Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering: Terrestrial and astrophysical applications

M. Abdullah, H. Abele, D. Akimov +272

Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENS) is a process in which neutrinos scatter on a nucleus which acts as a single particle. Though the total cross section is large…

The Higgs-portal for vector Dark Matter and the Effective Field Theory approach: a reappraisal

Giorgio Arcadi, Abdelhak Djouadi, Marumi Kado

We reanalyze the effective field theory approach for the scenario in which the particles that account for the dark matter (DM) in the universe are vector states that interact only…

Constraining the gauge and scalar sectors of the doublet left-right symmetric model

Véronique Bernard, Sébastien Descotes-Genon, Luiz Vale Silva

We consider a left-right symmetric extension of the Standard Model where the spontaneous breakdown of the left-right symmetry is triggered by doublets. The electroweak paramete…

Beyond brane-Higgs regularisation: clarifying the method and model

Andrei Angelescu, Ruifeng Leng, Grégory Moreau +1

The class of higher-dimensional scenarios, based on a brane-localised Higgs boson coupled to bulk fermions, can address both the flavour puzzle and gauge hierarchy problem. A key q…

Measuring the skewness dependency of Generalized Parton Distributions

Shengying Zhao, Eric Voutier

Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) have emerged over the 1990s as a powerful concept and tool to study nucleon structure. They provide nucleon tomography from the correlation…

Inflation and Leptogenesis in High-Scale Supersymmetry

Kunio Kaneta, Yann Mambrini, Keith A. Olive +1

No-scale supergravity provides a successful framework for Starobinsky-like inflation models. Two classes of models can be distinguished depending on the identification of the infla…

Multiquark-Adequate QCD Sum Rules: the Case of Flavour-Exotic Tetraquarks

Wolfgang Lucha, Dmitri Melikhov, Hagop Sazdjian

Frequently, theoretical discussions of multiquark hadron states prove to be contaminated or even dominated by contributions of conventional hadrons. For the approach to QCD bound s…

Tetraquark-adequate QCD sum rules for quark-exchange processes

Wolfgang Lucha, Dmitri Melikhov, Hagop Sazdjian

We consider quark-hadron duality relations and QCD sum rules for correlators involving exotic tetraquark currents, here specializing to the case of quark-exchange processes. We poi…

The prospect of charm quark magnetic moment determination

A. S. Fomin, S. Barsuk, A. Yu. Korchin +7

In this paper, we discuss the theoretical framework and the experimental measurements of the magnetic moment of the charm baryons. The magnetic moment is particularly inter…

Flavor techniques for LFV processes: Higgs decays in a general seesaw model

Xabier Marcano, Roberto A. Morales

Lepton flavor violating processes are optimal observables to test new physics, since they are forbidden in the Standard Model while they may be generated in new theories. The usual…

Cluster reducibility of multiquark operators

Wolfgang Lucha, Dmitri Melikhov, Hagop Sazdjian

It is shown that the multiquark gauge-invariant operators can, in general, be decomposed into combinations of products of ordinary hadronic operators, exhibiting their cluster redu…

Light-Cone Sum Rules for Form Factors and Applications to Rare Decays

Sébastien Descotes-Genon, Alexander Khodjamirian, Javier Virto

We derive a set of light-cone sum rules relating the hadronic form factors relevant for decays to the -meson light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs). We…

Simple operator formulation of the Bakamjian-Thomas approach to heavy quark current , with generalisation to HQET, and with applications to transitions of Lambda-b

Damir Becirevic, Vincent Morenas, Alain Le-Yaouanc +1

Starting from the general formulation of current matrix elements in the Bakamjian-Thomas (BT) approach to quark models, certain aspects of their heavy quark limit are exhibited in…

The electro-weak couplings of the top and bottom quarks -- global fit and future prospects

Gauthier Durieux, Adrian Irles, Víctor Miralles +4

We evaluate the implications of LHC and LEP/SLC measurements for the electro-weak couplings of the top and bottom quarks. We derive global bounds on the Wilson coefficients of ten…

Forays into the dark side of the swamp

Iason Baldes, Debtosh Chowdhury, Michel H. G. Tytgat

Motivated by the swampland conjectures, we study cosmological signatures of a quintessence potential which induces time variation in the low energy effective field theory. After de…

Prompt -pair production at the LHC: impact of loop-induced contributions and of the colour-octet mechanism

Jean-Philippe Lansberg, Hua-Sheng Shao, Nodoka Yamanaka +1

Prompt double- production at high-energy hadron colliders can be considered as a golden channel to probe double parton scatterings (DPS) --in particular to study gluon-gluon c…
