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.

This paper presents results from ATLAS and CMS experiments using 13 TeV proton-proton collision data to search for charged lepton flavour violation, baryon number violation, and neutral heavy leptons, while also reporting a precise measurement of lepton flavour universality in top quark-antiquark events.
This paper summarizes the diverse experimental results presented at the 17th international workshop on top quark physics (TOP2024) and outlines future directions for research in the field.
This paper demonstrates that physics-informed renormalisation group (PIRG) flows, enhanced by ground state expansion and precision Galerkin numerics, successfully capture the non-perturbative instanton physics of the anharmonic oscillator's weak-coupling tunneling regime, yielding a decay constant that deviates by only 1% from the analytic value.
This paper presents a complete one-loop calculation of the effective axion-like particle-photon coupling in a constant magnetic field using Schwinger's proper time method and the Ritus basis, providing an exact evaluation of the triangle loop diagram to improve predictions for astrophysical and terrestrial detection experiments.
This paper utilizes next-to-leading order QCD sum rules to predict the mass of light hybrid mesons in the 2.1–2.4 GeV range, identifying the resonance as a prime candidate and significantly revising previous leading-order estimates.
Using 13 TeV LHC dilepton resonance data, this study establishes new lower mass bounds for the boson in the Minimal Left-Right Symmetric Model across a range of gauge couplings, thereby constraining an unexplored parameter space where the right-handed neutrino is heavier than the boson.
This paper proposes a low-reheating freeze-in dark matter model featuring a stable dark photon and a long-lived pseudo-scalar mediator, demonstrating that LHC searches for displaced photons from Higgs decays can effectively constrain the model's parameter space and exclude thermalized mediators consistent with observed relic abundance.
This paper presents a new Monte Carlo Glauber model for pA collisions utilizing KMR/SHRiMPS cross sections, demonstrating that their inherent impact parameter dependence and long-tailed wounded nucleon distributions effectively describe multiplicity distributions and enhance spatial anisotropy compared to other models.
This paper investigates two benchmark models featuring radiative tau mass generation that predict sizable anomalous magnetic moments and electric dipole moments for the tau lepton, with one model yielding particularly large EDM signals within the reach of future Belle II measurements.
This paper presents a novel high-twist analysis of form factors using two-pion distribution amplitudes, revealing that the significant cancellation between twist-2 and twist-3 contributions leads to a predicted decay rate far below experimental values, thereby challenging the single-meson interpretation of the and supporting an energy-dependent partonic structure for light scalar mesons.
