High Energy Physics - Phenomenology
In this paper, we propose to test quantum entanglement and Bell nonlocality at an Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). By computing the spin correlations in quark-antiquark pairs produced via photon-gluon fusion, we find that longitudinally…
The KM3NeT collaboration recently reported the observation of KM3-230213A, a neutrino event with an energy exceeding 100 PeV, more than an order of magnitude higher than the most energetic neutrino in IceCube's catalog. Given its longer…
In this study, we investigate one zero textures within the framework of generalized CP symmetry associated with the complex tribimaximal matrix. By combining these approaches, we derive predictive neutrino mass matrices and establish…
We investigate the first-order transport coefficients of a fluid made of quasiparticles with a temperature-dependent mass extracted from chiral models. We describe this system using an effective kinetic theory, given by the relativistic…
We explore the effective field theory of a vector field $X^\mu$ that has a St\"uckelberg mass. The absence of a gauge symmetry for $X^\mu$ implies Lorentz-invariant operators are constructed directly from $X^\mu$. Beyond the kinetic and…
Axion dark matter (DM) is predicted to convert into radio waves in neutron star magnetospheres. We assess the detectability of this signal using a 5 m radio telescope to be installed at the Fan Mountain Observatory, operating in the UHF, L-…
We improve the description of pion-photon interactions in the radiative return process $e^+e^-\to \pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ at the next-to-leading order by including the pion form factor in the Feynman rules. We present a general calculation of the…
Global QCD analyses of nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) have traditionally relied on the Hessian method for uncertainty estimation. However, the inherent Gaussian approximation and reliance on local curvature often prove…
The penguin loop-suppressed $B\to\phi K$ decays are highly sensitive to contributions of hypothetical heavy new particles. Particularly interesting probes for testing the Standard Model and revealing such phenomena are provided by CP…
The Migdal effect in semiconductors, prompt ionization from a primary nuclear scattering event, can be described across all kinematic regimes using an effective field theory that encodes the complex vibrational and electronic degrees of…
A class of models with inverse seesaw mechanism is considered for arbitrary numbers p and q of new neutral fermions for each generation of leptons. The models containing a candidate particle for the role of warm dark matter are sorted using…
We investigate the restoration patterns of chiral and $U(1)$ axial symmetries at finite temperature using a soft-wall holographic QCD model. The study employs two distinct parameter sets (Case I and Case II), both calibrated to reproduce a…
A Monte Carlo generator of high energy cosmic ray interactions, relying on a very basic and transparent theoretical formalism, in the framework of the Reggeon Field Theory, is presented. The main motivation for our work is to provide a new…
We review the construction of locally finite two-loop amplitude integrands for photoproduction via quark annihilation, presented in arXiv:2509.07805. Building on established techniques for off-shell colorless production, we extend this…
An axion-like inflaton coupled to non-Abelian gauge bosons provides a compelling microphysical framework for warm inflation. Starting even from cold initial conditions, in these systems, sphaleron heating may generate thermal friction…
A photon linear collider, the two-photon collision mode of an $e^+e^-$ linear collider, uses high-energy laser photons backscattered off the incoming electrons and positrons. The colliding-photon polarization is fully controllable through…
Purely baryonic weak decays of heavy baryons are investigated within the framework of the Skyrme model. These decays belong to a new class of unobserved decay channels, which would help us to test the standard model, particularly potential…
The doubly charmed tetraquark $T_{cc}$ has been reported by the LHCb experiment in 2022, and a lot of theoretical studies has been conducted. The small binding energy measured from $D^{\ast + }D^0$ threshold indicates that $T_{cc}$ is a…
We study the impact of axial-anomaly effects on the chiral phase structure in a $U(3)$-extended soft-wall holographic QCD model. Including the pseudoscalar singlet sector allows for a dynamical description of the $\eta$-$\eta^\prime$ system…
Strong magnetic fields modify the force that confines quarks inside hadrons and make it direction-dependent. Using quark-antiquark potentials obtained from lattice simulations as inputs to a quark potential model, we investigate how the…
