

Recently Tevatron released their measurements on invariant mass spectrum of electron/positron, as well as the di-jet arising from WW+WZ production with one W leptonically decay. Though the statistics is not significant, there are two bumps around 240 GeV and 120-160 GeV respectively. We proposed that the two bumps correspond to the extra light gauge bosons $Z^\prime$ and $W^\prime$, which couple with quarks with the deci-weak strength. In this brief report, we also simulated di-jet invariant mass distribution at the current running LHC.

New Color-Octet Vector Boson Revisit

Motivated by CDF recent measurements on di-jet invariant mass spectrum where di-jet is associated production with charged leptons ($e/μ$) and missing energy, we re-examine the previous proposed massive color-octet axial-vector-like boson $Z_c$. Our simulation showed that the di-jet bump around 120-160 GeV can be induced by $Z_c$ with effective coupling $g_{Z_c q \bar q} =0.2 g_s$ (q represents the quark other than top and $g_s$ is the strong coupling constant). Moreover our numerical investigation indicated that the top quark forward-backward asymmetry $A_{FB}^t$ can be reproduced without distorting shape of differential cross section $dσ/d M_{t\bar t}$, provided that the $Z_c$ and top quark coupling is appropriately chosen ($g_{Z_c t \bar t} \simeq 4.5 g_{Z_c q \bar q}$). Our results also showed that the theoretical $A_{FB}^t$ as functions of $Δy$ and $M_{t\bar t}$ can be consistent with data within $1σ$ and $1.8σ$ respectively.

Edge Charge Asymmetry in Top Pair Production at the LHC

In this brief report, we propose a new definition of charge asymmetry in top pair production at the LHC, namely the edge charge asymmetry (ECA). ECA utilizes the information of drifting direction only for single top (or anti-top) with hadronically decay. Therefore ECA can be free from the uncertainty arising from the missing neutrino in the $t\bar{t}$ event reconstruction. Moreover rapidity $Y$ of top (or anti-top) is required to be greater than a critical value $Y_{\rm C}$ in order to suppress the symmetric $t\bar{t}$ events mainly due to the gluon-gluon fusion process. In this paper ECA is calculated up to next-to-leading order QCD in the standard model and the choice of the optimal $Y_{\rm C}$ is investigated.
