Strong constraints on the coupling of new light particles to the Standard
Model (SM) arise from their production in the hot cores of stars, and the
effects of this on stellar cooling. For new light particles which have an
effective in-medium mixing with the photon, plasma effects can result in
parametrically different production rates to those obtained from a naive
calculation. Taking these previously-neglected contributions into account, we
make updated estimates for the stellar cooling bounds on light scalars and
vectors with a variety of SM couplings. In particular, we improve the bounds on
light (m <~ keV) scalars coupling to electrons or nucleons by up to 3 orders of
magnitude in the coupling squared, significantly revise the supernova cooling
bounds on dark photon couplings, and qualitatively change the mass dependence
of stellar bounds on new vectors. Scalars with mass <~ 2 keV that couple
through the Higgs portal are constrained to mixing angle <~ 3*10^-10, which
gives the dominant bound for scalar masses above ~ 0.2 eV.

In this exploratory study the spectrum of tetraquarks of type $c \bar c s
\bar s$ is calculated within a simple quark model with chromomagnetic
interaction and effective quark masses extracted from meson and baryon spectra.
It is tempting to see if this spectrum can accommodate the resonance Y(4140),
observed by the CDF collaboration, but not yet confirmed. The results seem to
favour the J$^{PC}$ = 1$^{++}$ sector where the coupling to the VV channel is
nearly as small as that of X(3872), when described as a $c \bar c q \bar q$
tetraquark. This suggests that Y(4140) could possibly be the strange partner of
X(3872), in a tetraquark interpretation. However the sector J$^{PC}$ = 0$^{++}$
cannot entirely be excluded. This work questions the practice of extracting
effective quark masses containing spin independent contributions, from mesons
and baryons, to be used in multiquark systems as well.

Singlet-doublet Dirac fermion dark matter from Peccei-Quinn symmetry

Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) and axions are arguably the most
compelling dark matter (DM) candidates in the literature. Here, we consider a
model where the PQ symmetry solves the strong CP problem, generates radiatively
Dirac neutrino masses, and gives origin to multicomponent dark sector.
Specifically, scotogenic Dirac neutrino masses arise at one-loop level. The
lightest fermionic mediator acts as the second DM candidate due to a residual
$Z_2$ symmetry resulting from the PQ symmetry breaking. The WIMP DM component
resembles the well-known singlet-doublet fermion DM. While the lower WIMP dark
mass region is usually excluded, our model reopens that portion of the
parameter space (for DM masses below $\lesssim 100$ GeV). Therefore, we perform
a phenomenological analysis that addresses the constraints from direct searches
of DM, neutrino oscillation data, and charged lepton flavor violating (LFV)
processes. The model can be tested in future facilities where DM annihilation
into SM particles is searched for by neutrino telescopes.

Closing the light sbottom mass window from a compilation of e+e- ->
hadron data

19 pages, 8 figures, 10 tables To be published in Physics Letters.
This new version has been reshuffled with respect to the original version to
include the suggestions from the Referees of Physics Letters. In particular,
the e+e- -> hadron data compilation and combination method are now described
in detail, to avoid references to unpublished material. A more realistic
treatment of systematic uncertainties also improved the limit slightly

at centre-of-mass energies between 20 to 209 GeV, are analysed to search for
the production of a pair of light sbottoms decaying hadronically via
R-parity-violating couplings. This analysis allows the 95%C.L. exclusion of
such a particle if its mass is below 7.5 GeV/c2. The light sbottom mass window

We construct a natural inflation model with the inflaton as a linear
combination of the fifth components of Abelian gauge fields in a
five-dimensional theory. A seesaw mechanism is introduced to provide a natural
milli-charge for matter fields under one combination of the gauge symmetries.
As a result, the effective decay constant of the inflaton field can be above
the Planck scale with all scales in the model below the Planck scale. Our model
predicts a tensor-to-scalar ratio r between 0.033 and 0.125 for sixty e-folds
and a reheating temperature of a few 10^11 GeV.

In this paper, we make a detailed study on the production of the $B_c$,
$B_c^*$, $B_c(2\,^1S_0)$, and $B^*_c(2\,^3S_1)$ mesons via the three planned
running modes ($Z$, $W$, and $H$) at the future Circular Electron-Positron
Collider (CEPC). The fragmentation-function and full nonrelativistic QCD
approaches are adopted to calculate the production cross sections. Considering
the excited states shall decay to the ground $B_c$ state (e.g. $1^1S_0$-state)
with almost $100\%$ probability, our numerical results show that up to
next-to-leading order QCD corrections, there are about $1.4\times 10^8$ $B_c$
events to be accumulated via the $Z$ mode ($\sqrt{s}=m_{_Z}$) of the CEPC, but
only about $1.6\times 10^4$ and $1.1\times 10^4$ $B_c$ events to be accumulated
via the $W$ ($\sqrt{s}=160\,{\rm GeV}$) and $H$ ($\sqrt{s}=240\,{\rm GeV}$)
modes, respectively. Since the $Z$ mode is the best mode among the three
planned modes of the CEPC for studying the production of the $B_c$, $B_c^*$,
$B_c(2\,^1S_0)$, and $B^*_c(2\,^3S_1)$ mesons and the differential
distributions of these mesons may be measured precisely at this mode, we
further present the differential cross sections $d\sigma/(dz\,d{\rm
cos}\theta)$ and $d\sigma/dz$ via the $Z$ mode of the CEPC.

The twin Higgs mechanism has recently been proposed to solve the little
hierarchy problem. We study the implementation of the twin Higgs mechanism in
left-right models. At TeV scale, heavy quark and gauge bosons appear, with rich
collider phenomenology. In addition, there are extra Higgses, some of which
couple to both the Standard Model fermion sector and the gauge sector, while
others couple to the gauge bosons only. We present the particle spectrum, and
study the general features of the collider phenomenology of this class of model
at the Large Hadron Collider.

We present results from a state-of-the-art fit of electroweak precision
observables and Higgs-boson signal-strength measurements performed using 7 and
8 TeV data from the Large Hadron Collider. Based on the HEPfit package, our
study updates the traditional fit of electroweak precision observables and
extends it to include Higgs-boson measurements. As a result we obtain
constraints on new physics corrections to both electroweak observables and
Higgs-boson couplings. We present the projected accuracy of the fit taking into

We calculate the baryon factorial cumulants assuming arbitrary short-range
correlations and the global baryon number conservation. The general factorial
cumulant generating function is derived. Various relations between factorial
cumulants subjected to baryon number conservation and the factorial cumulants
without this constraint are presented. We observe that for $n$-th factorial
cumulant, the short-range correlations of more than $n$ particles are
suppressed with the increasing number of particles. The recently published [1]
relations between the cumulants in a finite acceptance with global baryon
conservation and the grand-canonical susceptibilities are reproduced.

We report on the feasibility of the direct measurement of the top Yukawa
coupling g_t at the International Linear Collider (ILC) during its first phase
of operation with a center-of-mass energy of 500 GeV. The signal and background
models incorporate the non-relativistic QCD corrections which enhance the
production cross section near the t-tbar threshold. The e+e- -> t tbar H signal
is reconstructed in the 6-jet + lepton and the 8-jet modes. The results from
the two channels are combined. The background processes considered are e+e- ->
t bbar W- / tbar b W+ (which includes e+e- -> t tbar), e+e- -> t tbar Z, and
e+e- -> t tbar g* -> t tbar b bar. We use a realistic fast Monte-Carlo detector
simulation. Signal events are selected using event shape variables, through jet
clustering, and by identifying heavy flavor jets. Assuming a Higgs mass of 120
GeV, polarized electron and positron beams with (Pe-,Pe+) = (-0.8,+0.3), and an
integrated luminosity of 1 ab-1, we estimate that the e+e- -> t tbar H events
can be seen with a statistical significance of 5.2 sigma, corresponding to the
relative top Yukawa coupling measurement accuracy of |Delta g_t / g_t| = 10%.

