We study ultralight scalar fields with quadratic couplings to Standard-Model fermions and derive strong constraints from white-dwarf mass-radius data. Such couplings source scalar profiles inside compact stars, shift fermion masses, and can…
The origin of the three fermion generations and their highly hierarchical mass spectra remains one of the most profound puzzles in particle physics. We show that the complexified exceptional Jordan algebra $J_{3}(\mathbb{O}_{\mathbb{C}})$,…
The Standard Model of particle physics is derived from first principles from the free Dirac Lagrangian in 8-dimensional spacetime. Motivated by second quantization arguments, we embed the 4-dimensional Clifford algebra of the Dirac…
One of the forthcoming major challenges in particle physics is the experimental determination of the Higgs trilinear self-coupling. While efforts have largely focused on on-shell double- and single-Higgs production in proton-proton…
It is demonstrated how a set of particle representations, familiar from the Standard Model, collectively form a superalgebra. Those representations mirroring the internal behaviour of the Standard Model's gauge bosons, and three generations…
We propose using highly excited cyclotron states of a trapped electron to detect meV axion and dark photon dark matter, marking a significant improvement over our previous proposal and demonstration [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 261801]. When the…
In Effective Field Theory, we describe $\mu\leftrightarrow e$ flavour changing transitions using an operator basis motivated by experimental observables. In a six-dimensional subspace probed by $\mu \to e \gamma$, $\mu \to 3e$ and $\mu\to…
High-temperature dimensional reduction provides a systematic effective field theory framework for studying finite-temperature thermodynamics and cosmological phase transitions. While the matching of super-renormalizable operators in the…
Neutrino oscillation experiments present anomalous results across a vast range of baselines and energies. Here we show that a 3+1 scenario in which sterile neutrinos feel a novel matter potential $V_s$ proportional to background density of…
Inspired by the latest BESIII measurement of the $\Lambda(1520)\to\gamma\Sigma^0$ radiative decay, we systematically study the decays $\Lambda(1520)\to\gamma\Lambda(\Sigma^0)$ within the chiral unitary approach, where the $\Lambda(1520)$ is…
$D$ meson decays into neutral kaons involve both Cabibbo-favored and doubly Cabibbo-suppressed amplitudes as well as final-state kaon mixing, providing abundant sources of CP violation. In this work, we analyze CP asymmetries in the $D\to…
We perform a systematic study of two-meson form factors of the scalar, vector, and anti-symmetric tensor types within the framework of the $U(3)$ resonance chiral theory. The complete perturbative form factors in both the…
Optimal observables provide statistically powerful probes of small deformations from a reference theory, but in realistic collider measurements they are rarely available in compact analytic form. We show that interpretable event-level…
We calculate the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QED corrections to the $C$-odd part of the differential cross section of the $e^+e^-\to\mu^+\mu^-$ process. This part contributes to the angular and forward-backward asymmetry. Together…
We show that flying focus fields can be obtained from complex conformal transformation of plane waves, and that solutions of the massless wave equation in the so-obtained fields are, correspondingly, conformal transformations of the Volkov…
Motivated by the increasing precision of neutrino oscillation data, we study the corrections to the TM$_2$ neutrino mixing framework, emanating from $(1,2)$ sector of the charged lepton, for both the standard LMA and dark-LMA solutions. We…
In this article we consider a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-odd $SU(2)$ quartet with hypercharge $Y = +\frac{1}{2}$ as an extension of the Standard Model whose scalar potential which introduces three additional Higgs portal and two self-couplings. We…
We present a complete calculation of the one-loop self-energies for all fields in the linear sigma model coupled to quarks at finite temperature and in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. The analysis consistently incorporates thermal…
We present a study of the $\tau^- \to \omega\pi^-\nu_\tau$ decay in the framework of low-energy effective field theory. By analyzing the $J^{PG}$ quantum numbers of the quark currents and the $\omega\pi$ final state, we find that only the…
Collinear factorization and color-glass condensate (CGC) effective field theory are generally treated as separate approaches for calculating scattering amplitudes, valid in different kinematic regimes. For deep inelastic scattering at high…
