Vector boson production in association with KK modes of the ADD model to NLO in QCD at LHC
Next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the associated production of vector
boson (Z/W) with the the Kaluza-Klein modes of the graviton in large extra
dimensional model at the LHC, are presented. We have obtained various kinematic
distributions using a Monte Carlo code which is based on the two cut off phase
space slicing method that handles soft and collinear singularities appearing at
NLO level. We estimate the impact of the QCD corrections on various observables
and find that they are significant. We also show the reduction in factorization
scale uncertainty when QCD corrections are included.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figure
Unparticle physics in diphoton production at the CERN LHC
We have considered the di-photon production with unparticle at LHC. The
contributions of spin-0 and spin-2 unparticle to the di-photon production are
studied in the invariant mass and other kinematical distributions, along with
their dependencies on the model dependent parameters. The signal corresponding
to the unparticle is significant for moderate coupling constant values.Comment: 17 pages, 15 eps figure
Drell-Yan, ZZ, W+W- production in SM & ADD model to NLO+PS accuracy at the LHC
In this paper, we present the next-to-leading order QCD corrections for
di-lepton, di-electroweak boson (ZZ, W+W-) production in both the SM and the
ADD model, matched to the HERWIG parton-shower using the aMC@NLO framework. A
selection of results at the 8 TeV LHC, which exhibits deviation from the SM as
a result of the large extra-dimension scenario are presented.Comment: 12 pages, 10 figures, search sensitivity for the 14 TeV LHC

Pseudo-scalar Higgs Boson Production at Threshold NLO and NLL QCD
We present the first results on the production of pseudo-scalar through gluon
fusion at the LHC to NLO in QCD taking into account only soft gluon
effects. We have used the effective Lagrangian that describes the coupling of
pseudo-scalar with the gluons in the large top quark mass limit. We have used
recently available quantities namely the three loop pseudo-scalar form factor
and the third order universal soft function in QCD to achieve this. Along with
the fixed order results, we also present the process dependent resummation
coefficient for threshold resummation to NLL in QCD. Phenomenological
impact of these threshold NLO corrections to pseudo-scalar production at
the LHC is presented and their role to reduce the renormalisation scale
dependence is demonstrated.Comment: 34 pages, 17 figure
Soft-collinear effects in prompt photon production
We extend next-to-leading logarithmic threshold and joint resummation for
prompt photon production to include leading collinear effects. The impact of
these effects is assessed for both fixed-target and collider kinematics. We
find them in general to be small, but noticeable.Comment: 14 pages, 12 figures, added comment on fragmentation contribution and
one more reference. Version to appear in Phys. Rev.
Parallel-cascade realizations and approximations of truncated volterra systems
Journal ArticleAbstract This paper introduces parallel-cascade realizations of truncated Volterra systems with arbitrary, but finite order of nonlinearity. Parallel-cascade realizations implement higher-order Volterra systems using parallel and multiplicative combinations of lower-order Volterra systems. Such realizations are very modular and therefore well-suited for VLSI implementation. A Systematic way of approximating higher-order Volterra systems in parallel-cascade form using a reduced number of branches and a bound on the mean-square error in the output signals caused by such approximate realizations are derived in this paper. A variation of the parallel-cascade structure in which a pth order Volterra filter is implemented as a parallel combination of linear filters whose outputs are raised to the pth power is also described in this paper
Adaptive parallel-cascade truncated volterra filters
Journal ArticleAbstract-This paper studies adaptive truncated Volterra filters employing parallel-cascade structures. Parallel-cascade realizations implement higher order Volterra systems a s a parallel connection of multiplicative combinations of lower order truncated Volterra systems. A normalized LMS adaptive filter is developed, and its performance capabilities are evaluated using a series of simulation experiments. The experimental results indicate that the normalized LMS adaptive parallel-cascade Volterra filter has superior convergence properties over several competing structures. This paper also includes an experiment that demonstrates the capability of the parallel-cascade adaptive system to reduce its implementation complexity by using fewer than the maximum number of branches required for the most general realization of the system
