Detection prospects of a low-mass pseudoscalar Higgs in bottom-quark fusion in the NMSSM at the LHC
Results in Physics, 2021 The production of a light pseudoscalar Higgs boson in the NMSSM context at the LHC via bottom-quark fusion, bb¯→a1, followed by the a1→τ+τ- decay mode is discussed. We show that there exist some regions of parameter space of the NMSSM in which a low-mass

Bottom Quark Mass from $\Upsilon$ Sum Rules to ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^3)$ [PDF]
, 2014 We use the ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^3)$ approximation of the heavy-quark vacuum polarization function in the threshold region to determine the bottom quark mass from nonrelativistic $\Upsilon$ sum rules.

Physics Letters B, 2017 We employ the Langevin equation and Wigner function to describe the bottom quark dynamical evolutions and their formation into a bound state in the expanding Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP).

Low-energy matrix elements of heavy-quark currents
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023 In QCD at energies well below a heavy-quark threshold, the heavy-quark vector current can be represented via local operators made of the lighter quarks and of the gluon fields.

Measurement of nonprompt and prompt D0 azimuthal anisotropy in Pb-Pb collisions at √SNN = 5.02 TeV [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 Heavy quarks are primarily produced via initial hard scatterings, and thus carry information about the early stages of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). Measurements of the azimuthal anisotropy of the final-state heavy flavor hadrons provide information ...

Weak decays of bottom-charm baryons: $$\mathcal {B}_{bc}\rightarrow \mathcal {B}_bP$$ B bc → B b P
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2021 After the discovery of the double-charm baryon $$\Xi _{cc}^{++}$$ Ξ cc + + by LHCb, one of the most important topics is to search for the bottom-charm baryons which contain a b quark, a c quark and a light quark.

On the intrinsic bottom content of the nucleon and its impact on heavy new physics at the LHC [PDF]
, 2015 Heavy quark parton distribution functions (PDFs) play an important role in several Standard Model and New Physics processes. Most analyses rely on the assumption that the charm and bottom PDFs are generated perturbatively by gluon splitting and do not ...

Quarkonium production in pp and heavy-ion collisions [PDF]
EPJ Web of ConferencesCampus Frankfurt, 60438 Frankfurt, Germany Abstract. We describe quarkonium production in pp and heavy-ion collisions by using the Remler’s formalism where quarkonium density operator is applied to all possible combination of heavy quark and heavy ...
