Semileptonic decays of $$B_c$$Bc meson to S-wave charmonium states in the perturbative QCD approach [PDF]
Inspired by the recent measurement of the ratio of $$B_c$$Bc branching fractions to $$J/\psi \pi ^+$$J/ψπ+ and $$J/\psi \mu ^+\nu _{\mu }$$J/ψμ+νμ final states at the LHCb detector, we study the semileptonic decays of $$B_c$$Bc meson to the S-wave ground

Precise QCD description of the Higgs boson transverse momentum spectrum
The transverse momentum (pT) distribution of Higgs bosons at hadron colliders enables a detailed probe of its production dynamics and is a key ingredient to precision studies of Higgs boson properties, but receives very large QCD corrections. We obtain a

Shear Viscosity of Quark-Gluon Plasma in Weak Magnetic Field in Perturbative QCD: Leading Log [PDF]
We compute the shear viscosity of two-flavor QCD plasma in an external magnetic field in perturbative QCD at leading log order, assuming that the magnetic field is weak or soft: $eB\sim g^4\log(1/g)T^2$.

Vacuum correlators at short distances from lattice QCD
Non-perturbatively computing the hadronic vacuum polarization at large photon virtualities and making contact with perturbation theory enables a precision determination of the electromagnetic coupling at the Z pole, which enters global electroweak fits ...

Longitudinal Conductivity in Strong Magnetic Field in Perturbative QCD: Complete Leading Order [PDF]
We compute the longitudinal electrical conductivity in the presence of a strong background magnetic field in complete leading order of perturbative QCD, based on the assumed hierarchy of scales αseB≪(mq2,T2)≪eB.

Quark mass relations to four-loop order in perturbative QCD. [PDF]
We present results for the relation between a heavy quark mass defined in the on-shell and minimal subtraction (MS[over ¯]) scheme to four-loop order. The method to compute the four-loop on-shell integral is briefly described and the new results are used

Quantum simulation of colour in perturbative quantum chromodynamics
Quantum computers are expected to give major speed-ups for the simulation of quantum systems. In this work, we present quantum gates that simulate the colour part of the interactions of quarks and gluons in perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD). As a

Nonperturbative QCD, gauge-fixing, Gribov copies, and the lattice [PDF]
Perturbative QCD uses the Faddeev-Popov gauge-fixing procedure, which leads to ghosts and the local BRST invariance of the gauge-fixed perturbative QCD action.

Event-by-event fluctuations in perturbative QCD + saturation + hydro model: pinning down QCD matter shear viscosity in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions [PDF]
We introduce an event-by-event perturbative-QCD + saturation + hydro ("EKRT") framework for ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, where we compute the produced fluctuating QCD-matter energy densities from next-to-leading order perturbative QCD using a ...
