The Standard Model as an Effective Field Theory

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the challenges that have been overcome in developing EFT methods for LHC studies, and discuss the developing SMEFT and HEFT approaches that are consistent versions of such EFTs, systematically improvable with higher order corrections, and comment on the pseudo-observable approach.

Parton Distribution Functions, $\alpha_s$ and Heavy-Quark Masses for LHC Run II

TL;DR: In this article, a new set of parton distribution functions (ABMP16), the strong coupling constant αs and the quark masses mc, mb and mt were determined in a global fit to next-to-next-toleading order (NNLO) in QCD.

Observation of the Higgs boson decay to a pair of τ leptons with the CMS detector

Albert M. Sirunyan, +2243 more
- 10 Apr 2018 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a measurement of the H→ττ signal strength is performed using events recorded in proton-proton collisions by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2016 at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV.

Search for additional neutral MSSM Higgs bosons in the τ τ final state in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV

Albert M. Sirunyan, +2390 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a search for additional neutral Higgs bosons in the τ τ final state in proton-proton collisions at the LHC was performed in the context of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model (MSSM), using the data collected with the CMS detector in 2016 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1.

Review of Particle Physics

Keith A. Olive, +225 more
- 01 Aug 2014 - 
TL;DR: The review as discussed by the authors summarizes much of particle physics and cosmology using data from previous editions, plus 3,283 new measurements from 899 Japers, including the recently discovered Higgs boson, leptons, quarks, mesons and baryons.

The automated computation of tree-level and next-to-leading order differential cross sections, and their matching to parton shower simulations

TL;DR: MadGraph5 aMC@NLO as discussed by the authors is a computer program capable of handling all these computations, including parton-level fixed order, shower-matched, merged, in a unified framework whose defining features are flexibility, high level of parallelisation and human intervention limited to input physics quantities.

Geant4 developments and applications

TL;DR: GeGeant4 as mentioned in this paper is a software toolkit for the simulation of the passage of particles through matter, it is used by a large number of experiments and projects in a variety of application domains, including high energy physics, astrophysics and space science, medical physics and radiation protection.

The anti-$k_t$ jet clustering algorithm

TL;DR: The anti-k-t algorithm as mentioned in this paper behaves like an idealised cone algorithm, in that jets with only soft fragmentation are conical, active and passive areas are equal, the area anomalous dimensions are zero, the non-global logarithms are those of a rigid boundary and the Milan factor is universal.