We describe in some detail the present features of an automatic loop
calculation program as well as the integration techniques that go into it. The
program, called XLOOPS 1.0, allows one to calculate massive one- and two-loop
Feynman diagrams in the Standard Model including their tensor structure. UV
divergences in UV divergent integrals are explicitly computed in dimensional
regularization. One-loop integrals are calculated analytically in d \neq 4
dimensions whereas two-loop integrals are reduced to two-fold integral
representations which the program evaluates numerically. We discuss Higgs decay
at the two-loop level as a first application of the novel integration
techniques that are incorporated into XLOOPS.

Using an approach based on Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) and Heavy
Quark Effective Theory (HQET) we determine the $b$-quark fragmentation function
from electron-positron annihilation data at the $Z$-boson peak at
next-to-next-to leading order, with next-to-next-to leading log resummation of
DGLAP logarithms, and next-to-next-to-next-to leading log resummation of
endpoint logarithms. This analysis improves, by one order, the previous
extraction of the $b$-quark fragmentation function. We find that while the
addition of the next order in the calculation does not much shift the extracted
form of the fragmentation function, it does reduce theoretical errors
indicating that the expansion is converging. Using an approach based on
effective field theory allows us to systematically control theoretical errors.
While the fits of theory to data are generally good, the fits seem to be
hinting that higher order correction from HQET may be needed to explain the
$b$-quark fragmentation function at smaller values of momentum fraction.

The experiment of Krasznahorkay \textit{et al} observed the transition of a
$\rm{^{8}Be}$ excited state to its ground state and accompanied by an emission
of $e^{+}e^{-}$ pair with 17 MeV invariant mass. This 6.8$\sigma$ anomaly can
be fitted by a new light gauge boson. We consider the new particle as a $U(1)$
gauge boson, $Z'$, which plays as a portal linking dark sector and visible
sector. In particular, we study the new $U(1)$ gauge symmetry as a hidden or
non-hidden group separately. The generic hidden $U(1)$ model, referred to as
dark $Z$ model, is excluded by imposing various experimental constraints. On
the other hand, a non-hidden $Z'$ is allowed due to additional interactions
between $Z'$ and Standard Model fermions. We also study the implication of the
dark matter direct search on such a scenario. We found the search for the
DM-nucleon scattering excludes the range of DM mass above 500 MeV. However, the
DM-electron scattering for MeV-scale DM is still allowed by current constraints
for non-hidden $U(1)$ models. It is possible to test the underlying $U(1)$
portal model by the future Si and Ge detectors with $5e^{-}$ threshold charges.

Within the Standard Model Effective Field Theory framework, with operators up
to dimension 6, we perform a model-independent analysis of the
lepton-flavour-violating processes involving tau leptons. Namely, we study
hadronic tau decays and $\ell$-$\tau$ conversion in nuclei ($\ell=e,\mu$).
Based on available experimental limits, we establish constraints on the Wilson
coefficients of the operators contributing to these processes. The related
information from Belle II and foreseen future experiments can be easily
incorporated into the resulting framework.

We consider a thought experiment, in which a neutrino is produced by an
electron on a nucleus in a crystal. The wave function of the oscillating
neutrino is calculated assuming that the electron is described by a wave
packet. If the electron is relativistic and the spatial size of its wave packet
is much larger than the size of the crystal cell, then the wave packet of the
produced neutrino has essentially the same size as the wave packet of the
electron. We investigate the suppression of neutrino oscillations at large
distances caused by two mechanisms: 1) spatial separation of wave packets
corresponding to different neutrino masses; 2) neutrino energy dispersion for
given neutrino mass eigenstates. We resolve contributions of these two
mechanisms.

The STAR collaboration at the RHIC facility has recently announced the
exciting discovery of direct evidence for extremely large vorticity in the
Quark-Gluon Plasma generated in peripheral collisions, seen in the form of
global polarization of $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ hyperons. This prompts the
question: does this vorticity have any effect on other observed phenomena, such
as jet quenching? Using a simple gauge-gravity model, we suggest that such an
effect may be detectable, in data from near-future experiments, as a reduction
in the jet quenching parameter. This is predicted to be most prominent in
collisions corresponding to a narrow range of centralities around $10 \%$. The
relative reduction (compared to collisions at zero or, alternatively, large
centrality) is predicted to behave in an unexpected and characteristic manner:
the model suggests that it is independent of the impact energy.

We propose a novel implementation of spontaneous parity breaking in
supersymmetric left-right symmetric model, avoiding some of the problems
encountered in previous studies. This implementation includes a bitriplet and a
singlet, in addition to the bidoublets which extend the Higgs sector of the
Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). The supersymmetric vacua of this
theory are shown to lead generically to spontaneous violation of parity, while
preserving R parity. The model is shown to reproduce the see-saw relation for
vacuum expectation values, $v_L v_R \approx m_{EW}^2$ relating the new mass
scales $v_L$, $v_R$ to the electroweak scale $m_{EW}$, just as in the
non-supersymmetric version. The scale $v_R$ determines the mass scale of heavy
majorana neutrinos, which gets related to the obeserved neutrino masses through
type II see-saw relation.

These methods unravel the contributions to the free energy of QCD at high

Properties of bottomonia (Upsilon, chi_b and Upsilon') in the Quark-Gluon
Plasma (QGP) are investigated by assessing inelastic reaction rates and their
interplay with open-bottom states (b-quarks or B-mesons) and color-screening.
The latter leads to vanishing quarkonium binding energies at sufficiently high
temperatures (close to the dissolution point), which, in particular, renders
standard gluo-dissociation, g+Upsilon -> b + b-bar, inefficient due to a
substantial reduction in final-state phase space. This problem is overcome by
invoking a "quasifree" destruction mechanism, g,q,q-bar + Upsilon -> g,q,q-bar
+ b + b-bar, as previously introduced for charmonia. The pertinent reaction
rates are implemented into a kinetic theory framework to evaluate the time
evolution of bottomonia in heavy-ion reactions at RHIC and LHC within an
expanding fireball model. While bottom quarks are assumed to be exclusively
produced in primordial nucleon-nucleon collisions, their thermal relaxation
times in the QGP, which importantly figure into Upsilon-formation rates, are
estimated according to a recent Fokker-Planck treatment. Predictions for the
centrality dependence of Upsilon production are given for upcoming experiments
at RHIC and LHC. At both energies, Upsilon suppression turns out to be the
prevalent effect.

It is shown, with the example of the experimentally known Adler function,
that there is no matching in the intermediate region between the two asymptotic
regimes described by perturbative QCD (for the very short-distances) and by
chiral perturbation theory (for the very long-distances). We then propose to
consider an approximation of large-Nc QCD which consists in restricting the
hadronic spectrum in the channels with J^P quantum numbers 0^-, 1^-, 0^+ and
1^+ to the lightest state and treating the rest of the narrow states as a
perturbative QCD continuum; the onset of this continuum being fixed by
consistency constraints from the operator product expansion. We show how to
construct the low-energy effective Lagrangian which describes this
approximation. The number of free parameters in the resulting effective
Lagrangian can be reduced, in the chiral limit where the light quark masses are
set to zero, to just one mass scale and one dimensionless constant to all
orders in chiral perturbation theory. A comparison of the corresponding
predictions, to O(p^4) in the chiral expansion, with the phenomenologically
known couplings is also made.

In the semi-classical description of the flux-tube fragmentation process for
hadron production and hadronization in high-energy $e^+e^-$ annihilations and
$pp$ collisions, the rapidity-space-time ordering and the local conservation
laws of charge, flavor, and momentum provide a set of powerful tools that may
allow the reconstruction of the space-time dynamics of quarks and mesons in
exclusive measurements of produced hadrons, on an event-by-event basis. We
propose procedures to reconstruct the space-time dynamics from event-by-event
exclusive hadron data to exhibit explicitly the ordered chain of hadrons

In the semi-classical description of the flux-tube fragmentation process for hadron production and hadronization in high-energy $e^+e^-$ annihilations and $pp$ collisions, the rapidity-space-time ordering and the local conservation laws of charge, flavor, and momentum provide a set of powerful tools that may allow the reconstruction of the space-time dynamics of quarks and mesons in exclusive measurements of produced hadrons, on an event-by-event basis. We propose procedures to reconstruct the space-time dynamics from event-by-event exclusive hadron data to exhibit explicitly the ordered chain of hadrons produced in a flux tube fragmentation. As a supplementary tool, we infer the average space-time coordinates of the $q$-$\bar q$ pair production vertices from the $\pi^-$ rapidity distribution data obtained by the NA61/SHINE Collaboration in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 6.3 to 17.3 GeV.

