One, {the uniform expansion at EVERY point = acceleration of the Universe} See (Chapter 5 of SUT --- The future of the universe, page 42). But others received Nobel for this in 2011. See {Nobel Prize 2011, Accelerating expansion of the universe was predicted in 1984, http://prebabel.blogspot.com/2011/10/nobel-prize-2011- accelerating-expansion.html } Two, {a vacuum boson should have mass = 125.45 (+/- 1/2) Gev.} 8 But, Peter Higgs got Nobel-physics on this in 2013. Three, G-theory is centered on ‘Cyclic Universes (C-multiverse)’, and this is supported now with observation data: The Planck 2015 and Planck 2013 observations, the results by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP), Atacama Cosmology Tele-scope (ACT) and South Pole Telescope (SPT). Yet, someone is now claiming the credit. 9 Four, predicted {Planck CMB data 1: (dark energy = 69.2; dark matter = 25.8; and visible matter = 4.82)} and the dark flow {= 9%}. This calculation is widely known in the physics community. It was posted at over 10 prominent physics blogs. See Chapter two. But, this is ignored by the mainstream physics community. Five, calculated Alpha: This calculation is posted at over 10 prominent physics blogs. But this is not recognized by the mainstream physics community at this point. Is a verified scientific fact (or easily verifiable fact) still not a truth until it is *ordained* by the current paradigm? How can {137.0359… not equal to 137.0359…}? 10 Six, calculated Cosmology Constant (see Chapter six): Again, this is denied by the mainstream physics community. 11 Obviously, the mainstream physics community is not interested in searching for truth. When it (mainstream physics) is wrong, it simply tries to weasel in and out to protect its interests, and this is Bullcrap (not just being wrong). Thus, describing truths is mostly wasting of time if it is not in the interests of the mainstream paradigm. So, in addition to describing the Nature’s secrets, the key point of this book is talking about the ‘bullcraps’ in the modern science. Pointing out the bullcraps of the mainstream, this book will obviously not be welcome by the current generation. Indeed, this book is not for my contemporary but is for marking the history, as a witness for humanity. The Science Bullcraps Written on November 1, 2015 (See http://blog.talkingphilosophy.com/?p=9017#comment-1383933 ) Is “reality” merely socially constructed: the beliefs, meanings and values available within a culture? Science is a human activity, and it is of course totally socially-biased construction. However, the human bias can never out do the Nature IF the final goal of science is to describe Nature. Religion is definitely 100% culturally biased while the science is socially biased with a self- correction mechanism, making paradigm change when evidences no longer can be explained away by biased ideology: however, the essence of SCIENCE is socially biased, paradigm- centered and biased. I am giving two solid examples here. Example one: George Johnson (columnist of The New York Times) wrote an article (June 22, 2015): {Humankind’s Existentially Lucky Numbers, which states: “Alpha’s value seems no more predictable than digits randomly spit out by a lottery machine: 0.0072973525698. One of the greatest mysteries of physics, the physicist Richard Feynman called it, ‘a magic number that comes to us with no understanding by man.”} Yet, the precise CALCULATION for Alpha was available online for 20 long years (at many prominent physics blogs), see https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/totally-blind-deaf- googlefacebookblogosphere-era-jeh-tween-gong . Socially, the community self-lying can kill 12 this fact easily. Yet, how can {137.0359… not equal to 137.0359…?}. This social bullcrap is just a bullcrap. Example two: Peter Higgs received Nobel of physics in 2013. But, three years after the discovery of the so called ‘Higgs boson’, the Higgs mechanism is not verified. In fact, the newly discovered boson was predicted over 30 years ago in a copyrighted book, and this fact is recently informed to the whole world (CERN, FermiLab, New York Times, etc.) via blogs and twitter. See https://storify.com/Tienzen/thenotifications-on-the-higgs-nonsense-vv Now, this fact was known by over one million street walking persons. These two facts show that SCIENCE is a totally socially biased construction. Yet, the human power is no match to the Nature’s truth. 