In this work, we study the renormalization-group evolution of parameters in the three-dimensional effective field theory (3D EFT) that describes the thermally driven electroweak phase transition of the Higgs field. We consider tree-level…
Motivated by several mild excesses around 95~GeV, we investigate the prospects for a light scalar $S$ produced via Higgsstrahlung, $e^+e^- \to Z(\mu^+\mu^-)S$, at future $e^+e^-$ Higgs factories. We take the CEPC as a benchmark, with a…
Upcoming near-infrared facilities (e.g. JWST/NIRCam, ELT/MICADO) will dramatically increase the detectability of galactic center Cepheids despite extreme extinction at optical wavelengths. In this work, we study the impact of dark matter…
We report the first calculation of light scattering on heavy dark matter (DM) particles. We show that despite the fact that DM has no direct coupling to photons, the light-DM($\gamma\chi$) ($m_\chi \sim 1$ TeV) cross-section is…
We demonstrate that the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) and the Festina-Lente Conjecture (FLC) yield novel bounds on fifth force searches and milli-Charged Particles (mCPs), as well as on the scale of inflation and on the effective Higgs…
It is well-known that atoms can change their shape when subject to external electromagnetic fields. Analogous phenomenon is expected for particles, which are much smaller in size with the corresponding shape change much harder to observe.…
Recent study [1] has suggested that warm inflation may be realized with a minimal extension of the Standard Model by a single scalar inflaton field with an axion-like coupling to gluons. Motivated by this framework, we investigate the…
Heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) are well-motivated new physics candidates. The mixing of sub-GeV HNLs with active neutrinos is severely constrained by cosmology. In particular, the success of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) requires the HNL…
We present the Non-Relativistic QCD (NRQCD) calculations at the next-to-leading order (NLO) of $\alpha_s$ for $B_c^*\to \eta_c$ vector, axial-vector, tensor and axial-tensor form factors, and obtain complete analytical expressions for the…
The quest for a common origin of neutrino mass and baryogenesis is one of the longstanding goals in particle physics. A minimal gauge extension of the Standard Model by $U(1)_{\rm B-L}$ symmetry provides a unique scenario to explain the…
We study a quasi two-zero neutrino texture based on a type-II seesaw model with modular $A_4$ symmetry to evade the cosmological bound on the sum of neutrino masses while keeping some predictability in the neutrino sector. Working on three…
We propose a novel test to assess the unitarity of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix, $V_{\rm CKM}$, at present and future collider experiments. Our strategy makes use of the $W^+W^-$ production cross section to directly probe the…
We apply the recently developed analysis of 16 years of INTEGRAL/SPI data including a dark matter spatial template to derive bounds on dark matter candidates lighter than WIMPs (like sterile neutrinos or axion-like particles) decaying into…
We argue that a detailed analysis of semileptonic decays can test the possibility of a massive neutrino. The key observable, related to the forward-backward asymmetry, is exactly zero for a massless neutrino but becomes non-zero if the…
The first order chiral phase transition for quark matter with flavor imbalance is studied using the Linear sigma model with quarks, also known as Quark-meson model. Special attention is paid to the role of the scalar isovector meson. The…
We propose a minimal one-loop radiative framework for Dirac neutrino mass matrix. As a consequence, the Yukawa hierarchies among the SM fermions are alleviated, and radiative type-I seesaw framework is realized. To regulate divergent loop…
This work presents a detailed account of the Feynman integrals required for the three-loop hadronic vacuum polarization calculation performed in arXiv:2510.12885. We explain how to compute each of the three-loop integrals, and outline the…
We systematically derive expressions for ten small-$x$ Transverse Momentum Dependent (TMD) distributions in the Gaussian approximation, three in the quark-gluon sector and seven in the gluon-gluon sector; for the general $SU(N_c)$ gauge…
We present a model calculation of the transverse-momentum-dependent distributions (TMDs) for gluons in a tensor-polarized deuteron. Our model is based on the assumption that an on-shell deuteron can emit a time-like off-shell gluon, while…
We investigate the effects of polarization on several physical observables in the semileptonic decay $\Xi_{cc}^{++} \rightarrow \Xi_c^{+} \bar{\ell}\nu_{\ell}$. We analyze the polarization effects of the particles involved in the decay,…
