We report the first search for a non-standard-model resonance decaying into $\tau$ pairs in $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow \mu^{+}\mu^{-} \tau^+\tau^-$ events in the 3.6-10 GeV/$c^{2}$ mass range. We use a 62.8 fb$^{-1}$ sample of $e^+e^-$…
The Langevin dynamics of a random heteropolymer and its dynamic glass transition are studied using elementary mode coupling theory. Contrary to recent reports using a similar framework, a discontinuous ergodic-nonergodic phase transition is…
The RKKY law and the Kondo screening cloud around a magnetic impurity are investigated for correlated electrons in 1D (Luttinger liquid). We find slow algebraic distance dependences, with a crossover between both types of behavior. Monte…
Strong gravitational lensing is a useful probe of both the intrinsic properties of the lenses and the cosmological parameters of the universe. The large number of model parameters and small sample of observed lens systems, however, have…
I will briefly review the progress which has been made in the investigation of secondary heavy quark production at LEP. I will show why a calculation of the secondary heavy quark multiplicity, keeping the dependence on an event shape…
[Abbreviated] We investigate the dependence of Lyman-$\alpha$ emitter (LAE) clustering on Lyman-$\alpha$ luminosity. We use 1030 LAEs from the MUSE-Wide survey, 679 LAEs from MUSE-Deep, and 367 LAEs from the to-date deepest ever…
The Standard-Model interpretation of the ratios of charged and neutral B-> pi K rates, R_c and R_n, respectively, points towards a puzzling picture. Since these observables are affected significantly by colour-allowed electroweak (EW)…
We release RELIKE (Reionization Effective Likelihood), a fast and accurate effective likelihood code based on the latest Planck 2018 data that allows one constrain any model for reionization between $6 < z < 30$ using five constraints from…
The coupling constant of rho --> eta gamma decay is calculated in the framework of light cone QCD sum rules. A comparison of our prediction on the coupling constant with the result obtained from analysis of the experimental data is…
Through gravity/gauge duality, the string breaking and running coupling constant of heavy quark-antiquark pair are investigated in the rotating background. For the meson decay mode $\rm Q\bar{Q} \rightarrow Q \bar{q}+\bar{Q} q$, we discuss…
The increasing neutrality of the intergalactic medium at z>6 suppresses Ly-alpha emission, and spectroscopic confirmation of galaxy redshifts requires detecting alternative UV lines. The strong [C III] 1907 + C III] 1909 doublet frequently…
Brane world models have shown to be promising to understand the late cosmic acceleration, in particular because such acceleration can be naturally derived, mimicking the dark energy behaviour just with a five dimensional geometry. In this…
We propose a new explanation of the intriguing LSND evidence for electron antineutrino appearance in terms of heavy (mostly sterile) neutrino decay via a coupling with a light scalar and light (mostly active) neutrinos. We perform a fit to…
The collisional coupling of relativistic electrons and non-relativistic ions in hot plasmas has been analysed. It is found that relativistic effects produce a new feature: while the condition T_e<3T_i guarantees a stable collisional…
Taking into account the $SU(3)_f$ breaking effects, the strong coupling constants of the $\pi$, $K$ and $\eta$ mesons with decuplet baryons are calculated within light cone QCD sum rules method. It is shown that all coupling constants, even…
From an accurate determination of the inter-quark potential, one can study the running coupling constant for a range of $R$-values and hence estimate the scale $\Lambda_{\overline{\rm MS}}$. Detailed results are presented for $SU(3)$ pure…
The perspectives for the observation of the rare decay H -> mumu decay and the determination of the muon Yukawa coupling at a TeV-class and at a multi-TeV e+e- linear colliders are discussed. The signal for the decay can be obtained at 0.8…
Results are reported from a search for the production of three-jet resonances in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. The study uses the data sample collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2011, corresponding to…
We prepare a triple quantum dot with a separate contact lead to each dot to study Pauli spin blockade in the tunnel-coupled three dots in a row. We measure the tunneling current flowing between the center dot and either the left or right…
This letter presents the results of a search for a heavy particle decaying into an e mu, e tau, or mu tau final state in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. The data were recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC during 2011 and correspond…
