The widely used nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization theory now
encounters some notable difficulties in describing quarkonium production. This
may be due to the inadequate treatment of soft hadrons emitted in the
hadronization process, which causes bad convergence of velocity expansion in
NRQCD. In this paper, starting from QCD we propose a rigorously defined
factorization approach, soft gluon factorization (SGF), to better deal with the
effects of soft hadrons. After a careful velocity expansion, the SGF can be as
simple as the NRQCD factorization in phenomenological studies, but has a much
better convergence. The SGF may provide a new insight to understand the
mechanisms of quarkonium production and decay.

Recent \alphas determinations from jet production at HERA are presented.
Three different observables lead to consistent alpha values. The result is
consistent with the world average and has an error of about 0.006. This is
quite a remarkable result, since it is only slightly less precise than the
world average.

Could new physics first manifest itself in Higgs self-coupling measurements?
In other words, how large could deviations in the Higgs self-coupling be, if
other Higgs and electroweak measurements are compatible with Standard Model
predictions? Using theoretical arguments supported by concrete models we derive
a bound on the ratio of self-coupling to single-Higgs coupling deviations in
ultraviolet completions of the Standard Model where parameters are not
fine-tuned. Broadly speaking, a one-loop hierarchy is allowed. We thus stress
that self-coupling measurements at the LHC and future colliders probe uncharted
parameter space, presenting discovery potential even in the absence of emerging
hints in single-Higgs coupling measurements. For instance, if other observables
show less than two-sigma deviations by the end of the LHC programme, the Higgs
self-coupling deviations could still exceed 200% in the models discussed,
without introducing fine-tuning of ultraviolet parameters.

A comparison of the inclusive photon energy spectrum in the radiative decay
$\BGAMAXS$, measured recently by the CLEO collaboration, with the standard
model is presented, using a $B$-meson wave function model and improving earlier
perturbative QCD-based computations of the same. The dependence of the photon
energy spectrum on the non-perturbative model parameters, $p_F$, the $b$-quark
Fermi momentum in the $B$ hadron, and $m_q$, the spectator quark mass, is
explicitly shown, allowing a comparison of these parameters with the ones
obtained from the analysis of the lepton energy spectrum in semileptonic $B$
decays. Taking into account present uncertainties, we estimate $\BBGAMAXS =
(2.55 \pm 1.28) \times 10^{-4}$ in the standard model, assuming
$\absvts/\absvcb= 1.0$. Comparing this with the CLEO measurement $\BBGAMAXS =
(2.32 \pm 0.67) \times 10^{-4}$ implies $\absvts/\absvcb= 1.1 \pm 0.43$, in
agreement with the CKM unitarity.

We perform a dispersive theoretical study of the reaction \gamma\gamma\to
pi^0\pi^0 emphasizing the low energy region. The large source of theoretical
uncertainty to calculate the \gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\pi^0 total cross section for
\sqrt{s}\gtrsim 0.5 GeV within the dispersive approach is removed. This is
accomplished by taking one more subtraction in the dispersion relations, where
the extra subtraction constant is fixed by considering new low energy
constraints, one of them further refined by taking into consideration the
f_0(980) region. This allows us to make sharper predictions for the cross
section for \sqrt{s}\lesssim 0.8 GeV, below the onset of D-wave contributions.
In this way, were new more precise data on \gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\pi^0 available
one might then distinguish between different parameterizations of the \pi\pi
isoscalar S-wave. We also elaborate on the width of the \sigma resonance to
\gamma\gamma and provide new values.

New colour octet vectors below the TeV scale could explain the anomalous t
tbar forward-backward asymmetry observed at the Tevatron experiments, while
being consistent with the current LHC data. These models generally lead to
four-top final states at the LHC at observable levels. We compute the four-top
production cross section at the LHC in a model with a massive colour octet
vector as a function its mass, its width and its coupling to the top quark.
Octet masses in the vicinity of the t tbar threshold are generally excluded by
present limits on the production of same-sign dileptons and trileptons. Masses
above 650 GeV are allowed, quite independently of the couplings, but they can
be probed with the luminosity of 5 fb^-1 already collected at the LHC, up to
around 800 GeV. The four-top production cross section is increased by a factor
~ 2 with sqrt{s}=8 TeV and by up to almost two orders of magnitude with
sqrt{s}=14 TeV, thus greatly increasing the reach for massive gluons after the
LHC energy upgrade.

