Below are the latest papers in this dynamic field, ready for you to explore with clarity and depth.
This paper presents a systematic analysis of the flavor-changing Higgs decay within the Generational Three-Higgs-Doublet Model (G3HDM), evaluating its viability against current experimental constraints and highlighting its potential as a sensitive probe for new physics.
This paper demonstrates a symmetry-resolved complementarity between mixing and rare decays involving massless dark photons, showing how combining these constraints allows for the analytical elimination of flavor dependence to derive direct bounds on invisible decay rates and conditional limits on dark charge conjugation breaking portals.
This paper derives a general non-abelian Lindblad-type quantum master equation for quarkonium evolution in a quark-gluon plasma that overcomes previous temperature-energy gap limitations, enabling a faithful description of the system's quantum dynamics across all expansion regimes.
This paper analyzes the decay to propose that the observed 4.63 GeV enhancement in the spectrum corresponds to the charmonium state , while noting a significant discrepancy between the fitted production rate and theoretical predictions from factorization and hadron-loop mechanisms.
This paper presents a pragmatic study of photon fragmentation functions by extracting flavor-dependent distributions from Pythia parton-shower events and converting established parameterizations into LHAPDF grids, demonstrating that logcubic interpolation better captures their complex dependencies than linear methods and providing a portable baseline for future phenomenological analyses.
This paper employs Kolmogorov-Arnold networks to perform a staged functional analysis of differences between Pythia and Herwig event generators, revealing how specific observable drivers like multiplicity and jet shape evolve and persist across shower, hadronization, and full-generator stages.
This paper demonstrates that combining DUNE and T2HK data allows for a novel, neutrino-only search for time-reversal violation by analyzing the baseline dependence of oscillation probabilities, achieving up to 4σ significance and highlighting the complementary strengths of the two experiments in probing T and CP violation.
This paper investigates the equilibrium configuration and linear perturbations of a Lorentz-violating bumblebee vector field on a fixed Schwarzschild background, deriving parameter bounds for real and finite solutions while characterizing the behavior of monopole and multipole perturbations near the event horizon and at spatial infinity.
This paper extends the constituent gluon model to predict the mass spectra and strong decay properties of ground charmonium hybrids, finding agreement with lattice QCD and recommending specific exotic and ordinary quantum number states as prime targets for future experimental searches.
This study utilizes fully general-relativistic simulations to demonstrate that binary neutron star mergers produce neutrino radiation dominated by a quadrupolar geometry with persistent polar enhancement and equatorial suppression, exhibiting coherent azimuthal modulations linked to differential rotation that subsequently drive latitude-dependent variations in the electron fraction of the ejecta.