The cross sections of $e^+e^- \rightarrow \omega\chi_{cJ(J=0,1,2)}$ have been
measured by BESIII. We try to search for vector charmonium(-like) states
$Y(4220)$, $Y(4360)$, $\psi(4415)$ and $Y(4660)$ in the $e^+e^- \rightarrow
\omega\chi_{cJ(J=0,1,2)}$ line shapes. The $\omega\chi_{c0}$ mainly comes from
$Y(4220)$, $\omega\chi_{c1}$ mainly comes from $Y(4660)$ and $\omega\chi_{c2}$
mainly comes from $\psi(4415)$, maybe partly comes from $Y(4360)$ or $Y(4660)$.
For the charmonium(-like) states that are not significant in the $e^+e^-
\rightarrow \omega\chi_{cJ(J=0,1,2)}$ line shape, we also give the $90\%$
confidence level upper limits on the electron partial width multiplied by
branching fraction. These results are helpful to study the nature of
charmonium(-like) states in this energy region.

We study the Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering (SIDIS) cross section
as a function of the transverse momentum, $q_T$. In order to describe it over a
wide region of $q_T$, soft gluon resummation has to be performed. Here we will
use the original Collins-Soper-Sterman (CSS) formalism; however, the same
procedure would hold within the improved Transverse Momentum Dependent (TMD)
framework. We study the matching between the region where fixed order
perturbative QCD can successfully be applied and the region where soft gluon
resummation is necessary. We find that the commonly used prescription of
matching through the so-called Y-factor cannot be applied in the SIDIS
kinematical configurations we examine. In particular, the non-perturbative
component of the resummed cross section turns out to play a crucial role and
should not be overlooked even at relatively high energies. Moreover, the
perturbative expansion of the resummed cross section in the matching region is
not as reliable as it is usually believed and its treatment requires special
attention.

We investigate the stability of the Standard-Model Electroweak (EW) vacuum in
the presence of Planck-scale suppressed operators of the type
$\phi^{2n}/M^{2n-4}_{\rm P}$ that involve the Higgs field $\phi$ and could in
principle be induced by quantum gravity effects. We show how minimal embeddings
of the Standard Model (SM) in supergravity (SUGRA) can stabilize the EW vacuum
against such operators up to very high values of the induced supersymmetry
breaking scale $M_{\cal S}$, which may well be above the onset of the so-called
SM metastability scale of $10^{11}$ GeV. In particular, we explicitly
demonstrate how discrete $R$ symmetries could be invoked to suppress the
occurrence of harmful Planck-scale operators of the form
$\phi^{2n}/M^{2n-4}_{\rm P}$ to arbitrary higher powers of $n$. We analyze
different scenarios of Planck-scale gravitational physics and derive lower
limits on the power $n$ that is required in order to protect our EW vacuum from
dangerous rapid decay. The significance of our results for theories of
low-scale quantum gravity is illustrated.

A wide variety of celestial bodies have been considered as dark matter
detectors. Which stands the best chance of delivering the discovery of dark
matter? Which is the most powerful dark matter detector? We investigate a range
of objects, including the Sun, Earth, Jupiter, Brown Dwarfs, White Dwarfs,
Neutron Stars, Stellar populations, and Exoplanets. We quantify how different
objects are optimal dark matter detectors in different regimes by
deconstructing some of the in-built assumptions in these search sensitivities,
including observation potential and particle model assumptions. We show how
different objects can be expected to deliver corroborating signals. We discuss
different search strategies, their opportunities and limitations, and the
interplay of regimes where different celestial objects are optimal dark matter
detectors.

QCD sum rules are used to compute the first few moments of the mesonic quark
momentum. Transverse, longitudinal and mixed transverse-longitudinal components
are examined. The transverse size of the pion is shown to be dictated by the
gluon condensate, even though the mass and the longitudinal distribution are
dominated by the quark condensate. The implications of our results for color

In the quark sector, Jarlskog rephasing invariant parameter $J_{CP}$ has
important implications for the CP violation as well as phase structure of the
quark mass matrices. In fact all CP violating effects in this sector are
proportional to the magnitude of the imaginary part of $J_{CP}$ . With the
observation of non-zero and large "reactor mixing angle", it is widely believed
that CP might be violated in the leptonic sector. In this context, we have
examined in detail the relationship of CP odd invariants for texture specific
mass matrices. In particular, we have calculated the predicted ranges of
Jarlskog rephasing invariant parameter and other weak basis invariants for all
the seven viable cases for texture two zero mass matrices.

We consider the possibility that the weakly interacting massive particles
produced from the evaporation of primordial black hole can explain both the
relic density of dark matter and the baryon asymmetry of the Universe, through
their annihilation which violate B and CP-symmetry. We find that the primordial
black hole with mass less than $10^7 {\rm g}$ is a good candidate as an source
of TeV dark matter with the total annihilation cross section
$\left\langle\sigma_a \upsilon\right\rangle \lesssim 10^{-7} \ {\rm GeV}^{-2}$
and the B-violating scattering cross section $\left\langle\sigma_B
\upsilon\right\rangle \lesssim 2\times 10^{-9} \ {\rm GeV^{-2}}$. This large
annihilation cross section of dark matter in this model would make it available
to search them in the indirect search for dark matter such as gamma-ray or

We study breakdown of $CPT$ symmetry which can occur in the decay process $B
\bar B \to l^\pm X^\mp f$ with $f$ being a CP eigenstate. In this process, the
standard model expectations for time ordered semi-leptonic and hadronic events,
i.e. which of the two decays takes place first, can be altered in the case that
there is a violation of the $CPT$ symmetry. To illustrate this possibility, we
identify and study several time integrated observables. We find that an
experiment with $10^{9}$ $B\bar B$ pairs, has the capability for improving the
bound on $CPT$ violating parameter or perhaps observe $CPT$ violation.

We report on the calculation of the factorisable one-loop weak-interaction
corrections to the initial and final states for three-jet observables in
electron-positron annihilations. We show that such corrections are of a few
percent at $\sqrt s=M_Z$. Hence, while their impact is not dramatic in the
context of LEP1 and SLC, where the total error on the measured value of
$\alpha_{\mathrm{S}}$ is larger, at a future Linear Collider, running at the
$Z$ mass peak (e.g., GigaZ), they ought to be taken into account in the
experimental fits, as here the uncertainty on the value of the strong coupling
constant is expected to be at the 0.1% level or even smaller. The calculation
has been performed using helicity amplitudes so that it can be applied to the
case of polarised beams.

This writeup highlights the infrared unsafety of the "midpoint" cone jet-algorithm and provides a brief overview of why this is a serious issue. It then shows how one can build a safe (seedless) cone algorithm and discusses the potential impact on measurements.

We investigate the collinear limit of the energy-energy correlator (EEC) in a
heavy-ion context. First, we revisit the leading-logarithmic (LL) resummation
of this observable in vacuum following a diagrammatic approach. We argue that
this route allows to naturally incorporate medium-induced effects into the
all-orders structure systematically. As an example, we show how the phase-space
constraints imposed by the medium on vacuum-like emissions can be incorporated
into the LL result by modifying the anomalous dimensions. On the fixed-order
side, we calculate the $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s)$ expansion of the in-medium EEC
for a $\gamma\to q\bar q$ splitting using, for the first time, the exact matrix
element. When comparing this result to previously used approximations in the
literature, we find up to $\mathcal{O}(1)$ deviations in the regime of interest
for jet quenching signatures. Energy loss effects are also quantified and
further suppress the EEC at large angles. These semi-analytic studies are
complemented with a phenomenological study using the jet quenching Monte Carlo
JetMed. Finally, we argue that the imprint of medium-induced effects in
energy-energy correlators can be enhanced by using an alternative definition
that takes as input Lund primary declusterings instead of particles.

In this paper we consider the cosmological implications of dark energy models
with a coupled system of a dynamical scalar field (the quintessence) and the
neutrinos. By detailed numerical calculations we study the various
possibilities on the evolution and the fates of the universe in this class of
models. Our results show that due to the interaction with quintessence,
neutrinos could be dominant over the quintessence in the future universe,
however would eventually decay away.

