We explore the possibility of using CP violation in B decays to detect the presence of physics beyond the Standard Model. We first study the possibility of new physics in the $B-\bar B$ mixing amplitude. We discuss a construction to extract…
Within the frame of a novel treatment we make a complete mathematical analysis of exactly solvable one-dimensional quantum systems with non-constant mass, involving their ordering ambiguities. This work extends the results recently reported…
We give tight lower and upper bounds on the expected missing mass for distributions over finite and countably infinite spaces. An essential characterization of the extremal distributions is given. We also provide an extension to totally…
This brief paper develops a probability density that models processes for which the physical mechanism is unknown. It has desirable properties which are not realized by densities derived from Gaussian process or other classic methods. In…
Collisions resulting in fragmentation are important in shaping the mass spectrum of minor bodies in the asteroid belt, the Kuiper belt, and debris disks. Models of fragmentation cascades typically find that in steady-state, the solution for…
Mass partition problems describe the partitions we can induce on a family of measures or finite sets of points in Euclidean spaces by dividing the ambient space into pieces. In this survey we describe recent progress in the area in addition…
Modified scattering phenomena are encountered in the study of global properties for nonlinear dispersive partial differential equations in situations where the decay of solutions at infinity is borderline and scattering fails just barely.…
We consider new-physics (NP) contributions to the decay t -> b \bar{b} c. We parameterize the NP couplings by an effective Lagrangian consisting of 10 Lorentz structures. We show that the presence of NP can be detected through the…
We extend the range of possible applications of MT2 type analyses to decay chains with multiple invisible particles, as well as to asymmetric event topologies with different parent and/or different children particles. We advocate two…
In this talk, I review the various measurements that have been made over the years of CP-violating observables in $B$ decays. These include indirect CP asymmetries, direct CP asymmetries, and triple products. All are discussed in the…
We analyze a pair of diffusion equations which are derived in the infinite system--size limit from a microscopic, individual--based, stochastic model. Deviations from the conventional Fickian picture are found which ultimately relate to the…
In Physics, we have laws that determine the time evolution of a given physical system, depending on its parameters and its initial conditions. When we have multi-stable systems, many attractors coexist so that their basins of attraction…
The kinematic end-point technique for measuring the masses of supersymmetric particles in R-Parity conserving models at hadron colliders is re-examined with a focus on exploiting additional constraints arising from correlations in invariant…
A model-independent analysis of decays of the form C -> l+ l- A (l=e,mu) is presented, including the possibility that this three-body decay is preceded by an additional decay step D -> j C. Here A, C and D are heavy new-physics particles…
Differences between measured nuclear masses and those calculated using the Finite Range Droplet Model are analyzed. It is shown that they have a well defined, clearly correlated oscillatory component as a function of the proton and neutron…
Motivated by a recent Belle~II measurement that suggests an excess in the rare decay $B \to K\, E_{\rm miss}$, and building upon our recent differential decay rate likelihood analysis of the existing experimental information, we investigate…
We consider stochastic non-linear diffusion equations with a highly singular diffusivity term and multiplicative gradient-type noise. We study existence and uniqueness of non-negative variational solutions in terms of stochastic variational…
A short overview of FCNC and CP-violating observables in K decays is presented. Particular attention is paid to the possibility of performing precision tests of flavour dynamics and to the search for New Physics.
We apply the supersymmetry approach to one-dimensional quantum systems with spatially-dependent mass, by including their ordering ambiguities dependence. In this way we extend the results recently reported in the literature. Furthermore, we…
We present a technique that allows to obtain certain results in the compressible fluid theory: in particular, it is a nonexistence result for the highly decreasing at infinity solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations, the construction of…
