Hep-Th, or high-energy theoretical physics, explores the fundamental building blocks of our universe and the forces that govern them. Researchers in this field use complex mathematics to understand everything from subatomic particles to the behavior of black holes, often pushing the boundaries of what we know about space and time.
At Gist.Science, we monitor the arXiv repository to ensure you stay ahead of the curve in this rapidly evolving discipline. For every new preprint uploaded to arXiv under this category, our team generates both accessible plain-language overviews and detailed technical summaries, making cutting-edge research understandable regardless of your background.
Below are the latest papers in high-energy theoretical physics, curated to help you navigate the most significant recent discoveries.
This paper presents a simplified EP model featuring two chiral electron supermultiplets to demonstrate how mass terms constrain Exotic Invariants and to propose Completion Terms, serving as a foundational example for understanding the more complex Exotic Model within the Supersymmetric Standard Standard Model.
This paper investigates holographic Fermions on an ionic lattice background with a charge density wave (CDW), demonstrating how the CDW enhances spectral amplitude and Fermi momentum, while showing that the Fermi surface radius expands with doping and the band gap widens with increased lattice amplitude.
This paper reviews how finite-dimensional associative algebras organize gauge-invariant polynomials to construct orthogonal bases and derive gauged quantum mechanical models that exhibit a transition from negative to positive specific heat capacity, reflecting a shift from factorial degeneracy growth at large to finite- constraints at high energies.
This paper argues that detecting single gravitons or quantum noise from squeezed states does not prove the quantization of the gravitational field, as classical gravitational waves can produce identical detector outputs.
This paper investigates the impact of radiative and atomic exchange corrections on the two-neutrino double-beta decay of Mo, revealing that these effects induce a significant 10 keV leftward shift in the summed electron spectrum which could alter constraints on new physics parameters when combined with refined nuclear matrix element calculations.
This proceeding reviews the concept of "magic" in quantum computing and demonstrates that top quark pair production at the Large Hadron Collider naturally generates this resource, offering a novel high-energy physics platform for studying quantum computational advantage.
This paper provides a conceptual assessment of the compatibility between asymptotically safe quantum gravity and the swampland program, identifying black hole thermodynamics, spacetime topology change, and holography as the core aspects that determine whether field-theoretic descriptions of gravity can satisfy fundamental consistency principles.
This paper demonstrates that physics-informed renormalisation group (PIRG) flows, enhanced by ground state expansion and precision Galerkin numerics, successfully capture the non-perturbative instanton physics of the anharmonic oscillator's weak-coupling tunneling regime, yielding a decay constant that deviates by only 1% from the analytic value.
This paper presents a complete one-loop calculation of the effective axion-like particle-photon coupling in a constant magnetic field using Schwinger's proper time method and the Ritus basis, providing an exact evaluation of the triangle loop diagram to improve predictions for astrophysical and terrestrial detection experiments.
This paper generalizes the construction of Virasoro identity OPE blocks to higher dimensions by utilizing integrals over nested causal diamonds, providing a new derivation of single-stress tensor exchange contributions in three and four dimensions and suggesting a description via effective reparametrization modes.
