Resummation, ie. reorganization of perturbative series, can result in an
inconsistent perturbation theory, unless the counterterms are reorganized in an
appropriate way. In this paper two methods are presented for resummation of
counterterms: one is a direct method where the necessary counterterms are
constructed order by order; the other is a general one, based on
renormalization group arguments. We demonstrate at one hand that, in mass
independent schemes, mass resummation can be performed by gap equations
renormalized prior to the substitution of the resummed mass for its argument.
On the other hand it is shown that any (momentum-independent) form of mass and
coupling constant resummation is compatible with renormalization, and one can
explicitly construct the corresponding counterterms.

The elastic contribution to the first moment of $g_2(x,Q^2)$ is analysed
using a Drell-Yan-West type of relation and is shown to be negative. For a
qualitative estimate the one-loop contributions to the polarized DIS sum rules
in QED are studied. The behaviour of the generalized Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum
rule is sensitive to infrared regularization. With a lower threshold for the
gluon virtuality the relation of the generalized GDH sum rule to the
Burkhardt-Cottingham sum rule is studied. We conclude that the elastic part has
to be included for long range interactions but can be consistently discarded
for short range interactions.

We derive the expression for the nonperturbative coupling of a hadron to two
external currents from its underlying structure in QCD. Microscopically, the
action of each current is resolved to a coupling with dressed quarks. The
Lorentz structure of the currents is arbitrary and thereby allows to describe
the hadron's interaction with photons as well as mesons in the same framework.
We analyze the ingredients of the resulting four-point functions and explore
their potential to describe a variety of processes relevant in experiments.
Possible applications include Compton scattering, the study of two-photon
effects in hadron form factors, pion photo- and electroproduction on a nucleon,
nucleon-pion or pion-pion scattering.

We argue that a relatively light massive gluon with mass <= 1 TeV, small
purely axial couplings to light quarks and sizable vector and axial couplings
to the top quark can reproduce the large forward-backward asymmetry observed at
the Tevatron without conflicting with the t tbar and the dijet invariant mass
distributions measured at the Tevatron and the LHC. We show that realistic
Higgsless models with warped extra dimensions naturally fulfil all the
necessary ingredients to realize this scenario. While current data is unable to
discover or exclude these heavy gluons with masses 850 GeV, they should be
observed at the (7 TeV) LHC with a luminosity of the order of 300 pb^{-1}.

I review recent developments in the study of the low-x partonic content of
protons and nuclei, with a focus on the latter, as one expects possible
deviations from linear QCD evolution to be most pronounced in that case. I give
examples of recent theoretical descriptions of HERA measurements with a focus
on the role of BFKL evolution. I then concentrate on the status and assumptions
of nuclear PDFs and the possibility to use forward particle production at the
LHC as further constraint, in particular measurements of open charm and the
potential of electromagnetic probes.

Cumulant oscillations, or $H_q$ moment oscillations, appear if the KNO
multiparticle distribution decreases at large z, $z\equiv n/ <n>$, faster than
the exponential, $exp(-D z^\mu)$, with $\mu > 1$. In nucleus-nucleus
interactions this behaviour is related to the limitation in the average number
of elementary central collisions (or average number of strings centrally
produced), due to the finite number of nucleons involved. Colour deconfinement,
via percolating string fusion, will drastically decrease the fraction of
centrally produced strings and increase the cut-off parameter $\mu$: Moment
oscillations will be displaced to smaller q and the width of the KNO
distribution and forward-backward particle correlations will become smaller.

Unparticles as suggested by Georgi are identities that are not constrained by
dispersion relations but are governed by their scaling dimension, d. Their
coupling to particles can result in macroscopic interactions between matter,
that are generally an inverse nonintegral power of distance. This is totally
different from known macroscopic forces. We use the precisely measured
long-ranged spin-spin interaction of electrons to constrain unparticle
couplings to the electron. For 1<d<1.5 the axial vector unparticle coupling is
excluded; and for 1<d<1.3 the pseudoscalar and vector couplings are also ruled
out. These bounds and the ones for other ranges of d exceed or are
complementary to those obtained previously from exotic positronium decays.

We study a model with a down-type SU(2) singlet vector-like quark (VLQ) as a
minimal extension of the standard model (SM). In this model, flavor changing
neutral currents (FCNCs) arise at tree level and the unitarity of the $3\times
3$ Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix does not hold. In this paper, we
constrain the FCNC coupling from $b\rightarrow s$ transitions, especially
$B_s\rightarrow \mu^+\mu^-$ and $\bar{B}\rightarrow X_s\gamma$ processes. In
order to analyze these processes, we derive an effective Lagrangian which is
valid below the electroweak symmetry breaking scale. For this purpose, we first
integrate out the VLQ field and derive an effective theory by matching Wilson
coefficients up to one-loop level. Using the effective theory, we construct the
effective Lagrangian for $b\rightarrow s\gamma^{(*)}$. It includes the effects
of the SM quarks and the violation of the CKM unitarity. We show the
constraints on the magnitude of the FCNC coupling and its phase by taking
account of the current experimental data on $\Delta M_{B_s}$,
$\mathrm{Br}[B_s\rightarrow\mu^+\mu^-]$, $\mathrm{Br}[\bar{B}\rightarrow
X_s\gamma]$ and CKM matrix elements as well as theoretical uncertainties. We
find that the constraint from the $\mathrm{Br}[B_s\rightarrow\mu^+\mu^-]$ is
more stringent than that from the $\mathrm{Br}[\bar{B}\rightarrow X_s\gamma$].
We also obtain the bound for the mass of the VLQ and the strength of the Yukawa
couplings related to the FCNC coupling of $b\rightarrow s$ transition. Using
the CKM elements which satisfy above constraints, we show how the unitarity is
violated on the complex plane.

I present a general method for determining the massive cusp anomalous
dimension in QCD to a very high degree of accuracy using its asymptotic
behavior at small and large quark velocities. I show that the method works
exceedingly well at two and three loops where exact results are already known.
I then present a calculation of the massive cusp anomalous dimension using its
asymptotics at four loops, and I provide a detailed study of the results for
different values of the number of flavors and for separate color structures.
The method can be further extended and applied to higher numbers of loops.

We study the interplay between chiral and diquark condensates within the
framework of the Ginzburg-Landau free energy, and classify possible phase
structures of two and three-flavor massless QCD. The QCD axial anomaly acts as
an external field applied to the chiral condensate in a color superconductor
and leads to a crossover between the broken chiral symmetry and the color
superconducting phase, and, in particular, to a new critical point in the QCD
phase diagram.

We argue that generalized parton distributions (GPDs), accessible in hard
exclusive processes, carry information about the spatial distribution of forces
experienced by quarks and gluons inside hadrons. This way the measurements of
hard exclusive processes open a possibility for direct "measurements" of strong
forces in different parts of nucleons and nuclei. Also such studies open a
venue for addressing questions of the properties of the quark (gluon) matter
inside hadrons and nuclei. We give a simple example of relations between GPDs
and properties of "nuclear matter" in finite nuclei.

