This paper investigates how magnetic fields in heavy ion collisions induce quarkonia spin alignment through both orbital wave function distortion and spin state mixing, finding that the spin contribution dominates phenomenologically while the subleading orbital effect offers a unique probe for studying quarkonium structural changes.
This paper presents a unified framework for constraining extended dark matter compact objects (EDCOs) by modeling their gravitational wakes and gas heating effects as they traverse the interstellar medium, yielding new limits on their abundance in the Leo T dwarf galaxy for masses exceeding one solar mass.
This paper establishes joint constraints on light primordial black holes (1g to g) and the non-cold dark matter they produce via Hawking radiation by analyzing how the resulting ultra-relativistic dark matter smooths out small-scale structures in the matter power spectrum, even when PBHs evaporate before Big-Bang nucleosynthesis without dominating the early Universe.
Using the relativistic flux tube model to successfully predict charmed meson masses and identify anomalous resonances, this study proposes spectroscopic assignments for numerous high-mass states and extends its calculations to the mass spectra of doubly charmed baryons, offering crucial guidance for future experimental searches.
This paper proposes and simulates a novel dual-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment using a fraction of the Electron-Ion Collider's proton beam to drive a high-intensity GeV-scale beam toward detectors at SNOLAB and SURF, demonstrating that such an extended baseline configuration significantly enhances sensitivity to leptonic CP violation and matter effects.
This paper employs combinatorial methods based on the tree-level effective action to provide an explicit proof of the covariance of on-shell connected functions and derive a closed formula for tree-level scattering amplitudes with any number of external legs, without relying on specific Lagrangian formulations.
This paper investigates the generation of primordial stochastic gravitational waves during the reheating period by calculating the perturbative decay of a coherently oscillating inflaton into massive spin-3/2 particles accompanied by graviton bremsstrahlung, demonstrating that the resulting gravitational wave spectra can provide insights into the microscopic physics of inflation.
This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of a supersymmetric SO(10) model where non-thermal leptogenesis explains the baryon asymmetry, yielding specific predictions for neutrino masses, the CP-violating phase , and the neutrinoless double beta decay parameter that remain consistent with JUNO's latest reactor neutrino oscillation data.
This paper presents a revised calculation of the complete non-local sub-leading contribution to the inclusive decay by removing the previously subtracted local Voloshin term, thereby addressing the high correlation between uncertainties and significantly impacting the estimated range of this contribution.
This study develops a rigorous, nonperturbative framework to quantify how mirror birefringence and polarization misalignment degrade sensitivity in axion-like particle searches, revealing that while misalignment effects can be mitigated through postselection, birefringence introduces a distinct high-mass resonance peak that necessitates careful consideration in high-precision optical-cavity experiments.
