We study the signal of dark matter and photon associated production induced by the vector and axial-vector operators at the LHC, including the QCD next-to-leading order (NLO) effects. We find that the QCD NLO corrections reduce the dependence of the total cross sections on the factorization and renormalization scales, and the K factors increase with the increasing of the dark matter mass, which can be as large as about 1.3 for both the vector and axial-vector operators. Using our QCD NLO results, we improve the constraints on the new physics scale from the results of the recent CMS experiment. Moreover, we show the Monte Carlo simulation results for detecting the gamma + (sic)(T) signal at the QCD NLO level, and present the integrated luminosity needed for a 5 sigma discovery at the 14 TeV LHC. If the signal is not observed, the lower limit on the new physics scale can be set.

Next-to-leading power endpoint factorization and resummation for off-diagonal gluon thrust

M. Beneke, M. Garny, S. Jaskiewicz, J. Strohm, R. Szafron, L. Vernazza, J. Wang

Summary: This study investigates the lack of convergence in the convolution integrals of next-to-leading-power factorization theorems and proposes a factorization formula with terms that are free from endpoint divergences in convolutions. The formula involves renormalized hard, soft, and collinear functions and allows for the resummation of endpoint-divergent SCETI observables using renormalization-group methods. The approach relies on universal properties of the soft and collinear limits, making it a potential paradigm for systematic NLP resummations in other collider physics processes.

Summary: This report describes the physics case, detector requirements, and evolving detector concepts for the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) experimental program. The EIC will be a new facility in the United States with the capability to collide high-energy electron beams with high-energy proton and ion beams, providing access to regions dominated by gluons. The use of polarized beams in the EIC will allow for unprecedented access to the spatial and spin structure of particles. The report aims to advance the physics program and develop detector concepts that meet the requirements for the EIC.

One-loop squared amplitudes for hadronic tW production at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD

Long-Bin Chen, Liang Dong, Hai Tao Li, Zhao Li, Jian Wang, Yefan Wang

Summary: We analytically calculate the one-loop squared amplitudes for tW production at a hadron collider using the differential equations method. After renormalization, we verify that the infrared divergences align with the predicted general structure based on anomalous dimensions. The finite remainder contributes to the next-to-next-to-leading order hard function, an important gradient in the factorization formula of the cross section near the infrared region, which can be utilized for all-order resummation of soft gluon effects or a differential next-to-next-to-leading order calculation based on the phase space slicing method.

Azimuthal decorrelation for photon induced dijet production in ultra-peripheral collisions of heavy ions

Cheng Zhang, Qian-Shun Dai, Ding Yu Shao

Summary: We investigate the azimuthal angular decorrelation of dijet production through photon fusion in ultra-peripheral heavy ion collisions. The cross section of quark-antiquark pair production dependent on impact parameter is derived using the equivalent photon approximation, and the contribution of final-state QCD radiations to the azimuthal angular distribution is calculated within Soft-Collinear Effective Theory. We perform QCD resummation of large logarithms of the azimuthal angle and jet radius at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. Finally, we present the normalized differential cross section for azimuthal decorrelation of the dijet pair and find agreement with measurements from the ATLAS collaboration.

Analytic two-loop master integrals for tW production at hadron colliders. Part II

Jian Wang, Yefan Wang

Summary: We provide analytic results for the two-loop master integrals in hadronic tW production with two massive propagators. The planar integral family is expressed in terms of multiple polylogarithms, while the non-planar integral families are calculated via Taylor series expansion. By finding a proper linear combination of the integral basis, we are able to express the results using multiple polylogarithms or single integrals over multiple polylogarithms up to weight four. These integrals can be computed using the classic Newton-Cotes formulas. Our analytic results are important for the computation of the two-loop amplitudes in tW production.

Precision boson-jet azimuthal decorrelation at hadron colliders

Yang-Ting Chien, Rudi Rahn, Ding Yu Shao, Wouter J. J. Waalewijn, Bin Wu

Summary: By using a recoil-free jet definition, the contamination from soft radiation on the measurement is reduced, and the complication of non-global logarithms is eliminated. We also discussed the factorization in Soft-Collinear Effective Theory and carried out resummation using the renormalization group. After a detailed phenomenological study, we found an enhanced matching correction for high jet pT due to the electroweak collinear enhancement.

Complete two-loop QCD amplitudes for tW production at hadron colliders

Long-Bin Chen, Liang Dong, Hai Tao Li, Zhao Li, Jian Wang, Yefan Wang

Summary: The complete two-loop QCD amplitudes for hadronic tW production have been calculated using a combination of analytical and numerical techniques. Rational transformation of the master integrals is found to obtain a good basis, and the master integrals are computed by solving their differential equations numerically. The finite part of the two-loop squared amplitude is stable in the bulk of the phase space and increases the LO cross section at the 13 TeV LHC by about 3% after phase space integration and convolution with the parton distributions.

Azimuthal asymmetries of muon pair production in ultraperipheral heavy ion collisions

Ding Yu Shao, Cheng Zhang, Jian Zhou, Ya-jin Zhou

Summary: In this paper, we investigate the azimuthal asymmetries of muon pair production in ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions using the joint impact parameter and transverse momentum-dependent framework. By resumming the final state QED radiation effects to all orders in perturbation theory and taking into account the complete muon mass corrections, we provide numerical estimations for the asymmetries in different kinematic regions accessible at RHIC and LHC. We find that the lepton mass effects can significantly modify the asymmetries at relatively large pair transverse momentum at RHIC energy.

Gravitational waves from axions annihilation through quantum field theory

Jing Yang, Fa Peng Huang

Summary: We use the scattering method to calculate the gravitational wave generated by axion annihilation in the axion cloud formed through the superradiance process around the Kerr black hole. By considering axion annihilation into gravitons as a three-body decay process and calculating the corresponding decay width, we obtain the radiation power of the gravitational wave and provide an analytical approximate result accounting for the spin effects of the Kerr black hole. Our study also serves as a cross-check for the numerical results obtained through the traditional method.

Analytic two-loop QCD amplitudes for tW production: Leading color and light fermion-loop contributions

Long -Bin Chen, Liang Dong, Hai Tao Li, Zhao Li, Jian Wang, Yefan Wang

Summary: We present the analytical results of two-loop QCD amplitudes for hadronic tW production, focusing on leading color and light fermion-loop contributions. The calculation of two-loop integrals is performed using the method of canonical differential equations. The results are expressed in terms of multiple polylogarithms and checked by comparing the infrared divergences with predictions from anomalous dimensions. Combining these with previously computed one-loop squared amplitudes, we obtain the hard function relevant to a next-to-next-to-leading order Monte Carlo calculation. We find that the hard function varies slowly in the region with small top-quark velocity but increases dramatically in the region with large top-quark velocity. After phase space integration and convolution with the parton distribution function, the leading color hard function gives a correction of about 5.4% to the leading order cross section, while the light fermion-loop diagrams contribute about -1.4%.

Yongping Li, Fa Peng Huang, Xiao Wang, Xinmin Zhang

Summary: This study quantitatively examines how the primordial density fluctuations are reflected in the anisotropy of the phase transition gravitational wave (PTGW). The findings reveal that the PTGW anisotropy is stronger than the anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background temperature at all scales, and the differences in primordial power spectra are more significant in the angular power spectrum of PTGW anisotropy compared to that of the cosmic microwave background.
