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.

Below are the latest papers in this dynamic field, ready for you to explore with clarity and depth.
This paper proposes that the recently observed resonance is a strange hybrid meson rather than a conventional quark-antiquark state, based on a systematic analysis of the strange meson spectrum which identifies the and as the expected and states, and supports the hybrid interpretation through strong decay calculations and production mechanism similarities to the .
This paper proposes a new hadronization model tuned to electromagnetic scattering data and conservation laws to correct the inaccuracies of standard Pythia simulations for GeV-scale feebly coupled particles, revealing that their dominant experimental signatures are multiparticle decays rather than the commonly targeted two-particle modes.
This paper proposes a model where the Peccei-Quinn symmetry emerges accidentally from an gauge structure to protect axion quality and resolve post-inflationary cosmological tensions, thereby allowing the axion to constitute the majority of dark matter with a predictable mass.
This paper develops a theoretical framework for generalized collider detectors that measure energy powers on specific hadron subsets by introducing universal nonperturbative "detector functions" to bridge infrared hadronic measurements with ultraviolet partonic calculations, thereby enabling the computation of multi-point correlation functions, QCD factorization, and the analysis of nonperturbative power corrections.
This paper introduces a new framework for realizing eclectic flavor symmetries without flavons by employing the finite image of the integral Jacobi group acting on moduli to construct realistic supersymmetric models with spontaneous CP violation and to clarify the geometric distinctions between various toroidal orbifold building blocks.
This paper demonstrates that a myopic Bayesian adaptive policy for Rabi sensing, which dynamically selects measurement axes to maximize information gain, outperforms fixed non-adaptive strategies in detecting weak coherent drives with unknown amplitude and phase by achieving superior sensitivity and Type-II error exponents under a fixed shot budget and calibrated false positive control.
This paper demonstrates that in a large- confining gauge theory, a Casimir-induced bottleneck hinders baryon formation during the early Universe, causing the relic density of stable baryons to be determined at the confinement phase rather than by subsequent annihilation freeze-out, which has significant implications for dark matter models.
This paper presents high-resolution simulations and a foreground removal method for the CMB-HD survey that effectively cleans cosmic infrared background, radio galaxies, and galaxy clusters, demonstrating that residual foregrounds will only minimally impact cosmological parameter constraints while maintaining the survey's sensitivity to light thermal relic particles.
This paper utilizes light-cone sum rules to calculate QCD penguin operator matrix elements in singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays, revealing that scalar penguin contributions significantly enhance the predicted Standard Model upper bound on direct CP violation and thereby narrow the gap with experimental measurements.
This paper investigates how a crossover transition from hadronic to quark matter in neutron star mergers, particularly within the QHC21 equation of state, alters post-merger gravitational wave signals and causes measurable deviations from established universality relations, potentially offering a unique observational signature for such phase transitions.
