Gravitational waves and dark matter from classical scale invariance Open
In this paper we consider a minimal classically conformal U(1) model of fermionic dark matter. We calculate the one loop effective potential which generates the mass scale quantum mechanically via dimensional transmutation in the spirit of…

Central instanton production Open
We study the central production of QCD instantons at hadron colliders in events with two large rapidity gaps. These gaps in rapidity are formed by either Pomeron or photon exchanges or a combination of the two. The kT-factorization formali…

Hunting for QCD instantons at the LHC in events with large rapidity gaps Open
We outline a strategy of how to search for QCD instantons of invariant mass 20 -- 60 GeV in diffractive events in low luminosity runs at the LHC. We show that by imposing appropriate selection criteria on the final states, one can select t…

Suppression of electroweak instanton processes in high-energy collisions Open
Electroweak instantons are a prediction of the Standard Model and have been studied in great detail in the past although they have not been observed. Earlier calculations of the instanton production cross-section at colliders revealed that…

Searching for QCD instantons at hadron colliders Open
QCD instantons are arguably the best motivated yet unobserved nonperturbative\neffects predicted by the Standard Model. A discovery and detailed study of\ninstanton-generated processes at colliders would provide a new window into the\nphen…

Validating Classroom Assessments Measuring Learner Knowledge of Academic Vocabulary Open
This research investigates the reliability of vocabulary assessments used in English language skill classes at Kyoto University, Japan. Specifically it examines assessments designed to measure learner knowledge of a set of 477 vocabulary i…
