These decays have been suggested as a probe of the Higgs boson couplings to light quarks. No significant excess of events is observed above the background, as expected from the Standard Model. Upper limits at 95\% confidence level were obtained on the branching fractions of the Higgs boson decays to phi gamma and rho gamma of 4.8 x 10(-4) and 8.8 x 10(-4), respectively. The corresponding 95\% confidence level upper limits for the Z boson decays are 0.9 x 10(-6) and 25 x 10(-6) for phi gamma and rho gamma, respectively.}, language = {en} } @article{OPUS4-22086, title = {Search for a new heavy gauge-boson resonance decaying into a lepton and missing transverse momentum in 36 fb\(^{-1}\) of \({pp}\) collisions at root s=13 TeV with the ATLAS experiment}, series = {The European Physical Journal C}, volume = {78}, journal = {The European Physical Journal C}, number = {401}, organization = {The ATLAS Collaboration}, doi = {10.1140/epjc/s10052-018-5877-y}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-220869}, pages = {1-23}, year = {2018}, abstract = {The results of a search for new heavy W' bosons decaying to an electron or muon and a neutrino using proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 13 TeV are presented. The dataset was collected in 2015 and 2016 by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb(-1). As no excess of events above the Standard Model prediction is observed, the results are used to set upper limits on the W' boson cross-section times branching ratio to an electron or muon and a neutrino as a function of the W' mass. Assuming a W' boson with the same couplings as the Standard Model W boson, W' masses below 5.1 TeV are excluded at the 95\% confidence level.}, language = {en} } @article{KilianOhlReuteretal.2012, author = {Kilian, W. and Ohl, T. and Reuter, J. and Speckner, C.}, title = {QCD in the color-flow representation}, series = {Journal of High Energy Physics}, volume = {10}, journal = {Journal of High Energy Physics}, number = {022}, doi = {10.1007/JHEP10(2012)022}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-129583}, year = {2012}, abstract = {For many practical purposes, it is convenient to formulate unbroken non-abelian gauge theories like QCD in a color-flow basis. We present a new derivation of SU(N) interactions in the color-flow basis by extending the gauge group to U(N) × U(1)′ in such a way that the two U(1) factors cancel each other. We use the quantum action principles to show the equivalence to the usual basis to all orders in perturbation theory. We extend the known Feynman rules to exotic color representations (e.g. sextets) and discuss practical applications as they occur in automatic computation programs.}, language = {en} }
