39. Non-perurbative computation of a U(1) soft function using quantum simulation

Marat Freytsis (University of Oregon)

This talk will discuss how to compute a U(1) soft function using quantum algorithms.

18. Quantum Entanglement and Parton Distribution functions in 1+1D

Dr Varun Vaidya

29/03/2023, 09:30

Calculating Parton Distribution functions(PDFs) analytically has been a long standing problem in Nuclear physics. In this talk, I ll propose a new approach towards solving this problem by borrowing ideas from Quantum information science. In particular, I ll put forward a possible emergent minimum free energy principle based on the quantum entanglement properties of partons making up bound...

23. SCET gravity with fermionic matter

Dr Patrick Hager (MITP, Johannes Gutenberg Universiy Mainz)

29/03/2023, 10:00

Soft-collinear gravity describes the interactions of collinear and soft gravitons with matter and themselves to all orders in the soft-collinear power expansion. It is constructed based on the underlying diffeomorphism invariance and can describe scalar and integer-spin tensorial representations.

In this talk, I present the extension of this framework to include internal gauge symmetries...

42. The $q_T$ spectrum for Higgs production via quark annihilation at N$^3$LL'+ aN$^3$LO

Ms Rebecca von Kuk (DESY)

Due to the limited detector resolution and the challenges involving the tagging of individual quark flavors, it is difficult to measure the Yukawa coupling of bottom, charm and strange quarks from the final state.
A precise prediction of the $q_T$ spectrum for Higgs production via quark annihilation allows to access the Yukawa coupling for bottom and lighter quarks from the initial state as...
