2HDM types I -- IV with a $Z_2$ symmetry, and presented on the

type II model which lacks a decoupling limit in $\tan\beta$. We obtain a lower

] | The singularities associated with QCD factorization in the collinear limit are key ingredients for high-precision theoretical predictions in particle physics. They govern the collinear behaviour of scattering amplitudes, as well as the perturbative energy evolution of parton densities (PDFs) and fragmentation functions (FFs). In this talk, we present the computation of multiple collinear and higher-order QCD splittings with massive partons. Our results are highly-relevant for the consistent introduction of mass effects in the subtraction formalism and PDF/FF evolution. |

parametrizations for the forward amplitudes and the use of dispersion relation
techniques to study the total cross section $\sigma_{tot}$ and the $\rho$
parameter. In this paper we investigate four aspects related to the application
of the model to $pp$ and $\bar{p}p$ scattering, from accelerator to cosmic-ray
energies: 1) the effect of different estimations for $\sigma_{tot}$ from
cosmic-ray experiments; 2) the differences between individual and global
(simultaneous) fits to $\sigma_{tot}$ and $\rho$; 3) the role of the
subtraction constant in the dispersion relations; 4) the effect of distinct
asymptotic inputs from different analytic models. This is done by using as a
framework the single Pomeron and the maximal Odderon parametrizations for the
total cross section. Our main conclusions are the following: 1) Despite the
small influence from different cosmic-ray estimations, the results allow us to
extract an upper bound for the soft pomeron intercept: $1 + \epsilon = 1.094$;
2) although global fits present good statistical results, in general, this
procedure constrains the rise of $\sigma_{tot}$; 3) the subtraction constant as
a free parameter affects the fit results at both low and high energies; 4)
independently of the cosmic-ray information used and the subtraction constant,
global fits with the odderon parametrization predict that, above $\sqrt s
\approx 70$ GeV, $\rho_{pp}(s)$ becomes greater than $\rho_{\bar{p}p}(s)$, and
this result is in complete agreement with all the data presently available. In
particular, we infer $\rho_{pp} = 0.134 \pm 0.005$ at $\sqrt s = 200$ GeV and
$0.151 \pm 0.007$ at 500 GeV (BNL RHIC energies).

Our main conclusions are the following: 1) Despite the small influence from different cosmic-ray estimations, the results allow us to extract an upper bound for the soft pomeron intercept: $1 + \epsilon = 1.094$; 2) although global fits present good statistical results, in general, this procedure constrains the rise of $\sigma_{tot}$; 3) the subtraction constant as a free parameter affects the fit results at both low and high energies; 4) independently of the cosmic-ray information used and the subtraction constant, global fits with the odderon parametrization predict that, above $\sqrt s \approx 70$ GeV, $\rho_{pp}(s)$ becomes greater than $\rho_{\bar{p}p}(s)$, and this result is in complete agreement with all the data presently available. In particular, we infer $\rho_{pp} = 0.134 \pm 0.005$ at $\sqrt s = 200$ GeV and $0.151 \pm 0.007$ at 500 GeV (BNL RHIC energies). |

It is shown that perpendicular vector components play an important role at Q^2 < 10 GeV^2 and that the meson-exchange diagrams are important at all energies.

effective field theory description of the Standard Model and just their first
Kaluza-Klein excitations from a warped extra dimension. The warped 5D framework
can provide solutions to both the Planck-weak and flavor hierarchies of the SM.
It is also related (via the AdS/CFT correspondence) to partial compositeness of
the SM. We focus on the dominant contributions in the two-site model to two
observables which we argue provide the strongest flavor constraints, namely,
epsilon_K and BR(b -> s gamma), where contributions in the two-site model occur
at tree and loop-level, respectively. In particular, we demonstrate that a
"tension" exists between these two observables in the sense that they have
opposite dependence on composite site Yukawa couplings, making it difficult to
decouple flavor-violating effects using this parameter. We choose the size of
the composite site QCD coupling based on the relation of the two-site model to
the 5D model (addressing the Planck-weak hierarchy), where we match the 5D QCD
coupling to the 4D coupling at the loop-level and assuming negligible
tree-level brane-localized kinetic terms. We estimate that a larger size of the
5D gauge coupling is constrained by the requirement of 5D perturbativity. We
find that \sim O(5) TeV mass scale for the new particles in the two-site model
can then be consistent with both observables. We also compare our analysis of
epsilon_K in the two-site model to that in 5D models, including both the cases

particles with a black body energy spectrum. The original calculation lead to
the conclusion that about the 90% of the black hole mass is radiated away in
the form of photons, neutrinos and light leptons, mainly electrons and muons.
With the advent of String Theory, such a scenario must be updated by including
new effects coming from the stringy nature of particles and interactions.By
taking for granted that black holes can be produced in hadronic collisions,
then their decay must take into account that: (i) we live in a D3-Brane
embedded into an higher dimensional bulk spacetime; (ii) fundamental
interactions, including gravity, are unified at TeV energy scale. Thus, the
formal description of the Hawking radiation mechanism has to be extended to the
case of more than four spacetime dimensions and include the presence of
D-branes. Furthermore, unification of fundamental interactions at an energy
scale many order of magnitude lower than the Planck energy implies that any
kind of fundamental particle, not only leptons, is expected to be emitted. A
detailed understanding of the new scenario is instrumental for optimal tuning
of detectors at future colliders, where, hopefully, this exciting new physics
will be tested. In this article we review higher dimensional black hole decay,
considering not only the emission of particles according to Hawking mechanism,

