      Renormalon problem in QCD and a direction to go beyond perturbation theory I 1h

      In QCD, perturbation theory is an indispensable tool but is not an ultimate method in the sense that accuracies of perturbative predictions are limited. In particular, the so-called renormalon problem is known that perturbative expansions of observables give divergent series and cause inevitable uncertainties. This problem is becoming more serious from phenomenological aspects in recent years. I first give a review of the renormalon problem. The contents include causes of the divergence of perturbative series and its implications to nonperturbative physics. Subsequently, I discuss a possible direction to overcome the renormalon problem. For this purpose, one has to calculate perturbative contributions compatibly with the operator product expansion so that nonperturbative effects can eventually be included.

      Resummation of perturbative series and Resurgence in quantum field theory I 1h

      Perturbative series in Quantum Field Theory (QFT) is typically divergent. While there is a standard way to resum divergent series called Borel resummation, it is expected that naive Borel resummation does not work in many QFTs including QCD. Resurgence is often used to cure this kind of situation both in physics and mathematics. In my lecture, I will begin with general expectation on perturbative series in QFT and introduce resurgence with some simple examples. Then I will explain recent attempts to apply resurgence to QFT. Although it is natural to ask whether one can apply resurgence to some realistic theories such as QCD, I do not have a clear answer to the question at this moment because we do not have sufficient data yet. Instead I will discuss what should be done or known to answer the question.

        Heavy quark pair productions at ILC 30m

        We expect the ILC with polarized beams will shed light on the chiral structures of the electroweak couplings to all fermions. In the experimental viewpoint, the key of such measurements is to discriminate between fermion and anti-fermion in pair production events. In this talk, I will report recent developments and what we have achieved so far based on the studies within the ILD collaboration, especially for t-, b-, and c-quark pair productions.

        Dark matter detection at future lepton colliders 20m

        Future lepton colliders are now intensively discussed around the world, and we have so far four proposals of the colliders; one from Asia (ILC and CEPC) and the other from Europe (FCC-ee and CLIC). The main goal of the colliders at the first stage (s1/2 = 240-250 GeV) is to precisely measure known Higgs couplings to tackle the problem of the electroweak symmetry breaking. On the other hand, it is also interesting to discuss whether other new physics signals, in particular dark matter’s, can be detected or not. In this talk, I would like to talk about how important roles future lepton colliders can play to detect dark matter.

        Early kinetic decoupling of dark matter and the Higgs invisible decay in collider experiments 20m

        We revisit the Higgs-to-invisible decay ratio in Higgs-portal dark matter models. The Higgs-to-invisible decay searches are powerful probes of the models with increasing sensitivity in upcoming colliders. Close to the mass threshold of a Higgs decay into a pair of DM particles, the coupling value is expected to be very small in order to be compatible with the observed value of the thermal relic abundance. This small coupling perfectly fits with the current status of Higgs-to-invisible constraints and direct detection experiments, such as the XENON1T experiment. At the same time, the small coupling implies a lower DM scattering rate with particles in the early Universe plasma. The suppression of the scattering rate makes the kinetic decoupling happens earlier. Thus, the standard assumption in many relic abundance computations, namely the local thermal equilibrium, is not justified during the freeze-out process. We reanalyze Higgs-portal DM models, such as the Scalar-Singlet and a fermion DM model, taking the new effect of early kinetic decoupling in the relic abundance computation into account. Our results show that a larger value of the DM coupling to the Higgs is allowed. Therefore, current and future Higgs-to-invisible decay searches can generically probe more of the parameter space than previously expected.

        SUSY models for the muon g-2 anomaly, and their implications 20m

        The muon g-2 anomaly is an important guide towards new physics beyond the Standard Model as it indicates new particles lighter than O(100) GeV. Supersymmetric standard model is an attractive candidate explaining the anomaly since it also solves other important puzzles: the hierarchy problem, charge quantization and dark matter nature. In this talk, I would like to show that, by considering existent constraints, the viable scenario is almost fixed, which can be tested at the high luminosity LHC.