In this note we discuss a couple of technical issues relevant to solving the
Dyson-Schwinger equation for the gluon propagator in Landau gauge Yang-Mills
theory. In the deep infrared functional methods extract a one-parameter family
of solutions generically showing a massive behavior referred to as 'decoupling'
but also including the so-called 'scaling' solution with a conformal infrared
behavior as a limiting case. We emphasize that the latter cannot be ruled out
by technical arguments related to the removal of quadratic divergencies and
transversality.

We study extractions of |V_us| based on finite energy sum rule (FESR)
analyses of hadronic tau decay data. We show (i) that the ``(0,0) spectral
weight'' implementation (proposed previously in the literature as a favorable
version of this analysis) suffers from significant convergence problems, but
(ii) that alternate implementations exist which bring these problems under
control. Results based on present spectral data are shown to be in agreement
with those of other approaches, though with, at present, somewhat larger
experimental errors. Sub-1% determinations of |V_us| are also shown to be
expected from these alternate analyses once tau data from the B factories
becomes available.

The AdS/CFT correspondence between string theory in AdS space and conformal
field theories in physical space-time leads to an analytic, semi-classical
model for strongly-coupled QCD which has scale invariance and dimensional
counting at short distances and color confinement at large distances. The
AdS/CFT correspondence also provides insights into the inherently
non-perturbative aspects of QCD such as the orbital and radial spectra of
hadrons and the form of hadronic wavefunctions. In particular, we show that
there is an exact correspondence between the fifth-dimensional coordinate of
anti-de Sitter (AdS) space $z$ and a specific light-front impact variable
$\zeta$ which measures the separation of the quark and gluonic constituents
within the hadron in ordinary space-time. This connection allows one to compute
the analytic form of the frame-independent light-front wavefunctions of mesons
and baryons, the fundamental entities which encode hadron properties and which
allow the computation of decay constants, form factors and other exclusive
scattering amplitudes. Relativistic light-front equations in ordinary
space-time are found which reproduce the results obtained using the
fifth-dimensional theory. As specific examples we compute the pion coupling
constant $f_\pi$, the pion charge radius $< r_\pi^2 >$ and examine the
propagation of the electromagnetic current in AdS space, which determines the
space and time-like behavior of the pion form factor and the pole of the $\rho$
meson.

We develop the formalism for computing gravitational corrections to vacuum
decay from de Sitter space as a sub-Planckian perturbative expansion.
Non-minimal coupling to gravity can be encoded in an effective potential. The
Coleman bounce continuously deforms into the Hawking-Moss bounce, until they
coincide for a critical value of the Hubble constant. As an application, we
reconsider the decay of the electroweak Higgs vacuum during inflation. Our
vacuum decay computation reproduces and improves bounds on the maximal
inflationary Hubble scale previously computed through statistical techniques.

We consider the generation of fermion masses in an emergent model of
electroweak symmetry breaking with composite $W,Z$ gauge bosons. A universal
bulk fermion profile in a warped extra dimension is used for all fermion
flavors. Electroweak symmetry is broken at the UV (or Planck) scale where
boundary mass terms are added to generate the fermion flavor structure. This
leads to flavor-dependent nonuniversality in the gauge couplings. The effects
are suppressed for the light fermion generations but are enhanced for the top
quark where the $Zt{\bar t}$ and $Wt{\bar b}$ couplings can deviate at the
$10-20%$ level in the minimal setup. By the AdS/CFT correspondence our model
implies that electroweak symmetry is not a fundamental gauge symmetry. Instead
the Standard Model with massive fermions and $W,Z$ gauge bosons is an effective
chiral Lagrangian for some underlying confining strong dynamics at the TeV
scale, where mass is generated without a Higgs mechanism.

This paper reports the tenth-order QED contribution to the g-2 of electron
and muon from two gauge-invariant sets, Set I(g) and Set I(h). In the case of
electron g-2 Set I(g) consists of 9 Feynman diagrams which have a 4th-order
vacuum-polarization loop containing another 4th-order vacuum-polarization loop.
Set I(h) consists of 30 Feynman diagrams which have a proper 6th-order
vacuum-polarization loop containing a second-order vacuum-polarization loop.
The results of numerical integration, including mass-dependent terms containing
one closed loop of muon, are 0.028 597 (4) (alpha/pi)^5 for Set I(g) and 0.001
685 (13) (alpha/pi)^5 for Set I(h), respectively. We also report the

This paper reports the tenth-order QED contribution to the g-2 of electron and muon from two gauge-invariant sets, Set I(g) and Set I(h). In the case of electron g-2 Set I(g) consists of 9 Feynman diagrams which have a 4th-order vacuum-polarization loop containing another 4th-order vacuum-polarization loop. Set I(h) consists of 30 Feynman diagrams which have a proper 6th-order vacuum-polarization loop containing a second-order vacuum-polarization loop. The results of numerical integration, including mass-dependent terms containing one closed loop of muon, are 0.028 597 (4) (alpha/pi)^5 for Set I(g) and 0.001 685 (13) (alpha/pi)^5 for Set I(h), respectively. We also report the contributions of Set I(g) and Set I(h) to the muon anomaly. Diagrams included are those containing electron, muon, and tau-lepton loops. Their sums are 2.640 9 (4) (alpha/pi)^5 and -0.564 8 (11) (alpha/pi)^5, respectively. The sum of contributions of Sets I(g) and I(h) containing only electron loops are in fair agreement with the recently obtained asymptotic analytic results.

Exploring MSSM parameter space after the discovery of Higgs Boson with mass
125 GeV naturally demands large top-squark mixing or large trilinear coupling
parameter $A_t$ in particular, so as to avoid excessively heavy squark,
specially for the universal models like CMSSM. We study stability of
electroweak symmetry breaking vacua in possible presence of deeper charge-color
symmetry breaking minima within MSSM. Besides stable vacua, we consider
scenarios characterized by the presence of global CCB minima, with SM like
charge and color conserving vacuum, having stability over cosmologically large
lifetime {(\it long-lived states)}. We allow vacuum expectation values for both
stop as well as sbottom fields, since these belong to the third generation of
sfermions with larger Yukawa couplings that have immediate effect on the
tunneling time. Moreover, for large $\mu$ regions, radiative corrections to
Higgs boson mass from bottom-squark loop is quite significant. Regions of MSSM
parameters space become viable for large $A_t$ and large $\mu$ zones which are
generically excluded via the traditional analytical CCB constraints. For a
large value of $\tan\beta$, safe vacua associated with large values of $|\mu|$
and $|A_t|$ are predominantly long-lived and may be associated with relatively
light stop masses. We also identify low $\mu$ regions associated with
long-lived states. Both the above zones can be friendly to muon $g-2$
constraint. We also impose constraints from ${\rm Br}(B \rightarrow X_s
\gamma)$ and ${\rm Br}(B_s \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-)$. We do the analysis for a
moderate and a large $\tan\beta$. Results are compatible with dark matter
related constraints, as expected.

Two mechanisms for the $\pi_1$ ($J^{PC}=1^{-+}$) hybrid meson decay processes
$\pi_1\to\eta\pi,\eta'\pi$ are investigated. These mechanisms are applied to
$\phi\to\eta\gamma,\eta'\gamma$ and $J/\psi\to\eta\gamma,\eta'\gamma$ decays to
illustrate the validity of the decay mechanisms and to obtain independent
information on the coupling of $\eta,\eta'$ to quark and gluonic operators.
From this information, we find that
$\Gamma(\pi_1\to\eta\pi)/\Gamma(\pi_1\to\eta'\pi)$ is substantially different
in the two decay mechanisms, and hence future experimental measurements of this
ratio will provide valuable information for substantiating the hybrid nature of
these states and for determining the mechanism for these hybrid decays.

