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 derives next-to-leading order chiral perturbation theory expressions for QCD-like theories with non-degenerate fermion masses, applies them to extract low-energy constants from $Sp(4)$ lattice data, and demonstrates the critical role of these corrections in refining the viable parameter space for pion dark matter scenarios.
This paper introduces two complementary methods, averaging and differential amplification, to estimate the statistical precision of generative networks for LHC simulations without large holdout datasets, revealing that while event amplification is feasible in specific phase-space regions, it is not yet achievable across the entire distribution.
This paper updates the spectrum of heavy hybrid mesons in the charmonium and bottomonium sectors using the Born-Oppenheimer Effective Field Theory framework and recent lattice QCD data to analyze their transitions to conventional quarkonia, ultimately providing interpretations for observed XYZ states and identifying new hybrid candidates.
This paper evaluates the accuracy of the quark-diquark approximation for baryons by comparing it with a three-body model using the same semi-relativistic interaction, demonstrating that good mass predictions can be achieved even with non-compact diquarks through an improved potential procedure.
This paper proposes a ferromagnet lattice magnetometer that coherently combines multiple levitated ferromagnets to significantly enhance sensitivity for detecting ultralight dark matter by suppressing dipole-dipole interactions and leveraging collective readout, thereby surpassing existing single-ferromagnet constraints across various coupling models.
This paper argues that hybrid stars are unlikely candidates for observed mass-gap compact objects because Bayesian analysis of modern mass-radius constraints favors equations of state with deconfinement occurring around , which would produce twin stars that effectively rule out hybrid stars in the mass gap.
By reformulating the Standard Model using complex quaternions to derive magnetic moments for fermions and bosons that couple to neutral pseudovector magnetic fields, this paper proposes a dynamical explanation for the parity asymmetry observed in charged weak interactions.
This paper introduces a "spectral dispersion" bootstrap strategy that combines de Sitter spectral decomposition with dispersion relations to efficiently compute loop-level cosmological correlators by reconstructing them from on-shell nonlocal signals and quasinormal modes.
This paper demonstrates that thermal effects in a minimal one-scale dark-sector gauge theory significantly alter the decay dynamics of metastable -strings by favoring thermally induced nucleation over zero-temperature monopole nucleation, thereby shifting the viable parameter space for explaining the nanohertz gravitational wave background observed by Pulsar Timing Arrays toward lower dark fine-structure constants and higher monopole-to-string-tension ratios.
This paper proposes a fixed-order perturbative on-shell construction of scattering amplitudes using BCFW-generated trees and integrated vacuum pairs, successfully reproducing the known one- and two-loop all-plus four-gluon amplitudes up to order through a polygon-organized inclusion-exclusion framework.