        Anomaly Mediation at Future Hadron Colliders 20m

        We discuss prospects of studying models with anomaly mediated
        supersymmetry breaking at future hadron colliders with centre-of-mass
        energy of 100 TeV. In such a class of models, charged Wino becomes
        long-lived with its decay length of ∼ 6 cm, and the charged Wino
        tracks may be identified in particular by the inner pixel detector;
        the charged Wino tracks can be used not only for the discrimination of
        standard model backgrounds but also for the event reconstructions. We
        show that precise determinations of the Bino, Wino, and gluino masses
        are possible at the FCC. For such measurements, information about the charged Wino tracks, including the one about the velocity of the charged Wino using the time of the hit at the pixel detector, is crucial. With the measurements of the gaugino masses in the pure gravity mediation model, we have an access to more fundamental parameters like the gravitino mass. We also show that the lifetime of charged Wino may be measured by using the information about the distribution of the flight lengths of charged Winos. We propose a procedure for the lifetime determination and show how the accuracy
        changes as we vary the mass spectrum of superparticle. We also discuss the effects of the detector layouts on the lifetime determination.

        Higgs self-coupling as a probe of sphaleron properties 20m

        Sphaleron is a non-perturbative solution of electroweak gauge theories, which is crucially important for various scenarios of baryogenesis. In many of new physics models, the deviation in the sphaleron energy from the standard-model prediction is proportional to that in the triple Higgs boson coupling with opposite signs. This interesting relation would be useful to determine the sphaleron property by measuring the Higgs self-coupling at future collider experiments.

        Probing μτ flavor-violating solutions for the muon g−2 anomaly at colliders 20m

        The discrepancy between the measured value and the Standard Model prediction of the muon anomalous magnetic moment is one of the most important issues in the particle physics. It is known that introducing a mediator boson X with the μτ lepton flavor violating (LFV) couplings is one good solution to explain the discrepancy, due to the τ mass enhancement in the one-loop correction. We study the signal of this model, i.e. the same-sign leptons, at the LHC and at the Belle II, assuming the flavor-diagonal couplings are suppressed. We show that the Belle II experiment is highly sensitive to the scenario in the mediator mass range of {\cal O}(1-10)~GeV, using the e+e− to \mu \tau \mu \tau process induced by the X.

        Tagging boosted weak gauge bosons with deep learning 20m

        We demonstrate that the classification of boosted, hadronically-decaying weak gauge bosons can be significantly improved over traditional cut-based and BDT-based methods by using deep learning and the jet charge variable. We construct binary taggers for W+ vs. W− and Z vs. W discrimination, as well as an overall ternary classifier for W+/W−/Z discrimination. We construct both ordinary and new composite CNNs. The method enhances the physics potential in SM measurements and searches for new physics that is sensitive to the electric charge of weak gauge bosons.

        Learning Physics at Future e-e+ Colliders with Machine 20m

        Information deformation and loss in jet clustering are one of the major limitations for precisely measuring hadronic events at future e−e+ colliders. Because of their dominance in data, the measurements of such events are crucial for advancing the precision frontier of Higgs and electroweak physics in the next decades. In a recent arXiv paper (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2004.15013.pdf), the speaker and his collaborators showed that this difficulty can be well-addressed by synergizing the event-level information into the data analysis, with the techniques of deep neutral network. In relation to that, they introduced a CMB-like observable scheme, where the event-level kinematics is encoded as the Fox-Wolfram (FW) moments at leading order and multi-spectra at higher orders. Then they developed the classifiers in two ways to achieve this goal: jet-level with the FW moments and brute-force event-level. As an application, these classifiers were applied to measuring Higgs decay width at e−e+ colliders, with the data of 5ab−1@240GeV. The precision obtained is significantly better than the baseline ones presented in documents. In this talk, the speaker will give an overview on these aspects and discuss their potential impacts for future collider-physics study.

        Flavor Physics at Future Z-Factories: $b\to s\tau\tau$ Measurements and Beyond 20m

