Chiral symmetry restoration in static-light mesons: chiral restoration theorem, the quark running mass m(k) and first chiral restoration signals in the lattice QCD spectra

P. Bicudo

Chiral symmetry restoration high in the hadron spectra is expected but it remains to be confirmed both in lattice QCD computations and in experiments. Recently, a theorem was deriv…

Laser absorption via QED cascades in counter propagating laser pulses

Thomas Grismayer, Marija Vranic, Joana L. Martins +2

A model for laser light absorption in electron-positron plasmas self-consistently created via QED cascades is described. The laser energy is mainly absorbed due to hard photon emis…

Analytic self-force calculations in the post-Newtonian regime: eccentric orbits on a Schwarzschild background

Seth Hopper, Chris Kavanagh, Adrian C. Ottewill

We present a method for solving the first-order field equations in a post-Newtonian (PN) expansion. Our calculations generalize work of Bini and Damour and subsequently Kavanagh et…

Vacuum decay in an interacting multiverse

S. Robles-Pérez, A. Alonso-Serrano, C. Bastos +1

We examine a new multiverse scenario in which the component universes interact. We focus our attention to the process of "true" vacuum nucleation in the false vacuum within one sin…

Sub-jet structure as a discriminating quenching probe

Xiaoming Zhang, Liliana Apolinário, José Guilherme Milhano +1

In this work, we propose a new class of jet substructure observables which, unlike fragmentation functions, are largely insensitive to the poorly known physics of hadronization. We…
