This review presents flavour related issues in the production and decays of heavy states at LHC, both from the experimental side and from the theoretical side. We review top quark physics and discuss ...flavour aspects of several extensions of the Standard Model, such as supersymmetry, little Higgs model or models with extra dimensions. This includes discovery aspects as well as measurement of several properties of these heavy states. We also present public available computational tools related to this topic.
A standard file format is proposed to store process and event information, primarily output from parton-level event generators for further use by general-purpose ones. The information content is ...identical with what was already defined by the Les Houches Accord five years ago, but then in terms of Fortran commonblocks. This information is embedded in a minimal XML-style structure, for clarity and to simplify parsing.
Theoretical progress in Higgs boson production and background processes is
discussed with particular emphasis on QCD corrections at and beyond
next-to-leading order as well as next-to-leading order ...electroweak corrections.
The residual theoretical uncertainties of the investigated processes are
estimated in detail. Moreover, recent investigations of the MSSM Higgs sector
and other extensions of the SM Higgs sector are presented. The potential of the
LHC and a high-energy linear e+e- collider for the measurement of Higgs
couplings is analyzed.
