We present a minimal basis for non-derivative baryon-number-violating operators in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory up to mass dimension 11, as well as for the $(\Delta B,\Delta L) = (2,2)$ and $(2,-2)$ operators at dimension 12.…

We study an extension of the singlet-scalar Higgs portal featuring a dark vector $V_\mu$ and a real scalar $\phi$. The vector is a dark matter (DM) candidate, while $\phi$ is long-lived and decays via higher-dimensional operators. We…

We present the first version of the new scanning tool NMSSMScanner that allows to perform efficient scans in the complex multi-parameter space of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (NMSSM) while taking into…

We present a general and systematic framework to quantify uncertainties arising from imperfectly known systematic correlations in data combinations. Formulated at the level of the combined data, the method enables controlled variation of…

Recent measurements of the integrated CP asymmetry in $\tau \to K\pi\nu_\tau$ decays by the BaBar collaboration exhibit a $2.8\sigma$ deviation from the Standard Model (SM) prediction. In this work, we investigate CP-violating effects in…

We present a solution to the strong CP problem in which a simple chiral U(1) gauge symmetry gives rise to an accidental Peccei-Quinn symmetry that is both explicitly and spontaneously broken by mirror QCD dynamics, yielding a framework…

The total decay widths of heavy mesons can be systematically calculated in terms of an expansion in the two parameters $1/m_Q$ and $\alpha_s(m_Q)$, where $Q=c,b$ denotes the heavy quark. The dominant contributions to meson lifetime…

The LHCb collaboration has recently observed the rare hyperon decay $\Sigma^+\to p\mu^+\mu^-$. It can also measure the corresponding antihyperon channel with comparable precision and is thus in a position to extract information on $CP$…

In this paper, we study the balance functions for pions, kaons, and protons in Pb--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 2.76$ TeV using the PYTHIA 8.3 + Angantyr model. The balance function is evaluated through two-particle azimuthal…

We present a first study of the scattering process $e^+ e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ beyond next-to-leading order, aimed at providing preliminary insights required for future NNLO predictions for radiative return processes. A complete…

We present a systematic analysis of the Higgs signal strengths at 125 GeV and 95 GeV in a non-supersymmetric $U(1)_X$ model with vector-like fermions ($U(1)_X$VLFM). This model extends the SM by introducing an additional $U(1)_X$ gauge…

Recent measurements by several experimental collaborations have reported deviations from Standard Model (SM) predictions in diphoton final states, potentially hinting at the existence of intermediate scalar resonances above the electroweak…

Radiative decays of hadronic states provide an essential source of information that can facilitate deciphering their nature and properties. However, a lot of confusion concerning radiative decays of hadronic molecules and their…

Modern measurements in flavour physics rely on accurate simulations of signal and background processes, provided by a wide range of general-purpose and specialised Monte-Carlo event generators. Due to the inclusion of a larger amount of…

We develop a formalism for resumming threshold double logarithms that appear in fragmentation functions for production of heavy quarkonia. Threshold singularities appear in fixed-order calculations of quarkonium fragmentation functions in…

We reinterpret classic radiochemical solar-neutrino measurements as ``rate meters'' for additional, non-negative capture-like contributions induced by fermionic dark matter absorption. Using the chlorine and gallium production-rate data, we…

We analyse the net baryon (B) and net electric charge (Q) stopping in heavy-ion collisions using the statistical model. Focusing first on isobar collisions $\rm{Ru}+\rm{Ru}$ and $\rm{Zr}+\rm{Zr}$ at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}=200$~GeV, we show that…

Future proposed lepton collider experiments will reach unprecedented levels of accuracy. To ensure the success of these experiments, and to fully exploit their wealth of data, the precision of theory calculations must reach comparable or…

As measurements of neutrino mixing angles continue to become more precise, it is increasingly likely that in the very near future a realistic neutrino mixing model will be required to precisely reproduce their best-fit values. In this…

We show that axions can be produced from Abelian-Higgs cosmic strings due to the axion-gauge coupling. The strong magnetic field is confined in the string, and the electric field is induced around the moving string, allowing axion…