We argue that generalized parton distributions (GPDs), accessible in hard exclusive processes, carry information about the spatial distribution of forces experienced by quarks and gluons inside hadrons. This way the measurements of hard exclusive processes open a possibility for direct "measurements" of strong forces in different parts of nucleons and nuclei. Also such studies open a venue for addressing questions of the properties of the quark (gluon) matter inside hadrons and nuclei. We give a simple example of relations between GPDs and properties of "nuclear matter" in finite nuclei.

The recent observation of the h_c is an important test of QCD calculations
and provides constraints on models of quarkonium spectroscopy. In this
contribution I discuss some of these implications and describe methods to
search for the h_c and h_b via radiative transitions and other means.

We study the effect from a sequential fourth generation quark on
penguin-dominated two-body nonleptonic B meson decays in the next-to-leading
order perturbative QCD formalism. With an enhancement of the color-suppressed
tree amplitude and possibility of a new CP phase in the electroweak penguin, we
can account better for A_{CP}(B^0 -> K^+ pi^-)-A_{CP}(B^+ -> K^+ pi^0). Taking
|V_{t's}V_{t'b}| \sim 0.02 with phase just below 90^\circ, which are consistent
with the b -> s l^+ l^- rate and the B_s mixing parameter \Delta m_{B_s}, we
find a downward shift in the mixing-induced CP asymmetries of B^0 -> K_S pi^0
and phi K_S. The predicted behavior for B^0 -> rho^0 K_S is opposite.

We evaluate the decay branching ratios of $\chi_{c1}\to PS$, in a quark model
parametrization scheme, where $P$ and $S$ stand for pseudoscalar and scalar
meson, respectively. An interesting feature of this decay process is that the
$c\bar{c}$ annihilate via the pQCD hair-pin diagram is supposed to be dominant.
Hence, this decay process should be sensitive to the quark components of the
final-state light mesons, and would provide a great opportunity for testing the
mixing relations among the scalar mesons, i.e. $f_0(1370)$, $f_0(1500)$ and
$f_0(1710)$, by tagging the final state pseudoscalar mesons.

In the leading paradigm of modern cosmology, about 80% of our Universe's
matter content is in the form of hypothetical, as yet undetected particles.
These do not emit or absorb radiation at any observable wavelengths, and
therefore constitute the so-called Dark Matter (DM) component of the Universe.
Detecting the particles forming the Milky Way DM component is one of the main
challenges for astroparticle physics and basic science in general. One
promising way to achieve this goal is to search for rare DM-electron
interactions in low-background deep underground detectors. Key to the
interpretation of this search is the response of detectors' materials to
elementary DM-electron interactions defined in terms of electron wave
functions' overlap integrals. In this work, we compute the response of atomic
argon and xenon targets used in operating DM search experiments to general, so
far unexplored DM-electron interactions. We find that the rate at which atoms
can be ionized via DM-electron scattering can in general be expressed in terms
of four independent atomic responses, three of which we identify here for the
first time. We find our new atomic responses to be numerically important in a
variety of cases, which we identify and investigate thoroughly using effective
theory methods. We then use our atomic responses to set 90% confidence level
(C.L.) exclusion limits on the strength of a wide range of DM-electron
interactions from the null result of DM search experiments using argon and
xenon targets.

We show that in the presence of a chemical potential, black hole evaporation
generates baryon number. If the inflaton or Ricci scalar is derivatively
coupled to the B-L current, the expansion of the universe acts as a chemical
potential and splits the energy levels of particles and their anti-particles.
The asymmetric Hawking radiation of primordial black holes can thus be used to
generate a B-L asymmetry. If dark matter is produced by the same mechanism, the
coincidence between the mass density of visible and dark matter can be
naturally explained.

Simple transformation formulas between fermion matrices and observables, and

with one quark matrix diagonal and the other with vanishing elements 1-1, 1-3
and 3-1, and with only the element 2-2 complex. When we choose $M_u$ diagonal,
then $M_d$ shows intriguing numerical properties which suggest a four parameter
description of it, which implies $V_{us}\simeq \sqrt{m_d/m_s}$, $V_{cb}\simeq
(3/\sqrt{5})(m_s/m_b)$ and $V_{ub}\simeq (1/\sqrt{5})(\sqrt{m_d m_s}/m_b)$. Few

We analyze how the CFL states in dense matter work in the direction of
enhancing the parameter space for absolutely stable phases (strange matter). We
find that the "CFL strange matter" phase can be the true ground state of
hadronic matter for a much wider range of the parameters of the model (the gap
of the QCD Cooper pairs $\Delta$, the strange quark mass $m_s$ and the Bag
Constant $B$) than the state without any pairing, and derive a full equation of
state and an accurate analytic approximation to the lowest order in $\Delta$
and $m_{s}$ which may be directly used for applications. The effects of pairing
on the equation of state are found to be small (as previously expected) but not
negligible and may be relevant for astrophysics.

Most recombination-style jet algorithms cluster soft gluons in a complex way.
This leads to correlations in the soft gluon phase space and introduces
logarithmic corrections to jet cross sections. The leading Abelian clustering
logarithms occur at least at next-to leading logarithm (NLL) in the exponent of
the distribution, and we show that new clustering effects contributing at NLL
likely arise at each order. Therefore we find that it is unlikely that
clustering logs can be resummed to NLL. Clustering logarithms make the anti-kT
algorithm theoretically preferred, for which they are power suppressed. They
can arise in Abelian and non-Abelian terms, and we calculate the Abelian
clustering logarithms at two loops for the jet mass distribution using the
Cambridge/Aachen and kT algorithms, including jet radius dependence, which
extends previous results. We find that previously identified logarithms from
clustering effects can be naturally thought of as a class of non-global
logarithms (NGLs), which have traditionally been tied to non-Abelian
correlations in soft gluon emission.

The prediction of backgrounds to new physics signals in topologies with large
missing transverse energy and jets is important to new physics searches at the
LHC. Following a CMS study, we investigate theoretical issues in using
measurements of gamma + 2-jet production to predict the irreducible background
to searches for missing energy plus two jets that originates from Z + 2-jet
production where the Z boson decays to neutrinos. We compute ratios of gamma +
2-jet to Z + 2-jet production cross sections and kinematic distributions at
next-to-leading order in alpha_s, as well as using a parton shower matched to
leading-order matrix elements. We find that the ratios obtained in the two
approximations are quite similar, making gamma + 2-jet production a
theoretically reliable estimator for the missing energy plus two jets
background. We employ a Frixione-style photon isolation, but we also show that
for isolated prompt photon production at high transverse momentum the
difference between this criterion and the standard cone isolation used by CMS
is small.

In this paper we examine gauge coupling unification of the the non-SUSY
SO(10) grand unified theory proposed by Babu and Mohapatra at the two loop
level. This theory breaks down to the standard model in a single step and has
the distinguishing feature of TeV non-standard model scalars. This leads to a
plethora of interesting new physics at the TeV scale and the discovery of new
particles at the LHC. This model gives rise to testable proton decay,
neutron-antineutron oscillations, provides a mechanism for baryogenesis, and
contains potential dark matter candidates. In this paper, we compute the two
loop beta function and show that this model unifies to two loop order around
$10^{15}$ GeV. We then compute the proton lifetime, taking into account
threshold effects and show that these effects place it above the Super
Kamiokande limit.

