This paper presents a new POWHEG-based Monte Carlo generator for simulating di-jet production in polarized proton-proton collisions at next-to-leading order accuracy, providing critical insights into parton-shower effects and selection criteria for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider's spin program.
This paper investigates how complex off-diagonal scalar non-standard interactions (NSI) and their associated phases impact the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment's (DUNE) sensitivity to the leptonic CP phase, revealing significant modifications to CP measurements, potential degeneracies with the CP phase, and dependencies on the absolute neutrino mass scale.
This paper demonstrates that upcoming gravitational wave observatories can probe the early universe's expansion history and determine the decay rate of scalar fields in supercooled first-order phase transitions by analyzing the imprints left by inefficient reheating on the stochastic gravitational-wave spectrum.
This paper systematically evaluates the sensitivity of four semi-supervised anomaly detection methods to untunable hyperparameters in the search for Beyond the Standard Model physics and proposes a robust, non-parametric permutation test for statistical assessment.
By applying the Hawking Area Theorem, validated through gravitational wave data, as a consistency criterion for black hole entropy corrections, this study derives constraints on the spin-parity and number of Beyond-Standard-Model particle species that may serve as dark matter candidates.
This paper proposes and tests a novel method using AGN reverberation mapping of multiple emission lines to constrain dark matter density profiles around supermassive black holes, finding tentative evidence for a universal profile with a steepness index of while highlighting the need for improved systematic uncertainties in future campaigns.
This study proposes that self-bound hybrid stars characterized by strong phase transitions and large density discontinuities can simultaneously resolve multiple observational tensions regarding the masses, radii, and tidal deformabilities of various compact objects, including anomalous low-mass pulsars, the massive GW190814 secondary, and standard NICER measurements.
This paper presents an updated version of the TGlauberMC Monte Carlo code (v3.3) with improved nuclear density profiles and nucleon substructure treatments to provide precise predictions for initial-state observables and centrality-dependent multiplicity in upcoming oxygen-oxygen, neon-neon, and proton-oxygen collisions at the LHC.
This paper investigates the diquark structure hypothesis of the scalar state by employing QCD light-cone sum rules to calculate transition form factors, branching fractions, and angular observables for the semileptonic decays , ultimately yielding branching fractions on the order of .
This paper develops a vector bundle supermanifold framework with Fermi normal coordinates to geometrically interpret scalar-fermion effective field theories, specifically applying this formalism to the Standard Model Higgs sector to analyze the phenomenological consequences of custodial symmetry violation and field space non-analyticities.
