Evidence of a new particle with mass ~125 GeV decaying into a pair of tau leptons at the Large Hadron Collider spurs interest in ascertaining its spin in this channel. Here we present a comparative study between spin-0 and spin-2 nature of…

A forward dispersion calculation is implemented for the spin polarizabilities $\gamma_1, ... ,\gamma_4$ of the proton and the neutron. These polarizabilities are related to the spin structure of the nucleon at low energies and are…

We investigate giant magnons from classical rotating strings in two different backgrounds. First we generalize the solution of Hofman and Maldacena and investigate new magnon excitations of a spin chain which are dual to a string on…

A detailed comparison is made between the spin-orbit interactions in $\Lambda$ hypernuclei and ordinary nuclei. We argue that there are three major contributions to the spin-orbit interaction: 1) a short-range component involving scalar and…

We present an exploratory calculation of the $I=2$ $\pi-\pi$ scattering amplitude at threshold using Wilson fermions in the quenched approximation, including all the required contractions. We find good agreement with the predictions of…

We derive the complete set of positivity bounds for the leading-twist parton distribution functions (PDFs) of a spin-3/2 hadron for the first time. This work generalizes the Soffer bound, a fundamental constraint for spin-1/2 nucleons, to…

Based on the recently proposed Roy-Steiner equations for pion-nucleon scattering, we derive a system of coupled integral equations for the pi pi --> N-bar N and K-bar K --> N-bar N S-waves. These equations take the form of a two-channel…

In the first part of the talk, I discussed the nature of the effective theory that describes the properties of the pion-nucleon-interaction at low energies, using the static model as a starting point. In the second part, I then pointed out…

Support for interactions of spin-3/2 particles is implemented in the FeynRules and ALOHA packages and tested with the MadGraph 5 and CalcHEP event generators in the context of three phenomenological applications. In the first, we implement…

Using inelastic neutron scattering, we have observed a quasi-one-dimensional dispersive magnetic excitation in the frustrated triangular-lattice spin-2 chain oxide Ca3Co2O6. At the lowest temperature (T = 1.5 K), this magnon is…

We compute the Pauli-Jordan, Hadamard and Feynman propagators for the massive metrical perturbations on de Sitter space. They are expressed both in terms of mode sums and in invariant forms.

We generalize the method of our recent paper on the large-spin expansions of Gubser-Klebanov-Polyakov (GKP) strings to the large-spin and large-winding expansions of finite-size giant magnons and finite-size single spikes. By expressing the…

In this article we use the noncommutative (NC) kappa-Minkowski phi^4 model based on the kappa-deformed star product, ({*}_h). The action is modified by expanding up to linear order in the kappa-deformation parameter a, producing an…

We introduce a novel approach for the investigation of spin-wave excitations in itinerant ferromagnets. Our theory is based on a variational treatment of general multi-band Hubbard models which describe elements and compounds of transition…

We examine the role of the elementary isoscalar pion--nucleon scattering amplitude in the description of the processes $pp \to pp\pi^0$ and $pp\to d\pi^+$ at threshold. We argue that the presently used tree level dimension two approximation…

Recently Boulanger and Leclercq have constructed cubic four derivative $3-3-2$ vertex for interaction of spin 3 and spin 2 particles. This vertex is trivially invariant under the gauge transformations of spin 2 field, so it seemed that it…

Here we examine the propagation of relativistic fields in spacetime using the viewpoint applied to derive the Rayleigh--Sommerfeld diffraction integral in three--dimensional space. We use this theory to find the propagators for both the…

We show that processes involving pions that remain very near their mass-shell can be reliably computed in the pionless effective field theory, with the pion integrated in as a heavy field. As an application, we compute the pion-deuteron…

We treat the propagation of nucleon in nuclear matter by evaluating the ensemble average of the two-point function of nucleon currents in the framework of the chiral effective field theory. We first derive the effective parameters of…

The process of neutrino propagation through an active medium consisting of magnetic field and plasma is analysed. We consider in detail the contribution of a magnetic field B into the neutrino self-energy operator Sigma (p). The results for…
