The Very Nearly Right Theory of Flavor

Nima Arkani-Hamed, Carolina Figueiredo, Lawrence J. Hall +1

A striking empirical observation about the CKM matrix is that the angles of the unitarity triangle are very close to , simple fractions of that…

Searches for GeV-Scale ALPs at RHIC

Kaori Fuyuto, Claudio Andrea Manzari, Hitoshi Murayama

We point out that ultra-peripheral Au+Au collision data collected at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, operational during 2000-2026, can be used to search for axion-like particl…

Generating the fermion mass hierarchy at the TeV scale

Nima Arkani-Hamed, Carolina Figueiredo, Lawrence J. Hall +1

We propose a class of theories to generate quark and lepton mass matrices where the scale of new physics is at the TeV scale, without inducing the large flavor and CP violating pro…

Clearing up the Strong problem

Joshua N. Benabou, Anson Hook, Claudio Andrea Manzari +2

The absence of a neutron electric dipole moment (EDM) constrains the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) theta angle to be less than one part in ten billion, posing the Strong proble…

The SN 1987A Cooling Bound on Dark Matter Absorption in Electron Targets

Claudio Andrea Manzari, Jorge Martin Camalich, Jonas Spinner +1

We present new supernova (SN 1987A) cooling bounds on sub-MeV fermionic dark matter with effective couplings to electrons. These bounds probe the parameter space relevant for direc…

Resonant Landau-Zener Conversion In Multi-Axion Systems

David I. Dunsky, Claudio Andrea Manzari, Pablo Quílez +2

Multiple axions may emerge in the low-energy effective theory of Nature. Generically, the potentials describing these axion fields are non-diagonal, leading to mass mixing between…

Two Higgs Doublet Solutions to the Strong CP Problem

Quentin Bonnefoy, Lawrence J. Hall, Claudio Andrea Manzari +1

We solve the strong CP problem in a broad class of two Higgs doublet theories that will be probed at the Large Hadron Collider and at future colliders. These theories feature CP an…

Time-delayed gamma-ray signatures of heavy axions from core-collapse supernovae

Joshua N. Benabou, Claudio Andrea Manzari, Yujin Park +3

Heavy axions that couple to both quantum electrodynamics and quantum chromodynamics with masses on the order of MeV - GeV and high-scale decay constants in excess of G…

Strong CP and Flavor in Multi-Higgs Theories

Lawrence Hall, Claudio Andrea Manzari, Bea Noether

We introduce a class of multi-Higgs doublet extensions of the Standard Model that solves the strong CP problem with profound consequences for the flavor sector. The Yukawa matrices…

Supernova axions convert to gamma-rays in magnetic fields of progenitor stars

Claudio Andrea Manzari, Yujin Park, Benjamin R. Safdi +1

It has long been established that axions could have been produced within the nascent proto-neutron-star formed following the type II supernova SN1987A, escaped the star due to thei…

On-shell recursion and holomorphic HQET for heavy quark hadronic resonances

Claudio Andrea Manzari, Dean J. Robinson

We develop a new theoretical framework for the treatment of heavy quark (HQ) resonances within heavy quark effective theory (HQET). This framework uses on-shell recursion technique…

Dark Matter in A Mirror Solution to the Strong CP Problem

Quentin Bonnefoy, Lawrence Hall, Claudio Andrea Manzari +2

We study thermal production of dark matter (DM) in a realization of the minimal models of Ref.~\cite{Bonnefoy:2023afx}, where parity is used to solve the strong CP problem by trans…

Supernova Limits on Muonic Dark Forces

Claudio Andrea Manzari, Jorge Martin Camalich, Jonas Spinner +1

Proto-neutron stars formed during core-collapse supernovae are hot and dense environments that contain a sizable population of muons. If these interact with new long-lived particle…

A Colorful Mirror Solution to the Strong CP Problem

Quentin Bonnefoy, Lawrence Hall, Claudio Andrea Manzari +1

We propose theories of a complete mirror world with parity (P) solving the strong CP problem. P exchanges the entire Standard Model (SM) with its mirror copy. We derive bounds on t…

Comprehensive Analysis of Charged Lepton Flavour Violation in the Symmetry Protected Type-I Seesaw

Andreas Crivellin, Fiona Kirk, Claudio Andrea Manzari

The type-I seesaw model is probably the most straightforward and best studied extension of the Standard Model that can account for the tiny active neutrino masses determined from n…
