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 extends the Operator Product Expansion (OPE) algorithm to scalar-QED theory by computing the four-loop anomalous dimension of the fixed-charge operator , along with beta functions and other anomalous dimensions, while introducing a novel loop-integrand construction method to validate the OPE approach for higher-loop renormalization beyond pure scalar theories.
This paper demonstrates that scalar perturbations on Kaigorodov pp-wave spacetimes exhibit zero-temperature dissipation through a discrete, gapped quasinormal mode spectrum, establishing that horizonless geometries can act as geometric absorbers without requiring an event horizon or entropy.
This paper demonstrates that in exotic compact object spacetimes like dyonic black holes, multiple coexisting branches of bound orbits can share identical topological indices yet produce radiatively distinct gravitational wave signatures, offering a novel observational probe for physics beyond general relativity.
This paper derives a relativistic extension of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle within the framework of -deformed Kaniadakis statistics to address the lack of a comprehensive description in the intermediate velocity regime, subsequently constraining the model's parameters using precision measurements of the fine-structure constant.
This paper extends the concepts of hidden zeros and $2$-split from tree-level to loop-level Feynman integrands in the model by utilizing a shuffle permutation factorization mechanism to derive remarkably simple kinematic conditions and a generalized $2$-split formula that expresses the -loop integrand as a sum of terms.
This paper demonstrates that bipartite entanglement harvesting from a quantum vacuum using multiple Unruh-DeWitt detectors can be efficiently analyzed via a linearly scaling submatrix, revealing that increasing the number of detectors not only maximizes harvested entanglement in specific configurations but also broadens the operational ranges for energy gaps and separations.
This paper investigates charged black hole solutions in non-linear electrodynamics, demonstrating that their non-monotonic lapse functions enable stable light-rings and static near-horizon observers, which in turn generate additional, longer-lived quasinormal mode branches despite being screened from distant observers.
This paper demonstrates that merons, key topological solitons in Yang-Mills theory, are universal across a broad class of non-Abelian gauge theories and, when including gravitational backreaction, yield regular black hole and Euclidean wormhole solutions that resolve singularities while preserving intrinsic effects like spin from isospin.
This paper demonstrates that in a two-kink scalar background derived from the model, chiral fermion localization allows for the continuous tuning of the effective brane position via an asymmetry parameter and exhibits a universal power-law divergence in mode separation as the system approaches the single-kink limit, offering a concrete realization in bilayer graphene.
This paper develops a systematic worldline effective field theory framework to compute gravitational Sommerfeld factors for binary inspirals with tidal effects, deriving closed-form expressions and analytically solving for the magnitude and phase of the factor up to while establishing a new renormalization group equation for radiative multipole moments to improve waveform resummation.
