Improving jet distributions with effective field theory.
We obtain perturbative expressions for jet distributions using soft-collinear effective theory (SCET). By matching SCET onto QCD at high energy, tree level matrix elements and higher order virtual corrections can be reproduced in SCET. The resulting operators are then evolved to lower scales, with additional operators being populated by required threshold matchings in the effective theory. We s...
متن کاملImproving the Convergence of NN Effective Field Theory
We study a low-energy effective field theory (EFT) describing the NN system in which all exchanged particles are integrated out. We show that fitting the residue of the S1 amplitude at the deuteron pole, rather than the S1 effective range, dramatically improves the convergence of deuteron observables in this theory. Reproducing the residue ensures that the tail of the deuteron wave function, wh...
متن کاملImproving wedged field dose distributions.
Dose profiles produced by wedge filters in the non-wedged direction can exhibit a 7% or greater dose reduction at the outer ends of the field compared with open field profiles. However, many planning systems use open field profiles to model wedged dose distributions. In the present work, wedges have been modified to reproduce open field profile shapes. This modification involved removing varyin...
متن کاملEffective Field Theory
Attempts to apply effective field theory (EFT) methods to nonrelativistic nucleon-nucleon (N N) scattering have raised questions about the nature and limitations of an EFT expansion when used nonperturbatively. We discuss the characteristics of a meaningful EFT analysis and compare them with traditional approaches to N N scattering. A key feature of an EFT treatment is a systematic expansion in...