This model gives rise to testable proton decay, neutron-antineutron oscillations, provides a mechanism for baryogenesis, and contains potential dark matter candidates. In this paper, we compute the two loop beta function and show that this model unifies to two loop order around $10^{15}$ GeV. We then compute the proton lifetime, taking into account threshold effects and show that these effects place it above the Super Kamiokande limit.

In this work we revisit the zero textures in low energy Majorana neutrino
mass matrix when the active neutrino sector is extended by a light sterile
neutrino in the eV scale i.e., the 3+1 scheme. In 3+1 scenario, the low energy
neutrino mass matrix ($m_\nu$) has ten independent elements. Thus in principle
one can have minimum one-zero texture to maximum ten-zero texture. We summarize
the previous results of one, two, three and four-zero textures which already
exist in the literature and present our new results on five-zero textures. In
our analysis we find that among six possible five-zero textures, only one is
allowed by the present data. We discuss possible theoretical model which can
explain the origin of the allowed five-zero texture and discuss other possible
implications of such a scenario. Our results also concludes that in 3+1 scheme,
one can not have more than five-zeros in $m_\nu$.

I consider selected (most important according to my own choice) unsolved
problems in particle theory, both those related to extensions of the Standard
Model (neutrino oscillations, which probably do not fit the usual
three-generation scheme; indications in favour of new physics from
astrophysical observations; electroweak symmetry breaking and hierarchy of
parameters) and those which appear in the Standard Model (description of strong
interactions at low and intermediate energies).

We investigate the decay of $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda\nu\bar{\nu}$ with the
polarized baryons of $\Lambda_b$ and $\Lambda$. With the most general hadronic
form factors, we first study the decay branching ratio and then derive the
longitudinal, normal and transverse polarizations of $\Lambda$ in terms of the
spin unit vectors of $\Lambda_b$ and $\Lambda $ and the momentum of $\Lambda $.
A polarization of $\Lambda_b$ is also discussed.

In general, an effective low-energy Lagrangian model of composite electroweak
symmetry breaking contains soliton solutions that may be identified with
technibaryons. We recall how the masses of such states may be related to the
coefficients of fourth-order terms in the effective Lagrangian, and review the
qualitative success of this approach for baryons in QCD. We then show how the
current theoretical and phenomenological constraints on the corresponding
fourth-order coefficients in the electroweak theory could be used to estimate
qualitative lower and upper bounds on the lightest electroweak baryon mass. We
also discuss how the sensitivity of the LHC experiments could enable these
bounds to be improved.

We study prospects for the observations of high-energy cosmic tau neutrinos
(E \geq 10^6 GeV) originating from proton acceleration in the cores of active
galactic nuclei. We consider the possibility that vacuum flavor neutrino
oscillations induce a tau to muon neutrino flux ratio greatly exceeding the
rather small value expected from intrinsic production. The criterias and event
rates for under water/ice light Cerenkov neutrino telescopes are given by
considering the possible detection of downgoing high-energy cosmic tau
neutrinos through characteristic double shower events.

In Randall-Sundrum models, the Kaluza-Klein (KK) excitations of the gluon,
g_{KK} have enhanced couplings to the right-handed quarks. In the absence of a
gg g_{KK} coupling in these models, the single production of a g_{KK} from an
initial gg state is not possible. The search for other production mechanisms at
the LHC, therefore, becomes important. We suggest that the associated
production of a g_{KK} with a t t(bar) pair is such a mechanism. Our study
shows that through this process the LHC can probe KK gluon masses in the range
of 2.8 -- 2.9 TeV.

Recent experimental pion polarizability data are reviewed and analyzed. Data
on the radiative \pi^+ meson photoproduction on the proton at MAMI has been
used to determine the difference of the electric and magnetic dipole
polarizabilities of the charged pion. Fits of the experimental data to the
total cross sections of the processes \gamma\gamma->\pi^0\pi^0 and
\gamma\gamma->\pi^\pm\pi^\pm in the energy region from threshold to 2250 MeV
and 2500 MeV, respectively, have been carried out using dispersion relations
with subtractions for the invariant helicity amplitudes, where the dipole and
the quadrupole polarizabilities of \pi^0 and \pi^\pm are free parameters. These
fits have allowed ones to find the sum and the difference of the electric and
magnetic dipole and quadrupole polarizabilities of the pions. These data are
compared with the dispersion sum rules and ChPT calculations. The value of the
difference of the charged pion dipole polarizabilities found from the fit is in
a good agreement with the results obtained at MAMI (2005), in Serpukhov (1983)
and Lebedev Physical Institute (1984). However, all these values deviate from
the recent calculations in the framework of ChPT.

In the framework of a relativistic quark model constructed in an infinite
momentum frame, corrections of the order of $v^{2}/c^{2}$ are obtained in the
formulas which express amplitudes of the transitions $\psi(\psi') \to
\eta_{_{c}}(\eta'_{_{c}})\gamma$, $\chi_{_{J}} \to \psi\gamma$, $\psi' \to
\chi_{_{J}}\gamma$, $h_{_{c}} \to \eta_{_{c}}\gamma$, $\eta'_{_{c}} \to
h_{_{c}}\gamma$ through overlap integrals $\int \phi^{*}_{f}(q) \phi_{i}(q)
d{\bf q}$, $\int \phi^{*}_{f}(r)r \phi_{i}(r) d{\bf r}$. These corrections lead
to a considerable suppression of $\Gamma(\psi\to\eta_{_{c}}\gamma)$, however,
they are insufficient to remove the existing disagreement of quark model
predictions with experiment. Taking into account the relativistic corrections,
the ratios of overlap integrals for $\chi_{_{0}} \to \psi\gamma, \chi_{_{2}}
\to \psi\gamma$ and $\psi' \to \chi_{_{0}}\gamma, \psi' \to \chi_{_{2}}\gamma$
transitions are extracted from experiment; the obtained results are compared

Studying potential BSM effects at the precision frontier requires accurate
transfer of information from low-energy measurements to high-energy BSM models.
We propose to use normalising flows to construct likelihood functions that
achieve this transfer. Likelihood functions constructed in this way provide the
means to generate additional samples and admit a ``trivial'' goodness-of-fit
test in form of a $\chi^2$ test statistic. Here, we study a particular form of
normalising flow, apply it to a multi-modal and non-Gaussian example, and
quantify the accuracy of the likelihood function and its test statistic.

We calculate the decay constants of light and heavy-light pseudoscalar and
vector mesons with improved soft-wall holographic wavefuntions, which take into
account the effects of both quark masses and dynamical spins. We find that the
predicted decay constants, especially for the ratio $f_V/f_P$, based on
light-front holographic QCD, can be significantly improved, once the dynamical
spin effects are taken into account by introducing the helicity-dependent
wavefunctions. We also perform detailed $\chi^2$ analyses for the holographic
parameters ({\it i.e.} the mass-scale parameter $\kappa$ and the quark masses),
by confronting our predictions with the data for the charged-meson decay
constants and the meson spectra. The fitted values for these parameters are
generally in agreement with those obtained by fitting to the Regge
trajectories. At the same time, most of our results for the decay constants and
their ratios agree with the data as well as the predictions based on lattice
QCD and QCD sum rule approaches, with only a few exceptions observed.

