Searching for BSM Experimental Signatures with Large Lagrangian Models

Ibrahim Elsharkawy, Victoria Knapp-Perez, Wahid Bhimji +1

The search for physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) is generally limited not by the supply of theory descriptions but by the lack of discriminating experimental observations. A…

CDRL: Certification-Driven Reinforcement Learning for Neutrino Flavor Model Discovery

Piyush Jha, Jake Rudolph, Victoria Knapp-Pérez +3

Many scientific discovery problems require searching combinatorial hypothesis spaces under complex domain constraints. Reinforcement learning (RL) offers a promising approach, but…

INFLAVON: CMB as cosmic tracer of Flavor physics

Mu-Chun Chen, Anish Ghoshal, V. Knapp-Perez +3

We unify one of the most widely studied frameworks to explain the hierarchical structure of the flavor sector in the Standard Model, the Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism, with cosmic inf…

Demystifying stringy miracles with eclectic flavor symmetries

V. Knapp-Perez, Xiang-Gan Liu, Hans Peter Nilles +1

Effective field theories arising from string compactifications are subject to constraints originating from the duality transformations of string theory. Interpreting these so-calle…

Towards AI-assisted Neutrino Flavor Theory Design

Jason Benjamin Baretz, Max Fieg, Vijay Ganesh +4

Particle physics theories, such as those which explain neutrino flavor mixing, arise from a vast landscape of model-building possibilities. A model's construction typically relies…

Cosmological Stasis from Field-Dependent Decay

Fei Huang, V. Knapp-Perez

Cosmological stasis is a new type of epoch in the cosmological timeline during which the cosmological abundances of different energy components -- such as vacuum energy, matter, an…

Modular flavored dark matter

Alexander Baur, Mu-Chun Chen, V. Knapp-Perez +1

Discrete flavor symmetries have been an appealing approach for explaining the observed flavor structure, which is not justified in the Standard Model (SM). Typically, these models…

Matter matters in moduli fixing and modular flavor symmetries

Victor Knapp-Perez, Xiang-Gan Liu, Hans Peter Nilles +2

Modular flavor symmetries provide us with a very compelling approach to the flavor problem. It has been argued that moduli values close to some special values like or p…

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…

Quasi-Eclectic Modular Flavor Symmetries

Mu-Chun Chen, Victor Knapp-Perez, Mario Ramos-Hamud +3

Modular flavor symmetries provide us with a new, promising approach to the flavor problem. However, in their original formulation the kinetic terms of the standard model fields do…

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…
