  1. 1. Implementing the chirality-flow formalism for tree-level massless QCD in MadGraph

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Adam Warnerbring; [2023]
    Keywords : Theoretical physics; The chirality-flow formalism; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The chirality-flow formalism provides a simple but efficient way to rewrite and evaluate Feynman diagrams and has recently been shown to also optimize automated numerical scattering matrix element evaluations in massless tree-level QED. In this thesis we extend the numerical QED model to massless tree-level QCD in the MadGraph5_aMC@NLO framework. READ MORE

  2. 2. Path Integrals in Quantum Mechanics and Low-Dimensional QFT

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Johanna Adbo; [2023]
    Keywords : QFT; path integrals; quantum mechanics; kvantfältteori; vägintegraler; kvantmekanik;

    Abstract : The focus of this thesis is to introduce the path integral and some of its applications. One interpretation of quantum mechanics is that a microscopic system which moves from an initial- to a final state moves through each possible intermediate state. READ MORE

  3. 3. On the vector transition form factors in the Ω- → Ξ0 W- decay

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Magnus Bertilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : QCD; Form factors; Vector form factors; Chiral perturbation theory; One-loop diagrams; Hadrons; Hadron physics; Hyperon decay; Hadron structure;

    Abstract : To learn more about the structure of hadrons we study form factors. In the semi-leptonic decay Ω- → Ξ0W- two types of form factors arise namely the vector and axial-vector transition form factors. READ MORE

  4. 4. Calculating scattering amplitudes in φ3 and Yang-mills theory using perturbiner methods

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Daniel Nilsson; Magnus Bertilsson; [2022]
    Keywords : QFT; Quantum; Quantum field theory; scattering amplitudes; Berends Giele Currents; feynman diagrams; n particle scattering;

    Abstract : We calculate tree-level scattering amplitudes in φ^3 theory and Yang-Mills theory by means of the perturbiner expansion. This involves solving the Euler-Lagrange equations of motion perturbatively via a multi-particle ansatz, and using Berends-Giele recursion relations to extract the solution from simple on-shell data.

  5. 5. The Chirality-Flow Method for Massive and Electroweak Amplitudes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Joakim Alnefjord; [2020]
    Keywords : chirality-flow; chirality; flow; spinor-helicity; tree-level; diagram; amplitude; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis I extend the chirality-flow method to the full standard model at tree-level by including massive particles and electroweak interactions. The chirality-flow method is a new diagrammatic method for calculating Feynman diagrams that is based on the spinor-helicity formalism, that before this thesis was written had been worked out for massless QED and QCD at tree-level.