We calculate, for the longitudinally polarized virtual photon, the cross

large rapidity gap between the fragmentation system q\bar{q}g and the other
quark. This process provides the real corrections of the virtual photon impact
factor in the next-to leading order. Evidence is given for the appearance of a

Among different measured observables of top-antitop quark pairs at hadron
colliders, the forward-backward asymmetry ($A_{\text{FB}}$) measured by the CDF
and D0 collaborations has inconsistency with the Standard Model prediction. The
measured forward-backward asymmetry grows with $t\bar{t}$ invariant mass.
Several new physics models have been proposed to explain this deviation. We
consider the consistency of the parameter space of vector unparticle (in
Flavor-Conserving scenario) with the existing $t\bar{t}$ production
measurements. In particular, we look at the total cross sections at the LHC and
Tevatron, differential cross section with $t\bar{t}$ invariant mass, and the
LHC charge asymmetry to identify the regions in parameter space that can give
the desired top $A_{\text{FB}}$ observed by the Tevatron. We show that in spite
of the intrinsic tension between the LHC charge asymmetry and $A_{\text{FB}}$,
there exists a region in the unparticle parameters space where the top
$A_{\text{FB}}$ and the LHC charge asymmetry are satisfied simultaneously.
Finally, we show that the consistent region with $t\bar{t}$ observables is
consistent with the constraints coming from the dijet resonance searches.

Decays of the lightest neutralino are studied in $R_p$-violating models, with
operators $\lambda^\prime L Q D^c$ and $\lambda L L E^c$ involving
third-generation matter fields and with dominant $\lambda^\prime$ and $\lambda$
couplings. Decays with the top-quark among the particles produced are
considered, in addition to those with an almost massless final state.
Phenomenological analyses for examples of both classes of decays are presented.
No specific assumption on the composition of the lightest neutralino is made.
Our formulae can easily be generalized to study decays of heavier neutralinos.
We also discuss effects of the $\rp$ decays of the $\tilde \chi_1^0$ on the
possible faking of the $H^\pm$ signal at the LHC by the recently pointed out
$\tilde \tau \bar b t$ production through $\lambda'_{333}$ coupling.

We investigate the non-perturbative effects on the ratio $R=\sigma_L
/\sigma_T$ in lepton-nucleon deep inelastic scattering by taking into account
the lowest dimensional condensate contributions from the QCD vacuum. By
combining conventional perturbative QCD corrections and the Georgi- Politzer
target-mass effects with the non-perturbative effects from the QCD vacuum, we
give a good description of the $Q^2$ and $x$ dependences of $R$ in comparison
with the recent experimental data.

In this work there are considered two approaches to the description of $K^o,
\bar K^o$ meson transitions into $K_S (K^o_1)$ mesons at $CP$ violation in weak
interactions. The first approach uses the standard theory of oscillations and
the second approach supposes that ($K_S, K_L$) states which arise at $CP$
violation are normalized but not orthogonal state functions then there arise
interferences between these states but not oscillations. It is necessary to
remark that the available experimental data are in good agreement with the
second approach. So we came to the conclusion that oscillations do not arise at
$CP$ violation in weak interactions in the system of $K^o$ mesons. Only
interference between two - $K_S, K_L$ states takes place there.

Three-body decay of charmed baryons $\Lambda^*_c(2595)$ and
$\Lambda^*_c(2625)$ into $\Lambda_c \pi \pi$ are studied with effective
Lagrangians in which the coupling constants are extracted from the
non-relativistic quark model. We take into account sequential processes going
through $\Sigma_c (2455)$ and $\Sigma^*_c (2520)$ in intermediate states. The
total decay widths are sensitive to the coupling of $\Lambda^*_c$ with
$\Sigma_c \pi$ open channel and to $\Sigma^*_c \pi$ closed channel. We find
that $\Lambda_c^*(2595)$ and $\Lambda_c^*(2625)$ with $\lambda$ mode assignment
can explain nicely the experimental data. We also show invariant mass
distributions of $\Lambda_c^*(2595)$ and $\Lambda_c^*(2625)$ decays which are

We investigate squark and gluino pair production at LHC (CMS) with subsequent
decays into quarks, leptons and LSP in models with effective supersymmetry
where third generation of squarks is relatively light while the first two
generations of squarks are heavy. We consider the general case of nonuniversal
gaugino masses. Visibility of signal by an excess over SM background in (n \geq
2)jets + (m \geq 0)leptons + E^{miss}_T events depends rather strongly on the
relation between LSP, second neutralino, gluino and squark masses and it
decreases with the increase of LSP mass. We find that for relatively heavy
gluino it is very difficult to detect SUSY signal even for light 3^{rd}
generation squarks (m_{\tilde q_3}\le 1 TeV) if the LSP mass is closed to the
3^{rd} generation squark mass.

We review selected results from a recent in-depth study of jet shapes and jet
cross sections in ultra-relativistic reactions with heavy nuclei at the LHC
arXiv:0810.2807 [hep-ph]. We demonstrate that at the highest collider energies
these observables become feasible as a new, differential and accurate test of
the underlying QCD theory. Our approach allows for detailed simulations of the
experimental acceptance/cuts that help isolate jets emerging from a dense QGP.
We show for the first time that the pattern of stimulated gluon emission can be
correlated with a variable quenching of the jet rates and provide an
approximately model-independent approach to determining the characteristics of
the medium-induced bremsstrahlung spectrum. The connection between such cross
section attenuation and the in-medium jet shapes is elucidated.

We review selected results from a recent in-depth study of jet shapes and jet cross sections in ultra-relativistic reactions with heavy nuclei at the LHC arXiv:0810.2807 [hep-ph]. We demonstrate that at the highest collider energies these observables become feasible as a new, differential and accurate test of the underlying QCD theory. Our approach allows for detailed simulations of the experimental acceptance/cuts that help isolate jets emerging from a dense QGP. We show for the first time that the pattern of stimulated gluon emission can be correlated with a variable quenching of the jet rates and provide an approximately model-independent approach to determining the characteristics of the medium-induced bremsstrahlung spectrum. The connection between such cross section attenuation and the in-medium jet shapes is elucidated.

We present results and predictions for the nuclear modification of the
differential cross sections for inclusive light hadron and prompt photon
production in minimum bias d+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 200$ GeV and minimum
bias p+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 5$ TeV at RHIC and LHC, respectively. Our
calculations combine the leading order perturbative QCD formalism with cold
nuclear matter effects that arise from the elastic, inelastic and coherent
multiple scattering of partons in large nuclei. We find that a theoretical
approach that includes the isospin effect, Cronin effect, cold nuclear matter
energy loss and dynamical shadowing can describe the RHIC d+Au data rather
well. The LHC p+Pb predictions will soon be confronted by new experimental
results to help clarify the magnitude and origin of cold nuclear matter effects
and facilitate precision dense QCD matter tomography.

The heavy-quark contribution to the polarisation function $\Pi$ at higher
perturbative orders is presently only known approximately. We scrutinise the
accuracy of state-of-the-art approximations at three- and four-loop order. At
three loops, we present for the first time a result with arbitrary numerical
precision for general kinematics and compare to the best Pad\'e estimate. At
four loops, we calculate the fourth (inverse) moment of the non-singlet
heavy-quark vacuum polarisation in order to test the prediction for this moment
based on Pad\'e approximation.

The decay $\eta\to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ is an ideal process in which to study
flavor-conserving $C$ and $CP$ violation beyond the Standard Model. We deduce
the $C$- and $CP$-odd quark operators that contribute to $\eta\to
\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ originating from the mass-dimension 6 Standard Model effective
field theory. The corresponding hadron-level operators that generate a
non-vanishing $I=0$ amplitude at order $p^6$ in the chiral effective theory are
presented for the first time, in addition to the leading order
operatorsascribed to the $I=2$ final state. By fitting the KLOE-2 and the most
recent BESIII experimental data, we determine the coefficients of the lowest
order $I=0$ and $I=2$ amplitudes and estimate the potential new physics energy
scale. We also perform an impact study of the future $\eta\to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$
experiments.

At the end of inflation the Universe is frozen in a near zero-entropy state
with energy density in a coherent scalar field and must be "defrosted" to
produce the observed entropy and baryon number. Baryon asymmetry may be
generated by the decay of supermassive Grand Unified Theory (GUT) bosons
produced non-thermally in a preheating phase after inflation, thus solving many
drawbacks facing GUT baryogenesis in the old reheating scenario.

