We analyze the constraint structure of a spin-3/2 particle interacting with a pseudoscalar. Requiring the self consistency of the considered effective field theory imposes restrictions on the possible interaction terms. In the present case…
We show that for any effective field theory of colorless meson fields, the mixing schemes of particle states and decay constants are not only related but also determined exclusively by the kinetic and mass Lagrangian densities. In the…
We investigate a dark energy scenario in which a canonical scalar field $\phi$ is coupled to the four velocity $u_{c}^{\mu}$ of cold dark matter (CDM) through a derivative interaction $u_{c}^{\mu} \partial_{\mu} \phi$. The coupling is…
We study the relationship between the strength of fifth forces and the origin of scale breaking in the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. We start with a light scalar field that is conformally coupled to a toy SM matter sector through…
We consider an interacting system of massless scalar and electromagnetic field, with the Lagrangian explicitly depending on the electromagnetic potentials, i.e., interaction with broken gauge invariance. The Lagrangian for interaction is…

Dimension-five photon $(\gamma )$ scalar $(\phi)$ interaction terms usually appear in the bosonic sector of unified theories of electromagnetism and gravity. In these theories the three propagation eigenstates are different from the three…

The kinetic mixing (KM) of a dark photon (DP) with the familiar one of the Standard Model (SM) requires the existence of a new set of fields, called portal matter (PM), which carry both SM and dark sector quantum numbers, some whose masses…

We investigate the phenomenology of a heavy scalar $\phi$ of the type involved in Bekenstein's framework for varying electromagnetic coupling theories, with the difference that the scalar in our model has a large mass. The model has only…

A new $U(1)_X$ gauge boson $X$ primarily interacting with a dark sector can have renormalizable kinetic mixing with the standard model (SM) $U(1)_Y$ gauge boson $Y$. This mixing besides introduces interactions of dark photon and dark sector…
The meson-photon transition form factors $\gamma\gamma^*\to P$ ($P$ stands for $\pi$, $\eta$ and $\eta'$) provide strong constraints on the distribution amplitudes of the pseudoscalar mesons. In this paper, these transition form factors are…
Unification ideas motivate the formulation of field equations on an extended spin space. Demanding that the Poincare symmetry be maintained, one derives scalar symmetries that are associated with flavor and gauge groups. Boson and fermion…

A coupling between a scalar field (representing the dark energy) and dark matter could produce rich phenomena in cosmology. It affects cosmic structure formation mainly through the fifth force, a velocity-dependent force that acts parallel…
