Opća metoda svođenja za NLO račune u pQCD-u
We discuss a generally applicable and systematic method to represent an arbitrary tensor one-loop Feynman integral, with N external lines and massless propagators, in terms of a basic set of eight scalar Feynman integrals with 2, 3 and 4 external lines. To demonstrate the practicality of the method, we calculate one of the one-loop Feynman diagrams with 6 external lines, which contribute to the hardscattering amplitude of the process γ γ → π + π − at high momentum transfer in the context of pQCD.Raspravljamo sistematičnu metodu koja se može općenito primijeniti za svođenje proizvoljnih tenzorskih Feynmanovih integrala s jednom petljom, na osnovni skup od osam skalarnih Feynmanovih integrala s 2, 3 i 4 vanjske linije. Da bismo objasnili pogodnost ove metode, računamo jedan od Feynmanovih dijagrama s jednom petljom i 6 vanjskih linija koji doprinose amplitudi tvrdog raspršenja procesa γ γ → π + π − za velike prijenose impulsa i u okviru pQCD-a
B, Bs -> K form factors: an update of light-cone sum rule results
We present an improved QCD light-cone sum rule (LCSR) calculation of the B ->
K and Bs -> K form factors, by including SU(3)-symmetry breaking corrections.
We use recently updated K-meson distribution amplitudes which incorporate the
complete SU(3)-breaking structure. By applying the method of the direct
integration in the complex plane, which is presented in a detail, the
analytical extraction of the imaginary parts of LCSR hard-scattering amplitudes
becomes unnecessary and therefore the complexity of the calculation is greatly
reduced. The values obtained for the relevant B_{(s)} -> K form factors are as
follows: f^+_{BK}(0)= 0.36^{+0.05}_{-0.04}, f^+_{B_sK}(0)= 0.30^{+0.04}_{-0.03}
and f^T_{BK}(0)= 0.38\pm 0.05, f^T_{B_sK}(0)= 0.30\pm 0.05. By comparing with
the B -> pi form factors extracted recently by the same method, we find the
following SU(3) violation among the B -> light form factors:
f^+_{BK}(0)/f^+_{B\pi}(0) = 1.38^{+0.11}_{-0.10}, f^+_{B_sK}(0)/f^+_{B\pi}(0) =
1.15^{+0.17}_{-0.09}, f^T_{BK}(0)/f^T_{B\pi}(0) = 1.49^{+0.18}_{-0.06} and
f^T_{B_sK}(0)/f^T_{B\pi}(0) = 1.17^{+0.15}_{-0.11}.Comment: 14 pages, 9 figures, some figures and discussions added; version to

NLO corrections to the deeply virtual meson production revisited: impact on the extraction of generalized parton distributions
We revisit the next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD corrections for
the deeply virtual meson production (DVMP) process, exploring its phenomenology
both in isolation and in a multichannel fit combined with deeply virtual
Compton scattering (DVCS). Our approach involves the conformal partial wave
(CPaW) formalism, which allows for the straightforward inclusion of
higher-order contributions and evolutionary effects. Our findings indicate that
a description of the longitudinal component of the vector meson DVMP
cross-section at high energies is achievable only at NLO within the standard
collinear approach. Furthermore, we demonstrate a simultaneous description of
DIS, DVCS, and DVMP processes, providing insights into the proton structure
described at NLO by unique universal generalized parton distribution (GPD)
functions.Comment: 36 pages, 13 figure
Next-to-leading order corrections to deeply virtual production of pseudoscalar mesons
We complete the perturbative next-to-leading order corrections to the hard scattering amplitudes of deeply virtual meson leptoproduction processes at leading twist-two level by presenting the results for the production of flavor singlet pseudoscalar mesons. The new results are given in the common momentum fraction representation and in terms of conformal moments. We also comment on the flavor singlet results for deeply virtual vector meson production

Wave Energy Disbalance as Generator of Extreme Wave Occurrence in Semi-Enclosed Coastal Waters (Example of Rijeka Bay—Croatia)
The conditions for the occurrence of high waves in front of the Rijeka port in the Rijeka Bay were analyzed. The analysis was carried out on the basis of measured data on the wave rider station located in front of the main breakwater of the port of Rijeka and the results of numerical wave generation modelings for the wider sea area on the spatial scale of the Adriatic basin. The results of the conducted analysis show that the sudden transition in wind direction from the third to the second quadrant (and vice versa), with the simultaneous rapid increase in wind speed, creates the conditions for generating the largest waves in front of the port of Rijeka. The main reason for achieving the highest wave height in these conditions is the unbalanced wind power input with non-developed surface dissipation (white-capping) and quadruplet wave interaction. Situations with a slower increase in wind speed and approximately constant wind direction resulted in the occurrence of smaller wave heights. The direct application of anemometric data for the forcing wind field in the Adriatic basin within the wave generation model results in a more accurate simulation of wave height and wave period development than application of the wind field from the prediction atmospheric model Aladin-Hr. This is due to the fact that the site is located in a semi-enclosed sea area of restricted fetch, and the spatial/temporal resolution of atmospheric data (2 km and 3 h) is not sufficient to resolve the rapid transition in the wind field. In the case of direct application of anemometric data, the white-capping parameterization should be of a non-stationary character
Accessing chiral-even quark generalised parton distributions in the exclusive photoproduction of a pair with large invariant mass in both fixed-target and collider experiments
50 pages, 32 figuresWe compute the exclusive photoproduction of a pair using the collinear factorisation framework, in the kinematic regime where the pair has a large invariant mass. This exclusive channel presents a new avenue for the investigation of GPDs. It is particularly interesting as the high centre of mass energies available at future experiments will allow the study of GPDs at small skewness . We compute the scattering amplitude of the process, at leading twist and leading order in , which is used to estimate its cross-section and linear polarisation asymmetries with respect to the incoming photon, for JLab~12-GeV, COMPASS, future EIC and LHC (in ultra-peripheral collisions) kinematics. We find that the order of magnitude of estimates are sufficiently large for a dedicated experimental analysis to be performed, especially at JLab. We also compare the results from an asymptotic distribution amplitude (DA) to those using a recently proposed \textit{holographic} DA
Probing chiral-even and chiral-odd leading twist quark generalised parton distributions through the exclusive photoproduction of a gamma rho pair
84 pages, 56 figures. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:2212.00655We extend our studies of a new class of exclusive processes using the collinear factorisation framework by considering the exclusive photoproduction of a pair, in the kinematics where the pair has a large invariant mass, {and the outgoing -meson has a sufficiently large transverse momentum to not resonate with the nucleon}. We cover the whole kinematical range from medium energies in fixed target experiments to very large energies of colliders, by considering the experimental conditions of JLab~12-GeV, COMPASS, future EIC and LHC (in ultra-peripheral collisions) cases. One of the main interest in studying the present process is that it provides access to both chiral-even and chiral-odd GPDs, depending on the polarisation of the outgoing -meson, both at leading twist. Our analysis covers both neutral and charged -mesons. We find that the order of magnitude of the obtained cross sections are sufficiently large for a dedicated experimental analysis to be performed, especially at JLab, for both longitudinally and transversely polarised . Furthermore, we compute the linear photon beam polarisation asymmetry {which is} sizeable for a longitudinally polarised meson. These predictions are obtained for both asymptotic distribution amplitude (DA) and the \textit{holographic} DA
