Hep-Ph explores the fundamental forces that govern how particles interact and behave at the smallest scales imaginable. This field bridges the gap between theoretical predictions and experimental reality, helping scientists understand the building blocks of our universe without getting lost in complex mathematics. Whether investigating the Higgs boson or searching for new physics beyond current models, these studies push the boundaries of human knowledge about matter and energy.

Below are the latest papers in this dynamic field, ready for you to explore with clarity and depth.
This paper investigates phenomenological constraints and future discovery potential for muonphilic portals to fermionic asymmetric dark matter, analyzing both effective field theory operators and specific UV models to determine how 3 and 10 TeV muon colliders can probe parameter spaces currently allowed by direct detection, collider limits, and muon anomalies.
This paper proposes a unified framework called "Holographic Naturalness" where de Sitter entropy arises from "hairon" fields on orbifold gravitational instantons, simultaneously explaining neutrino masses via a topological information see-saw mechanism and predicting neutrino superfluid condensation as cold dark matter.
This paper proposes a self-consistent preon model where Standard Model quarks and leptons are three-body composites confined at a high energy scale, demonstrating that the Standard Model gauge group and specific leptoquark states emerge as structural necessities rather than inputs, while naturally suppressing proton decay to levels consistent with experimental bounds.
This paper constructs a double O(3)-sigma model minimally coupled to a Maxwell field in (2+1) dimensions, demonstrating that it supports self-dual magnetic vortex solutions with quantized flux where both sigma fields belong to a single topological sector characterized by a periodic potential.
This paper proposes a mechanism for generating the Universe's baryon asymmetry via mesogenesis, where an ultralight scalar and early-Universe thermal muons temporarily enable dominant meson decays into dark sectors, satisfying current flavor constraints while predicting observable signals in future collider, flavor, and astrophysical experiments.
This paper employs the variational method with Gaussian wave functions to analytically calculate the energy levels and relativistic corrections of Rydberg states in muonic helium, providing a theoretical basis for future experimental studies.
This paper proposes a novel mechanism for electroweak baryogenesis where collapsing domain walls, formed by an axion-like field and driven by an electroweak crossover-induced bias, generate the observed baryon asymmetry through directed motion coupled to topological terms while simultaneously producing a distinct stochastic gravitational-wave background.
This paper investigates the phenomenology of a Standard Model extension with a light real gauge-singlet scalar, deriving analytical expressions for exotic Higgs decays to two and three scalars and establishing a global constraint that limits the scalar-Higgs mixing angle to , thereby providing complementary bounds on the model's parameter space.
This paper provides a brief overview of the search for low-mass scalars at Higgs factories and discusses the theoretical models that accommodate them, highlighting developments since a 2022 review.
This paper proposes a novel mechanism utilizing non-invertible symmetries within the minimal Fibonacci fusion rule to naturally generate small, radiative vacuum expectation values for exotic multi-Higgs fields, thereby satisfying experimental constraints and enabling viable neutrino mass models without requiring additional loop-inducing particles.
