We study the next-to-leading order (NLO) electroweak (EW) corrections to the $\gamma \gamma \to \tau^+ \tau^-$ process in Pb-Pb ultraperipheral collision (UPC). We find that the EW correction $\delta \sigma_{\mathrm{EW}}$ decreases the…
A major difficulty in quantum simulation is the adequate treatment of a large collection of entangled particles, synonymous with electron correlation in electronic structure theory, with coupled cluster (CC) theory being the leading…
We report on the calculation of the full next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the production of top anti-top bottom anti-bottom (ttbb) final states at the LHC, which deliver a serious background contribution to the production of a Higgs…
The nuclear modification factor, $R_{\rm AA}$, of the prompt charmed mesons ${\rm D^0}$, ${\rm D^+}$ and ${\rm D^{*+}}$, and their antiparticles, was measured with the ALICE detector in Pb-Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy…
In this work we study the T, CP and CPT symmetries in the B-meson system. Our analysis and results are addressed to the case of correlated mesons in the B-factories. In the first set of theory and results we investigate the consequences of…
The $O(\alpha_{ew}m_{t(b)}^{2}/m_{W}^{2})$ and $O(\alpha_{ew} m_{t(b)}^4/m_W^4)$ supersymmetric electroweak corrections to the cross section for $W^{\pm}H^{\mp}$ associated production at the LHC are calculated in the minimal supersymmetric…
In a two-mode Bose-Josephson junction formed by a binary mixture of ultracold atoms, macroscopic superpositions of phase states are produced during the time evolution after a sudden quench to zero of the coupling amplitude. Using quantum…
The almost hermetic coverage of CMS is used to measure the distribution of transverse energy as a function of pseudo-rapidity for pPb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 5.02$ TeV. For minimum bias collisions $(1/N)~dE_T/d\eta$ reaches 23 GeV…
We re-analyze charged lepton corrections to neutrino mixing angles and CP phases, carefully including CP phases from the charged lepton sector. We present simple analytical formulae for including the charged lepton corrections and derive…
The existence of a normal state spectral gap in underdoped cuprates raises important questions about the associated superconducting phase. For example, how does this pseudogap evolve into its below Tc counterpart? In this paper we…
This work is a collection of initial calculations and formal considerations within the Salpeter-Sucher exact equal-time relativistic quantum electrodynamics framework. The calculations are carried out as preparation for the computation of…
We consider the QCD corrections to the electric dipole moment of the neutron in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We provide a master formula for the Wilson coefficients at the low energy scale including for the first time the…
Certain types of asymmetries in neutral meson physics have not been treated properly, ignoring the difference of normalization factors with an assumption of the equality of total decay width. Since the corrected asymmetries in $B^0$ meson…
We have studied the novel isotope effects on the pairing pseudogap in underdoped and optimally doped cuprates within the large-polaron model and two non-standard BCS-like approaches. We have shown that in the intermediate-coupling regime…
Two new schemes for computing molecular total atomization energies (TAEs) and/or heats of formation ($\Delta H^\circ_f$) of first-and second-row compounds to very high accuracy are presented. The more affordable scheme, W1 (Weizmann-1)…
We calculate the Yukawa corrections of order ${\cal O}(\alpha_{ew}m_{t(b)}^2/m_W^2)$, ${\cal O}(\alpha_{ew}m_{t(b)}^3/m_W^3)$ and ${\cal O}(\alpha_{ew}m_{t(b)}^4/m_W^4)$ to the widths of the decays $\tilde t_2\to \tilde t_1 + (h^0,H^0,A^0)$…
We update the global constraint on four-fermion $ee q q$ contact interactions. In this update, we included the published data of H1 and ZEUS for the 94--96 run in the $e^+ p$ mode and the newly published data of H1 for the 1999 run in the…
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measures core-electron binding energies (CEBEs) to reveal element-specific insights into chemical environment and bonding. Accurate theoretical CEBE prediction aids XPS interpretation but requires…
We study the effective parameters of QED near decoupling temperatures and show that the QED perturbative series is convergent, at temperatures below the decoupling temperature. The renormalization constant of QED acquires different values…
As double heavy quarkonia, charmonium and bottomonium are generally considered to have small relativistic corrections and can be treated using nonrelativistic models. However, this is not always the case. In this paper, we employ the…