We calculate the decay constants of light and heavy-light pseudoscalar and vector mesons with improved soft-wall holographic wavefuntions, which take into account the effects of both quark masses and dynamical spins. We find that the predicted decay constants, especially for the ratio $f_V/f_P$, based on light-front holographic QCD, can be significantly improved, once the dynamical spin effects are taken into account by introducing the helicity-dependent wavefunctions. We also perform detailed $\chi^2$ analyses for the holographic parameters ({\it i.e.} the mass-scale parameter $\kappa$ and the quark masses), by confronting our predictions with the data for the charged-meson decay constants and the meson spectra. The fitted values for these parameters are generally in agreement with those obtained by fitting to the Regge trajectories. At the same time, most of our results for the decay constants and their ratios agree with the data as well as the predictions based on lattice QCD and QCD sum rule approaches, with only a few exceptions observed.

In the framework of quantum gravity propagating in large extra dimensions,
the effects of virtual Kaluza-Klein gravitons on the imaginary part of the
amplitude of the process e+ e- --> f f-bar are analyzed at the Z-pole. Notably,
the interference of the almost-continuous spectrum of the KK gravitons with the
standard model resonant amplitude is finite and predictable in terms of the
fundamental D-dimensional Plank scale M_D. We find that, while the
virtual-gravitons effect on total cross sections vanishes at tree-level, both
angular and polarization asymmetries are modified by terms whose relative
effect is at most of order 10^(-4) for M_D > 1 TeV. Possible shifts in the M_Z,
due to changes in the Breit-Wigner line shape are also discussed.

We estimate strong coupling constant between the negative parity nucleons
with $\pi$ meson within the light cone QCD sum rules. A method for eliminating
the unwanted contributions coming from the nucleon--nucleon and
nucleon--negative parity nucleon transition is presented. It is observed that
the value strong coupling constant of the negative parity nucleon $N^\ast
N^\ast \pi$ transition is considerably different from the one predicted by the
3--point QCD sum rules, but is quite close to the coupling constant of the
positive parity $N N \pi$ transition.

CPT violation has an impressive limit in the neutral kaon system |m(K^0) -
m(\bar{K}^0)| < 10^{-18} m_K = 0.50 \times 10^{-18} GeV. However, if viewed as
a constraint on the mass-squared, the bound appears weak, |m^2(K^0) -
m^2(\bar{K}^0)| < 0.25 eV^2. We point out that neutrino oscillation offers
better limits on CPT violation in this case. The comparison of solar and rector
neutrino results puts the best limit on CPT violation by far, |\Delta m^2_\nu -
\Delta m^2_{\bar{\nu}}| < 1.3 \times 10^{-3} eV^2 (90% CL).

With the advent of the ability to create and study antihydrogen, we think it
is appropriate to consider the possibility that antiphotons might not be
identical to photons. First of all, we will look at the experimental evidence
concerning multiple neutral pions and multiple photons. Because of its internal
structure, the neutral kaon is not identical to its antiparticle. We will
consider internal structures for the neutral pion and photon for which the
antiparticle differs from the particle. Interestingly, the antiphoton thus
created from neutrinos does not interact with electrons because its neutrinos
have the wrong helicity.

We discuss the role of lightest neutrino mass (m_0) in the neutrino mass
matrix, defined in a flavor basis, through a bottom-up approach using the
current neutrino oscillation data. We find that if m_0 < 10^{-3} eV, then the
deviation \delta M_\nu in the neutrino mass matrix from a tree-level, say
tribimaximal neutrino mass matrix, does not depend on m_0. As a result \delta
M_\nu's are exactly predicted in terms of the experimentally determined
quantities such as solar and atmospheric mass squared differences and the
mixing angles. On the other hand for m_0 \gsim 10^{-3} eV, \delta M_\nu
strongly depends on m_0 and hence can not be determined within the knowledge of
oscillation parameters alone. In this limit, we provide an exponential
parameterization for \delta M_\nu for all values of m_0 such that it can
factorize the m_0 dependency of \delta M_\nu from rest of the oscillation
parameters. This helps us in finding \delta M_\nu as a function of the solar
and atmospheric mass squared differences and the mixing angles for all values
of m_0. We use this information to build up a model of neutrino masses and
mixings in a top-down scenario which can predict large \theta_{13}
perturbatively.

We suggest the existence of a fundamental connection between baryonic and
dark matter. This is motivated by both the stability of these two types of
matter as well as the observed similarity of their present-day densities. A
unified genesis of baryonic and dark matter is natural in models in which the
baryon number is promoted to a spontaneously broken local gauge symmetry. This
is illustrated in a specific class of SUSY models using the Affleck-Dine
mechanism. The dark matter candidate in these scenarios is charged under the
baryon gauge symmetry and must have a mass around the GeV scale to give the
correct present-day abundance. We discuss constraints from B-factories, LEP,
mono-jet searches at the Tevatron, and dark matter direct detection
experiments. A baryonic dark force is shown to be consistent with all data for
mediators as light as the GeV scale.

A condensate, $\overline{t}t$, arising from $O(TeV)$ scale ``topcolor,'' in
addition to technicolor (and ETC) may naturally explain the gauge hierarchy,
the large top quark mass, and contains a rich system of testable consequences.
A triplet of strongly coupled pseudo--Nambu--Goldstone bosons, ``top-pions,''
near the top mass scale is a generic prediction of the models. A new class of
technicolor schemes and associated phenomenology is suggested in this approach.

If the fundamental Planck scale is about a TeV and the cosmic neutrino flux
is at the Waxman-Bahcall level, quantum black holes are created daily in the
Antarctic ice-cap. We re-examine the prospects for observing such black holes
with the IceCube neutrino-detection experiment. To this end, we first revise
the black hole production rate by incorporating the effects of inelasticty,
i.e., the energy radiated in gravitational waves by the multipole moments of
the incoming shock waves. After that we study in detail the process of Hawking
evaporation accounting for the black hole's large momentum in the lab system.
We derive the energy spectrum of the Planckian cloud which is swept forward
with a large, O (10^6), Lorentz factor. (It is noteworthy that the boosted
thermal spectrum is also relevant for the study of near-extremal supersymmetric
black holes, which could be copiously produced at the LHC.) In the
semiclassical regime, we estimate the average energy of the boosted particles
to be less than 20% the energy of the neutrino-progenitor. Armed with such a
constraint, we determine the discovery reach of IceCube by tagging on "soft"
(relative to what one would expect from charged current standard model
processes) muons escaping the electromagnetic shower bubble produced by the
black hole's light descendants. The statistically significant 5-sigma excess
extends up to a quantum gravity scale ~ 1.3 TeV.

