    • Aspects of Nonperturbative Heavy Quark Physics 

      Lin, Joshua (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)
      The properties of charm and bottom quarks are an interesting corner of Quantum Chromo-Dynamics (QCD) due to the fact that their masses are much heavier than the typical QCD interaction energy ΛQCD. Due to this scale ...

    • Probing the Nonperturbative Physics of QCD with Normalizing Flows and a moderate number of Pions 

      Abbott, Ryan William (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)
      Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is a cornerstone of the standard model of particle physics, and the best known theory of strong nuclear interactions. The only known systematically improvable ab-initio method for accessing the ...

    • Limits of QCD 

      Gao, Anjie (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)
      This thesis explores the fundamental kinematic limits of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), including the soft, collinear, and Regge limits, using soft-collinear effective theory (SCET). We begin by studying transverse momentum ...
