These notes are based on lectures given during the Summer School `Active Matter and Nonequilibrium Statistical Physics', held in Les Houches in September 2018. Dry, aligning, dilute, active matter (DADAM), with its many adjectives, refers…
Guided by non-relativistic Effective Field Theory (EFT) we classify the most general spin-dependent interactions between a fermionic Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) and nuclei, and within this class of models we discuss the…
Starting from a unitary, Lorentz invariant two-particle scattering amplitude , we show how to use an identification and replacement process to construct a unique, unitary particle-antiparticle amplitude. This process differs from…
We study the excitation spectra and the dynamical structure factor of quantum Hall states in a finite size system through exact diagonalization. Comparison is made between the numerical results so obtained and the analytic results obtained…
The scattering and spectroscopic properties of molecular halo states can serve as sensitive probes of the constancy of the electron-to-proton mass ratio $\beta=m_e/m_p$. Since halo states are formed by resonant $s$-wave interactions, their…

The two-dimensional one-component plasma at the special coupling \beta = 2 is known to be exactly solvable, for its free energy and all of its correlations, on a variety of surfaces and with various boundary conditions. Here we study this…
We derive the contact terms contributing to the four-point amplitudes of the standard-model particles, keeping terms with up to quartic energy growth. Imposing just the unbroken low-energy symmetry, and treating the electroweak gauge bosons…
We re-examine the case of anapole dark matter as an explanation for the DAMA annual modulation in light of the DAMA/LIBRA-phase2 results and improved upper limits from other DM searches. If the WIMP velocity distribution is assumed to be a…
We calculate the two-loop QCD anomalous dimension matrix (ADM) gamma^(1)_NDR in the NDR-MSbar scheme for all the flavour-changing four-quark dimension-six operators that are relevant in both the Standard Model and its extensions. Both…
We elaborate on the application of on-shell and unitarity-based methods for evaluating renormalization group coefficients, and generalize this framework to account for the mixing of operators with different dimensions and leading mass…
The dynamic hyperpolarizability of a particle bound by the one-dimensional $\delta$-function potential is obtained in closed form. On the first step, we analyze the singular structure of the non-linear response function as given by the…

$\Lambda$-doublet spectra of light diatomic radicals have high sensitivity to the possible variations of the fine structure constant alpha and electron-to-proton mass ratio beta. For molecules OH and CH sensitivity is further enhanced…
We consider directional correlations between M-particles on a line. For non-interacting particles we find analytic asymptotic expressions. When delta-interaction is introduced in the model we study the Fourier analysis and obtain general…
Non-linear sigma models with extended supersymmetry have constrained target space geometries, and can serve as effective tools for investigating and constructing new geometries. Analyzing the geometrical and topological properties of sigma…
This paper considers nonlinear dynamics of plasma oscillations modeled by a forced modified Van der Pol-Duffing oscillator. These plasma oscillations are described by a nonlinear differential equation of the form $ \ddot{x}+ \epsilon (1…
It is usually argued that the Standard Model predicts slow D^0-\bar D^0 oscillations with \Delta M_D, \Delta \Gamma_D < 10^{-3}*\Gamma_D$ and that New Physics can reveal itself through \Delta M_D exceeding 10^{-3}*\Gamma_D. It is believed…