Fully-heavy tetraquark states, i.e. $cc\bar{c}\bar{c}$, $bb\bar{b}\bar{b}$,
$bb\bar{c}\bar{c}$ ($cc\bar{b}\bar{b}$), $cb\bar{c}\bar{c}$,
$cb\bar{b}\bar{b}$, and $cb\bar{c}\bar{b}$, are systematically investigated by
means of a non-relativistic quark model based on lattice-QCD studies of the
two-body $Q\bar{Q}$ interaction, which exhibits a spin-independent Cornell
potential along with a spin-spin term. The four-body problem is solved using
the Gaussian expansion method; additionally, the so-called complex scaling
technique is employed so that bound, resonance, and scattering states can be
treated on the same footing. Moreover, a complete set of four-body
configurations, including meson-meson, diquark-antidiquark, and K-type
configurations, as well as their couplings, are considered for spin-parity
quantum numbers $J^{P(C)}=0^{+(+)}$, $1^{+(\pm)}$, and $2^{+(+)}$ in the
$S$-wave channel. Several narrow resonances, with two-meson strong decay widths
less than 30 MeV, are found in all of the tetraquark systems studied.
Particularly, the fully-charm resonances recently reported by the LHCb
Collaboration, at the energy range between 6.2 and 7.2 GeV in the di-$J/\psi$
invariant spectrum, can be well identified in our calculation. Focusing on the
fully-bottom tetraquark spectrum, resonances with masses between 18.9 and 19.6
GeV are found. For the remaining charm-bottom cases, the masses are obtained
within a energy region from 9.8 GeV to 16.4 GeV. All these predicted resonances
can be further examined in future experiments.

We point out a conceptual analogy between the physics of extra spatial
dimensions and the physics of carbon nanotubes which arises for principle
reasons, although the corresponding energy scales are at least ten orders of
magnitude apart. For low energies, one can apply the Kaluza-Klein description
to both types of systems, leading to two completely different but consistent
interpretations of the underlying physics. In particular, we discuss in detail
the Kaluza-Klein description of armchair and zig-zag carbon nanotubes.
Furthermore, we describe how certain experimental results for carbon nanotubes
could be re-interpreted in terms of the Kaluza-Klein description. Finally, we
present ideas for new measurements that could allow to probe concepts of models
with extra spatial dimensions in table-top experiments, providing further links
between condensed matter and particle physics.

We study the \mu \to e \gamma decay in the Z_3-invariant next-to-minimal
supersymmetric (SUSY) Standard Model (NMSSM) with superheavy right-handed
neutrinos. We assume that the soft SUSY breaking parameters are generated at
the GUT scale, not universally as in the minimal supergravity scenario but in
such a way that those soft parameters which are specific to the NMSSM can
differ from the soft parameters which involve only the MSSM fields while
keeping the universality at the GUT scale within the soft parameters for the
MSSM and right-handed neutrino fields. We call this type of boundary conditions
"semi-constrained". In this model, the lepton-flavor-violating off-diagonal
elements of the slepton mass matrix are induced by radiative corrections from
the neutrino Yukawa couplings, just like as in the MSSM extended with the
right-handed neutrinos, and these off-diagonal elements induce sizable rates of
\mu \to e \gamma depending on the parameter space. Since this model has more
free parameters than the MSSM, the parameter region favored from the Higgs
boson mass can slightly differ from that in the MSSM. We show that there is a
parameter region in which the \mu \to e \gamma decay can be observable in the
near future even if the SUSY mass scale is about 4 TeV.

We study the \mu \to e \gamma decay in the Z_3-invariant next-to-minimal supersymmetric (SUSY) Standard Model (NMSSM) with superheavy right-handed neutrinos. We assume that the soft SUSY breaking parameters are generated at the GUT scale, not universally as in the minimal supergravity scenario but in such a way that those soft parameters which are specific to the NMSSM can differ from the soft parameters which involve only the MSSM fields while keeping the universality at the GUT scale within the soft parameters for the MSSM and right-handed neutrino fields. We call this type of boundary conditions "semi-constrained". In this model, the lepton-flavor-violating off-diagonal elements of the slepton mass matrix are induced by radiative corrections from the neutrino Yukawa couplings, just like as in the MSSM extended with the right-handed neutrinos, and these off-diagonal elements induce sizable rates of \mu \to e \gamma depending on the parameter space.

structure of hadrons. A Monte Carlo over experimental data is performed to
correctly reproduce data errors and correlations. A neural network is then
trained on each Monte Carlo replica via a genetic algorithm. Results on the
proton and deuteron structure functions, and on the nonsinglet parton

We compute the QGP suppression of Upsilon(1s), Upsilon(2s), Upsilon(3s),
chi_b1, and chi_b2 states in sqrt(s_NN)=2.76 TeV Pb-Pb collisions. Using the
suppression of each of these states, we estimate the inclusive R_AA for the
Upsilon(1s) and Upsilon(2s) states as a function of N_part, y, and p_T
including the effect of excited state feed down. We find that our model
provides a reasonable description of preliminary CMS results for the N_part-,
y-, and p_T-dependence of R_AA for both the Upsilon(1s) and Upsilon(2s).
Comparing to our previous model predictions, we find a flatter rapidity
dependence, thereby reducing some of the tension between our model and ALICE
forward-rapidity results for Upsilon(1s) suppression.

Considering the cascade decay $D\to c C \to c b B \to c b a A$ in which
$D,C,B,A$ are massive particles and $c,b,a$ are massless particles, we
determine for the first time the shape of the distribution of the invariant
mass of the three massless particles $m_{abc}$ for the sub-set of decays in
which the invariant mass $m_{ab}$ of the last two particles in the chain is
(optionally) constrained to lie inside an arbitrary interval, $m_{ab} \in [
m_{ab}^\text{cut min}, m_{ab}^\text{cut max}]$. An example of an experimentally
important distribution of this kind is the ``$m_{qll}$ threshold'' -- which is
the distribution of the combined invariant mass of the visible standard model
particles radiated from the hypothesised decay of a squark to the lightest
neutralino via successive two body decay,: $\squark \to q \ntlinoTwo \to q l
\slepton \to q l l \ntlinoOne $, in which the experimenter requires
additionally that $m_{ll}$ be greater than ${m_{ll}^{max}}/\sqrt{2}$. The
location of the ``foot'' of this distribution is often used to constrain
sparticle mass scales. The new results presented here permit the location of
this foot to be better understood as the shape of the distribution is derived.
The effects of varying the position of the $m_{ll}$ cut(s) may now be seen more
easily.

We find an exact analytic solution for the time evolution of a three Dirac
neutrino system adiabatically oscillating in matter, constructing explicitly
the relevant $3\times 3$ mixing matrix in matter. Using this result we
investigate the solar neutrino data in a scenario where the neutrino masses are
such that $m_1\alt m_2\ll m_3$, taking into account several phenomenological
constraints on neutrino mixing angles and masses. A solution of the solar
neutrino problem for large values of the parameter $\delta m^2=m_2^2-m_1^2$
which are not usually associated with a resonance is found. This is an

Isospin symmetry is the most precise flavor symmetry. In this work, we
propose an approach to generate isospin sum rules for heavy hadron decays
without the Wigner-Eckhart invariants. The effective Hamiltonian of heavy quark
weak decay is fully invariant under a series of isospin lowering operators
$I_-^n$ and then the isospin sum rules can be generated through several master
formulas. It provides a systematic way to study the isospin symmetry of $c$-
and $b$-hadron weak decays. The theoretical framework of this approach is
presented in detail with the nonleptonic decays of $D$ and $B$ mesons as
examples. In addition, the $V$-/$U$-spin sum rules are derived in a similar
algorithm by replacing $I_-^n$ with $V_-^n$/$U_-^n$.

