Mass determination in sequential particle decay chains
B Webber
Jan 19, 2010
A simple method is proposed for determining the masses of new particles in collider events containing a pair of decay chains (not necessarily identical) of the form Z -> Y+1, Y -> X+2, X -> N+3, where 1,2 and 3 are visible but N...

Novel Hybrid Genetic Arithmetic Optimization for Feature Selection and Classification of Pulmonary Disease Images
The difficulty in predicting early cancer is due to the lack of early illness indicators. Metaheuristic approaches are a family of algorithms that seek to find the optimal values for uncertain problems with several implications...
Engineering the Photoresponse of InAs Nanowires.
We report on individual-InAs nanowire optoelectronic devices which can be tailored to exhibit either negative or positive photoconductivity (NPC or PPC). The NPC photoresponse time and magnitude is found to be highly tunable by...

Effects of QCD radiation on inclusive variables for determining the scale of new physics at hadron colliders
A Papaefstathiou, B Webber
Jan 19, 2010
We examine the effects of QCD initial-state radiation on a class of quantities, designed to probe the mass scale of new physics at hadron colliders, which involve longitudinal as well as transverse final-state momenta. In...

Direct numerical evaluation of multi-loop integrals without contour deformation
R Pittau, B Webber
Mar 01, 2022
We propose a method for computing numerically integrals defined via $i \epsilon$ deformations acting on single-pole singularities. We achieve this without an explicit analytic contour deformation. Our solution is then used...
