Particle Physics Theory seminar
Numerical methods and applications to two-loop calculations in the Higgs sector
- Event time: 2:00pm
- Event date: 7th February 2018
- Speaker: Gudrun Heinrich (Max-Planck Institute for Physics)
- Location: Higgs Centre Seminar Room, Room 4305, James Clerk Maxwell Building (JCMB) James Clerk Maxwell Building Peter Guthrie Tait Road Edinburgh EH9 3FD GB
Event details
The status of precision calculations will be briefly reviewed, focusing on calculations beyond one loop. Then an overview of the program SecDec, which can be used for numerical multi-loop calculations, will be given.
Some examples and phenomenological applications of the program will be discussed, in particular two-loop calculations in the Higgs sector.