The massive neutrino radiative decay $\nu_i \rightarrow \nu_j \gamma$ ($i \ne
j$) is investigated within the Minimal Quark-Lepton Symmetry of the Pati-Salam
type based on the $SU(4)_V \times SU(2)_L \times G_R$ group in an external
constant crossed field ($\vec {\cal E} \perp \vec H$, ${\cal E}=H$). The matrix
element $\Delta M^{(X)}$ and the decay probability $W^{(X)}$ due to the
leptoquark $X$ contribution are analysed. The effect of significant enhancement
of the neutrino decay by the crossed field takes place. It is shown that the
leptoquark contribution to the decay probability can dominate over the
$W$-boson one in the case of strong suppression of the lepton mixing in the
framework of the SM.

The direct photon spectrum is computed to the highest currently available
precision and compared to ATLAS data from 8 TeV collisions at the LHC. The
prediction includes threshold resummation at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading
logarithmic order through the program PeTeR, matched to next-to-leading fixed
order with fragmentation effects using JetPhox and includes the resummation of
leading-logarithmic electroweak Sudakov effects. Remarkably, improved agreement
with data can be seen when each component of the calculation is added
successively. This comparison demonstrates the importance of both threshold
logs and electroweak Sudakov effects. Numerical values for the predictions are

Measuring the solar neutrino flux over gigayear timescales could provide a
new window to inform the Solar Standard Model as well as studies of the Earth's
long-term climate. We demonstrate the feasibility of measuring the
time-evolution of the $^8$B solar neutrino flux over gigayear timescales using
paleo detectors, naturally occurring minerals which record neutrino-induced
recoil tracks over geological times. We explore suitable minerals and identify
track lengths of 15--30 nm to be a practical window to detect the $^8$B solar
neutrino flux. A collection of ultra-radiopure minerals of different ages, each
some 0.1 kg by mass, can be used to probe the rise of the $^8$B solar neutrino
flux over the recent gigayear of the Sun's evolution. We also show that models
of the solar abundance problem can be distinguished based on the
time-integrated tracks induced by the $^8$B solar neutrino flux.

From the point of view of the R-parity breaking supersymmetric model, we
propose a scalar top (stop) search with longitudinally polarized electron (e-)
and positron(e+) beams which will soon be available at the upgraded HERA. Fully
polarized e- or e+ beams could produce the stop two times as much as
unpolarized beams, while they increase background events due to the process of
the standard model by about 30% in comparison with unpolarized ones. We show
that right-handed e+ beams at HERA is efficient to produce the stop in the
model. With 1 fb**(-1) of integrated luminosity we estimate reach in the
coupling constant lambda'(131) for masses of the stop in the range 160-400 GeV.
We can set a 95% confidence-level exclusion limit for lambda'(131) > 0.01-0.05
in the stop mass range of 240-280 GeV if no singal of the stop is observed. We
also point out that y(=Q**2/sx) distributions of e+ coming from the stop shows
the different behavior from those of the standard model.

We present results for different observables measured in semileptonic and
non-leptonic decays of the $B_c^-$ meson. The calculations have been done
within the framework of a nonrelativistic constituent quark model. In order to
check the sensitivity of all our results against the inter-quark interaction we
use five different quark--quark potentials. We obtain form factors, decay
widths and asymmetry parameters for semileptonic $B_c^-\to c\bar c$ and
$B_c^-\to \bar B$ decays. In the limit of infinite heavy quark mass our model
reproduces the constraints of heavy quark spin symmetry. For the actual heavy
quark masses we find nonetheless large corrections to that limiting situation
for some form factors. We also analyze exclusive non-leptonic two--meson decay
channels within the factorization approximation.

We present results for different observables measured in semileptonic and non-leptonic decays of the $B_c^-$ meson. The calculations have been done within the framework of a nonrelativistic constituent quark model. In order to check the sensitivity of all our results against the inter-quark interaction we use five different quark--quark potentials. We obtain form factors, decay widths and asymmetry parameters for semileptonic $B_c^-\to c\bar c$ and $B_c^-\to \bar B$ decays. In the limit of infinite heavy quark mass our model reproduces the constraints of heavy quark spin symmetry. For the actual heavy quark masses we find nonetheless large corrections to that limiting situation for some form factors. We also analyze exclusive non-leptonic two--meson decay channels within the factorization approximation.

A short review is presented of the spontaneous violation of chiral symmetry
in QCD vacuum. It is demonstrated, that this phenomenon is the origin of baryon
masses in QCD. The value of nucleon mass is calculated as well as the masses of
hyperons and some baryonic resonances and expressed mainly through the values
of quark condensates -- $<0\mid \bar{q} q \mid 0>, ~q=u,d,s$ -- the vacuum
expectation values (v.e.v.) of quark field. The concept of vacuum expectation
values induced by external fields is introduced. It is demonstrated that such
v.e.v. induced by static electromagnetic field results in quark condensate
magnetic susceptibility, which plays the main role in determination of baryon
magnetic moments. The magnetic moments of proton, neutron and hyperons are
calculated. The results of calculation of baryon octet $\beta$-decay constants
are also presented.

In the context of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model
the effect of a realistic wall profile is studied. It has been recently showed
that in the presence of light stops the electroweak scale phase transition can
be strong enough for baryogenesis. In the presence of non-trivial CP-violating
phases of left-handed mixing terms and Higgsino mass, the largest $n_B/s$ is
created when Higgsino and gaugino mass parameters are degenerate, $\mu = M_2$.
In the present paper we show that realistic wall profiles suppress the
generated baryon number of the universe, so that quite a stringent bound
$|\sin\phi_\mu | \gsim 0.2$ for $\mu$-phase $\phi_\mu$ can be inferred.

We present a generalization of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard
Model (NMSSM), with an explicit mu-term and a supersymmetric mass for the
singlet superfield, as a route to alleviating the little hierarchy problem of
the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). Though this model does not
address the mu-problem of the MSSM, we are able to generate masses for the
lightest neutral Higgs boson up to 140 GeV with top squarks below the TeV
scale, all couplings perturbative to the gauge unification scale, and with no
need to fine tune parameters in the scalar potential. This model, which we call
the S-MSSM, more closely resembles the MSSM phenomenologically than the NMSSM
as usually defined.

In this paper, we present a detailed next-to-leading-order (NLO) study of
$J/\psi$ angular distributions in $e^{+}e^{-} \to J/\psi+\eta_c,\chi_{cJ}$
($J=0,1,2$) within the nonrelativistic QCD factorization (NRQCD). The numerical
NLO expressions for total and differential cross sections, i.e.,
$\frac{d\sigma}{d\cos\theta}=A+B\cos^2\theta$, are both derived. With the
inclusion of the newly-calculated QCD corrections to $A$ and $B$, the
$\alpha_{\theta}(= B/A)$ parameters in $J/\psi+\chi_{c0}$ and
$J/\psi+\chi_{c1}$ are moderately enhanced, while the magnitude of
${\alpha_\theta}_{J/\psi+\chi_{c2}}$ is significantly reduced; regarding the
production of $J/\psi+\eta_c$, the $\alpha_\theta$ value remains unchanged. By
comparing with experiment, we find the predicted
${\alpha_\theta}_{J/\psi+\eta_c}$ is in good agreement with the
$\textrm{B}\scriptsize{\textrm{ELLE}}$ measurement; however,
${\alpha_\theta}_{J/\psi+\chi_{c0}}$ is still totally incompatible with the
experimental result, and this discrepancy seems to hardly be cured by proper
choices of the charm-quark mass, the renormalization scale, and the NRQCD
matrix elements.

I describe a class of iterative jet algorithms that are based on maximizing a
fixed function of the total 4-momentum rather than clustering of pairs of jets.
I describe some of the properties of the simplest examples of this class,
appropriate for jets at an $e^+e^-$ machine. These examples are sufficiently
simple that many features of the jets that they define can be determined
analytically with ease. The jets constructed in this way have some potentially
useful properties, including a strong form of infrared safety.