13 Introduction Religion is all about the self-definition about the ‘meaning’ of one’s life. So, any kind of ‘nonsense’ can be ordinated as golden truth for the meaning of one’s life. And this self- definition is all legit. On the other hand, science claims to be the study of Nature, not any kind of self-definition. So, any science statement which does not agree with Nature is simply WRONG. While ‘nonsense’ is legit in religion, it is bullcrap in science. Of course, science is a human endeavor, prone for errors. Yet, science should have a self-correcting mechanism. Making mistakes in science is normal. Thus, lying to one’s self and dishonesty can be legit behaviors in religions but will definitely be ‘bullcrap’ in science. Today, the modern science has lost this self-correcting (self-introspection) ability. The mission of this book is not talking about the wrongs in science but points out all the ‘bullcraps’ in science. “Bullcrap” is precisely defined with the following attributes in this book: One, lying to one’s self Two, dishonesty Three, uneducable ignorance/the cowardice to hide the dishonesty away. And, I will show at least one SOLID example for each category in this introduction. First, lying to one’s self: On June 22, 2015, George Johnson (from The New York Times) wrote an article “Humankind’s Existentially Lucky Numbers”, which states that the Alpha is not calculable, see, http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/23/science/humankinds-existentially-lucky- numbers.html?_r=0 ). On June 24, 2015, I wrote an article {Totally blind and deaf in this Google/Facebook/blogosphere era, https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/totally-blind-deaf- googlefacebookblogosphere-era-jeh-tween-gong } which shows a formula, check and verifiable by every 8th grade kid. 14 Second, total dishonesty: Then, the major Higgs decaying channel (should account for 60%) is not verified thus far (on December 31, 2016). How can it be Higgs if its major decaying channel is not confirmed? 15 16 On July 4th, 2012, LHC discovered a new boson, and Peter Higgs won the Nobel-physics for it in 2013. I wrote an article {Higgs Nonsense: enough is enough; https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/before-lhc-run-2-begins-enough-jeh-tween-gong } on July 4, 2015. I also tweeted to CERN directly on August 28, 2015, with hundreds retweet and likes. Third, uneducable ignorance: 17 Every number can always be reached via some numerological formula. But reaching a set (more than two) numbers with a single numerological formula will be difficult, if it is not all impossible. THIS universe is defined with a set STRUCTURE parameters. One, Vacuum (wrongly named as Higgs) boson’s mass: 125.09 +/- 0.24 Gev Two, dark energy/dark mass/visible mass distribution Three, Neff = ??? Four, Hubble constant (Ho) Five, baryongenesis Six, dark flow??? Seven, nature constants (Alpha, Cosmology constant, etc.) The Planck CMB data provides, at least, three STRUCTURE parameters. One, dark energy/dark mass/visible mass: (DE=69.22 % 、D=25.90 % 、V=4.86 %) Two, Neff = 3.04 Three, Hubble constant (Ho) = 66.93 ± 0.62 km s−1 Mpc−1 (measurements from the ancient relic) Here is the magic numerological formula: This numerological formula covers 4 of the 7 STRUCTURE parameters DIRECTLY: {dark energy/dark mass/visible mass distribution; Neff = 3; Hubble constant (Ho)/ dark flow (See http://vixra.freeforums.org/the-dark-flow-t823.html ) and baryongenesis}.

Wallny, examiner Prof. Dr. G. Dissertori, co-examiner 2020 Searches for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) are a main focus of the physics program at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. I present in this thesis two searches for supersymmetry (SUSY), using data collected with the Compact Muon Solenoid detector. The first search is a broad range search for SUSY in the tails of the stransverse mass distribution MT2. Data collected in the year 2016 corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 are used to obtain data driven estimates of the Z νν, lost ! leptons and QCD multijet backgrounds. No sign of SUSY has been found. Upper limits on the production cross section of simplified models of SUSY are set. Gluino masses up to 2 TeV are excluded for a massless lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP). Squark masses up to 1 TeV(1:6 TeV) for one (four) light squark type(s) for a massless LSP are excluded. The second search explores strong and electroweak SUSY production through the final state of a Higgs boson decaying to a photon pair analyzing 77.5 fb−1 of integrated luminosity collected in 2016 and 2017.

