59. The helicity-flow method

Andrew Lifson (Lund University)

It is well-known that the spinor-helicity method can significantly simplify the calculations of both Feynman diagrams and scattering amplitudes. In this work, we attempt to further simplify the Feynman-diagram calculation by converting the spinor-helicity method into a flow method, allowing a one-line journey from Feynman diagram to inner products. The cases of massless QED and QCD will be discussed.

60. Equilibration in QCD with an effective kinetic theory event generator for proton-proton and heavy ion collisions

Robin Törnkvist (Lund University)

This presentation will cover a short introduction of myself and a brief overview of the PhD project that I have recently started working on. This project consists of constructing and implementing a complete event generator for proton-proton, proton-ion and ion-ion collisions in the multi-purpose event generator SHERPA. The main part of the project is to implement an effective kinetic theory...

63. Introducing myself to MCnet collaboration

Mr Simon Luca Villani (University of Göttingen)

05/09/2019, 11:30

I'm going to give a short presentation of my master thesis studies about threshold resummation for double differential cross sections. Afterwords the main lines of this Ph.D. project, about loop induced processes, are introduced.
