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 extends the Effective Field Theory of Large Scale Structure to model mixed dark matter scenarios involving non-cold components, providing a new framework for calculating the galaxy power spectrum that yields updated, slightly weaker constraints on ultra-light axion energy density when applied to Planck and BOSS data.
This study revisits the scattering of ordinary matter off Q-ball dark matter by incorporating previously overlooked constraints, specifically the energy cost of squark production and the resulting electromagnetic charge accumulation, to refine the viability of this interaction for direct detection searches.
This paper investigates gluon Wigner distributions at non-zero skewness within a dressed quark model, deriving analytical expressions for transversely polarized configurations that reveal a diffraction-like oscillatory pattern in boost-invariant longitudinal space.
This paper presents a global Bayesian analysis of diffractive photoproduction on proton and lead targets using a color glass condensate framework, revealing that while simultaneous description of HERA and LHC data is challenging, introducing an overall -factor significantly improves the model's ability to fit both datasets.
This study demonstrates that Energy-Momentum Squared Gravity significantly alters the curvature profiles of neutron stars and produces distinct discontinuities at hadron-quark phase transitions, offering potential observational signatures for detecting exotic core phases in modified gravity scenarios.
This paper predicts that the maximum achievable supercooling in $SU(N)$ confinement transitions is limited to a few percent due to a deconfined phase instability just below the critical temperature, a finding derived from softly-broken SUSY insights that implies a significant suppression of associated cosmological gravitational wave signals.
This paper reviews and compares diagonal versus non-diagonal loop-order approaches in Standard Model renormalization-group analysis, quantifying how parametric and theoretical uncertainties in running couplings impact electroweak vacuum stability estimates and arguing that non-diagonal schemes coupled with consistent matching yield larger theoretical uncertainties.
This paper investigates the vacuum structure of an extended Standard Model featuring a global symmetry and a complex scalar sector, demonstrating through numerical analysis that a stable vacuum satisfying both theoretical and experimental constraints exists within a limited region of the parameter space.
Using the quark-meson coupling model, this study predicts significant mass reductions of approximately 60 MeV for -wave charmonia () in cold symmetric nuclear matter at normal density, primarily driven by vector-vector loops, while finding no level crossing with the threshold up to three times normal nuclear density.
This paper demonstrates that hadronic injections from -wave sub-GeV dark matter annihilation during Big Bang Nucleosynthesis provide tighter constraints on such candidates than those derived from the Cosmic Microwave Background or galactic indirect detection.