This is the first $p_T$-dependent calculation of charmonium polarization in the improved color evaporation model. We find agreement with both charmonium cross sections and polarization measurements. |

parameters for wrong sign decays of $B_d$ meson, CPT violation, etc. We also
study the reason why the T-even terms are allowed to contribute to the

of photons, a fraction of which could convert into ALPs via Primakoff process
in the reactor core. The generated flux of ALPs leaves the nuclear power plant

the key component of axion haloscope experiments. Adjacent nuclear reactor and

photophilic ALP searches with ILL and GrAHal, and also scrutinize analogous
realizations, such as the one comprising of CAST experiment at CERN and Bugey

photon-photon production in heavy-ion collisions with hadronic overlap, based
on comparisons with model calculations for spherical Au + Au collisions.
However, there is a lack of calculations for $e^+e^-$ pair production from
coherent photon-photon interactions in hadronic U + U collisions, due to the
deformity of Uranium nuclei. In this article, we present calculations for
$e^+e^-$ pair photoproduction at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 193 GeV in both spherical

investigate the effects of initial nuclear deformation on pair production. Our
numerical results show good agreement with experimental data for the 40%--60%

between spherical and deformed configurations are approximately 3\%. We also
calculate the yields of the photoproduced $e^+e^-$ pair in hadronic deformed Ru

Owing to the relative orientation of ${\bf p}$ with respect to $\delta {\bbox \Pi}$, the {\it coupling} $\delta {\bbox \Pi}\cdot {\bf {\hat p}}$ may induce the mechanism to generate the observed pulsar velocities. Topics related to the velocity distribution of pulsars are also discussed. |

Field Theory | null | 10.1142/S0217751X18420022 | null | hep-ph | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | We review the current status of the leptogenesis scenario originally proposed
by Akhmedov, Rubakov and Smirnov (ARS). It takes place in the parametric regime
where the right-handed neutrinos are at the electroweak scale or below and the
CP-violating effects are induced by the coherent superposition of different
right-handed mass eigenstates. Two main theoretical approaches to derive
quantum kinetic equations, the Hamiltonian time evolution as well as the
Closed-Time-Path technique are presented, and we discuss their relations. For
scenarios with two right-handed neutrinos, we chart the viable parameter space.
Both, a Bayesian analysis, that determines the most likely configurations for
viable leptogenesis given different variants of flat priors, and a
determination of the maximally allowed mixing between the light, mostly
left-handed, and heavy, mostly right-handed, neutrino states are discussed.
Rephasing invariants are shown to be a useful tool to classify and to
understand various distinct contributions to ARS leptogenesis that can dominate
in different parametric regimes. While these analyses are carried out for the
parametric regime where initial asymmetries are generated predominantly from
lepton-number conserving, but flavor violating effects, we also review the
contributions from lepton-number violating operators and identify the regions
of parameter space where these are relevant.

Comments are welcomed | null | null | null | hep-ph astro-ph.CO astro-ph.HE astro-ph.SR | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | In the vast expanse of our galaxy, white dwarfs (WDs) are natural sentinels,
capturing the enigmatic dark matter (DM) particles that incessantly traverse
their interiors. These celestial bodies provide a unique vantage point for
probing interactions between DM particles and their constituents-nuclei or
electrons-should such interactions exist. The captured DM particles may
accumulate, undergo mutual annihilation, or be evaporated by the WD's own
nuclei or electrons, thereby perturbing the standard cooling sequence predicted
by stellar evolution theory. This letter reports pioneering constraints on
DM-electron interactions derived from an in-depth analysis of four pulsating
WDs. By leveraging the period variation rates of their pulsation modes, we
delineate the following constraints: for a form factor $F(q) = 1$, in the DM
mass range $20 \mathrm{MeV}/c^{2} \lesssim m_{\chi} \lesssim 80
\mathrm{MeV}/c^{2}$ with a cross-section limit of $\sigma_{\chi,e} \lesssim
10^{-56} \mathrm{cm}^{2}$; for a form factor $F(q) = (\alpha m_{e})^{2}/q^{2}$,
in a the DM mass range $20\mathrm{MeV}/c^{2} \lesssim m_{\chi} \lesssim 70
\mathrm{MeV}/c^{2}$ with a limit of $\sigma_{\chi,e} \lesssim 10^{-52}
\mathrm{cm}^{2}$. These newly established constraints surpass current direct
detection experiments by over fifteen orders of magnitude, forging a path into
the uncharted territories of the DM parameter space. This work not only
advances our understanding of light dark matter-electron interactions but also
exemplifies the potential of WDs as important astrophysical laboratories for
probing the elusive nature of DM.

potential of probing a cosmological time evolution of the Higgs boson
self-coupling constant $\lambda$ and thus the Higgs boson's mass $m_H= \sqrt{ 2
\lambda} v$. The phase transition of the Standard Model could have been a first
order one if the Higgs mass was below 72 GeV at a temperature $T_\star \ge 100$
GeV. Gravitational waves could thus have been produced during the electroweak
phase transition. A discovery by LISA of a stochastic background of
gravitational waves with a characteristic frequency $k_\star \ge 10^{-5}$ Hz
could be interpreted as a sign that the Higgs boson self-coupling constant was
smaller in the past. This interpretation would be particularly tempting if the
Large Hadron Collider did not discover any physics beyond the Standard Model by
the time such waves are seen. The same mechanism could also account for
baryogenesis.