We introduce a new measurable quantity, $R_{\Delta \phi}$, for studies of the
rapidity and transverse momentum dependence of dijet azimuthal decorrelations
in hadron-hadron collisions. In pQCD, $R_{\Delta \phi}$ is computed as a ratio
of three-jet and dijet cross sections in which the parton distribution
functions cancel to a large extent. At the leading order, $R_{\Delta \phi}$ is
proportional to $\alpha_s$, and the transverse momentum dependence of can
therefore be exploited to determine $\alpha_s$. We compute the NLO pQCD theory
predictions and non-perturbative corrections for $R_{\Delta \phi}$ at the LHC
and the Tevatron and investigate the corresponding uncertainties. From this, we
estimate the theory uncertainties for $\alpha_s$ determinations based on
$R_{\Delta \phi}$ at both colliders. The potential of $R_{\Delta \phi}$
measurements for tuning Monte Carlo event generators is also demonstrated.

A compact approximation formula for the mass of the lightest neutral CP-even
Higgs boson, m_h, in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is
derived from the diagrammatic two-loop result for m_h up to O(alpha alpha_s).
By analytically expanding the diagrammatic result the leading logarithmic and
non-logarithmic as well as the dominant subleading contributions are obtained.
The approximation formula is valid for general mixing in the scalar top sector
and arbitrary choices of the parameters in the Higgs sector of the model. Its
quality is analyzed by comparing it with the full diagrammatic result. We find
agreement with the full result better than 2 GeV for most parts of the MSSM
parameter space.

The dispersion relations for leptons in the symmetric phase of the
electroweak model in the presence of a constant hypermagnetic field are
investigated. The one-loop fermion self-energies are calculated in the lowest
Landau level approximation and used to show that the hypermagnetic field
forbids the generation of the ''effective mass'' found as a pole of the
fermions' propagators at high temperature and zero fields. In the considered
approximation leptons behave as massless particles propagating only along the
direction of the external field. The reported results can be of interest for
the cosmological implications of primordial hypermagnetic fields.

We argue that the COMET experiment --- a dedicated experiment for the
$\mu$-$e$ conversion search --- can be a powerful facility to search for heavy
neutrinos in the mass range $1\,{\rm MeV} \lesssim M \lesssim 100\,{\rm MeV}$.
The stopped muons captured by the target nuclei or decaying in orbit are
efficiently produce heavy neutrinos via the active-sterile mixing. The produced
heavy neutrinos then decay to electron-positron pair (plus an active neutrino),
which events are clearly seen by the cylindrical drift chamber surrounding the
target. The expected sensitivity is comparable to the PS191 bound when the
COMET experiment achieves $\sim 10^{17}$ stopping muons in the target.

We analyze a simple Split Supersymmetry scenario where fermion masses come
from anomaly mediation, yielding m_s ~ 1000 TeV, m_{3/2} ~ 100 TeV, and m_f ~ 1
TeV. We consider non-thermal dark matter production in the presence of moduli,
and we find that the decay chains of moduli to LSPs and moduli to gravitinos to
LSPs generate dark matter more efficiently than perturbative freeze-out,
allowing for a light, LHC visible spectrum. These decaying moduli can also
weaken cosmological constraints on the axion decay constant. With squark masses
of order 1000 TeV, LHC gluinos will decay millimeters from their primary
vertices, resulting in a striking experimental signature, and the suppression
of Flavor Changing Neutral Currents is almost sufficient to allow arbitrary
mixing in squark mass matrices.

Recent measurement of time dependent asymmetries in $B \to \phi K$ are
indicative of a new source of CP violation. We examine squark mixing in SUSY as
this new source, and using QCD improved factorization method to describe $B \to
\phi K $ decay, find the allowed range of parameter space for $\rho$ and $\psi
$, the magnitude and phase of the down type LR(RL) squark mixing parameter
$\delta^{bs}_{LR(RL)}$. We then study $B \to \phi K^{*}$ and calculate the

Recent measurement of time dependent asymmetries in $B \to \phi K$ are indicative of a new source of CP violation. We examine squark mixing in SUSY as this new source, and using QCD improved factorization method to describe $B \to \phi K $ decay, find the allowed range of parameter space for $\rho$ and $\psi $, the magnitude and phase of the down type LR(RL) squark mixing parameter $\delta^{bs}_{LR(RL)}$. We then study $B \to \phi K^{*}$ and calculate the expected CP asymmetries in the same range of parameter space. We find that this asymmetry is in the range 15% to $20% $ for acceptable value of $B \to phi K^{*}$ branching ratio. We also predict the helicity dependent CP asymmetries in the same parameter space.

The pion mass difference generates a pronounced cusp in K --> 3 pi decays. As
has recently been pointed out by Cabibbo and Isidori, an accurate measurement
of the cusp may allow one to pin down the S-wave pi pi scattering lengths to
high precision. Here, we present and illustrate an effective field theory
framework that allows one to determine the structure of this cusp in a
straightforward manner. The strictures imposed by analyticity and unitarity are
respected automatically.

For heavy quarkonia of moderate energy, we generalize the relevant successful
theory, non-relativistic Quantum Chromodynamics (NRQCD), to include
interactions in nuclear matter. The new resulting theory, NRQCD with Glauber
gluons, provides for the first time a universal microscopic description of the
interaction of heavy quarkonia with a strongly interacting medium, consistently
applicable to a range of phases, such as cold nuclear matter, dense hadron gas,
and quark-gluon plasma. The effective field theory we present in this work is
derived from first principles and is an important step forward in understanding
the common trends in proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus data on quarkonium
suppression.

Renormalization Scheme Dependence in b->u Semileptonic Decays

After reviewing how the renormalization group equation can be used to sum
logarithmic corrections to the decay rate for the semi-leptonic process b->u
when using minimal subtraction, we consider renormalization scheme dependence
for this calculation when employing this renor- malization scheme. In this
calculation, an ambiguity resides in the running strong coupling and in the
running b quark mass. The ambiguity usually associated with the renormalization
mass scale mu is shown to cancel. It is demonstrated how in one renormalization
scheme, there are only leading-log contributions to this decay rate. Another
choice of renormalization scheme results in the decay rate being expressed in
terms of the two-loop contribution to the beta-function associated with the
strong coupling and the one-loop contribution to the anomalous mass dimension
as well as a set of renormalization scheme invariant parameters.

In the present work we study the scalar singlet as well as the Two-Higgs
Doublet model inert dark matter particles impact on compact objects, and we
provide the first constraints of the parameter space using neutron stars. The
models discussed here are characterized by two free parameters, namely the mass
$M_\chi$ of the scalar particle that plays the role of the dark matter in the
Universe, and a dimensionless coupling constant $\lambda_\chi$ that determines
the strength of the interaction of the dark matter particles with the Standard
Model Higgs boson. By considering a typical neutron star we were able to obtain
constraints on scalar dark matter depending on the DM annihilation cross
section and self-interaction coupling constant. Our findings show that i) for
heavy DM particles neutron stars can provide us with bounds better that the
current limits from direct detection searches only when the self-annihilations
of DM particles are negligible and the DM self-interaction coupling constant is
very small, while ii) for light DM particles the bounds obtained here are
comparable to limits from Higgs invisible decays unless the DM particles are
extremely light.

We fully solve the long-standing problem of operator basis construction for
fields with any masses and spins. Based on the on-shell method, we propose a
novel method to systematically construct a complete set of lowest dimensional
amplitude bases at any given dimension through semi-standard Young tableaus of
Lorentz subgroup $SU(2)_r$ and global symmetry $U(N)$ ($N$ is the number of
external legs), which can be directly mapped into physical operator bases. We
first construct a complete set of monomial bases whose dimension is not the
lowest and a redundant set of bases that always contains a complete set of
amplitude bases with the lowest dimension. Then we decompose the bases of the
redundant set into the monomial bases from low to high dimension and eliminate
the linear correlation bases. Finally, the bases with the lowest dimension can
be picked up. We also propose a matrix projection method to construct the
massive amplitude bases involving identical particles. The operator bases of a
generic massive effective field theory can be efficiently constructed by the
computer programs. A complete set of four-vector operators at dimensions up to
six is presented.

