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 investigates how ultra-light scalar dark matter alters neutrino flavor oscillations for both high-energy Active Galactic Nuclei and low-energy Diffuse Supernova Neutrino Background sources, predicting modified flavor ratios at Earth that can be tested against current and future IceCube, HK, DUNE, and JUNO sensitivities.
This paper demonstrates that bosonic tensor networks quantitatively connect the lattice sine-Gordon model to its continuum theory, accurately reproducing exact soliton masses, breather spectra, and scattering dynamics without adjustable parameters, thereby establishing a robust framework for studying non-integrable extensions and gauge theories.
This paper investigates how hadron structure and quark-flavor couplings significantly suppress and reshape axion-like particle (ALP) radiation in hadron collisions, demonstrating that realistic form factors and heavy-quark coupling configurations can alter process-weighted contributions by orders of magnitude compared to point-particle approximations.
This paper proposes a novel search for axions produced by atmospheric kaon decays () that subsequently decay into photon pairs within large underground detectors like Super-Kamiokande and IceCube, using existing data to derive new constraints on the axion decay constant for masses up to approximately 350 MeV.
This paper investigates an extended Standard Model with singlet and triplet scalar leptoquarks, revealing that while the model predicts significant correlations between charged lepton anomalous magnetic moments and flavor-violating decays, it cannot simultaneously accommodate the observed discrepancies in both electron and muon magnetic moments while satisfying current experimental constraints.
This paper proposes a Type-II seesaw extension of the inelastic doublet dark matter model, where a scalar triplet induces necessary mass splitting and new annihilation channels to allow for TeV-scale dark matter that can explain the recent LZ230616 event while evading solar capture constraints and generating sub-eV neutrino masses.
This paper presents a method to explicitly construct optimal observables for estimating environmental parameters in open quantum systems directly from the master equation using expectation values, bypassing the need for explicit solutions and enabling applications in both equilibrium and non-equilibrium regimes.
This paper reviews recent explicit NLO computations and introduces the updated gamma-UPC+MadGraph5_aMC@NLO framework, the first automated tool enabling NLO-accurate predictions for photon-photon processes in ultraperipheral collisions.
This paper analyzes the sub-threshold gravitational-wave candidate GW231109_235456 to derive constraints on neutron star mass distributions, equation of state, and kilonova detectability, while projecting that next-generation detectors could significantly improve tidal deformability measurements for similar events.
This paper forecasts that the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), by cross-correlating its radio data with low-redshift galaxy surveys, could surpass Planck's sensitivity by a factor of four to potentially discover dark photons with masses between and eV and kinetic mixing parameters as low as through resonant conversions in dark matter halos.