In this paper we study the presence of generalized blind spots, i.e. regions
of the parameter space where the spin-independent cross section for dark matter
direct detection is suppressed, in the context of a generic 2HDM and a minimal
fermionic Higgs-portal dark sector. To this end, we derive analytical
expressions for the couplings of the dark matter to the light and heavy
Higgses, and thus for the blind spot solutions. Unlike the case of a standard
Higgs sector, blind spots can occur even without a cancellation between
different contributions, while keeping unsuppressed and efficient the
annihilation processes in the early Universe involving Higgs states. As a
consequence, the allowed parameter space is dramatically enhanced.

We calculate rapidity distribution of photons due to Compton and annihilation
processes from {\em Quark Gluon Plasma} (QGP) with pre-equilibrium
momentum-space anisotropy. We also include contributions from hadronic matter
with late stage transverse expansion. A phenomenological model has been used
for the time evolution of hard momentum scale $p_{\rm hard}(\tau)$ and
anisotropy parameter $\xi(\tau)$. As a result of pre-equilibrium momentum-space
anisotropy, we find significant modification of photons rapidity distribution.
For example, with {\em fixed initial condition} (FIC) {\em free-streaming}
($\delta=2$) interpolating model we observe significant enhancement of photon
rapidity distribution at fixed $p_T$, where as for FIC {\em
collisionally-broadened} ($\delta=2/3$) interpolating model the yield increases
till $y \sim 1$. Beyond that suppression is observed. With {\em fixed final
multiplicity} (FFM) {\em free-streaming} interpolating model we predict
enhancement of photon yield which is less than the case of FIC. Suppression is
always observed for FFM {\em collisionally-broadened} interpolating model.

A general discussion is presented of the single logarithmic soft factor that
appears in two scale QCD observables in processes involving four partons. We
treat it as the ``fifth form factor'', accompanying the four collinear singular
Sudakov form factors attached to colliding and outgoing hard partons. The fifth
form factor is expressed in terms of the Casimir operators (squared colour
charges) of irreducible representations in the crossing $t$- and $u$-channels.
As an application we revisit the problem of large angle radiation in $gg\to gg$
and give a relatively simple solution and interpretation of the results. We
found an unexpected symmetry of the soft anomalous dimension under exchange of
internal and external variables of the problem whose existence calls for
explanation.

neutrino mixing and leptogenesis, in which charged lepton, Dirac and Majorana
neutrino mass matrices have fewer free parameters. Predictions of this new
ansatz for three light neutrino masses, three lepton flavor mixing angles, the
neutrinoless double-beta decay and the cosmological matter-antimatter asymmetry
are all in very good agreement with current experimental and observational

A discovery of flavour-changing Higgs-boson decays would constitute an
undeniable signal of new physics. We derive model-independent constraints on
the tch and tuh couplings that arise from the bounds on hadronic electric
dipole moments. Comparisons of the present and future sensitivities with both
the direct LHC constraints and the indirect limits from D-meson physics are
also presented.

The inert Higgs doublet model contains a stable neutral boson as a candidate
of dark matter. We calculate cross section for spin-independent scattering of
the dark matter on nucleon. We take into account electroweak and scalar quartic
interactions, and evaluate effects of scattering with quarks at one-loop level
and with gluon at two-loop level. These contributions give an important effect
for the dark matter mass to be around m_h/2, because a coupling with the
standard model Higgs boson which gives the leading order contribution should be
suppressed to reproduce the correct amount of the thermal relic abundance in
this mass region. In particular, we show that the dark matter self coupling
changes the value of the spin-independent cross section significantly.

We investigate the prospects of measuring the strange quark distribution
function at the Tevatron, using $W$ plus charm quark events. The $W$ plus charm
quark signal produced by strange quark--gluon fusion, $sg\rightarrow W^-c$ and
$\bar sg\rightarrow W^+\bar c$, is approximately 5\% of the inclusive $W+1$ jet
cross section for jets with a transverse momentum $p_T(j)>10$~GeV. We study the
sensitivity of the $W$ plus charm quark cross section to the parametrization of
the strange quark distribution function, and evaluate the various background
processes. Strategies to identify charm quarks in CDF and D$0\llap/$ are
briefly described.

We present an update of the Hagedorn hypothesis of the exponential growth of
the number of hadronic resonances with mass. We use the newest available
experimental data for the non-strange mesons and baryons, as well as fill in
some missing states according to the observation that the high-lying states
form chiral multiplets. The results show, especially for the case of the
mesons, that the Hagedorn growth continues with the increasing mass, with the
new states lining up along the exponential growth.

We study the flavor dependent $U(1)_{B_i-L_j}$ models, where an $i$th
generation of quarks and $j(\neq i)$th generation of leptons are charged. By
solving the anomaly free condition for the matter sector of the SM fermions and
three generations of right-handed (RH) neutrinos, we find that the $j$th
generation of RH neutrino is not necessarily charged under the $U(1)_{B_i-L_j}$
gauge symmetry with the charge $-1$ and the other (neither $i$th nor $j$th)
generation of RH neutrino can also be. As a general solution for the anomaly
cancellation conditions, the other two RN neutrinos than the charge $-1$ RH
neutrino may have non-vanishing charge and be stable due to the gauge
invariance, and hence it is a candidate for dark matter (DM) in our Universe.
We apply this result to a $B_3-L_2$ model and consider a light thermal DM and a
solution to the muon $g-2$ anomaly. We identify the parameter region to have
the DM mass range from MeV to sub-GeV and simultaneously solve the muon $g-2$
anomaly. We also derive the constraints on the gauge kinetic mixing parameter
by using the latest Borexino phase-II data.

The theory of heavy meson masses, in which the symmetries of heavy and light
quarks are exploited, can be used to describe the low energy interaction among
heavy mesons to a better extent. The spin-flavor symmetry leads to many
interesting relations between the properties of hadrons containing a heavy
quark. The most direct consequences concern the spectroscopy of such states. We
use such symmetries to explore some of the states of B-meson and predictions
are found to be in agreement with the experimental data.

We examine whether observable majoron emission in double beta decay can be
compatible with the big-bang nucleosynthesis (NS) and the observed neutrino
flux from SN1987A. It is found that the NS upper bound on $^4$He abundance
implies that the majoron-neutrino Yukawa coupling constant $g\leq 9\times
10^{-6}$ and its maximal value is allowed only when the scalar quartic coupling
constant $\lambda$ is extremely small, $\lambda\leq 100g^2$.
It is also observed that, although quite less restrictive, SN1987A also
provides independent constraints on coupling constants.

