Equation of state of uncharged bosonic matter is studied within a field-theoretical approach in the mean-field approximation. Interaction of bosons is described by a scalar field $\sigma$ with a Skyrme-like potential which contains both…
We study the possibility of probing the existence of a light, invisible, axion-like particle (ALP) $a$ in leptonic decays of the $Z$ boson at the proposed high-energy $e^+e^-$ colliders, CEPC and FCC-ee. Both projects plan to run at the $Z$…
Hadronic decays of Higgs bosons, not necessarily into b-quarks, have been searched for using data collected at LEP-2. Such searches are complementary to the usual Standard Model Higgs searches and lead to more model-independence.…

We explore the use of polarized $e^+/e^-$ beams and/or the information on final state decay lepton polarizations in probing the interaction of the Higgs boson with a pair of vector bosons. A model independent analysis of the process $e^+…

Dynamics of strongly interacting Fermi gases, consisting of a 50-50 mixture of two different fermionic species, is investigated. For the equation of state we consider a Pad\'{e} [2/2] approximations, which gives the weak-coupling…
We propose a general approach to analyse diagonal ordering patterns in bosonic lattice models with algebraically decaying density-density interactions on arbitrary lattices. The key idea is a systematic search for the energetically best…
We give a proof of the exact asymptotic behaviour in Anderson's Orthogonality Catastrophe for Dirac-$\delta$ perturbations. We prove the exact asymptotics of the scalar product of the ground states of two non-interacting Fermi gases…
We extract the strong coupling $\alpha_s(m_\tau^2)$ from the recently updated ALEPH non-strange spectral functions obtained from hadronic $\tau$ decays. We apply a self-consistent analysis method, first tested in the analysis of OPAL data,…

Bose-Einstein correlations of pairs of identical charged pions produced in hadronic Z decays are analyzed in terms of various parametrizations. A good description is achieved using a Levy stable distribution in conjunction with a…
The CDF experiment at the Tevatron $p\bar{p}$ collider established that extensive and detailed exploration of the $b$--quark dynamics is possible in hadron collisions, with results competitive and supplementary to those from $e^+e^-$…
We employ a family of ancilla qubit variational wave-functions [Zhang and Sachdev, Phys. Rev. Res. 2, 023172 (2020)] to describe the polaronic correlations in the pseudo-gap metal phase of a hole-doped 2D Fermi-Hubbard model. Comparison to…

The production of final state photons in hadronic $Z$-boson decays can be used to study the quark-to-photon fragmentation function $D_{q\to \gamma}(z,\mu_{F})$. Currently, two different observables are used at LEP to probe this function:…
Long-range correlation plays an important role in analyses of pionic Bose-Einstein correlations (BECs). In many cases, such correlations are phenomenologically introduced. In this investigation, we propose an analytic form. By making use of…

Following our earlier work we establish kinematic endpoint relations for baryon decays using the Wigner-Eckart theorem and apply them to $\frac{1}{2} \to \frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{1}{2} \to \frac{3}{2}$ baryon transitions. We provide angular…
