This paper proposes a coupled-channel potential model incorporating a Kapitza-inspired term to describe the X(3872) as a hybrid state with both molecular and compact tetraquark components, successfully reproducing its experimental mass and offering a mechanism for threshold tuning.
This paper proposes that measuring parity non-conservation in hydrogen transitions involving higher-wave states (where the standard model contact interaction is suppressed) offers a significantly enhanced sensitivity to detecting light bosons predicted by unification models.
This paper derives an analytical solution for the heavy quark mass dependence of the baryon's light-cone distribution amplitude by solving a first-order differential equation within a factorization framework that incorporates renormalon corrections, thereby providing a crucial tool for extrapolating lattice QCD results to the physical bottom quark mass.
This paper employs QCD sum rules to investigate the spectroscopy of diquark-diquark-antiquark type pentaquark states in the light-flavor representation with quantum numbers , , and , while proposing the experimental search for these candidates via the decay chain .
This paper employs an improved QCD sum rule scheme to calculate the leading-twist longitudinal distribution amplitudes and Gegenbauer moments for light vector mesons () up to the tenth order, subsequently utilizing these results to determine their distribution behaviors and recalculate the transition form factors and branching ratios for related semi-leptonic and meson decays.
This paper presents the exact closed-form expression for the three-loop (next-to-next-to-leading order) BFKL eigenvalue in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory at odd conformal spins, derived via direct Mellin extraction from the Caron-Huot-Herranen integrand and validated against Quantum Spectral Curve results up to spin 91.
This paper proposes an ultralight dark matter model derived from a 5D gauge theory with Scherk-Schwarz twisted fermions, which generates repulsive self-interactions that govern the formation of astrophysical solitons for masses above eV while behaving as fuzzy dark matter for lighter masses.
This paper proposes a gauge model based on symmetry where anomaly-free chiral fermions generate massless right-handed neutrinos, and higher-dimensional operators induce tiny Dirac masses, naturally leading to a quasi-Dirac neutrino scenario that explains realistic neutrino physics and its phenomenological and cosmological implications.
This paper benchmarks two computational approaches for determining bubble wall velocities in cosmological phase transitions, finding that while the fluid Ansatz and WallGo agree for mild transitions, they diverge when scattering processes are included or transitions become strong, highlighting the need for higher-precision semi-classical computations and treatments beyond the WKB approximation for future gravitational wave observatories.
This paper proposes a correlated comagnetometry technique using two alkali species in a single cell to achieve calibration-free, high-frequency magnetic noise cancellation, thereby significantly enhancing sensitivity and enabling model differentiation for precision measurements and exotic field detection.