Based on the potential nonrelativistic QCD formalism, we compute the
nonrelativistic QCD long-distance matrix elements (LDMEs) for inclusive
production of $S$-wave heavy quarkonia. This greatly reduces the number of
nonperturbative unknowns and brings in a substantial enhancement in the
predictive power of the nonrelativistic QCD factorization formalism. We obtain
improved determinations of the LDMEs and find cross sections and polarizations
of $J/\psi$, $\psi(2S)$, and excited $\Upsilon$ states that agree well with LHC
data. Our results may have important implications in pinning down the heavy
quarkonium production mechanism.

(1^+) K_1(1400), (2^+) K^*_2(1430) and (1^-) K^*(1410). A method is proposed
for using these distributions to determine a photon polarization parameter in
the effective radiative weak Hamiltonian. This parameter is measured through an
up-down asymmetry of the photon direction relative to the K pi pi decay plane.
We calculate a dominant up-down asymmetry of 0.33 +- 0.05 from the K1(1400)
resonance, which can be measured with about 10^8 B B-bar pairs, thus providing
a new test for the Standard Model and a probe for some of its extensions.

Theoretical understanding of experimental results from relativistic heavy-ion
collisions requires a microscopic approach to the behavior of QCD n-point
functions at finite temperatures, as given by the hierarchy of Dyson-Schwinger
equations, properly generalized within the Matsubara formalism. The convergence
of sums over Matsubara modes is studied. The technical complexity of
finite-temperature calculations mandates modeling. We present a model where the
QCD interaction in the infrared, nonperturbative domain, is modeled by a
separable form. Results for the mass spectrum of light quark flavors (u, d, s)
and for the pseudoscalar bound-state amplitudes at finite temperature are

Using dispersive representations of the nucleon gravitational form factors,
the results for their absorptive parts from chiral effective field theory in
curved space-time, and the mechanical stability conditions, we obtain a model
independent inequality for the value of the gravitational $D(t)$ form factor at
zero momentum transfer (Druck-term). In particular, the obtained inequality
leads to a conservative bound on the Druck-term in the chiral limit $D \leq
-0.95(9)$. This bound implies the restriction on the low-energy constant $c_8$
of the effective chiral action for nucleons and pions in the presence of an
external gravitational field,
$c_8\leq -1.1(1)$ GeV$^{-1}$. For the physical pion mass we obtain a model
independent bound $D\leq -0.20(2)$.

The QCD coupling $\alpha_s$ is extracted from the energy evolution of the
first two moments (multiplicity and mean) of the parton-to-hadron fragmentation
functions at low fractional hadron momentum $z$. Comparisons of the
experimental $e^+e^-$ and deep-inelastic $e^\pm$p jet data to our NNLO$^*$+NNLL
predictions, allow us to obtain $\alpha_s(m_{_{\rm Z}})$ =
0.1205$\pm$0.0010$^{+0.0022}_{-0.0000}$, in excellent agreement with the
current world average determined using other methods at the same level of

The production of charmonium in heavy-ion collisions is investigated based on
Boltzmann-type transport model for charmonium evolution and langevin equation
for charm quark evolution. Charmonium suppression and regeneration in both
quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and hadron phase are considered. Charm quarks are far
from thermalization, and regeneration of charmonium in QGP and hadron gas is
neglectable at SPS and FAIR. At peripheral collisions, charmonium suppression
with hadron gas explains the experimental data well. But at central collisions,
additional suppression from deconfined matter (QGP) is necessary for the data.
This means there should be QGP produced at central collisions, and no QGP
produced at peripheral collisions at SPS energy. Predictions are also made at
FAIR $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=7.7$ GeV Au+Au collisions.

Differential measurements of the semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering
(SIDIS) process with polarized beams provide important information on the
three-dimensional structure of hadrons. Among the various observables are
azimuthal asymmetries that start at subleading power, and which give access to
novel transverse momentum dependent distributions (TMDs). Theoretical
predictions for these distributions are currently based on the parton model
rather than a rigorous factorization based analysis. Working under the
assumption that leading power Glauber interactions do not spoil factorization
at this order, we use the Soft Collinear Effective Theory to derive a complete
factorization formula for power suppressed hard scattering effects in SIDIS.
This yields generalized definitions of the TMDs that depend on two longitudinal
momentum fractions (one of them only relevant beyond tree level), and a
complete proof that only the same leading power soft function appears and can
be absorbed into the TMD distributions at this order. We also show that
perturbative corrections can be accounted for with only one new hard
coefficient. Factorization formulae are given for all spin dependent structure
functions which start at next-to-leading power. Prospects for improved
subleading power predictions that include resummation are discussed.

The quark dynamics inside light mesons, except pseudoscalar ones, can be
quite well described by a spinless Salpeter equation supplemented by a Cornell
interaction (possibly partly vector, partly scalar). A mass formula for these
mesons can then be obtained by computing analytical approximations of the
eigenvalues of the equation. We show that such a formula can be derived by
combining the results of two methods: the dominantly orbital state description
and the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization approach. The predictions of the mass
formula are compared with accurate solutions of the spinless Salpeter equation
computed with a Lagrange-mesh calculation method.

We construct hadronic amplitudes for the three-body decays
$\eta^{(\prime)}\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ and $\eta'\to\eta\pi^+\pi^-$ in a
non-perturbative fashion, allowing for $C$- and $CP$-violating asymmetries in
the $\pi^+\pi^-$ distributions. These amplitudes are consistent with the
constraints of analyticity and unitarity. We find that the currently most
accurate Dalitz-plot distributions taken by the KLOE-2 and BESIII
collaborations confine the patterns of these asymmetries to a relative per
mille level. Our dispersive representation allows us to extract the individual
coupling strengths of the $C$- and $CP$-violating contributions arising from
effective isoscalar and isotensor operators in
$\eta^{(\prime)}\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ and an effective isovector operator in
$\eta'\to\eta\pi^+\pi^-$, while the strongly different sensitivities to these
operators can be understood from chiral power counting arguments.

We review our results on the calculation of helicity 1/2 gravitino production
during preheating. The method we present is based on the equivalence between
goldstinos and longitudinal gravitinos at high energies. The problem is thus
reduced to the standard (Majorana) fermion production after inflation.
Comparison between helicity 3/2 and 1/2 production and with the results
obtained in the unitary gauge is also presented.

Most ongoing supersymmetry searches have concentrated on the high-energy

searches for the lightest neutralino and use the NuTeV experiment as an example

We investigate how the non-extensive approach works in high-energy physics.
Transverse momentum ($p_T$) spectra of several hadrons are fitted by various
non-extensive momentum distributions and by the Boltzmann--Gibbs statistics.~It
is shown that some non-extensive distributions can be transferred one into
another.~We find explicit hadron mass and center-of-mass energy {scaling both
in the temperature and in the non-extensive parameter, $q$,} in proton--proton
and heavy-ion collisions. We find that the temperature depends linearly, but
the Tsallis $q$ follows a logarithmic dependence on the collision energy in
proton--proton collisions. In the nucleus--nucleus collisions, on~the other
hand, $T$ and $q$ correlate linearly, as was predicted in our previous work.

