Abstract
This review describes the current status of precision quantum chromodynamics (QCD) studies at the LHC. We introduce the main experimental and theoretical methods, and we discuss their cross-stimulated developments and recent advances. The different types of QCD observables that are measured at the LHC, including cross sections and event- and jet-level properties, for various final states, are summarized. Their relation to fundamental QCD dynamics and their impact on Standard Model parameter determinations are discussed using specific examples. The impact of QCD-related observables on direct and indirect searches for rare processes within and New Physics beyond the Standard Model is outlined. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, Volume 72 is September 2022. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.
期刊介绍:
The Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science is a publication that has been available since 1952. It focuses on various aspects of nuclear and particle science, including both theoretical and experimental developments. The journal covers topics such as nuclear structure, heavy ion interactions, oscillations observed in solar and atmospheric neutrinos, the physics of heavy quarks, the impact of particle and nuclear physics on astroparticle physics, and recent advancements in accelerator design and instrumentation.
One significant recent change in the journal is the conversion of its current volume from gated to open access. This conversion was made possible through Annual Reviews' Subscribe to Open program. As a result, all articles published in the current volume are now freely available to the public under a CC BY license. This change allows for greater accessibility and dissemination of research in the field of nuclear and particle science.