    Two-loop renormalisation of gauge theories in 4D Implicit Regularisation and connections to dimensional methods A. Cherchiglia,1, ∗ D. C. Arias-Perdomo,1, y A. R. Vieira,2, z M. Sampaio,1, x and and B. Hiller3, { 1CCNH, Universidade Federal do ABC, 09210-580 , Santo André - SP, Brazil 2Universidade Federal do Triângulo Mineiro, Iturama, MG 38280-000, Brazil 3CFisUC, Department of Physics, University of Coimbra, P-3004-516 Coimbra, Portugal. We compute the two-loop β-function of scalar and spinorial quantum electrodynamics as well as pure Yang-Mills and quantum chromodynamics using the background field method in a fully quadridimensional setup using Implicit Regularization (IREG). Moreover, a thorough comparison with dimensional approaches such as conventional dimensional regularization (CDR) and dimensional reduction (DRED) is presented. Subtleties related to Lorentz alge- bra contractions/symmetric integrations inside divergent integrals as well as renormalisation schemes are carefully discussed within IREG where the renormalisation constants are fully defined as basic divergent integrals to arbitrary loop order. Moreover, we confirm the hy- pothesis that momentum routing invariance in the loops of Feynman diagrams implemented via setting well-defined surface terms to zero deliver non-abelian gauge invariant amplitudes within IREG just as it has been proven for abelian theories. I. MOTIVATIONS Unravelling physics beyond the standard model (SM) has entreated theoretical predictions for particle physics precision observables beyond next-to-leading-order (NLO). Such predictions rely on involved Feynman diagram calculations to evaluate scattering amplitudes both in the SM and its extensions. Theoretical models beyond the SM (BSM) can be constructed, for instance, as an extension in the Higgs sector by either changing the number of scalar multiplets or considering the Higgs boson as a composite particle – the so called Composite Higgs Models [1, 2].

  • An Introduction to Jet Substructure and Boosted-Object Phenomenology
    Looking inside jets: an introduction to jet substructure and boosted-object phenomenology Simone Marzani1, Gregory Soyez2, and Michael Spannowsky3 1Dipartimento di Fisica, Universit`adi Genova and INFN, Sezione di Genova, Via Dodecaneso 33, 16146, Italy 2IPhT, CNRS, CEA Saclay, Universit´eParis-Saclay, F-91191 Gif-sur-Yvette, France 3Institute of Particle Physics Phenomenology, Physics Department, Durham University, Durham DH1 3LE, UK arXiv:1901.10342v3 [hep-ph] 17 Feb 2020 Preface The study of the internal structure of hadronic jets has become in recent years a very active area of research in particle physics. Jet substructure techniques are increasingly used in experimental analyses by the Large Hadron Collider collaborations, both in the context of searching for new physics and for Standard Model measurements. On the theory side, the quest for a deeper understanding of jet substructure algorithms has contributed to a renewed interest in all-order calculations in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). This has resulted in new ideas about how to design better observables and how to provide a solid theoretical description for them. In the last years, jet substructure has seen its scope extended, for example, with an increasing impact in the study of heavy-ion collisions, or with the exploration of deep-learning techniques. Furthermore, jet physics is an area in which experimental and theoretical approaches meet together, where cross-pollination and collaboration between the two communities often bear the fruits of innovative techniques. The vivacity of the field is testified, for instance, by the very successful series of BOOST conferences together with their workshop reports, which constitute a valuable picture of the status of the field at any given time.

A challenging design and engineering accomplishment, dissimilar to any previous project, the LHC has inspired communication and collaboration from scientists and engineers all over the world. Despite significant public backlash regarding safety and environmental impact, prior to the opening of the collider, the LHC has allowed physicists to answer questions related to models in quantum physics. This research has then been applied to the development of new technology in a range of fields including medicine and information technology. Despite only having completed a small portion of its aimed research thus far, the LHC has already influenced significant development in particle physics. Background on the Large Hadron Collider Project: CERN’s LHC operates at energy levels seven times greater than any particle accelerator previously made. The collider allows physicists to reproduce conditions existing a billionth of a second after the Big Bang by colliding high-energy protons and ions (Jamieson, 2019).Awards Weighing more than 38,000 tonnes, the LHC consists of a 27-kilometre circle, set one-hundred metresCOPY below ground-level (CERN, 2008). Within this ring, two beams of particles travel in opposite directionsNOT in separate beam pipes (two tubes maintained at ultra-high vacuum).
