This paper presents a comprehensive calculation of +jet production within the non-commutative Standard Model, leveraging distinctive first-order corrections and time-averaged observables from ATLAS data to derive stringent multi-TeV constraints on the non-commutative energy scale.
This paper constructs a systematic, scale-invariant effective field theory framework for light dilatons that connects ultraviolet conformal sectors to infrared phenomenology, enabling comprehensive constraints on MeV-scale particles from collider and astrophysical data while projecting sensitivities for ultralight dark matter detection via atomic clocks and interferometers.
Using PYTHIA 8 simulations of 13 TeV proton-proton collisions, this study demonstrates that enhanced underlying-event activity, driven by multiple partonic interactions and color reconnection, can generate collectivity-like long-range correlations in the highest relative transverse activity events without requiring hydrodynamic evolution, thereby establishing as a crucial differential classifier for interpreting small-system signatures at the LHC.
This paper proposes a minimal dark gauge model that naturally enforces a massless Dirac neutrino by forbidding specific Yukawa couplings, while simultaneously satisfying quantum consistency requirements and providing a viable dark matter candidate through a secluded confining sector.
This paper proposes a novel "bump hunting" strategy within jets by leveraging the well-understood scaling of energy correlators in perturbative QCD to identify angular resonances caused by new physics, demonstrating the method's effectiveness through projected LHC constraints on a light hadrophilic .
This paper introduces FunKit, a versatile Mathematica package designed to derive and trace functional equations from arbitrary master equations across various field theories, while offering efficient tensor tracing via FORM and code generation capabilities for C++, Julia, and Fortran.
This paper investigates neural scaling laws for particle jet generation, confirming logarithmic scaling with model size and validating next-token prediction loss as a proxy for physical accuracy, while observing weaker scaling trends for dataset size and compute due to rapid saturation in autoregressive learning.
This paper proposes a new framework for solving the strong CP problem using a heavy axion within a confining mirror Grand Unified Theory, which naturally generates a calculable mass scale without fine-tuning while offering testable predictions for electric dipole moments and new avenues for dark matter and cosmology.
This paper proposes using the visible inelasticity of starting track events in neutrino telescopes as a complementary and immediately accessible method to statistically measure the tau flavor content of astrophysical neutrinos, offering competitive sensitivity with existing IceCube data.
This paper proposes that in specific extended scalar-sector scenarios near the alignment limit, higher-dimensional interactions and suppressed mixing can suppress conventional decay modes to make multi-Higgs final states (two to four Higgs bosons) the leading discovery channels for new physics at the LHC, with distinct kinematic features allowing differentiation between single-scalar and two-singlet realizations.
