This paper identifies exact magnetic monopole solutions in spontaneously broken gauge theories within the BPS limit that possess a new internal degree of freedom, which modulates the monopole's energy density profile while preserving its total mass.
This paper challenges the interpretation of the nucleon's momentum current density as a continuous medium's pressure and shear forces, arguing instead that color interactions are long-ranged and that only the isotropic vacuum pressure term derived from the QCD trace anomaly effectively provides the confining potential for quarks.
This paper utilizes a hybrid theoretical model combining equivalent photon approximations, GiBUU pre-equilibrium dynamics, and statistical decay frameworks to analyze new ALICE ultraperipheral collision data, successfully explaining proton and neutron emission patterns in photon-induced nuclear processes, particularly the near-maximal cross-section for single-proton emission and the high-energy tail of neutron distributions.
This paper demonstrates that including twist-four kinematic power corrections modifies the subtracted constants in deeply virtual Compton scattering dispersion relations, causing the helicity-conserving amplitude to depend on double distributions in addition to the -term, a mixing effect that significantly impacts the extraction of pressure forces from Jefferson Lab data.
This paper demonstrates that kinematic power corrections in deeply virtual Compton scattering dispersion relations provide a novel experimental constraint on nucleon momentum, pressure, and total angular momentum distributions, with continuum and lattice-QCD predictions indicating that momentum distributions account for approximately one-third of the signal at .
This paper investigates the spatial distributions of energy density, pressure, and shear forces within a two-flavor Skyrme model including vector mesons, revealing that the energy-momentum tensor's pseudo-gauge dependence—arising from nonvanishing surface terms of spin currents—causes significant differences between canonical and Belinfante forms, including singularities in the canonical pressure and shear-force distributions at the nucleon center.
This paper systematically analyzes the vacuum stability of a specific 331 model with three triplets and a softly broken symmetry by identifying all potential minima, deriving conditions for a global electroweak vacuum, and calculating metastability bounds to map the viable parameter space in terms of physical quantities.
This paper introduces a robust, simulation-driven framework that utilizes the committor probability to identify critical bubbles in thermal field theories, offering a stochastic criterion that accounts for finite-temperature effects and validates standard analytical predictions.
This paper describes the "Fair Universe Higgs Uncertainty Challenge," a pioneering competition in high-energy physics and machine learning that focused on developing analysis techniques to accurately measure uncertainties and provide credible confidence intervals for the cross-section, with results now publicly available on Zenodo.
This paper proposes a minimal framework utilizing the discrete gauge symmetry , motivated by the Standard Model's internal structure, to naturally resolve the axion quality problem while simultaneously explaining neutrino masses, baryon asymmetry, and dark matter.
This paper proposes constructing local gauge invariant operators on isometry-breaking backgrounds via the Stückelberg mechanism—effectively introducing physical clocks and rods—but argues that suppressing the resulting spacetime fluctuations to reliably define operators in localized regions (such as black hole islands) requires strong isometry breaking, potentially achieved through transitions to higher-dimensional black holes.
This paper introduces a new parton-shower algorithm that exactly reproduces the dynamics of linearized effective kinetic theory to provide a first-principles description of jet thermalization in QCD plasmas, overcoming previous limitations by properly incorporating recoils, holes, quantum statistics, and merging processes.
This paper presents the first next-to-leading-logarithmic QCD analysis of electromagnetic corrections to the semileptonic weak Hamiltonian, calculating mixed corrections to the vector coupling to yield a refined radiative correction value that enhances the consistency of first-row CKM unitarity tests.
This paper investigates how the decay of a secluded scalar field, specifically a dark glueball, into gravitons versus Standard Model particles is influenced by non-minimal gravitational couplings and conformal symmetry breaking, revealing that a large Higgs-gravity coupling suppresses graviton dark radiation while favoring Standard Model reheating, and subsequently derives the resulting gravitational-wave spectrum.
This study utilizes the HYDJET++ model to demonstrate that the high degree of azimuthal alignment observed in cosmic-ray experiments is also present at the level of energetic particle clusters, highlighting how clustering procedures and momentum conservation jointly shape these correlations in high-multiplicity heavy-ion collisions.
Using QCD sum rules, this study calculates the mass and width of the axial-vector hadronic molecules and with quark content , predicting a mass of approximately 15.8 GeV and an unstable width of about 114 MeV to guide future experimental searches for fully heavy molecular structures.
This paper introduces a new universality paradigm for hybrid qubit-qumode quantum computing based on trigonometric continuous-variable gates, demonstrating their effectiveness through a deterministic ancilla-based implementation and a successful simulation of the lattice sine-Gordon model, including ground state preparation, real-time dynamics, and kink profile extraction.
Using the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model, this paper calculates the branching ratios for the dilepton anomalous decays by determining low-energy parameters through experimental constraints and - mixing schemes, ultimately showing that the theoretical predictions align fully with available experimental data.
This paper introduces the Kinematically Diagonalized Current Basis (KDCB), a generative framework that constructs dimension-8 SMEFT operators from conserved Noether currents to resolve kinematic mixing, ensure unique energy scaling in scattering amplitudes, and facilitate the application of positivity bounds and global fits for interpreting new physics.
This paper demonstrates that by accounting for the competitive dynamics of dark matter evaporation and annihilation, solar observations can significantly constrain spin-dependent dark matter-nucleon scattering cross-sections for masses below the traditional 4 GeV evaporation limit, outperforming terrestrial direct detection constraints by up to five orders of magnitude.