The origin of tiny neutrino mass is a long standing unsolved puzzle of the
Standard Model (SM), which allows us to consider scenarios beyond the Standard
Model (BSM) in a variety of ways. One of them being a gauge extension of the SM
may be realized as in the form of an anomaly free, general $U(1)_X$ extension
of the SM, where an $SU(2)_L$ triplet scalar with a $U(1)_X$ charge is
introduced to have Dirac Yukawa couplings with the SM lepton doublets. Once the
triplet scalar developes a Vacuum Expectation Value (VEV), light neutrinos
acquire their tiny Majorana masses. Hence, the decay modes of the triplet
scalar has a direct connection to the neutrino oscillation data for different
neutrino mass hierarchies. After the breaking of the $U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry, a
neutral $U(1)_X$ gauge boson $(Z^\prime)$ acquires mass, which interacts
differently with the left and right handed SM fermions. Satisfying the recent
LHC bounds on the triplet scalar and $Z^\prime$ boson productions, we study the
pair production of the triplet scalar at LHC, 100 TeV proton proton collider
FCC, $e^-e^+$ and $\mu^-\mu^+$ colliders followed by its decay into dominant
dilepton modes whose flavor structure depend on the neutrino mass hierarchy.
Generating the SM backgrounds, we study the possible signal significance of
four lepton final states from the triplet scalar pair production. We also
compare our results with the purely SM gauge mediated triplet scalar pair
production followed by four lepton final states, which could be significant
only in $\mu^- \mu^+$ collider.

We compute the inclusive decay rates $b \to D_s^-(D^{*-}_s) c$ including
lowest order QCD corrections on the quark legs, and compare with existing data.
Unlike the short distance QCD corrections, that are of higher order, these
corrections are of order $\alpha_s$. In the on-shell renormalization scheme and
for $\alpha_s(m_b) \cong 0.2$ we find a correction of -10% to the inclusive
rate computed using factorization. This gives a total rate $BR(b \to
D_s^-(D^{*-}_s)c) \cong 8%$ consistent within $1\sigma$ with the measured value
$BR(B \to D_s^{\pm}X) = (10.0 \pm 2.5)%$. The general formulae given here
include the case of vanishing mass for the final quark $b \to
D_s^-(D_s^{*-})u$. The radiative correction to this rate is -17%. We show in
another place that this process can be useful for the measurement of the CKM
matrix element $V_{ub}$. We also give the renormalized vertex at the
interesting values $q^2 = 0$ and $q^2 = q_{max}^2$, and compare with existing
literature.

We discuss the systematic decomposition of the dimension nine neutrinoless
double beta decay operator, focusing on mechanisms with potentially small
contributions to neutrino mass, while being accessible at the LHC. We first
provide a (d=9 tree-level) complete list of diagrams for neutrinoless double
beta decay. From this list one can easily recover all previously discussed
contributions to the neutrinoless double beta decay process, such as the
celebrated mass mechanism or "exotics", such as contributions from left-right
symmetric models, R-parity violating supersymmetry and leptoquarks. More
interestingly, however, we identify a number of new possibilities which have
not been discussed in the literature previously. Contact to earlier works based
on a general Lorentz-invariant parametrisation of the neutrinoless double beta
decay rate is made, which allows, in principle, to derive limits on all
possible contributions. We furthermore discuss possible signals at the LHC for
mediators leading to the short-range part of the amplitude with one specific
example. The study of such contributions would gain particular importance if
there were a tension between different measurements of neutrino mass such as
coming from neutrinoless double beta decay and cosmology or single beta decay.

between the extremes of the Planck mass and the electroweak scale. In this
scenario, the axion corresponds to the phase of complex bulk scalar field. We
show how to generate an intermediate energy scale by including a third brane in
the scenario. We discuss the stabilization of this brane in detail to
demonstrate that no additional fine-tunings arise.

Exclusive $C=+1$ scalar, axial-vector, and tensor quarkonium production in
high-energy electron-proton scattering requires a $C$-odd $t$-channel exchange
of a photon or a three gluon ladder. We derive the expressions for the
corresponding amplitudes. The relative phase of the photon vs. three gluon
exchange amplitudes is determined by the sign of the light-front matrix element
of the eikonal color current operator $d^{abc}J^{+a}J^{+b}J^{+c}$ at moderate
$x$, and is not affected by small-$x$ QCD evolution. Model calculations predict
constructive interference, which is particularly strong for momentum transfer
$|t|\sim 1$~GeV$^2$ where the cross section for $\chi_{cJ}$ production exceeds
that for pure photon exchange by up to a factor of 4. We find that exclusive
$\chi_{cJ}$ electroproduction at the Electron-Ion Collider should occur with
well measurable rates and measurements of these processes should allow to find

electroproduction cross section as a function of energy and provide first
estimates of the number of $\chi_{cJ}$ events per month at the Electron-Ion

Exclusive $C=+1$ scalar, axial-vector, and tensor quarkonium production in high-energy electron-proton scattering requires a $C$-odd $t$-channel exchange of a photon or a three gluon ladder. We derive the expressions for the corresponding amplitudes. The relative phase of the photon vs. three gluon exchange amplitudes is determined by the sign of the light-front matrix element of the eikonal color current operator $d^{abc}J^{+a}J^{+b}J^{+c}$ at moderate $x$, and is not affected by small-$x$ QCD evolution. Model calculations predict constructive interference, which is particularly strong for momentum transfer $|t|\sim 1$~GeV$^2$ where the cross section for $\chi_{cJ}$ production exceeds that for pure photon exchange by up to a factor of 4. We find that exclusive $\chi_{cJ}$ electroproduction at the Electron-Ion Collider should occur with well measurable rates and measurements of these processes should allow to find an evidence of the perturbative Odderon exchange. We also compute the total electroproduction cross section as a function of energy and provide first estimates of the number of $\chi_{cJ}$ events per month at the Electron-Ion Collider design luminosity.

We analyse the stability of global O(3) monopoles in the infinite cut-off (or
scalar mass) limit. We obtain the perturbation equations and prove that the
spherically symmetric solution is classically stable (or neutrally stable) to
axially symmetric square integrable or power-law decay perturbations. Moreover
we show that, in spite of the existence of a conserved topological charge, the
energy barrier between the monopole and the vacuum is finite even in the limit
where the cut-off is taken to infinity. This feature is specific of global
monopoles and independent of the details of the scalar potential.

The search for sub-GeV dark matter via scattering on electrons has ramped up
in the last few years. Like in the case of dark matter scattering on nuclei,
electron-recoil-based searches also face an ultimate background in the form of
neutrinos. The so-called ``neutrino fog'' refers to the range of open
dark-matter parameter space where the background of neutrinos can potentially
prevent a conclusive discovery claim of a dark matter signal from being made.
In this study, we map the neutrino fog for a range of electron recoil
experiments based on silicon, germanium, xenon and argon targets. In analogy to
the nuclear recoil case, we also calculate the ''edge'' to the neutrino fog,
which can be used as a visual guide to where neutrinos become an important
background -- this boundary excludes some parts of the key theory milestones
used to motivate these experiments.

Electron anti-neutrinos at the Glashow resonance (GR, at $E_{\bar \nu_e} \sim
6.3$ PeV) have an enhanced probability to be detected. With three neutrinos
detected by IceCube in the (1-2) PeV energy range at present, one would expect
that about 1 to 4 GR $\bar\nu_e$ should have been detected. The high-energy
$\sim 8.7$ PeV muon neutrino detected by IceCube may not be a GR event. If so,
we expect to detect 50 to 70 GR $\bar\nu_e$, then one would have a "missing
Glashow-resonance problem". This would suggest (1) that $p\gamma$ interaction
rather than $pp$ interaction is the dominant channel to produce the observed
IceCube high-energy neutrinos, (2) that multi-pion $p\gamma$ interactions are
suppressed, and (3) that the magnetic field and photon energy density in the
$p\gamma$ emission region is such that significant $\mu^+$ cooling occurs
before decaying, yet $\pi^+$'s essentially do not cool before decaying.

Quarks play an active role in shaping the QCD vacuum structure. Being dual
carriers of both `color' and `electric' charges they also respond to externally
applied electromagnetic fields. Thus, in principle, the vacuum of strong
interactions influences higher order QED processes such as photon-photon
scattering. We survey here the current status of the understanding of the
vacuum structure of strong interactions, and take a fresh look at its
electromagnetic properties.
