This paper utilizes effective field theory and a Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation to factorize quarkonium production matrix elements in NRQCD into state-independent gluon correlators and wavefunctions at the origin, thereby verifying existing relationships for S-wave states, identifying new P-wave contributions, and restoring universality to TMD soft transition functions.
This paper investigates how neutrinos emitted by evaporating Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) heat the intergalactic medium via scattering with the Cosmic Neutrino Background, thereby modifying the global 21-cm brightness temperature and providing new constraints on PBH abundance and neutrino self-interaction couplings.
This paper introduces the framework of modern generative networks used in physics for fast surrogates and density estimation, while addressing the challenges in quantifying their accuracy, precision, and statistical power.
This paper demonstrates that the residual power spectrum of multiply-imaged galaxies in strong cluster lenses, as observed by JWST, can statistically distinguish wave-like dark matter from standard cold dark matter by quantifying sub-galactic density fluctuations across the scale.
This paper establishes that local baryon conservation within a canonical statistical hadronization framework can drive higher-order net-proton cumulant ratios to small or negative values in restricted rapidity acceptances, necessitating careful accounting of this baseline to avoid misinterpreting upcoming LHC measurements as signals of chiral criticality.
This paper investigates the projected sensitivity of the FCC-ee at GeV with 5 ab luminosity to Lepton Flavor Violating Higgs decays into , , and final states, establishing 95% CL upper limits on their branching ratios and demonstrating that FCC-ee constraints surpass low-energy searches for the and channels, while remaining less stringent for the channel.
This paper reviews recent interferometric schemes that utilize geometric phase shifts in ordinary fermion systems to detect interactions with hidden-sector degrees of freedom, such as axion-like particles and mirror-matter candidates, as a means of probing physics beyond the Standard Model.
This paper presents a complete next-to-leading-order calculation of QED radiative corrections to elastic electron-proton and muon-proton scattering, with a specific focus on the structure-dependent two-photon-exchange diagrams to address discrepancies like the proton radius puzzle and test lepton universality.
This paper presents the first non-perturbative lattice determination of bubble nucleation rates seeded by topological defects in a cubic anisotropy model, demonstrating excellent agreement with semi-classical predictions that include fluctuation determinants away from spherical symmetry.
This paper utilizes the isospectral family of the softwall AdS/QCD model to demonstrate that the ground-state electromagnetic decay constant is a key scale controlling the melting temperature of the meson, yielding a holographic prediction of MeV that aligns with experimental constraints.
