Hep-Ph explores the fundamental forces that govern how particles interact and behave at the smallest scales imaginable. This field bridges the gap between theoretical predictions and experimental reality, helping scientists understand the building blocks of our universe without getting lost in complex mathematics. Whether investigating the Higgs boson or searching for new physics beyond current models, these studies push the boundaries of human knowledge about matter and energy.
At Gist.Science, we process every new preprint in this category as soon as it appears on arXiv. We strip away the dense jargon to offer both accessible plain-language explanations and detailed technical summaries, ensuring that groundbreaking research is understandable to everyone from students to seasoned experts. Below are the latest papers in this dynamic field, ready for you to explore with clarity and depth.
This paper utilizes an effective theory of dynamic critical phenomena to demonstrate that the photon emission rate near the QCD critical point diverges with the correlation length and follows a universal spectrum, reflecting the nonequilibrium properties of the near-critical liquid.
This paper presents model-independent measurements of dark energy density and equation of state using DESI DR2 and Planck 2015 data, finding consistency with a cosmological constant and suggesting that the previously reported 3.1 deviation by the DESI Collaboration may be an artifact of assuming a linear parametrization for the equation of state.
This paper proposes that our universe originated as a baby universe within a classically conformal gauged extension of the Standard Model, demonstrating that this scenario is highly probable, consistent with cosmological data, and testable via the detection of a heavy neutral gauge boson at colliders.
This paper demonstrates that extending the Standard Model with two or three real singlet scalars stabilized by a symmetry not only allows for viable dark matter candidates with larger Higgs portal couplings than the minimal single-scalar model but also induces a strong first-order electroweak phase transition capable of generating observable gravitational waves at future detectors like LISA and DECIGO.
This paper investigates the possibility that right-handed neutrinos serve as a unified solution to three fundamental Standard Model problems—neutrino mass generation, baryon asymmetry, and dark matter—by analyzing their mass matrix structure within the scotogenic model.
This paper demonstrates that in an gauge-Higgs unification model within Randall-Sundrum warped space, neutrino oscillations and the PMNS matrix naturally arise from ultraviolet brane Majorana mass terms via an inverse seesaw mechanism, yielding a normal ordering with that is consistent with NuFit-6.0 data.
This paper highlights how the high-precision measurements of electron and muon magnetic moments serve as critical tests of the Standard Model and quantum field theory, with the electron offering the most stringent validation of current theories and the muon providing a sensitive probe for discovering new physics beyond the Standard Model.
This paper systematically investigates baryon number violating nucleon decays into axion-like particles using a complete set of dimension-eight effective operators and chiral perturbation theory to derive new decay expressions, which are then constrained by reanalyzing Super-Kamiokande data to establish significantly more stringent limits on effective scales and predict bounds on neutron and hyperon decays.
This paper demonstrates that transformer-based deep learning architectures significantly outperform traditional cut-based analyses in detecting top quark flavor-changing neutral current interactions with photons at the LHC, enabling the exploration of rare branching ratios as low as at the high-luminosity phase.
This paper proposes an Affleck-Dine mechanism with Q-ball formation that generates large primordial lepton flavor asymmetries with vanishing total lepton number, thereby evading cosmological constraints while offering a unified explanation for the baryon asymmetry, the QCD transition, sterile neutrino dark matter, and the helium-4 anomaly.
