Spin Polarisation Oft ̄Tγγproduction At Nlo+Ps With Gosam Interfaced To Madgraph5_Amc@Nlo, Hans Van Deurzen, Rikkert Frederix, Valentin Hirschi, Gionata Luisoni, Pierpaolo Mastrolia, Giovanni Ossola Apr 2016

Spin Polarisation Oft ̄Tγγproduction At Nlo+Ps With Gosam Interfaced To Madgraph5_Amc@Nlo, Hans Van Deurzen, Rikkert Frederix, Valentin Hirschi, Gionata Luisoni, Pierpaolo Mastrolia, Giovanni Ossola

Publications and Research

We present an interface between the multipurpose Monte Carlo toolMadGraph5_aMC@NLOand the automated amplitude generator GoSam. As a first application of this novel framework, we compute the NLO corrections topp→t ̄tHandpp→t ̄tγγmatched to a parton shower. In the phenomenological analyses of these processes, we focus our attention on observables which are sensitive to the polarisation of the top quarks.

The ZnCdMgSe family of II-VI materials has unique and promising characteristics that may be useful in practical applications. For example they can be grown lattice matched to InP substrates with lattice matched bandgaps that span from 2.1 to 3.5 eV, they can be successfully doped n-type, have a large conduction band offset (CBO) with no intervalley scattering present when strained, they have lower average phonon energies, and the InP lattice constant lies in the middle of the ZnSe and CdSe binaries compounds giving room to experiment with tensile and compressive stress. However they have not been studied in detail for …
