  1. 1. Spinor-Helicity Formalism and ScatteringAmplitudes in Various Dimensions

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Chen Huang; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In recent decades, spinor-helicity formalism has gained popularity as a useful tool for studyingscattering amplitudes in four dimensions. This formalism has been extended to higher dimensions,but there is still much work to be done around its application. READ MORE

  2. 2. 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

  3. 3. MadGraph Implementations of the Chirality-Flow Formalism for QED

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

    Author : Emil Boman; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The chirality-flow formalism has been proven to simplify the calculation of helicity amplitudes, both analytically and in a first numerical implementation developed as an extension of MadGraph5_aMC@NLO. Expanding on this work, two new implementations have been developed. READ MORE

  4. 4. Pure Yang-Mills amplitudes in 5 Dimensions : A study of vector boson amplitudes at 4 and 5 points

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Athanasios Voutouras; [2023]
    Keywords : Yang-Mills; Scattering; Amplitudes; QFT;

    Abstract : In this text we explore the case of pure Yang-Mills amplitudes in 5 spacetime dimensions for vector particles. Extending current toolsets such as the Spinor-Helicity formalism in 5D would be beneficial to the study of the various cases of super Yang-Mills and supergravity. READ MORE

  5. 5. A numerical implementation of the chirality-flow formalism

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Zenny Wettersten; [2022]
    Keywords : chirality-flow; chirality; flow; spinor-helicity; tree-level; diagram; amplitude; generator; numerical; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The chirality-flow formalism has proven to make amplitude calculations in the Standard Model analytically simple in comparison to previously established formalisms. To test the viability of the chirality-flow formalism for numerical implementations, a Chiral Automized Flow Extension (CAFE) for MadGraph5_aMC@NLO has been developed to compare amplitude evaluation time scaling between the two.
