The general solution of the static field equations of general relativity is given for a disk of "counterrotating" dust particles. The only nonvanishing components of the energy-momentum tensor are Jo 0 and T x x , which are assumed to have 5-function singularities on the disk. Two representative families of solutions are considered, and it is shown that, for these solutions, physical considerations severely limit the strength of the gravitational potentials. The first family has surface density proportional to some power of 1 -p 2 . The requirement that the velocity of the dust particles should not exceed c places a bound on the gravitational red-shift of z-1.5803 for these models. The second family is that of the uniformly rotating disks defined by v 2 =p 2 co 2 e~i+. Bardeen has pointed out that these disks can have arbitrarily large red-shifts without violating the velocity condition. However, it is shown that their red-shift cannot exceed 1.9015 before their binding energy becomes negative. This work suggests that the largest gravitational red-shift to which counterrotating dust disks can give rise is of order of magnitude 1.
The Large Hadron–Electron Collider (LHeC) is designed to move the field of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) to the energy and intensity frontier of particle physics. Exploiting energy-recovery technology, it collides a novel, intense electron beam with a proton or ion beam from the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). The accelerator and interaction region are designed for concurrent electron–proton and proton–proton operations. This report represents an update to the LHeC’s conceptual design report (CDR), published in 2012. It comprises new results on the parton structure of the proton and heavier nuclei, QCD dynamics, and electroweak and top-quark physics. It is shown how the LHeC will open a new chapter of nuclear particle physics by extending the accessible kinematic range of lepton–nucleus scattering by several orders of magnitude. Due to its enhanced luminosity and large energy and the cleanliness of the final hadronic states, the LHeC has a strong Higgs physics programme and its own discovery potential for new physics. Building on the 2012 CDR, this report contains a detailed updated design for the energy-recovery electron linac (ERL), including a new lattice, magnet and superconducting radio-frequency technology, and further components. Challenges of energy recovery are described, and the lower-energy, high-current, three-turn ERL facility, PERLE at Orsay, is presented, which uses the LHeC characteristics serving as a development facility for the design and operation of the LHeC. An updated detector design is presented corresponding to the acceptance, resolution, and calibration goals that arise from the Higgs and parton-density-function physics programmes. This paper also presents novel results for the Future Circular Collider in electron–hadron (FCC-eh) mode, which utilises the same ERL technology to further extend the reach of DIS to even higher centre-of-mass energies.
High-energy jets recoiling against missing transverse energy (MET) are powerful probes of dark matter at the LHC. Searches based on large MET signatures require a precise control of the Z (νν)+ jet background in the signal region. This can be achieved by taking accurate data in control regions dominated by Z ( + − )+ jet, W ( ν)+ jet and γ + jet production, and extrapolating to the Z (νν)+ jet background by means of precise theoretical predictions. In this context, recent advances in perturbative calculations open the door to significant sensitivity improvements in dark matter searches. In this spirit, we present a combination of state-of-the-art calculations for all relevant V + jets processes, including throughout NNLO QCD corrections and NLO electroweak corrections supplemented by Sudakov logarithms at two loops. Predictions at parton level are provided together with detailed recommendations for their usage in experimental analyses based on the reweighting of Monte Carlo samples. Particular attention is devoted to the estimate of theoretical uncertainties in the framework of dark matter searches, where subtle aspects such as correlations across different V + jet processes play a key role. The anticipated theoretical uncertainty in the Z (νν)+ jet background is at the few percent level up to the TeV range.G. P. Salam: On leave from CNRS, UMR 7589, LPTHE, F-75005,