We consider sparticle contributions to time dependent CP asymmetry in B ->
phi K_S. As for the gluino-squark loop, LR or RL insertion is more likely to
give recently observed S_{phi K} < 0 than LL or RR insertion. Neutral Higgs
contribution does not change S_{phi K} very much due to the strong constraint
from B_s -> mu^+ mu^-. We also show correlations among related processes such
as direct CP asymmetry in B -> X_s gamma and B_s - B_s bar mixing, and discuss
theoretical motivations for desired strength of flavor violation.

The matrix element method is widely considered the ultimate LHC inference
tool for small event numbers. We show how a combination of two conditional
generative neural networks encodes the QCD radiation and detector effects
without any simplifying assumptions, while keeping the computation of
likelihoods for individual events numerically efficient. We illustrate our
approach for the CP-violating phase of the top Yukawa coupling in associated
Higgs and single-top production. Currently, the limiting factor for the
precision of our approach is jet combinatorics.

Using first-principles calculation within Quantum Chromodynamics, we are able
to determine a pattern of strangeness=1 resonances which appear as complex
singularities within coupled $\pi K$, $\eta K$ scattering amplitudes. We make
use of numerical computation in the lattice discretized approach to the quantum
field theory with light quark masses corresponding to $m_\pi \sim 400\,
\textrm{MeV}$ and at a single lattice spacing. The energy dependence of
scattering amplitudes is extracted through their relationship to the discrete
spectrum in a finite-volume, which we map out in unprecedented detail.

In the first three years of running, the LHC has delivered a wealth of new
data that is now being analysed. With over 20 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated
luminosity, both ATLAS and CMS have performed many searches for new physics
that theorists are eager to test their model against. However, tuning the
detector simulations, understanding the particular analysis details and
interpreting the results can be a tedious task.
CheckMATE (Check Models At Terascale Energies) is a program package which
accepts simulated event files in many formats for any model. The program then
determines whether the model is excluded or not at 95% C.L. by comparing to
many recent experimental analyses. Furthermore the program can calculate
confidence limits and provide detailed information about signal regions of
interest. It is simple to use and the program structure allows for easy
extensions to upcoming LHC results in the future.

It is simple to use and the program structure allows for easy extensions to upcoming LHC results in the future. CheckMATE can be found at: http://checkmate.hepforge.org

We discuss the orbital angular momentum of partons inside a longitudinally
polarized proton in the recently proposed framework of spin decomposition. The
quark orbital angular momentum defined by Ji can be decomposed into the
`canonical' and the `potential' angular momentum parts, both of which are
represented as the matrix element of a manifestly gauge invariant operator.

We study the cosmological evolution of asymmetries in the two-Higgs doublet
extension of the Standard Model, prior to the electroweak phase transition. If
Higgs flavour-exchanging interactions are sufficiently slow, then a relative
asymmetry among the Higgs doublets corresponds to an effectively conserved
quantum number. Since the magnitude of the Higgs couplings depends on the
choice of basis in the Higgs doublet space, we attempt to formulate
basis-independent out-of-equilibrium conditions. We show that an initial
asymmetry between the Higgs scalars, which could be generated by CP violation
in the Higgs sector, will be transformed into a baryon asymmetry by the
sphalerons, without the need of $B-L$ violation. This novel mechanism of
baryogenesis through (split) Higgsogenesis is exemplified with simple scenarios
based on the out-of-equilibrium decay of heavy singlet scalar fields into the
Higgs doublets.

