We consider the two-fermion $F_a F_b$ productions and decays via one mediator exchange at the $e^+e^-$ collider. With the assumption that the spin is defined via the Lorentz symmetry, or considering the implicit symmetry in the spin density…
Intersecting D-brane model building often suffer from the unstabilized open-string moduli, leading to the unwanted massless adjoint scalars. In our previous work arXiv:2505.03664, this issue was resolved by employing the rigid D6-branes on…
Long monodromic valleys arise in the penumbra of complex-structure moduli space. We show that their local branch data already determine whether they support controlled inflation, and thereby isolate the first controlled penumbral…
We propose a unified model for the three Standard Model (SM) gauge symmetries and $SU(3)$ family symmetry based on $SO(16)$ grand unified gauge symmetry on six-dimensional (6D) spacetime. In this model, three chiral generations of quarks…
We present a solvable same-sector effective theory for anomaly-inspired axion inflation, in which a heavy trace-anomaly mode dynamically backreacts on the axion potential. The tree-level elimination of the radial field resums the…
The dark photon is a well motivated candidate for the dark matter which comprises most of the mass of our visible Universe, leading to worldwide experimental and observational efforts towards its discovery. A primary tool in this search is…
Driven by the growing agreement between the experimentally measured muon anomalous magnetic moment and its SM prediction, we reexamine phenomenological consequences of the MSSM, which is embedded in the supersymmetric $SU(4)_C \times…
The clockwork framework can realize TeV-scale $U(1)_{PQ}$ symmetry breaking while generating a large axion decay constant \(f_a\). We propose a minimal clockwork axion model with three scalar fields, in which two domain walls (DWs) have…
We study single-field inflation in which the inflaton is identified with the lightest scalar (dilaton) excitation of a confining gauge theory. The inflaton potential is not postulated: it follows from the pure effective Gluodynamics…
We present a comprehensive theoretical framework for probing quantum entanglement in the decay angular distributions of a spin-$S$ particle-antiparticle pair $A\bar{A}$, where each particle decays sequentially into a two-body final state,…
We analyze spin entanglement in $\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}$ pairs produced in the decays of scalar ($h$) and pseudoscalar ($a$) particles, contrasting predictions from quantum field theory (QFT) with those of local hidden-variable theories…
Analyzing the supersymmetric Pati-Salam landscape on a $\mathbb{T}^6/(\mathbb{Z}_2\times \mathbb{Z}_2)$ orientifold in IIA string theory, we have found only two models that accurately account for all standard model fermion masses and…
By introducing an extra stack of D6-branes to standard ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric Pati-Salam models, we extend the landscape of its complete search. In this construction, the $d$-stack of D6-branes is introduced besides the standard…
Superradiance can lead to the formation of a black hole (BH) condensate system. We thoroughly investigate the accretion effect on the evolution of this system, and the gravitational wave signals it emits in the presence of multiple…
The multi-messenger astroparticle physics provides a new approach to probe the new physics beyond the Standard Model. We propose to probe the light dark matter which can interact with electromagnetic interaction. To be concrete, we derive…
Generalizing three-family chiral fermion conditions to $I_{ac}=-(3+h)$ and $I_{ac'}=h$, with positive integer $h$, we extend the landscape of three-family ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric Pati-Salam models in a broader region. Differing from the…
Domain walls are topological defects produced by the spontaneous symmetry-breaking of discrete symmetry during cosmological phase transitions. Domain walls can significantly contribute to the energy density in the late-evolution stage. We…
Accessing both amplitude and phase of nuclear response functions is central to fully characterizing light-matter interactions in the X-ray-nuclear regime. Recent work has demonstrated phase retrieval in two-dimensional time- and…
We propose the generic high-quality axion models with anomalous $U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry and vector-like particles. We briefly review the gauge anomaly cancellations via the Green-Schwarz mechanism, study the breaking of the $U(1)_X$ gauge…
The Circular Electron-Positron Collider (CEPC), a proposed next-generation Higgs factory, provides new opportunities to explore physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). With its clean electron-positron collision environment and the ability…
