This paper investigates the discovery potential of lepton flavor-violating Higgs boson decays within a Froggatt-Nielsen framework at the High-Luminosity LHC, projecting that the and channels could achieve a discovery significance with an integrated luminosity of 1000 fb, while the channel remains inaccessible.
This paper predicts the existence of a highly exotic, narrow three-body bound state composed of with a binding energy of approximately 100 MeV and a width of 10 MeV, suggesting its detection via the invariant mass of in current experimental facilities.
This paper presents a unified theoretical description of experimental data for decays into and accompanied by pion or kaon pairs, utilizing unitary and analytic final-state interactions to reveal universal coupling patterns, a distinct non-charmonium nature for the , and the significant role of the resonance while predicting related branching fraction ratios and invariant mass distributions.
This paper presents a self-consistent light-front quark model based on the Bakamjian--Thomas construction to calculate kaon electromagnetic and scalar form factors, as well as unpolarized T-even transverse-momentum-dependent distributions and their collinear PDFs, demonstrating that enforcing four-momentum conservation via a uniform invariant mass implementation yields unique, current-component-independent observables and reveals distinct behaviors between direct and mass-factored scalar definitions.
This paper generalizes the Dirac-Majorana Confusion Theorem by demonstrating that CP-violating flavor-changing neutral current interactions mediated by a new vector boson () lift the kinematic mass suppression in Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering, thereby enabling the experimental distinction between Dirac and Majorana neutrinos through the imaginary component of the interaction.
This review presents a unified overview of how precision atomic and molecular spectroscopy serves as a powerful tool for probing new physics beyond the Standard Model by searching for feeble interactions mediated by light degrees of freedom, detailing the theoretical frameworks, experimental strategies, and current constraints on benchmark models.
This paper presents a hybrid quantum-classical framework that computes leading-order helicity amplitudes for scattering on gate-based quantum hardware to derive Standard Model and Effective Field Theory constraints consistent with precision collider data.
This paper presents a method to construct a complete set of lowering operators using IBP-generating vectors, which systematically reduce arbitrary Feynman integrals to master integrals by solving systems of equations for generic integral indices.
This paper investigates chiral symmetry restoration by analyzing quark-antiquark distances through confinement potentials and hadronic cross sections, demonstrating that the light-front QCD mass scale parameter can control inter-quark separation to potentially allow free quarks even within the confinement regime.
This paper applies the Gouy-Stodola theorem to calculate the entropy production rate during the inflationary epoch caused by the decay of the inflaton scalar field, finding results that align with established literature values.
