High Energy Physics - Phenomenology
The LHCb Collaboration has recently reported the first observation of the decay $\bar B_s^0\to \Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$, along with measurements of the branching fractions for both $\bar B^0\to \Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$ and $\bar…
QCD collinear factorization allows coherent hard exclusive reactions to reveal the quark-gluon structure of light nuclei, enabling their 3D tomography. We study elastic form factors and deeply virtual Compton scattering on a helium-4…
We present a quantum enhanced tagger to identify jets with large Lorentz boost at colliders. For the first time, a convolutional quantum graph neural network (QGNN) is designed to discriminate boosted jets arising from hadronic decays of…
We present a phenomenological study of $t\bar{t}t\bar{t}$ production in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$~TeV, using a Hyper-Graph Neural Network (H-GNN) to discriminate multilepton signal events from the dominant SM backgrounds,…
We compute the gravitational form factors (GFFs) of the pion and kaon using their light-front wave functions within the Basis Light-Front Quantization framework. The wave functions are obtained by solving a light-front effective Hamiltonian…
In the extended NJL model, two-body strong decays of the radially excited $\eta(1295)$ and $\eta(1475)$ mesons are described. It is shown that the two-body decays $\eta(1475)\to K_0^*K, a_0\pi$ play a dominant role in determining the width…
In the phenomenological study of exotic hadrons, the sign of the effective range, $r_0$, is invoked as a criterion to distinguish between compact multiquark configurations (associated with $r_0 < 0$) and loosely bound hadronic molecules…
A minimal and predictive neutrino mass matrix texture for Majorana neutrino is proposed. The texture favours the normal hierarchy of neutrino mass eigenvalues. It further predicts the octant of $\theta_{23}$, constraints $\delta$, gives…
This work presents a spectroscopy-focused study of the compact open-charm, multi-strange tetraquark configuration \(cs\bar{s}\bar{s}\), modeled as an axial diquark-antidiquark system \([cs][\bar{s}\bar{s}]\). The conventional \(D_s\) meson…
We study vacuum electron-positron pair production in a spatially uniform bichromatic electric field within the quantum-kinetic framework for fermions. The external background models the superposition of two counterpropagating circularly…
In this work we study the radiative decays of $B\to \rho (\omega)\gamma$ processes in the modified perturbative QCD approach, where the transverse momenta of the quark and gluons envolved in the interaction process are kept, and the Sudakov…
Monte Carlo event generators are central to high-energy physics analysis. However, workflows based on handwritten scripts can be difficult to reuse, modify, and reproduce when multiple Monte Carlo models, tune variations, run variations,…
In this paper, as a continuation of our previous work, we systematically study the mass spectra and OZI-allowed strong decays of the higher $3S$-, $2P$-, $2D$-, and $1F$-wave charmed and charmed-strange mesons within a unified unquenched…
We systematically investigate baryon number violating (BNV) nucleon decays into one lepton ($e,\mu,\nu/\bar\nu$) and two pseudoscalar mesons ($\pi\pi,\pi\eta,\pi K$) within the low-energy effective field theory (LEFT) framework. By…
Recent developments suggest that the extremization of quantum entanglement may provide a useful organizing principle for strong dynamics. While entanglement suppression characterizes low-energy QCD, we investigate the role of entanglement…
Ultralight dark matter can induce weak oscillating magnetic-like signals and can therefore be searched for with precision magnetometry. Levitated ferromagnets provide a sensitive platform for such searches, but a single ferromagnet is…
In this work, we investigate the constituent parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the kaon and heavy pseudoscalar mesons within the light-cone quark model. Starting from the initial scale quark and antiquark PDFs, obtained by evaluating…
In this work, we enumerated the mass spectra of the experimentally unobserved $1F$-wave states with the the orbital angular momentum $L$ = 3 for the singly heavy $\Sigma_{Q}$, $\Xi^{\prime}_{Q}$, and $\Omega_{Q}$ $(Q=c, b)$ baryons in the…
In a model-independent context, we perform a systematic and detailed study of the fermion flavor masses and mixings. In this analysis, we present a most general parameterization form of the $3 \times 3$ mass matrix, as well as the…
Light, weakly coupled sectors can retain information about the cosmological background in which they are produced. We study light axions produced during reheating and their contribution to dark radiation, $\Delta N_{\rm eff}$. We develop a…
