Hidden sector particles with sub-GeV masses like hidden U(1) gauge bosons, the NMSSM CP-odd Higgs, and other axion-like particles are experimentally little constrained as they interact only very weakly with the visible sector. For masses…
We analyze the implications of a Higgs discovery on possible ``new-physics'' scenarios, for $m_H$ up to $\sim 700$ GeV. For this purpose we critically review lower and upper limits on the Higgs mass in the SM and in the MSSM, respectively.…
In a recent inelastic neutron scattering experiment in the pseudogap state of the high temperature superconductor $\mathrm{YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{6.6}}$ an unusual `vertical' dispersion of the spin excitations with a large in-plane anisotropy was…
Although there are some experimental hints for the higher excited $\rho$ mesons, our knowledge of their properties is much poor theoretically. Based on our recent work about excited $\rho$ mesons [Phys.Rev.D104(2021)034013], we present the…
We construct the effective field theory for a single massive higher-spin particle in flat spacetime. Positivity bounds of the S-matrix force the cutoff of the theory to be well below the naive strong-coupling scale, forbid any potential and…
We derive two rigorous constraints on the spectrum of massive states in weakly coupled theories with massless scalars in the adjoint representation of a large-$N$ gauge group. First, we show that the presence of massive spinning states…
We have studied the relaxation of a spin-polarized gas in a magnetic field, in the presence of short-range spin-dependent interactions. As a main result we have established a link between the specific properties of the interaction and the…
We discuss the fine structure and spin dynamics of spin-3/2 centers associated with silicon vacancies in silicon carbide. The centers have optically addressable spin states which makes them highly promising for quantum technologies. The…
The study of two-pseudoscalar and two-photon decays for the scalar meson nonet below 1 GeV is performed within an effective approach in which the scalar resonances are described as (Jaffe's) tetraquark states. The dominant (fall apart…
We present a high magnetic field study of electron spin waves in atomic hydrogen gas compressed to high densities of 10^18 cm^-3 at temperatures ranging from 0.26 to 0.6 K. We observed a variety of spin wave modes caused by the identical…
The strong and radiative decay properties of the low-lying $\Omega_c$ states are studied in a constituent quark model. We find that the newly observed $\Omega_c$ states by the LHCb Collaboration can fit in well the decay patterns. Thus,…
We analyze the phenomenology of the top-pion and top-Higgs states in models with strong top dynamics, and translate the present LHC searches for the Standard Model Higgs into bounds on these scalar states. We explore the possibility that…
The masses of excited charmed mesons are shown to decrease by $\sim (50-150)$~MeV due to a flattening of the confining potential at large distances, which effectively takes into account open decay channels. The scale of the mass shifts is…
The experimentally known $B_c$ states are all below open bottom-charm threshold, which experience three main decay modes, and all induced by weak interaction. In this work, we investigate the mass spectrum and strong decays of the $B_c(3S)$…
