Using the X-SCAPE event generator coupled with the SMASH afterburner, this study demonstrates that hadronic rescattering significantly modifies jet fragmentation observables even in small systems like collisions, highlighting the critical role of the hadronic phase in jet quenching across different collision environments.
This paper extends the Effective Field Theory of Large Scale Structure to model mixed dark matter scenarios involving non-cold components, providing a new framework for calculating the galaxy power spectrum that yields updated, slightly weaker constraints on ultra-light axion energy density when applied to Planck and BOSS data.
This study revisits the scattering of ordinary matter off Q-ball dark matter by incorporating previously overlooked constraints, specifically the energy cost of squark production and the resulting electromagnetic charge accumulation, to refine the viability of this interaction for direct detection searches.
This paper investigates gluon Wigner distributions at non-zero skewness within a dressed quark model, deriving analytical expressions for transversely polarized configurations that reveal a diffraction-like oscillatory pattern in boost-invariant longitudinal space.
This paper presents a global Bayesian analysis of diffractive photoproduction on proton and lead targets using a color glass condensate framework, revealing that while simultaneous description of HERA and LHC data is challenging, introducing an overall -factor significantly improves the model's ability to fit both datasets.
This study demonstrates that Energy-Momentum Squared Gravity significantly alters the curvature profiles of neutron stars and produces distinct discontinuities at hadron-quark phase transitions, offering potential observational signatures for detecting exotic core phases in modified gravity scenarios.
This paper predicts that the maximum achievable supercooling in confinement transitions is limited to a few percent due to a deconfined phase instability just below the critical temperature, a finding derived from softly-broken SUSY insights that implies a significant suppression of associated cosmological gravitational wave signals.
This paper reviews and compares diagonal versus non-diagonal loop-order approaches in Standard Model renormalization-group analysis, quantifying how parametric and theoretical uncertainties in running couplings impact electroweak vacuum stability estimates and arguing that non-diagonal schemes coupled with consistent matching yield larger theoretical uncertainties.
This paper investigates the vacuum structure of an extended Standard Model featuring a global symmetry and a complex scalar sector, demonstrating through numerical analysis that a stable vacuum satisfying both theoretical and experimental constraints exists within a limited region of the parameter space.
This study investigates the mass spectra and Mott transitions of neutral mesons () within a three-flavor Polyakov-extended Nambu-Jona-Lasino model at finite temperature and magnetic field, revealing how gluon effects and inverse magnetic catalysis influence chiral symmetry restoration, flavor mixing, and the temperature-dependent behavior of meson masses.
