We present predictions for the suppression of B-mesons using AdS/CFT techniques assuming a strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76$ TeV for central collisions and $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=5.5$ TeV for various centrality classes. We…

The study of two-dimensional Coulomb gases lies at the interface of statistical physics and non-Hermitian random matrix theory. In this paper we give a large deviation principle (LDP) for the empirical fields obtained, under the canonical…

Measurements of multi-particle azimuthal correlations (cumulants) for charged particles in p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions are presented. They help address the question of whether there is evidence for global, flow-like, azimuthal correlations in…

Measurements of flow harmonics $v_1-v_6$ are presented in a broad range of transverse momentum and centrality for $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 2.76$ TeV Pb-Pb collisions with the ATLAS experiment. The fourier coefficients of two-particle correlations…

The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics is both incredibly successful and glaringly incomplete. Among the questions left open is the striking imbalance of matter and antimatter in the observable universe which inspires experiments to…

Parity violation experiments involving only two nucleons provide a way to study the non-leptonic, strangeness conserving part of the weak interaction in a clean measurement free of nuclear structure uncertainties. Although simple in…

We analyze the extraction of weak phases from CP violation in $B\to\pi^+\pi^-$ decays. By combining the information on mixing induced CP violation in $B\to\pi^+\pi^-$, namely $S_{\pi\pi}$, with the precision observable $\sin 2\beta$…

We give an assessment of the three approaches, undertaken by the D$\emptyset$ experiment, to probe CP violation in $B_s$ mixing without measurement of $B_s$-$\bar B_s$ oscillations or tagging: dimuon charge asymmetry $A_{SL}$, untagged…

Beauty quarks are considered as one of the best probes of the strongly interacting medium created in relativistic heavy-ion collisions because they are predominantly produced via initial hard scatterings. Measurements of B meson production…

In this work, we study possible new contributions to $\epsilon_{K}$ and $\epsilon_{B}$ in the MSSM with large supersymmetric phases. We show that, in the CMSSM, the constrains coming from the experimental measure of the $b \to s \gamma$…

The phenomenon of $B^0_q$-$\bar{B}^0_q$ mixing ($q=d,s$) provides a sensitive probe for physics beyond the Standard Model. We have a careful look at the determination of the Unitarity Triangle apex, which is needed for the Standard Model…

Exact calculations are performed on the two-dimensional strongly interacting, unpolarized, uniform Fermi gas with a zero-range attractive interaction. Two auxiliary-field approaches are employed which accelerate the sampling of…

The mass spectra and wave functions of both $1S$ and $2S$ state heavy pseudoscalar ($P$) and vector ($V$) mesons are analyzed within the light-front quark model. Important empirical constraints employed in our analysis of the mass spectra…

I report on investigations of physics beyond the Standard Model using experiments designed to investigate $b$ quark and $c$ quark interactions. Generalized searches involving loop diagrams using heavy meson mixing and CP violation…

The interaction of partially ionized plasmas with an electromagnetic field is investigated using quantum statistical methods. A general statistical expression for the current density of a plasma in an electromagnetic field is presented and…

We utilize the generation of large atomic coherence to enhance the resonant nonlinear magneto-optic effect by several orders of magnitude, thereby eliminating power broadening and improving the fundamental signal-to-noise ratio. A…

Estimates of the branching ratios for B_{d,s}->J/psi eta and B_{d,s}->eta l+l- are obtained by SU(3) relation to B_d->J/psi K and B_d->K l+l-, respectively, as functions of the eta mixing parameter, theta_P. Based on these estimates, a…

We propose to understand the mixing angles and CP-violating phases from the $\Delta(48)$ family symmetry combined with the generalized CP symmetry. A model-independent analysis is performed by scanning all the possible symmetry breaking…

Static properties of a bose-fermi mixture of trapped potassium atoms are studied in terms of coupled Gross-Pitaevskii and Thomas-Fermi equations for both repulsive and attractive bose-fermi interatomic potentials. Qualitative estimates are…

We propose a phenomenological model of lepton mixing and CP violation based on the flavor democracy of charge leptons and the mass degeneracy of neutrinos. A nearly bi-maximal flavor mixing pattern, which is favored by current data on…
