1003.2853 | Kazunari Yamamoto | K. Yamamoto | On the Independent Crossing Approximation in Three Flavor Neutrino
Oscillations | 19 pages, 8 figures. | null | null | null | hep-ph | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | In dense matter like the Supernovae and at high energy, neutrinos have two
points where the nonadiabatic transitions could occur. With the present values
of the oscillation parameters in the standard three flavor scenario, two
nonadiabatic transitions can be regarded as independent, i.e., two can be
treated by the two flavor formalism separately. However, in the presence of new
physics, it is not clear in general whether such independence holds. We examine
this question by assuming hypothetical range of the neutrino energy and by
varying the mixing angles and the mass squared differences in the standard
case. We found the cases where Independent Crossing Approximation breaks down
for some unrealistic range of the mass squared difference and the mixing angle.
We also discuss the criterion which gives such independence.

within the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach. Our theoretical predictions for
the branching fractions agree well with the data within the errors. In order to
further test the framework of the three-body $B$ decays in PQCD and the wave
functions of $\pi\pi$ pair, we also calculate the branching fractions of the

and $B^{+}\to\pi^{+}f_{2}\left(1270\right)$ decays under the
narrow-width-approximation, which are in consistence with the experimental
data. The direct $CP$ asymmetries of $B^{+}\to\pi^{+}(\rho(770/1450)\to)
\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ decays are found to be very small because these decay modes are
tree-dominated. However, due to the large penguin contributions from the chiral
enhanced annihilation diagrams, $B^{+}\to\pi^{+} (f_{2}\left(1270\right)\to
)\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ decay has a large direct $CP$ asymmetry, which is also
discovered by LHCb collaboration. A relatively large $CP$ asymmetry is also

$\rho-\omega$ mixing, which would be measured LHCb and Belle-II experiments in

($10^{-24} M_\odot$) evaporate before the onset of Big-Bang nucleosynthesis,
rendering their detection rather challenging. If efficiently produced, they may
have dominated the universe energy density. We study how such an early
matter-dominated era can be probed successfully using gravitational waves (GW)
emitted by local and global cosmic strings. While previous studies showed that
a matter era generates a single-step suppression of the GW spectrum, we instead
find a "double-step" suppression for local-string GW whose spectral shape
provides information on the duration of the matter era. The presence of the two
steps in the GW spectrum originates from GW being produced through two events
separated in time: loop formation and loop decay, taking place either before or
after the matter era. The second step - called the "knee" - is a novel feature
which is universal to any early matter-dominated era and is not only specific
to PBHs. Detecting GWs from cosmic strings with LISA, ET, or BBO would set
constraints on PBHs with masses between $10^6$ and $10^9$ g for local strings
with tension $G\mu = 10^{-11}$, and PBHs masses between $10^4$ and $10^9$ g for

] | Light primordial black holes (PBHs) with masses smaller than $10^9$ g ($10^{-24} M_\odot$) evaporate before the onset of Big-Bang nucleosynthesis, rendering their detection rather challenging. If efficiently produced, they may have dominated the universe energy density. We study how such an early matter-dominated era can be probed successfully using gravitational waves (GW) emitted by local and global cosmic strings. While previous studies showed that a matter era generates a single-step suppression of the GW spectrum, we instead find a "double-step" suppression for local-string GW whose spectral shape provides information on the duration of the matter era. The presence of the two steps in the GW spectrum originates from GW being produced through two events separated in time: loop formation and loop decay, taking place either before or after the matter era. The second step - called the "knee" - is a novel feature which is universal to any early matter-dominated era and is not only specific to PBHs. Detecting GWs from cosmic strings with LISA, ET, or BBO would set constraints on PBHs with masses between $10^6$ and $10^9$ g for local strings with tension $G\mu = 10^{-11}$, and PBHs masses between $10^4$ and $10^9$ g for global strings with symmetry-breaking scale $\eta = 10^{15}~\mathrm{GeV}$. Effects from the spin of PBHs are discussed. |

We modify the gravity sector by allowing quantum corrections motivated from (1)

dilaton field. Next we apply conformal transformation on the metric to
transform the action back to the Einstein frame. We also show that an effective
theory constructed from these extended theories of gravity and SM sector looks
exactly the same. Using the relic constraint observed by Planck 2015, we
constrain the scale of the effective field theory ($\Lambda_{UV}$) as well as
the dark matter mass ($M$). We consider two cases- (1) light dark matter (LDM)
and (2) heavy dark matter (HDM), and deduce upper bounds on thermally averaged
cross section of dark matter annihilating to SM particles. Further we show that
our model naturally incorporates self interactions of dark matter. Using these
self interactions, we derive the constraints on the parameters of the (1) local

Advances in High Energy Physics | null | null | null | hep-ph astro-ph.HE hep-ex | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | Anomalies from the LHCb lepton flavour universality and Fermilab muon
anomalous magnetic momentum, show tantalizing hints of possible new physics
from the lepton sectors. Due to its large mass and shorter lifetime than muon,
the tau lepton is believed to couple more to possible new physics beyond the
standard model. Traditionally, tau leptons are probed through the decay
products due to tau's short life time. On the other hand, at a high energy
scale, a large fraction of tau leptons could be boosted to a much longer life
time and fly a visible distance from several centimetres up to kilometer length
scale, yet very informative to new physics beyond the standard model or high
energy cosmic rays. In this article, we show unique yet promising tau physics
by exploiting long-lived taus as a microscope or macroscope, to measure tau's
anomalous magnetic momentum to an unprecedented level of accuracy and detect
high energy cosmic neutrinos at the 1 TeV to 1 PeV scale, respectively.

