Research Interests

• calculation of higher order corrections and their automation
• precision phenomenology
• numerical methods for multi-loop integrals/amplitudes
• combination of NNLO calculations with parton showers
• mathematical aspects of Feynman integrals
• alternatives to the SM Higgs sector, Effective Field Theories
• theoretical aspects of top quark mass determinations

Public programs

• (py)SecDec: a program to factorize the poles from dimensionally regulated parameter integrals and to evaluate them numerically.
  It can be used for multi-loop integrals and also other multi-dimensional parameter integrals.
  The latest version of pySecDec is available on github.
  The manual is available on readthedocs.
  For further reading see e.g.
  arXiv:1811.11720 (GPU and QMC usage),
  arXiv:1712.05755 (FAQ's),
  arXiv:1703.09692 (pySecDec paper),
  arXiv:1502.06595 (SecDec-3 paper),
  hep-ph/0004013 (original article on the algorithm).
  See also the review article on sector decomposition Int.J.Mod.Phys.A23:1457-1486 (2008).


• ggHH: NLO corrections to Higgs boson pair production with full top quark mass dependence: POWHEG-BOX/User-Processes-V2/ggHH


• GoSam: a program to generate and evaluate multi-leg one-loop amplitudes, within and beyond the Standard Model.
  The loop amplitudes can be linked to Monte Carlo programs via the BLHA1, BLHA2 interface.


• golem95: one-loop library of scalar and tensor integrals (written in Fortran95).


• eerad3: computes the QCD contributions to event shapes and jet rates in electron-positron annihilation at parton level to order alpha_s^3.
  For three-jet production and related observables, this corresponds to NNLO corrections.


• for phenomenology of prompt photon production production, see the PHOX Programs and the GoSam diphoton+jet at NLO code.
