The study of the decoherence of qubits in spin systems is almost restricted to environments whose constituents are spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ particles. In this paper we consider environments that are composed of particles of higher spin, and we…

The top quark may hold the key to new physics associated with the electroweak symmetry-breaking sector, given its large mass and enhanced coupling to the Higgs sector. We systematically categorize generic interactions of a new particle that…
Stops with the mass nearly degenerate with the top mass, decaying into tops and soft neutralinos, are usually dubbed "stealth stops". Their kinematics looks very similar to that of the standard tops events, which leads to events with little…

We consider the pairing of electrons and holes due to their Coulomb attraction in two parallel, independently gated graphene layers, separated by a barrier. At weak coupling, there exist the BCS-like pair-condensed state. Despite the fact…
"Portal" models that connect the Standard Model to a Dark Sector allow for a wide variety of scenarios beyond the simplest WIMP models. Kinetic mixing of gauge fields in particular has allowed a broad range of new ideas. However, the models…
