This paper reviews key challenges in Monte Carlo event generator development, such as electroweak corrections, initial-state radiation, and non-perturbative modelling, which are critical for meeting the heightened accuracy demands of future high-precision lepton colliders.
This paper employs numerical minimization of the lattice action in trace-deformed Yang-Mills theory on a twisted to demonstrate how fractional instantons, monopole-instantons, and center vortices morph into one another as geometric parameters vary, revealing that the analytic picture of flux collimation holds in pure Yang-Mills theory under specific shape conditions and that transitions between configurations can be discontinuous.
This paper demonstrates that warm inflation can naturally produce dark matter by retaining a residual inflaton condensate due to a rapid drop in the dissipative ratio after inflation, which for a quadratic potential with dissipation predicts a dark matter mass of approximately 0.02 MeV consistent with current cosmological constraints.
By applying state-of-the-art theoretical tools and empirically mitigating lattice artifacts to reanalyze existing large-momentum lattice QCD datasets, this study demonstrates that the proton's isovector parton distribution function is consistent with experimental global fits within approximately one standard deviation, validating the predictive capability of the large-momentum expansion approach.
This paper presents the eight-loop computation of the three-point form factor for the operator in planar super-Yang-Mills theory, demonstrating that it shares the same polylogarithmic function space as the form factor and revealing all-order patterns in the coefficients of its symbol.
This paper demonstrates that future TeV-scale muon colliders, utilizing beam polarization and advanced reconstruction techniques, can probe anomalous interactions with sensitivities reaching for the branching ratio, surpassing current LHC limits by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude.
This paper investigates Cabibbo-favored weak decays within the QCD factorization framework by incorporating next-to-leading order contributions and updated form factors, predicting branching ratios of order for specific channels in scenario-2 that warrant high-priority experimental searches at LHCb and SuperKEKB.
This paper investigates the collision dynamics of domain walls in gauge theories using Polyakov-loop effective potential models, revealing that string junctions and vortex-antivortex pair creation are crucial mechanisms governing wall mergers and scattering in both and dimensions.
This paper utilizes a 3D + model to demonstrate that in ultrarelativistic O+O collisions at 5.36 TeV, event-by-event fluctuations in energy deposition drive the initial elliptical eccentricity and elliptic flow (), distinguishing their origin from that in heavy nucleus collisions while showing that a small set of fluctuation modes can accurately reproduce the joint probability distribution of these observables.
This paper presents a quantum algorithm utilizing Wilson fermions to simulate Generalized Parton Distributions in the Schwinger model, ensuring charge conjugation symmetry while demonstrating polynomial resource scaling and validating results through exact diagonalization.
