The electro-weak couplings of the top quark are directly accessible in rare "top+X" production processes at the LHC, where top quark pairs or single top quark are produced in associations with bosons. We present a new analysis of the top sector of the Standard Model EFT. The fit is based on a fully NLO parameterization and includes the most recent (differential) results from ATLAS and CMS. We...

We present a study of top quark mass measurements at the t\bar{t} threshold based on CEPC. A centre-of-mass energy scan near two times of the top mass is performed and the measurement precision of top quark mass, width and \alpha_S are evaluated using the t\bar{t} production rates. Realistic scan strategies at the threshold are... -
Adil Jueid (Institute for Basic Science)09/07/2024, 11:40Top quark, QCD, Flavour, Precision ModellingOral presentation (remote)
In this talk, I will discuss the potential discovery of top quark flavor changing neutral current (FCNC) at future linear colliders (LCs). First, I will discuss the theoretical predictions in a class of simplified dark matter models where the rates of top quark FCNC decays are generated by dark-sector particles. I will then discuss the sensitivity of the LCs on the top quark FCNC for some...

An expert team has been setup aiming to provide a firm basis for the projected precision of the top quark mass and width measurements from a scan of the center-of-mass energy through the top quark pair production threshold. The prospects for... -
Prof. Jun Gao (Shanghai JiaoTong University)09/07/2024, 14:00Top quark, QCD, Flavour, Precision ModellingOral presentation (in person)
Fragmentation functions (FFs) are essential non-perturbative inputs for precision calculations of hadron production cross sections in high energy scattering from first principle of QCD. They are usually extracted from global analysis on world data from single inclusive hadron production at lepton colliders, semi-inclusive DIS and pp collisions, e.g., as in recent NPC23 analysis. Future lepton...

Electroweak Precision Measurements are stringent tests of the Standard Model and sensitive probes to New Physics. Accurate studies of the Z-boson couplings to the first-generation quarks could reveal potential discrepancies between the fundamental theory and experimental data. Future e+e- colliders running at the Z pole and around the ZH threshold would be an excellent tool to perform such a...

Our recent work has shown that a novel, much higher granularity
forward calorimetry concept can enable much more detailed and precise
reconstruction than the baseline designs based on LEP luminometers, together
with the capability of electron/positron/photon separation.This new calorimeter concept is designed primarily to maximize the acceptance

We study the quark sector of the universal seesaw model with $SU(2)_L × SU(2)_R × U(1)_{Y'}$ gauge symmetry in the massless limit of the two lightest quark families. This model aims to explain the mass hierarchy of the third family quark by introducing a vector-like quark partner for each quark. In addition to the Standard Model Higgs doublet, we also introduce one right-handed Higgs doublet....

Accurate and fully differential predictions are crucial inputs for the precise experimental analyses at linear colliders and are typically provided by parton shower Monte Carlo programs. The event generator Sherpa with its focus on the inclusion of higher-order EW and QCD effects is available in a new version 3.0 this year and we will summarise its new features in particular where they relate...

We give a status report on new developments within the WHIZARD event generator. Important new features comprise NLO electroweak automation (incl. extension to BSM processes like SMEFT), loop-induced processes and new developments in the UFO interface. We highlight work in progress and further plans, such as the implementation of electroweak PDFs, photon radiation, the exclusive top threshold...

Parton showers are important tools in the event generation chain for future collider. Recently, their formally achieved accuracy has been under extended scrutiny. In this talk I will present a novel take on dipole parton showers [1], resulting in the design of a new parton shower called Alaric that is implemented in the Sherpa framework. I will discuss its resummation properties and show...
