Resummation of boson-jet correlation at hadron colliders

We perform a precise calculation of the transverse momentum (${\rightarrow}\atop{q}$ T ) distribution of the boson+jet system in boson production events. The boson can be either a photon, W, Z or Higgs boson with mass mV , and ${\rightarrow}\atop{q}$ T is the sum of the transverse momenta of the boson and the leading jet with magnitude q T = |${\rightarrow}\atop{q}$ T |. Using renormalization group techniques and soft-collinear effective theory, we resum logarithms log(Q/q T ) and log R at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy including the non-global logarithms, where Q and R are respectively the hard scattering energy and the radius of the jet. Specifically, we investigate two scenarios of p$J\atop{T}$ ≲ mV or p$J\atop{T}$ ≳ m V in Z+jet events, and we examine the qT distributions with different jet radii and study the effect of non-global logarithms. In the end we compare our theoretical calculations with Monte Carlo simulations and data from the LHC.

Covariant Spectator Theory and Hadron Structure

We present the first results of a study on meson spectroscopy using a covariant formalism based on the Covariant Spectator Theory (CST). Our approach is derived directly in Minkowski space and it approximates the Bethe-Salpeter equation by taking effectively into account the contributions from both ladder and crossed ladder diagrams in the qq ? interaction kernel. A general Lorentz structure of the kernel is tested and chiral constraints on the kernel are discussed. Results for the pion form factor are also presented.

Geant4 simulations of sampling and homogeneous hadronic calorimeters with dual readout for future colliders

Calorimeters with dual readout measure both scintillation and Cherenkov light produced in their active media. They offer improvements in energy resolution and, therefore, have become increasingly interesting due to the need for precision jet measurements at Higgs factories. Furthermore, this paper presents GEANT4 simulations of single-particle responses in sampling and homogeneous calorimeters, and demonstrates the effect of inclusion of Cherenkov light in the reconstruction of energies.

d + Au hadron correlation measurements at PHENIX

In these proceedings, we discuss recent results from d + Au collisions in PHENIX ridge related measurements and their possible hydrodynamic origin. We present the v 2 at midrapidity and measurements of the pseudorapidity dependence of the ridge, distinguishing between the d-going and Au-going directions. We investigate the possible geometrical origin by comparing v 2 in d + Au to that in p + Pb, Au + Au and Pb + Pb collisions. Future plans to clarify the role of geometry in small collision systems at RHIC are discussed.
