Neutrino Flavor Model Building and the Origins of Flavor and CP Violation: A Snowmass White Paper
Yahya Almumin, Mu-Chun Chen, Murong Cheng +6
The neutrino sector offers one of the most sensitive probes of new physics beyond the Standard Model of Particle Physics. The mechanism of neutrino mass generation is still unknown…

Metaplectic Flavor Symmetries from Magnetized Tori
Yahya Almumin, Mu-Chun Chen, Victor Knapp-Perez +3
We revisit the flavor symmetries arising from compactifications on tori with magnetic background fluxes. Using Euler's Theorem, we derive closed form analytic expressions for the Y…

Fluctuating temperature and baryon chemical potential in heavy-ion collisions and the position of the critical end point in the effective QCD phase diagram
Alejandro Ayala, Saul Hernandez-Ortiz, Luis A. Hernandez +2
We use the linear sigma model with quarks to locate the critical end point in the effective QCD phase diagram accounting for fluctuations in temperature and quark chemical potentia…
