This paper proposes using neutrino-induced charged current coherent pion production events in the DUNE near detector as a "standard candle" to simultaneously constrain the muon neutrino flux normalization and cross-section uncertainties, potentially reducing flux normalization errors to a few percent.
This paper proposes an extension of Light-Front Holographic QCD to model non-equilibrium real-time dynamics and calculate key transport coefficients of strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma by incorporating finite-temperature effects via holographic black brane backgrounds, thereby offering a novel framework for studying thermalization and dissipative phenomena in heavy-ion collisions that complements existing Euclidean lattice methods.
This paper introduces Monte Carlo event generators as digital twins for collider experiments, detailing their core components and techniques used to simulate the full chain of particle physics processes from hard scattering and radiation to hadronization and decay.
This paper introduces a physics-informed conditional variational autoencoder that achieves interpretable, low-dimensional compression of cosmic microwave background power spectra to enable rapid, amortized diagnostics for cosmological model discrimination and anomaly detection beyond the standard CDM framework.
This study demonstrates that short-range correlations (SRCs) between nucleons leave a universal, linearly scalable imprint on the geometry fluctuations of the quark-gluon plasma formed in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, bridging structural insights from cold nuclear matter to high-energy collisions.
This paper demonstrates that entanglement entropy serves as a sensitive probe for detecting Planck-scale quantum gravity effects in two-flavor neutrino oscillations by revealing characteristic deviations in entropy profiles caused by modified dispersion relations.
This paper extends the study of cosmic strings with time-dependent tensions from analytic to numerical models, demonstrating that their dynamics in an expanding universe are mathematically equivalent to fixed-tension strings in a modified spacetime, and utilizing solvers and machine learning to analyze the evolution of non-circular loops near the Hubble scale.
This paper validates the approximation of using only particle contributions in quantum field theory calculations of neutrino flavor oscillations by rigorously justifying the decomposition of propagators in a vacuum setting, thereby supporting its application to oscillations in external fields.
This paper investigates a hybrid leptogenesis scenario within a minimal renormalizable SO(10) framework where resonant Type-I and Type-II seesaw mechanisms, along with novel loop-induced interference effects, collectively generate the observed baryon asymmetry through a flavor-covariant density-matrix formalism while linking neutrino mass generation to future precision searches for CP violation.
This study investigates the transport properties of mesons in a hadronic medium using Tsallis non-extensive statistics, revealing that drag and diffusion coefficients increase with temperature, the non-extensive parameter , and mass cutoffs, while the spatial diffusion coefficient decreases with these factors and suggests an upper limit of to remain consistent with AdS/CFT bounds.
