The Two-Gluon Model of the Pomeron predicts strongly size-dependent high-energy hadron cross sections. Yet experimental cross sections for radially excited mesons appear surprisingly close in value. The strong coupling of these mesons in…
This study presents the first observation of ultra-long-range two-particle azimuthal correlations with pseudorapidity separation of ($|\Delta \eta| > 5.0$) in proton-proton (pp) and ($|\Delta \eta| > 6.5$) in proton-lead (p-Pb) collisions…
In this paper, we use the charged-current Higgs boson production process at future electron-proton colliders, $e^-p \to H j \nu_e$, with the subsequent decay of the Higgs boson into a $b\bar{b}$ pair, to probe the Standard Model effective…
Three studies on six-fermion production processes are presented, in which the production of an intermediate-mass Higgs boson, the top-quark physics and the analysis of possible anomalous quartic gauge couplings are considered. A Monte Carlo…
To study the nature of the quark-hadron phase transition, it is important to investigate the space-time structure of the hadron-emitting source in heavy-ion collisions. Measurements of HBT correlations have proven to be a powerful tool to…
In the paper, we consider the processes of single top-quark production in association with dark matter particles through the t-channel in simplified models with scalar and pseudoscalar mediators. Within the framework of these models, we…
We apply a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model to study two-particle angular correlations in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}= 7$ TeV. Besides being able to describe the angular correlation functions of meson-meson pairs, a large improvement for…
We introduce a two-particle correlation function (2PCF) for the Milky Way, constructed to probe spatial correlations in the orthogonal directions of the stellar disk in the Galactic cylindrical coordinates of $R$, $\phi$, and $z$. We use…
Fundamental particle physics is at a cross road. On the one hand the Standard Model successfully accounts for all experimental observations to date. On the other hand the ElectroWeak symmetry breaking mechanism is poorly understood and…
We investigate the sensitivity of a future high-luminosity $e^-e^+$ collider operating at $\sqrt{s}=250~\text{GeV}$ to CP-violating and CP-conserving anomalous $hVV$ interactions via the Higgsstrahlung process. The effects of new physics…
Studies of large-scale structures in the Universe, such as superstructures or cosmic voids, have been widely used to characterize the properties of the cosmic web through statistical analyses. On the other hand, the 2-point correlation…
Top quarks produced in pairs are predicted to experience spin correlations. Due to the large ttbar statistics expected for the LHC, it should be possible to search for new physics effects in angular variables sensitive to these…
We investigate the prospects for discovering axion-like particles (ALPs) via a light-by-light (LBL) scattering at two colliders, the future circular collider (FCC-ee) and circular electron-positron collider (CEPC). The promising…
In a class of theories, dark matter is explained by postulating the existence of a `dark sector', which interacts gravitationally with ordinary matter. If this dark sector contains a U(1) symmetry, and a corresponding `dark' photon…
We consider the production process e-e+ -> G\gamma of invisible gravitons (G) at future linear colliders. We discuss whether the angular distribution of the photon (\gamma) can be used to measure the spin of the invisible graviton, or of…
We propose to probe CP-violation in the heavy (pseudo)scalar sector of an extended Higgs model, in which we make simultaneous use of the $HVV$ ($V=W^\pm, Z$) and $Ht\bar{t}$ interactions of a heavy Higgs state $H$. The CP-even component of…
A dark sector -- a new non-Abelian gauge group Higgsed or confined near the GeV scale -- can be spectacularly probed in low-energy e+e- collisions. A low-mass dark sector can explain the annual modulation signal reported by DAMA/LIBRA and…
Angular correlations of identified particles measured in ultrarelativistic proton-proton (pp) and heavy-ion collisions exhibit a number of features which depend on the collision system and particle type under consideration. Those features…
Future planned lepton colliders, both in the circular and linear configurations, can effectively work as virtual and quasi-real photon-photon colliders and are expected to stimulate an intense physics program in the next few years. In this…
We show how angular distributions can distinguish different scenarios beyond the standard model by characterising particles of different spins at the LHC. We illustrate the idea with scalar and vector leptoquarks along with the heavy…