We study neutrino flavor evolution in the quantum many-body approach using
the full neutrino-neutrino Hamiltonian, including the usually neglected terms
that mediate non-forward scattering processes. Working in the occupation number
representation with plane waves as single-particle states, we explore the time
evolution of simple initial states with up to $N=10$ neutrinos. We discuss the
time evolution of the Loschmidt echo, one body flavor and kinetic observables,
and the one-body entanglement entropy. For the small systems considered, we
observe `thermalization' of both flavor and momentum degrees of freedom on
comparable time scales, with results converging towards expectation values
computed within a microcanonical ensemble. We also observe that the inclusion
of non-forward processes generates a faster flavor evolution compared to the
one induced by the truncated (forward) Hamiltonian.

We revisit the holographic description of strange baryons in the context of
the Sakai-Sugimoto construction, by considering the strange quark mass as
heavy. Hyperons are described by a massive $(K,K^*)$ multiplet, bound to a
light-flavor instanton in bulk, much in the spirit of the Callan-Klebanov
construction. The modular Hamiltonian maps onto the Landau problem, a charged
particle in a 2-dimensional external magnetic field, induced by the bulk
Chern-Simons interaction, plus spin-orbit coupling. The ensuing holographic
hyperon spectrum compares fairly with the empirical one. The holographic
strange pentaquark baryon $\Theta^+_s$ is shown to be unbound.

In the framework of quantum open systems we analyze data from KamLAND by
using a model that considers neutrino oscillation in a three-family
approximation with the inclusion of the decoherence effect. Using a $\chi^2$
test we find new limits for the decoherence parameter which we call $\gamma$,
considering the most recent data by KamLAND. Assuming an energy dependence of
the type $ \gamma = \gamma_0 \left( E/E_0 \right) ^n$, in 95 \% C.L. the limits
found are $3.7 \times 10^{-24} GeV$ for $ n=-1$, $6.8 \times 10^{-22} GeV$ for
$ n=0$, and $1.5 \times 10^{-19} GeV$ for $ n=1 $ on the energy dependence.

Astrophysical tests of the stability of Nature's fundamental couplings are a
key probe of the standard paradigms in fundamental physics and cosmology. In
this report we discuss updated constraints on the stability of the
fine-structure constant $\alpha$ and the proton-to-electron mass ratio
$\mu=m_p/m_e$ within the Galaxy. We revisit and improve upon the analysis by
Truppe {\it et al.} by allowing for the possibility of simultaneous variations
of both couplings and also by combining them with the recent measurements by
Levshakov {\it et al.} By considering representative unification scenarios we
find no evidence for variations of $\alpha$ at the 0.4 ppm level, and of $\mu$
at the 0.6 ppm level; if one uses the Levshakov bound on $\mu$ as a prior,
the$\alpha$ bound is improved to 0.1 ppm. We also highlight how these
measurements can constrain (and discriminate among) several fundamental physics
paradigms.

functions, where $S$, $A_{\mu} $ and $V_{\mu}$ are short for scalar,
axial-vector and vector $SU(3)$ hadronic currents. We construct the necessary
Lagrangian such that the Green functions fulfill the asymptotic constraints, at
large momenta, imposed by QCD at leading order. We study the implications of
our results on the spectrum of scalars in the large-$N_C$ limit, and analyse
their decays.

In this paper, by employing the $k_{T}$ factorization theorem, we calculate
firstly the next-to-leading-order (NLO) twist-3 contributions to the pion
electromagnetic form factors in the $\pi\gamma^* \to \pi$ process. From the
analytical and numerical calculations we find the following points: (a) For the
leading order (LO) twist-2, twist-3 and the NLO twist-2 contributions, our
results agree very well with those obtained in previous works; (b) We extract
out two factors $F^{(1)}_{\rm T3}(x_i,t,Q^2)$ and $\ov{F}^{(1)}_{\rm
T3}(x_i,t,Q^2)$, which describe directly the NLO twist-3 contributions to the
pion electromagnetic form factors $F^+(Q^2)$; (c) The NLO twist-3 contribution
is negative in sign and cancel partially with the NLO twist-2 part, the total
NLO contribution can therefore provide a roughly $\pm 20\%$ corrections to the
total LO contribution in the considered ranges of $Q^2$; and (d) The
theoretical predictions for $Q^2 F^+(Q^2)$ in the low-$Q^2$ region agree well
with currently available data, this agreement can be improved by the inclusion
of the NLO contributions.

We show that the dynamics of the Higgs field during inflation is not affected
by metric fluctuations if the Higgs is an energetically subdominant light
spectator. For Standard Model parameters we find that couplings between Higgs
and metric fluctuations are suppressed by $\mathcal{O}(10^{-7})$. They are
negligible compared to both pure Higgs terms in the effective potential and the
unavoidable non-minimal Higgs coupling to background scalar curvature. The
question of the electroweak vacuum instability during high energy scale
inflation can therefore be studied consistently using the Jordan frame action
in a Friedmann--Lema\^itre--Robertson--Walker metric, where the Higgs-curvature
coupling enters as an effective mass contribution. Similar results apply for
other light spectator scalar fields during inflation.

In this paper we present an algorithm to add photon-splitting corrections to
the Yennie-Frautschi-Suura-style soft-photon resummation available in the
Sherpa Monte-Carlo event generator. Photon-splitting corrections enter at NNLO
in QED and, as these effects are not incorporated in the standard QED FSR
resummations, their size is larger than the pure hard photon-emission
corrections at the same order. We introduce different lepton dressing
strategies which incorporate further leptons and hadrons in addition to the
customary photons, and discuss their sensitivity to dressing parameters such as
the cone size. Finally, we quantify the effects of photon splittings into
charged fermions and scalars under different such dressing strategies on $Z\to
e^+e^-$ decays and find effects of up to 1% for suitably inclusive dressing
strategies independent of the dressing cone size, and up to 9% if only photons
are used in the dressing procedure with large dressing cones.

Parton Density Functions (PDFs) and their uncertainties are extremely
important topics for both the Tevatron and the LHC. Experiments at the Tevatron
can enhance this knowledge not only by constraining the PDF fits, but also by
developing and refining the available PDF tools through feed-back from the
experiments that are currently analyzing the highest energy hadron collider
data available. It is important that the community has standardized tools and
methods at its disposal. In this note we summarize briefly the most recent
developments of the The Les Houches Accord PDF (LHAPDF), which is the modern
replacement for PDFLIB. We also outline and compare the methods of quantifying
the impact of PDF uncertainties on physical observables. The PDF weighting
method for propagating errors from PDFs to event generator observables is
outlined in detail, and example code for using this method with PYTHIA is also
included.

Tree-level studies have shown in the past that kinematical correlations
between the two jets in Higgs+2-jet events are direct probes of the Higgs
couplings, e.g. of their CP nature. In this paper we explore the impact of
higher-order corrections on the azimuthal angle correlation of the two leading
jets and on the rapidity distribution of extra jets. Our study includes
matrix-element and shower MC effects, for the two leading sources of Higgs plus
two jet events at the CERN LHC, namely vector-boson and gluon fusion. We show
that the discriminating features present in the previous leading-order matrix
element studies survive.

only two next-to-leading order operators which contribute to quartic, but not