] | Anomalies from the LHCb lepton flavour universality and Fermilab muon anomalous magnetic momentum, show tantalizing hints of possible new physics from the lepton sectors. Due to its large mass and shorter lifetime than muon, the tau lepton is believed to couple more to possible new physics beyond the standard model. Traditionally, tau leptons are probed through the decay products due to tau's short life time. On the other hand, at a high energy scale, a large fraction of tau leptons could be boosted to a much longer life time and fly a visible distance from several centimetres up to kilometer length scale, yet very informative to new physics beyond the standard model or high energy cosmic rays. In this article, we show unique yet promising tau physics by exploiting long-lived taus as a microscope or macroscope, to measure tau's anomalous magnetic momentum to an unprecedented level of accuracy and detect high energy cosmic neutrinos at the 1 TeV to 1 PeV scale, respectively. |

In this framework, two particle correlations are present without any additional
prescription, at variance with what happens, for example, in independent
particle models, such as the MIT bag model in its simplest version. From the
present analysis, conclusions similar to the ones obtained recenty in a
modified version of the bag model can be drawn: correlations in the
longitudinal momenta of the active quarks are found to be sizable, while those
in transverse momentum are much smaller. However, the used framework allows to
understand clearly the dynamical origin of the correlations. In particular, it
is shown that the small size of the correlations in transverse momentum is a
model dependent result, which would not occur if models with sizable quark
orbital angular momentum were used to describe the proton. Our analysis permits
therefore to clarify the dynamical origin of the double parton correlations and
to establish which, among the features of the results, are model independent.

understand how to subtract these spurious divergences in an unambiguous way.
Here we propose such a method. It is based entirely on the asymptotic
perturbative behavior of the QCD Green's functions without affecting
non-perturbative aspects such as mass terms or the asymptotic infrared
behavior. As a particular example, this allows us to assess the possible
influence of the tadpole diagram beyond perturbation theory. Finally, we test

consider mesons as quark - anti quark bound states. Recently, we used
relativistic quantum "constraint" mechanics to introduce a fully covariant
treatment defined by two coupled Dirac equations. For field-theoretic
interactions, this procedure functions as a "quantum mechanical transform of
Bethe-Salpeter equation". Here, we test its spectral fits against those
provided by an assortment of models: Wisconsin model, Iowa State model,
Brayshaw model, and the popular semi-relativistic treatment of Godfrey and
Isgur. We find that the fit provided by the two-body Dirac model for the entire
meson spectrum competes with the best fits to partial spectra provided by the
others and does so with the smallest number of interaction functions without
additional cutoff parameters necessary to make other approaches numerically
tractable. We discuss the distinguishing features of our model that may account
for the relative overall success of its fits. Note especially that in our
approach for QCD, the resulting pion mass and associated Goldstone behavior
depend sensitively on the preservation of relativistic couplings that are
crucial for its success when solved nonperturbatively for the analogous
two-body bound-states of QED.

Here, we test its spectral fits against those provided by an assortment of models: Wisconsin model, Iowa State model, Brayshaw model, and the popular semi-relativistic treatment of Godfrey and Isgur. We find that the fit provided by the two-body Dirac model for the entire meson spectrum competes with the best fits to partial spectra provided by the others and does so with the smallest number of interaction functions without additional cutoff parameters necessary to make other approaches numerically tractable. We discuss the distinguishing features of our model that may account for the relative overall success of its fits. Note especially that in our approach for QCD, the resulting pion mass and associated Goldstone behavior depend sensitively on the preservation of relativistic couplings that are crucial for its success when solved nonperturbatively for the analogous two-body bound-states of QED. |

rely upon adiabatic invariants and time modeling of a typical inflaton field

dimensions is given with a focus on the effects of Kaluza-Klein excitations in
the Standard Model sector. It is shown that the current accurate data on the
Fermi constant and on other electro-weak parameters puts a lower bound on the
scale of extra dimensions of $\sim$ 3 TeV, and thus the observation of such
dimensions lies beyond the reach of accelerators in the near future. The
correction to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon from extra dimensions
is discussed and one finds that with the current limit on the scale of extra
dimensions from the Fermi constant, the correction to $g_{\mu}-2$ does not
compete with the potentially large contributions from the supersymmetric
electro-weak correction. The possibility of generating Kaluza-Klein excitations
associated with large radius compactifications at the LHC is discussed. It is
shown that if such excitations are indeed produced their resonance structure
will encode information on the number of compactified dimensions as well as on
the nature of the specific orbifold compactification. A brief discussion of

