In the framework of the improved chromomagnetic interaction model, we complete a systematic study of the $S$-wave tetraquark states $Qq\bar{Q}\bar{q}$ ($Q=c,b$, and $q=u,d,s$) with different quantum numbers, $J^{PC}=0^{+(+)}$, $1^{+(\pm)}$,…
I present a concise review of the possible evidence for new physics at HERA and of the recent work towards a theoretical interpretation of the signal. It is not clear yet if the excess observed at large Q^2 is a resonance or a continuum…
We report the results of a search for the Theta*++ pentaquark in the decay B+ -> Theta*++ pbar where Theta*++ -> pK+ using 81fb^-1 of data collected on the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BaBar detector at PEP-II. We find an upper limit on…
The exclusive reactions $\gamma p \to \bar K^0 K^+ n$ and $\gamma p \to \bar K^0 K^0 p$ have been studied in the photon energy range 1.6--3.8 GeV, searching for evidence of the exotic baryon $\Theta^+(1540)$ in the decays $\Theta^+\to nK^+$…
In this work we investigate the consequences of the Jaffe and Wilczek diquark model in the framework of QCD sum rules. An analysis of the Theta^+(1540) as (ud)^2\bar{s} state shows that the mass of the pentaquark is compatible with the…
The B-physics potential of the ATLAS experiment at LHC is described. Simulation results are shown for the measurement of sin(2beta), with an emphasis on new tagging techniques. Other CP-violation measurements are described briefly. New…
The properties of three new particles X(3872), Y(3940) and Z(3931), recently dicovered by the Belle collaboration, are briefly reviewed. Negative results of the search for the pentaquark $\Theta(1540)^+$ are also presented
This report summarizes recent results of inclusive and differential $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$ cross section measurements from the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations at the LHC. Measurements at $\sqrt{s}=7,\ 8,\ 13$, and $13.6\,$TeV are compared to…
The kaon nuclear optical potential is studied including the effect of the $\Theta^+$ pentaquark. The one-nucleon contribution is obtained using an extension of the J\"ulich meson-exchange potential as bare kaon-nucleon interaction.…
We discuss model independent methods to measure the $P$-parity of the $\Theta^+$-pentaquark, in the simplest processes of photoproduction, $\gamma+N\to \bar{K}+\Theta^+$, using definite relations between T-even polarization observables,…
We present a Bayesian analysis of the epistemology of analogue experiments with particular reference to Hawking radiation. First, we prove that such experiments can be confirmatory in Bayesian terms based upon appeal to 'universality…
We consider highly inaccurate measurements made on classical stochastic and quantum systems. In the quantum case such a \e{weak} measurement preserves coherence between the system's alternatives. We demonstrate that in both cases the…
Using kaon secondary interactions in the material of the Belle detector, we search for both inclusive and exclusive production of the Theta(1540)+. We set an upper limit of 2.5% at the 90% C.L. on the ratio of the Theta(1540)+ to…
Between the ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the LHC, hundreds of individual event selections have been measured in the data to look for evidence of supersymmetry at a center of mass energy of 8 TeV. While there is currently no significant…
The precise measurement of parity-violating asymmetries in parity-violating electron scattering experiments is a powerful tool for probing new physics beyond the Standard Model. Achieving the expected precision requires both experimental…
We provide an interpretation of entanglement based on classical correlations between measurement outcomes of complementary properties: states that have correlations beyond a certain threshold are entangled. The reverse is not true, however.…
Recent progress in theories of quantum information has determined nonclassical correlation defined differently from widely-used entanglement as an important property to evaluate computation and communication with mixed quantum states. We…
We report a measurement of the charge asymmetry in top quark pair production with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC using 20.3 fb$^{-1}$ of pp collision data at $\sqrt{s}$ = 8 TeV. The data are unfolded using a fully Bayesian unfolding…
We carry out an analysis of the pentaquark $\Theta^+$ photoproduction with polarized photon beams. Kinematical and dynamical aspects are examined for the purpose of determining $\Theta^+$'s spin and parity. It shows that the polarized…
Quantum coherence stemming from the superposition behaviour of a particle beyond the classical realm, serves as one of the most fundamental features in quantum mechanics. The wave-particle duality phenomenon, which shares the same origin,…
