Superallowed Nuclear Beta Decays and Precision Tests of the Standard Model

For many decades, the main source of information on the top-left corner element of the Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa quark mixing matrix, V ud , was superallowed nuclear β decays with an impressive 0.01% precision. This precision, apart from experimental data, relies on theoretical calculations in which nuclear structure–dependent effects and uncertainties play a prime role. This review is dedicated to a thorough reassessment of all ingredients that enter the extraction of the value of V ud from experimental data. We try to keep balance between historical retrospect and new developments, many of which occurred in just the past 5 years. They have not yet been reviewed in a complete manner, not least because new results are forthcoming. This review aims to fill this gap and offers an in-depth yet accessible summary of all recent developments.

Higher-order $β$-functions in the Standard Model and beyond

In this contribution we consider the recent computation of the gauge coupling \beta β -function at four loops and the Yukawa matrix \beta β -function at three loops in the most general, renormalizable and four-dimensional quantum field theory. Furthermore, we discuss ambiguities and divergences arising in Yukawa matrix \beta β -functions.

QCD and Standard Model Studies

Our group has focused on using jets in STAR to investigate the longitudinal and transverse spin structure of the proton. We performed measurements of the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry for inclusive jet production that provide the strongest evidence to date that the gluons in the proton with x>0.05 are polarized. We also made the first observation of the Collins effect in pp collisions, thereby providing an important test of the universality of the Collins fragmentation function and opening a new tool to probe quark transversity in the proton. Our studies of forward rapidity electromagnetic jet-like events raise serious question whether the large transverse spin asymmetries that have been seen for forward inclusive hadron production arise from conventional 2 → 2 parton scattering. This is the final technical report for DOE Grant DE-FG02-93ER40765. It covers activities during the period January 1, 2015 through November 30, 2016.

Institutional Computing: Final Report Quantum Effects on Cosmology: Probing Physics Beyond the Standard Model with Big Bang Nucleosynthesis

The current one-year project allocation (w17 burst) supports the continuation of research performed in the two-year Institutional Computing allocation (w14 bigbangnucleosynthesis). The project has supported development and production runs resulting in several publications[1, 2, 3, 4] in peer-review journals and talks. Most signi cantly, we have recently achieved a signi cant improvement in code performance. This improvement was essential to the prospect of making further progress on this heretofore unsolved multiphysics problem that lies at the intersection of nuclear and particle theory and the kinetic theory of energy transport in a system with internal (quantum) degrees of freedom.

Final Scientific/Technical Report- Searches for New Phenomena Beyond the Standard Model and Hunt for New Physics at the Large Hadron Collider

DOE award DE-SC0007863 supports theoretical research in high energy physics. PI and students are NOT a part of any experimental collaboration, even if some works were done in collaboration with experimental colleagues. All research products are in the form of research articles and they are publicly available under inspirehep.net and arxiv.org, which are typical publication methods in high energy physics. No invention or patent is involved with this research. No equipment or hardware is involved with the research under this award (beside a laptop purchased with PI's startup). Some of research outcome is in the form of a computer code, which is available in https://launchpad.net/maddm. This is community effort and anyone has access to the program. Its source is open and anyone can participate in the development. Research outcomes and the code are used by colleagues in high energy physics, including both theorists and experimentalists. Therefore the outcome of research topics under this award supported the High Energy Physics experimental research program, both in understanding the data and in finding new directions for experimental exploration. The research materials are used to train undergraduate students, graduate students and postdoctoral scholars. We summarize research activity under this award in the following section and major products are listed in section 3. Section 4 contains professional presentations given by PI. Other products developed during the award period are in section 5. Summary of expenses, and student/postdoc support are summarized in section 6 and 7, respectively.

Searching for Physics Beyond the Standard Model at the Intensity Frontier (Final Technical Report)

The goals of this project are the goals of the E989 experiment, the new muon g -2 experiment at Fermilab. This experiment will measure the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon with a precision of 0.14 parts-per-million, a factor of four improvement over the previous experimental measurement. The initial proposal envisioned significant contribution to the design, construction, and commissioning of the straw tube tracking system. Significant contributions were made to the design and commissioning, while the bulk of the construction was shifted to other collaborating institutions. Additional scope was undertaken, with the NIU group having primary responsibility for the assembly and commissioning of the experiment’s slow controls system.