In this article, we explore the implications for existing scenarios of
baryogenesis. Many compelling models of baryogenesis rely on electroweak
sphalerons to relax a $(B+L)$ charge asymmetry. Depending on the sign of the
CP-violating parameter, it is shown that the erasure of positive $(B+L)$ will
proceed more or less quickly than the relaxation of negative $(B+L)$. This is a
higher order effect in the kinetic equation for baryon number, which we derive
here through order $n_{B+L}^2$. Its impact on known baryogenesis models
therefore seems minor, since phenomenologically $n_{B+L}$ is much smaller than
the entropy density. However, there remains an intriguing unexplored
possibility that baryogenesis could be achieved with the vacuum angle alone
providing the required CP-violation.

low temperatures near the FIMP mass and is independent of unknown UV physics,
such as the reheat temperature after inflation. Moduli and modulinos of string
theory compactifications that receive mass from weak-scale supersymmetry

account of coherence breaking in cosmological plasma is calculated. Demanding
that the photon transformation does not lead to an exceedingly large CMB
spectral distortion and temperature anisotropy, the constraints on the coupling
constant of axion like particles to photons, $ g_{\phi\gamma} B \lesssim

magnetic field at the present time. Our results update the previously obtained
ones since we use the density matrix formalism which is more accurate than the
wave function approximation for the description of oscillations with an
essential coherence breaking. In the axion like particle mass range $10^{-25}$

The radiative corrections from the Yukawa couplings of the third generation
are found to dominate over the contributions from charginos and neutralinos.
Large Higgs mass uncertainties are due to the top mass uncertainty and the
unknown sign of the Higgs mixing parameter. For the low tanb scenario the mass
of the lightest Higgs is found to be below 103 GeV for a top mass below 190
GeV. The cross section at a LEP energy of 192 GeV is sufficient to find or
exclude this low tanb scenario for a top mass below 180 GeV. For the high tanb
scenario only a small fraction of the parameter space can be covered, since the
Higgs mass is predicted between 105 and 125 GeV in most cases. At the
theoretically possible LEP II energy of 205 GeV part of the parameter space for
the large tanb scenario would be accessible.

interactions between weak scale DM and the Higgs which are strong enough to
yield a thermal relic abundance consistent with observation can easily
destabilize the electroweak vacuum or drive the theory into a non-perturbative
regime at a low scale. As a consequence, new physics--beyond the DM
itself--must enter at a cutoff well below the Planck scale and in some cases as
low as O(10 - 1000 TeV), a range relevant to indirect probes of flavor and CP
violation. In addition, this cutoff is correlated with the DM mass and
scattering cross-section in a parameter space which will be probed
experimentally in the near term. Specifically, we consider the SM plus
additional spin 0 or 1/2 states with singlet, triplet, or doublet electroweak
quantum numbers and quartic or Yukawa couplings to the Higgs boson. We derive
explicit expressions for the full two-loop RGEs and one-loop threshold

resulting in the large top-loop contributions to its production via the gluon
fusion and its decays to the SM gauge bosons. We take into account the
constraints from the current 13 TeV LHC data on the channels of $t\bar{t}$,

the strongest limit for this spin-2 resonance $G$ comes from the $t\bar{t}$

contributes to the $\Delta\Gamma_{B_s}$ at $O(\alpha_s^2)$.

] | We propose formulae for computing the phase space integrals of $1\to 3$ and $1\to 4$ processes with massive particles in final states. As an application of these formulae we study the final state mass effects in some interesting phenomenological cases, giving fully integrated analytic results for the corresponding phase spaces. We consider also the $B_s-\bar{B}_s$ process at NNLO and calculate one of the most complicated master integrals, which contributes to the $\Delta\Gamma_{B_s}$ at $O(\alpha_s^2)$. |
1505.02013 | Dipankar Chakrabarti | Dipankar Chakrabarti, Chandan Mondal, Asmita Mukherjee | Gravitational form factors and transverse spin sum rule in a light front
quark-diquark model in AdS/QCD | 28 pages, 7 figures | Phys. Rev. D 91, 114026 (2015) | 10.1103/PhysRevD.91.114026 | null | hep-ph | http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ | The gravitational form factors are related to the matrix elements of the
energy-momentum tensor $T^{\mu\nu}$. Using the light front wave functions of
the scalar quark-diquark model for nucleon predicted by the soft-wall AdS/QCD,
we calculate the flavor dependent $A(Q^2)$, $B(Q^2)$ and $\bar{C}(Q^2)$ form
factors. We also present all the matrix element of the energy-momentum tensor
in a transversely polarized state. Further, we evaluate the matrix element of
Pauli-Lubanski operator in this model and show that the intrinsic spin sum rule
involves the form factor $\bar{C}$. The longitudinal momentum densities in the
transverse impact parameter space are also discussed for both unpolarized and
transversely polarized nucleons.
