The experimental status of direct searches for exotic physics beyond the standard model at the Large Hadron Collider

TL;DR: A plethora of strategies exist to extend the standard model, many of which contain predictions of new particles or dynamics that could manifest in proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

Search for Excited u and d Quarks in Dijet Final States at Future pp Colliders

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that FCC and SppC have great potential for discovery of excited quarks: up to 44.1 (36.3) and 58.4 (47.8) TeV masses for degenerate case ( = ), these values are 45.9 and 60.9 TeV, respectively.

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.

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.

An Introduction to PYTHIA 8.2

TL;DR: Pythia 8.2 is the second main release after the complete rewrite from Fortran to C++, and now has reached such a maturity that it offers a complete replacement for most applications, notably for LHC physics studies.
