Higgs bosons which decay principally to top quarks, such as in the minimal supersymmetric model, produce a peak-dip structure in the gg → tt̄ invariant-mass spectrum. This structure is potentially observable at the CERN Large Hadron Collider.

Several supersymmetric models with extended gauge structures predict light doubly-charged Higgsinos. Their distinctive signature at the large hadron collider is highlighted by studying their production and decay characteristics.

We suggest a technique to determine the CKM phase γ without neglecting the soft final state rescattering effects. Using a set of 5 ∆S = 0 (or ∆S = 1) B meson (time integrated) decay rates, we compute the strong phases and magnitudes of the tree and penguin contributions as a function of γ. These are used to predict a ∆S = 1 (∆S = 0) decay rate as a function of γ (using SU (3) symmetry). The mea...

We present the lattice gauge theory approach to evaluating non-perturbative hadronic interactions from first principles. We discuss applications to glueballs, inter-quark potentials, the running coupling constant, the light hadron spectrum and the pseudoscalar decay constant fP .

Introduction: Radiotherapy with heavy charged particles such as protons and carbon ions (hadron therapy) has been recognized as an advanced technique for the treatment of various cancers. For some indications such as pediatric and radio-resistant tumors, it is considered the preferred method. However, despite its remarkable benefits, development of hadron therapy centers in the...
