This paper proposes a new, gauge-symmetry-compatible formulation for CP-violating neutral triple gauge couplings within the SMEFT framework and demonstrates that future high-energy colliders, particularly with polarized beams, can probe new physics scales ranging from TeV to 10 TeV with sensitivities improving from to as collision energy increases from 250 GeV to 5 TeV.
This paper demonstrates that the observed violation in decays implies a penguin amplitude significantly larger than Standard Model predictions and cannot be explained by rescattering alone, thereby providing strong model-independent evidence for physics beyond the Standard Model.
This paper investigates the sensitivity of future high-energy colliders to dimension-8 neutral triple gauge couplings in production, demonstrating that machine learning techniques applied to angular distributions and beam polarization can significantly enhance the discovery potential for new physics scales up to the multi-TeV range.
This paper utilizes the density of states method in lattice field theory to characterize the first-order confinement/deconfinement phase transition in finite-temperature Yang-Mills theory, demonstrating the persistence of non-perturbative phenomena and establishing critical parameters for future continuum limit extrapolations relevant to gravitational wave predictions.
This paper proposes a novel axion detection method for masses between and eV that utilizes a large cylindrical sample with low electrical conductivity to generate a measurable bulk oscillating current under a magnetic field, offering a feasible signal-to-noise ratio even at cryogenic temperatures.
This paper employs QCD sum rules to investigate the masses of purely top-quark bound states, finding that the calculated pseudoscalar toponium mass aligns with recent CMS and ATLAS observations near the threshold while also providing theoretical predictions for the vector toponium and triply-top baryon to guide future high-energy collider experiments.
This paper investigates how shear viscosity in the post-inflationary universe modifies the propagation of primordial gravitational waves, demonstrating that viscosity induces additional damping and spectral running—such as a blue tilt from freeze-out in the electron-photon-baryon plasma—thereby altering the gravitational wave energy density spectrum by approximately .
This paper validates the accuracy of Asymptotic Padé predictions against exact five-loop QCD results and recent findings, then leverages this success to provide new six-loop predictions for QCD and eight-loop predictions for theory.
Using symplectic model order reduction, this paper demonstrates that the minimal number of canonical degrees of freedom required to describe the Hamiltonian evolution of a regularised scalar field scales with the area of the region rather than its volume, a phenomenon driven by the count of distinct normal-mode frequencies and observed in both flat and curved spacetimes as well as weakly interacting theories.
This paper presents a novel framework for calculating the neutrino-neutrino collision term in the Boltzmann hierarchy that incorporates both neutrino and mediator masses as free parameters, enabling a smooth transition between light and heavy mediator regimes and providing a robust tool for testing neutrino self-interaction scenarios across a wide range of cosmological conditions.