Electroweak symmetry breaking by dynamically generated masses of quarks

|
doctoral thesis

|
http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
|
The aim of the thesis is to study models of the electroweak symmetry breaking
caused by dynamically generated masses of quarks and leptons. (1) We perform
the basic analysis whether the main underlying idea, that the masses of only
known fermions can provide the electroweak symmetry breaking, is actually
feasible. For that we elaborate a two-composite-Higgs-doublet model of the
top-quark and neutrino condensation. The model suggests rather large number,
$\mathcal{O}(100)$, of right-handed neutrinos. (2) We analyze the model of
strong Yukawa dynamics where the dynamical fermion mass generation is provided
by exchanges of new elementary massive complex doublet scalar fields. We focus
on solving the coupled Schwinger--Dyson equations for fermion and scalar
self-energies by means of approximative methods. We document that strongly
hierarchical mass spectra can be reproduced. (3) We elaborate the flavor gauge
model where the dynamical fermion mass generation is provided by asymptotically
free non-Abelian self-breaking flavor gauge dynamics. We show that the Majorana
type condensation of right-handed neutrinos in the flavor sextet representation
triggers the complete flavor symmetry breaking. It leads to huge right-handed
neutrino Majorana masses.

The color connection of the parton system is an important bridge to connect
the perturbative process and the hadronization one. The special color
connection of four-heavy-quark system in $e^+e^-$ annihilation, which is the
necessary one for the doubly heavy baryon and tetraquark productions is
revisited. The hadronization effects, investigated with the help of the Quark
Combination Model are compared with the corresponding results employing the
Lund String Model in our previous work. The global properties related to a
certain color connection are not sensitive to various hadronization models.

If quarks are composite particles, then excited states are expected to play a
r\^ole in the Large Hadron Collider phenomena. Concentrating on virtual
effects, and using a large part of the CMS detection criteria, we present here
a realistic examination of their effect in diphoton production at the LHC. For
various luminosities, we present the 99 % confidence limit (CL) achievable in
$\Lambda-M_{q*}$ parameter space where $\Lambda$ is the compositeness scale and
M_{q^*} the mass of the state. For a q^* of mass 0.5 TeV, $\Lambda \leq 1.55
(2.95)$ can be excluded at 99% CL with 30 (200)${\rm fb}^{-1}$ integrated
luminosity.

We calculate the branching ratio of $\bar{B}^0 \to \Lambda_c^+ \bar{p}$ in
the PQCD approach. Most previous model calculations obtained branching ratios
significantly larger than experimental data. We find that the predicted
branching ratio for BR$(\bar{B}^0 \to \Lambda_c^+ \bar{p})$ in the PQCD
approach can vary over a range of $(2.3\sim 5.1)\times 10^{-5}$ with the
largest uncertainty coming from the parameters in the wave function of
$\Lambda_c$. With the favored values for the parameters in the $\Lambda_c^+$
wave function, $\beta = 1$ GeV and $m_q = 0.3$ GeV, the branching ratio is
about $2.3\times 10^{-5}$ which is satisfactorily consistent with the value
measured by experiments.

Violations of the Lorentz and CPT symmetries can appear as observable effects
in the direct production of top quarks and their subsequent decays. Earlier
results for the $q\bar{q}$ production process for $t\bar{t}$ pairs have been
extended to include the gluon fusion process which dominates at the LHC. In

We study neutrino masses and mixing in the context of flavor models with A4
symmetry, three scalar doublets in the triplet representation, and three lepton
families. We show that there is no representation assignment that yields a
dimension-five mass operator consistent with experiment. We then consider a
type-I seesaw with three heavy right-handed neutrinos, explaining in detail why
it fails, and showing with a numerical example that agreement with the present
neutrino oscillation data can be recovered with the inclusion of
dimension-three heavy neutrino mass terms that break softly the A4 symmetry.

We survey the low-energy supersymmetry phenomenology of a three-family
Pati-Salam model constructed from intersecting D6-branes in Type IIA string
theory on the T^6/(Z_2 x Z_2) orientifold which possesses many of the
phenomenological properties desired in string model-building. In the model,
there is no exotic matter in the low-energy spectrum, the correct mass
hierarchies for quarks and leptons may be obtained, and the gauge couplings are
automatically unified at the string scale. We calculate the supersymmetry
breaking soft terms and the corresponding low-energy supersymmetry particle
spectra for the model. We find the WMAP constrained dark matter density can be
generated in this model in the stau-neutralino and chargino-neutralino
coannihilation regions, with expected final states at LHC consisting of low
energy leptons and O(GeV) neutrinos. Moreover, we expect final states in the
supercritical string cosmology (SSC) scenario to comprise high energy leptons
and O(GeV) neutrinos.

