Extending the kinetic mass to higher orders in 1/mQ

A bstract Currently, the kinetic mass is defined in terms of the pole mass and operators at order $$1/{m}_{Q}^{2}$$ , which are known to N 3 LO accuracy in α s . At the same time, the Heavy Quark Expansion (HQE) for inclusive semileptonic decays is known up to and including terms...

Constraining new physics in charm quark associated Higgs boson production events using the Standard Model effective field theory approach

A bstract As the search for observable deviations from the Standard Model of particle physics remains to be of significant interest, effective field theory (EFT) continues to be a popular method to parametrize such effects. In this work, a first-time investigation is performed of...

Crystalline/amorphous silicon and silica Bragg reflectors for gravitational wave detectors

Coating thermal noise is a major source of noise in gravitational wave detection. In order to reduce this noise, we investigate the use of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers as Bragg reflectors. First, we show different architectures, such as multi-SOI as top and bottom layers, in...
