Internal and Lorentz symmetries are necessarily linked when considering non scalar condensates. Here I review vectorial type condensation due to a non zero chemical potential associated to some of the global conserved charges of the theory.…
New neutrino degrees of freedom allow for more sources of CP-invariance violation (CPV). We explore the requirements for accessing CP-odd mixing parameters in the so-called 3+1 scenario, where one assumes the existence of one extra, mostly…
We demonstrate that in the class of models with Constrained Minimal Flavour Violation (CMFV), in which the CKM matrix is the only source of CP violation and B^0_q-\bar B^0_q mixings (q=d,s) are described by a single operator (\bar b…
CP violation (CPV) in $D^0-\overline{D^0}$ mixing is described in terms of the dispersive and absorptive `weak phases' $\phi_f^M$ and $\phi_f^\Gamma$. They parametrize CPV originating from the interference of $D^0$ decays with and without…
Relations between the nuclear symmetry energy coefficient and its density derivatives are derived. The relations hold for a class of interactions with quadratic momentum dependence and a power-law density dependence. The structural…
We investigate models of charged lepton and neutrino masses and lepton mixing based on broken modular symmetry. The matter fields in these models are assumed to transform in irreducible representations of the finite modular group $\Gamma_4…
Neutrino flavour oscillations imply that there must be charged lepton flavour violation (CLFV) also. Different neutrino mass models predict different patterns of CLFV decays. Neutrino mass generation through standard see-saw mechanisms…
In this paper, we study the cosmological inflation phenomenon in symmergent gravity theory. Symmergent gravity is a novel framework which merges gravity and the standard model (SM) so that the gravity emerges from the matter loops and…
We observe unidirectional charge density wave ordering on the cleaved surface of TbTe3 with a Scanning Tunneling Microscope at ~6 K. The modulation wave-vector q_{CDW} as determined by Fourier analysis is 0.71 +/- 0.02 * 2 pi/c. (Where c is…
The kagome metal CsV$_3$Sb$_5$ shows an unconventional interplay between charge density wave (CDW) order and superconductivity. Tuning the band filling is known to rapidly suppress long-range CDW order and drive the formation of two…
Chiral charge density waves (CDWs) have attracted intense interest due to their exotic quantum properties, yet the microscopic origin of structural chirality emerging from correlated charge order remains elusive. Here, we reveal that the…
The charge symmetry breaking and charge independence breaking N-N ^1S_0 scattering length differences, Delta a_{CSB} and Delta a_{CIB}, are calculated by a resonating group method with a quark cluster model. By adding the QED-QCD…
Recently observed anomalies in the $B_s \to J/\psi \phi$ decay and the like-sign dimuon asymmetry $A^b_{sl}$ hint at possible new physics (NP) in the $\bsbsbar$ mixing. We parameterize the NP with four model-independent quantities: the…
The effects of mass-varying neutrinos on cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies and large scale structures (LSS) are studied. In these models, dark energy and neutrinos are coupled such that the neutrino masses are functions of the…
We consider a composite model where both the Higgs and a complex scalar $\chi$, which is the dark matter (DM) candidate, arise as light pseudo Nambu-Goldstone bosons (pNGBs) from a strongly coupled sector with TeV scale confinement. The…

We explore possible asymmetric dark matter models using CP violating scatterings to generate an asymmetry. In particular, we introduce a new model, based on DM fields coupling to the SM Higgs and lepton doublets, a neutrino portal, and…
We investigate the effects of hidden matter condensation on supersymmetry breaking in supergravity models derived from free fermionic strings. We find that the minimum of the effective potential in the modulus direction depends strongly on…
Bilayer vesicles form readily from mixtures of charged and neutral surfactants. When such a mixed vesicle binds an oppositely-charged object, its membrane partially demixes: the adhesion zone recruits more charged surfactants from the rest…
