We present a systematic simulation study of identified hadron production in minimum bias Au+Au collisions at sqrt(sNN) = 6, 7, and 8 GeV. The event samples were generated with three modern frameworks based on different microscopic pictures:…
We investigate the strong decays of the recently observed hidden-charm pentaquarks \(P_{\psi}^N(4312)\), \(P_{\psi}^N(4440)\), and \(P_{\psi}^N(4457)\), as well as \(P_{\psi s}^\Lambda(4338)\) and \(P_{\psi s}^\Lambda(4459)\), within the…
We investigate isospin-breaking effects in double-charm molecular pentaquarks with the $D^{(*)}\Sigma_c^{(*)}$ configuration, using the one-boson-exchange potential framework. In these systems, the isospin-breaking effects arise from two…
Recoil corrections, which appear at order $\mathcal{O}(\frac{1}{M})$, turn out to be crucial for the pentaquark molecules with heavy flavor. In the past, such corrections were typically regarded as negligible for the formation of heavy…
We investigate CP-violation in the complex singlet extension of the general Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) with Yukawa alignment condition. We first explore the possibility of explicit CP-violation in the extended scalar sector while the…
We present a comprehensive phenomenological study of a class of six vector-like lepton models with seesaw-like mass contributions and strong modifications to Higgs and lepton phenomenology. We focus on lepton flavour conserving and…
We present a sequential nine-parameter retune of PYTHIA 8.316, built on the Monash 2013 baseline, for soft-QCD observables in proton--proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=0.9$--$13$ TeV. The tune is constructed with direct generator evaluation…
Jet flavor tagging plays an important role in precise Standard Model measurement enabling the extraction of mass dependence in jet-quark interaction and quark-gluon plasma (QGP) interactions. They also enable inferring the nature of…
We define the hyperbolic form factor of a density distribution as its bilateral Laplace transform, related by duality or analytic continuation to its form factor. For a sphere it is given by $\Phi(x = kR) =\langle \cosh \vec k.\vec…
The littlest inverse seesaw (LIS) model represents the first low-scale seesaw framework to successfully account for all six physical observables of the neutrino sector with merely two effective free parameters, making it highly worthy of…
We employ deep neural networks to represent the field derivative of the scale-dependent effective potential in the functional renormalization group (fRG) framework for nonperturbative quantum field theory. By embedding the fRG flow…
In this paper, we investigate the twist-2 and twist-3 light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) of vector mesons within the light-front quark model, and the $n$th Gegenbauer moment $a_n(\mu)$, $\xi$-moment $\langle…
We study the thermal modification of the exclusive decay $K_1^+(1270)\to \pi^+\pi^-K^+$ in a hot hadronic medium. The decay amplitude is constructed from effective hadronic interactions dominated by the $\rho$- and $K^*$-pole contributions,…
The elastic proton-proton and pion-proton scattering processes are investigated in the framework of holographic QCD. Considering the Pomeron and Reggeon exchange in the Regge regime, the total and differential cross sections are calculated.…
The proton spin puzzle denotes the challenge of describing the proton's spin in terms of the angular momenta of the quarks and gluons which comprise it. These quarks and gluons carry a fraction $x$ of the proton's momentum. Contributions…
We show that accounting for a non-instantaneous reheating phase after inflation can significantly modify the charged lepton Yukawa equilibration temperature in the early Universe. This finding calls for revisiting the role of lepton flavors…
We investigate the stability and causality of relativistic spin hydrodynamics in the presence of a nonvanishing spin-density background, assuming that the spin chemical potential enters at leading order, $\omega^{\mu\nu}\sim\mathcal{O}(1)$,…
The LHC has failed to discover any new elementary particle since the Higgs boson completed the standard model in 2012, Here we adopt the attractive method of quiver gauge field theories to make predictions of additional particles which…
We investigate the extent of the critical scaling region of the chiral phase transition at finite chemical potential within the quark-meson (QM) model using the functional renormalization group (fRG) approach. By analyzing the scaling…
We study photon propagation in a strong magnetic field $B\sim B_{\rm{cr}}$, where $B_{\rm cr}= \frac{m^2}{e} \simeq 4.4 \times 10^{13}$ Gauss is the Schwinger critical field. We show that the expected value of the Hamiltonian of a quantized…
