Nová fyzika v procesech při nízkých energiích
Husek, Tomáš ; Kampf, Karol (advisor) ; Kolesár, Marián (referee)
Not so long ago, the value of the branching ratio of a neutral pion decay to an electron-positron pair (π0 → e− e+ ) has been updated and became more accurate thanks to the fact, that new measurements were performed at KTeV experiment at Fermilab. In this context it has been showed, that the Standard Model theoretical prediction is not precise enough. The resulting discrepancy was not explained yet. In presented work, there are summarized preceding results, al- ready computed correction were taken into account and newly the Bremsstrahlung contribution was thoroughly calculated. Besides, the contribution of π-loop cor- rections in terms of double-logarithms is estimated. In the end, because of the persisting disagreement of the accepted theory with the experiment, an additional contribution is suggested from beyond the Standard Model on the basis of models describing the dark matter. The latter mentioned is a hot candidate to explain many phenomena, for example the mysterious source of a great amount of γ-rays coming from the center of our galaxy and having the origin in the annihilation of electron-positron pairs. 1

Some aspects of low-energy QCD at the precision frontier
Husek, Tomáš ; Kampf, Karol (advisor) ; Hořejší, Jiří (referee) ; Passemar, Emilie (referee)
Title: Some aspects of low-energy QCD at the precision frontier Author: Tomáš Husek Department/Institute: Institute of Particle and Nuclear Physics Supervisor of the doctoral thesis: doc. RNDr. Karol Kampf, Ph.D. Abstract: This thesis concentrates on some low-energy aspects of QCD, namely on those which are connected to the electromagnetic decays of lightest neutral pseudoscalar mesons. Calculations of radiative corrections to neutral pion decays (the Dalitz decay and the rare decay) and a novel model for the pion electro- magnetic transition form factor are subjects discussed in the attached papers, which this work is based on. The associated theoretical aspects including Chiral Perturbation Theory or the large-Nc limit are introduced. We also discuss the complications which arise when the calculations of radiative corrections for η(′) Dalitz decays are performed. Some details about the collaboration with experi- ments which incorporate the calculation of the published corrections are provided. Last but not least, some techniques related to loop integrals are shown. Keywords: Chiral Perturbation Theory, large-Nc limit, radiative corrections, pion electromagnetic transition form factor 1

Search for an Axion in OSQAR Experiment at CERN
Husek, Tomáš ; Finger, Miroslav (advisor) ; Šulc, Miroslav (referee)
In the present work, OSQAR experiment at CERN is being introduced. The goal of this rather small experiment is a search for a hypothetical particle called axion, which could play an important role in modern physical theories. It is necessary to say, that the experimental setup as well as particular devices are still being developed or calibrated and measurement modes optimized. That is why desired functionality and reliability of the presently used equipment with a variety of different operating procedures are discussed. Preliminary results, simulations and estimation of sensitivity limitations of the current setup are also presented.
