Vienna Theory Lunch Club - Semileptonic Kaon decays in Chiral perturbation theory
Speaker:Andreas Kastner (Uni Wien)
Abstract:Due to quark confinement QCD, the quantum field theory of strong interactions, becomes non-perturbative at low energy. In order to obtain predictions for strong processes in the energy region of confinement, one can use a so called effective field theory. Chiral perturbation theory (ChPT), the low-energy limit of the standard model, only makes use of the symmetries of the QCD Lagrangian and does not invoke the dynamics of quarks and gluons. We want to show the basic properties and problems of effective field theories by discussing the predictions of the standard model for specific kaon decays, the K_l3 decays, in ChPT, including isospin violating effects of strong and electromagnetic origin.

Vienna Central European Seminar on Particle Physics and Quantum Field Theory
Speaker:Konstantinos Anagnostopoulos (Athens), Michael Creutz (Brookhaven), Philippe de Forcrand (Zurich), Christof Gattringer (Graz), Nigel Glover (Durham), Dieter Kranzlmüller (Munich), Thomas Lippert (Juelich), Owe Philipsen (Muenster), Michael Seymour (CERN), Jos Vermaseren (Amsterdam)
Abstract:This year, Highlights in Computational Quantum Field Theory has been chosen as subject. The present status of Monte Carlo event generation for collider experiments and the GRID technology are presented. In perturbative quantum field theory automation of loop and precision calculations are covered, at the nonperturbative level advances in lattice QCD as well as simulations of M-theory, supergravity and black holes.