        $b\to s\tau^+\tau^-$ measurements are highly motivated for addressing lepton-flavor-universality(LFU)-violating puzzles such as $R_{K^{(\ast)}}$ anomalies. The anomalies of $R_{D^{(*)}}$ and $R_{J/\psi}$ further strengthen their necessarity and significance, given that the LFU-violating hints from both involve the third-generation leptons directly. $Z$ factories of future $e^-e^+$ colliders stand at a great position to conduct such measurements, because of their relatively high production rates and reconstruction efficiency for $B$ mesons at $Z$ pole. To fully explore this issue, we pursue a sensitivity study for four $b\to s\tau^+\tau^-$ benchmark channels, namely, $B^0\to K^{\ast 0} \tau^+ \tau^-$, $B_s\to\phi \tau^+ \tau^-$, $B^+ \to K^+ \tau^+ \tau^- $ and $B_s \to \tau^+ \tau^-$, at the future $Z$ factories. A scheme of $B$-meson reconstruction mainly based on detector tracking system is developed for this purpose. The simulations indicate that at Tera-$Z$ the branching ratios of the first three channels can be measured with a precision of $\mathcal O(10^{-7})$ and that of $B_s \to \tau^+ \tau^-$ with a precision of $\mathcal O(10^{-5})$. The interpretation of these results in effective field theory is presented.

        Cornering Higgsino at the LHC 20m

        A Higgsino-like particle is an attractive candidate for the WIMP dark matter. Thanks to the electroweak interaction, the production cross section of the Higgsino at the LHC is rather high. However, the huge Standard Model background prevents the Higgsino discovery, and the present LHC sensitivity can be even worse than the LEP result in some parameter region. In this talk, I discuss a new search strategy to explore such a parameter region by utilizing exotic tracks from the charged Higgsino: soft displaced track and disappearing track.

        Probing long-lived particles at Higgs factories 20m

        We study displaced vertex signatures of long-lived particles (LLPs) from exotic Higgs decays in the context of a Higgs-portal model and a neutral-naturalness model at the circular electron positron collider (CEPC) and future circular collider e+ e− (FCC-ee). Such two models feature two representative mass ranges for LLPs, which show very different behavior in their decay signatures. The Higgs-portal model contains a very light sub-GeV scalar boson stemming from a singlet scalar field appended to the Standard Model. Such a light scalar LLP decays into a pair of muons or pions, giving rise to a distinctive signature of collimated muon-jet or pion-jet, thanks to the sub-GeV mass. On the other hand, the neutral-naturalness model, e.g., folded supersymmetry, predicts the lightest mirror glueball of mass O(10)  GeV, giving rise to long decays with a large transverse impact parameter because of the relatively large mass. Utilizing such distinct characteristics to remove the background, we estimate the sensitivities of searches for light scalar bosons and mirror glueballs at the CEPC and FCC-ee. We find either complementary or stronger coverage compared to the previous results in the similar contexts.

        Searches for new light particles at ILC main beam dump 20m

        The International Linear Collider (ILC) is the highest-priority next collider as a Higgs factory. In the linear collider, almost all accelerated particles that do not interact strongly at the collision point are not recycled and are all thrown into beam dumps, which is very different from the case of circular colliders. Therefore, a beam dump experiment in the linear collider can be performed in parallel with the main experiment, which has a great advantage in terms of statistics. In this study, we estimate the detection sensitivity to new light particles that interacts not only to primary electron beams but also to secondary photons, electrons, positrons, and muons in the ILC beam dump. This study demonstrates that the ILC beam dump experiment has an enhanced sensitivity to axion-like particles and leptophilic dark sectors by an order of magnitude compared with previous experiments and other future beam dump experiments.

        Recent years have revealed a variety of mathematical and physical structures underlying scattering amplitudes, with redefinitions of scattering amplitudes where the usual principles of locality and unitarity are derivative from geometry. The amplituhedron is one of the examples, a purely geometric object which gives scattering amplitudes of planar N=4 SYM. All tree-level amplitudes and all-loop integrands correspond to the differential forms with logarithmic singularities on the boundaries of the amplituhedron. In this lecture, I will give a review of scattering amplitudes in planar N-4 SYM first. After this, I will explain the definition of the amplituhedron and see how to obtain scattering amplitudes from this geometric object.

        Filling the gap between inclusive and exclusive processes 1h 30m

        Computation of QCD processes is always hard. The use of lattice QCD is limited to low-lying hadronic (often single-particle) states, so that only exclusive processes can be computed. Perturbation theory, plus operator product expansion, is used for high-energy processes for which the final states are not specified, or summed over all possible states, i.e. inclusive processes. There are annoying cases, where two analyses are mutually contradictory, as seen in the |Vcb| and |Vub| determinations. They suggest that there remain some unknown systematic effects in either or both analyses. In this talk I argue that one can construct a theoretical method that can treat both cases in principle, by extending the lattice QCD approach.
