Identification of Ds1(2933)D_{s1}(2933) as the 2P12P_{1} state in the quark model

This paper identifies the newly observed Ds1(2933)+D_{s1}(2933)^{+} meson as the 2P12P_1 excited state of the csˉc\bar{s} system by demonstrating that coupled-channel corrections involving specific intermediate states successfully reproduce its measured mass, predict a partner state, and yield a branching ratio consistent with experimental data.

Mono-Z signal for dark matter searches at future lepton colliders and cosmological interpretation

This paper investigates the mono-Z signature for dark matter searches at future electron-positron colliders within the dimension-six dark matter effective field theory framework, identifying viable parameter spaces through comprehensive constraints and demonstrating robust discovery potential for specific dark matter candidates using advanced kinematic variables and beam polarization.
