This paper presents a cross-platform benchmark comparing the performance of a fixed style-based quantum GAN for high-energy physics data augmentation on IBM's superconducting ibm_torino and IonQ's trapped-ion aria-1 processors, revealing that while IonQ achieved slightly better statistical quality, IBM's platform offered significantly faster end-to-end runtime.
This paper proposes that QCD axion dark matter models utilizing relaxation mechanisms can predict the observed dark matter-to-baryon abundance ratio as a discrete function of beta functions, specifically reproducing the experimental value of 5.36 within percent-level error bars when the gauge group size is .
This paper demonstrates that four-dimensional de Sitter vacuum solutions can be realized on probe D3 and D5 branes nucleated in an asymptotically background by leveraging stringy corrections, high chemical potentials, and specific gauge field configurations without the need for fine-tuning.
This paper investigates the viability of axion-like particle (ALP) mediated fermionic dark matter by analyzing its relic density constraints and demonstrating the potential for detection at future electron-positron colliders through mono-photon plus missing energy signatures, which offer a distinct separation from Standard Model backgrounds.
This paper establishes a theoretical framework linking topological quark-level diagrams to hadron-level rescattering dynamics in charmed baryon decays via (1,1)-rank octet tensors, demonstrating their consistency with chiral Lagrangians, deriving isospin sum rules, predicting significant CP violation from penguin contributions, and challenging the Körner-Pati-Woo theorem by suggesting a precise measurement of the branching fraction to test it.
This paper investigates the role of the QCD scale anomaly in the nucleon's gravitational form factors using a scale-invariant Skyrme model, demonstrating that the inclusion of a scalar meson to represent gluonic contributions is crucial for satisfying nucleon stability conditions and accurately reproducing lattice QCD results for the form factor.
This paper establishes a theoretically consistent quantum field theory formalism for dark matter scattering with atomic bound electrons, demonstrating that relativistic calculations are essential and can reduce the scattering phase space and differential cross section by 30% to 50% compared to commonly used non-relativistic approximations.
This paper argues that detecting neutrinos from binary neutron star mergers requires future megaton-scale detectors with low energy thresholds, but such observations could uniquely probe the lightest neutrino mass with sensitivity surpassing current terrestrial and galactic supernova constraints by leveraging time-of-flight delays relative to gravitational wave signals.
This paper presents a practical method for incorporating leading-power quark mass effects into infrared-collinear-safe jet cross sections at NNLO without altering standard jet definitions, thereby enabling direct comparison with experimental measurements using existing jet algorithms while demonstrating that neglected power corrections can be significant.
This paper demonstrates that cold sterile neutrino dark matter can be efficiently produced during inflationary reheating via inflaton decays, thereby opening new parameter space that evades current X-ray constraints and allowing future observations to probe reheating properties and establish significantly stronger bounds on the reheating temperature than those derived from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis.
