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.

This paper utilizes the GENIE event generator to benchmark state-of-the-art theoretical and empirical models of pionless neutrino-argon scattering against recent MicroBooNE experimental data, evaluating the performance of sophisticated theoretical components against empirically-driven alternatives.
This paper presents a unified analytical framework for calculating neutral-current neutrino-nucleus scattering cross sections on Iodine-127 and Cesium-133, incorporating coherent, incoherent, and spin-dependent contributions alongside electroweak refinements to provide a systematic assessment of subleading effects relevant for CsI-based detectors and astrophysical applications.
This paper introduces TransitionListener v2.0, a robust Python framework that provides an end-to-end pipeline for precision gravitational wave predictions from cosmological phase transitions by incorporating self-consistent transition dynamics, improved physical modeling for challenging regimes, and comprehensive tools for detector sensitivity analysis and Bayesian inference.
This paper demonstrates that the Universal SMEFT framework, when applied to high-luminosity LHC Drell-Yan processes with minimal theoretical bias, can effectively discover universal new physics and accurately extract its properties while maintaining stability across different orders of EFT truncation.
This paper proposes a framework where Yukawa hierarchies emerge from powers of anarchic spurions in higher $SU(2)$ and $SU(3)$ flavor representations via progressive rank lifting, offering testable predictions for flavor-changing neutral currents and stochastic gravitational-wave backgrounds.
This paper demonstrates that in real 3-Higgs-doublet models with spontaneous CP violation and softly broken discrete symmetries, perturbativity constraints on quartic couplings prevent new scalar masses from significantly exceeding the electroweak scale, even when arbitrary large mass terms are present, a finding supported by both analytic and numerical analyses of the scalar sector's phenomenological consequences.
This paper proposes a theoretically clean and experimentally simple "one-point charge-correlator" probe for measuring the Sivers effect in back-to-back deep-inelastic scattering using only charged track signs and directions, which achieves factorization without relying on non-perturbative fragmentation functions and provides high-precision resummed predictions for future Electron-Ion Collider experiments.
This paper investigates the discovery potential of doubly-charged bileptons at the High-Luminosity LHC through direct pair production and heavy-quark-mediated channels, demonstrating that the latter offers significantly enhanced sensitivity capable of achieving a discovery for heavy quark masses up to 2.5 TeV and bilepton masses up to 2 TeV due to a distinctive, background-free four-lepton signature.
This paper proposes that accretion-induced collapses of rapidly-rotating, highly magnetized white dwarfs can generate magnetically-dominated relativistic outflows capable of accelerating heavy nuclei to ultra-high energies, potentially accounting for the observed flux of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays.
This paper utilizes the MC-CGC event generator to demonstrate that LHCb data favors HERA-constrained initial conditions for the rcBK evolution equation and that the dense-dense factorization framework better describes mid-rapidity particle production than the dilute-dense DHJ approach, while also providing predictions for future ALICE FoCal measurements.