We analyze in detail the constraints on SUSY-model parameters obtained from
K-Kbar mixing in the hypothesis of a splitted SUSY spectrum. FCNC contributions
from gluino-squark-quark interactions are studied in the so-called mass
insertion approximation. We present boundaries on mass insertions and on SUSY
mass scales. We improve previous results by including the NLO-QCD corrections
to Delta S=2 effective Hamiltonian and the complete set of B-parameters for the
evaluation of hadronic matrix elements.
A full set of magic-numbers, that can be used for further analyses of these
models, is also given. We find that the inclusion of NLO-QCD corrections and
the B-parameters change the results obtained at LO and in the Vacuum Insertion
Approximation by an amount of about 25-35%.

We analyze in detail the constraints on SUSY-model parameters obtained from K-Kbar mixing in the hypothesis of a splitted SUSY spectrum. FCNC contributions from gluino-squark-quark interactions are studied in the so-called mass insertion approximation. We present boundaries on mass insertions and on SUSY mass scales. We improve previous results by including the NLO-QCD corrections to Delta S=2 effective Hamiltonian and the complete set of B-parameters for the evaluation of hadronic matrix elements. A full set of magic-numbers, that can be used for further analyses of these models, is also given. We find that the inclusion of NLO-QCD corrections and the B-parameters change the results obtained at LO and in the Vacuum Insertion Approximation by an amount of about 25-35%.

The proton spin puzzle has inspired a vast programme of experiments and
theoretical work challenging our understanding of QCD and its role in the
structure of hadrons.The proton's internal spin structure is connected to
chiral symmetry and, through gluon degrees of freedom in the flavour singlet
channel, to the physics of the $\eta'$ meson. Why do quarks contribute just
about one third of the proton's spin? Why are $\eta'$ mesons and their
interactions so sensitive to gluonic degrees of freedom? We review the status
of these topics and some key observables for forthcoming experiments.

Inclusive Standard Model Higgs boson pair production and subsequent decay to
same-sign dileptons via weak gauge W bosons at the CERN Large Hadron Collider
has the capability to determine the Higgs boson self-coupling, lambda. The
large top quark mass limit is found not to be a good approximation for the
signal if one wishes to utilize differential distributions in the analysis. We
find that it should be possible at the LHC with design luminosity to establish
that the Standard Model Higgs boson has a non-zero self-coupling and that
lambda/lambda(SM) can be restricted to a range of 0--3.7 at 95% confidence
level if its mass is between 150 and 200 GeV.

We analyze the renormalon ambiguities that appear in factorization formulas
in QCD. Our analysis contains a simple argument that the ambiguities in the
short-distance coefficients and operator matrix elements are artifacts of
dimensional-regularization factorization schemes and are absent in cutoff
schemes. We also present a method for computing the renormalon ambiguities in
operator matrix elements and apply it to a computation of the ambiguities in
the matrix elements that appear in the NRQCD factorization formulas for the
annihilation decays of S-wave quarkonia. Our results, combined with those of
Braaten and Chen for the short-distance coefficients, provide an explicit
demonstration that the ambiguities cancel in the physical decay rates. In
addition, we analyze the renormalon ambiguities in the Gremm-Kapustin relation
and in various definitions of the heavy-quark mass.

We calculate finite-temperature corrections to the decay rate of a generic
neutral (pseudo)scalar particle that decays into (pseudo)scalars or
fermion-antifermion pairs. The ratio of the finite-temperature decay rate to
the zero-temperature decay rate is presented. Thermal effects are largest in
the limit where the decaying particle is nonrelativistic but with a mass well
below the background temperature, but significant effects are possible even
when we relax the former assumption. Thermal effects are reduced for the case
of nonzero momentum of the decaying particle. We discuss cosmological scenarios
under which significant finite-temperature corrections to the decay rate can be
achieved.

We consider a dark sector scenario with two dark matter species with opposite
dark $U(1)$ charges and an asymmetric population comprising some fraction of
the dark matter abundance. A new mechanism for boosting dark matter is
introduced, arising from the large mass hierarchy between the two particles. In
the galaxy, the two species thermalize efficiently through dark Rutherford
scattering greatly boosting the lighter dark matter particle, far above the
virial and escape velocities in the galaxy, while the dark charge prevents it
from escaping. We study the consequences of this scenario for direct-detection
experiments, assuming a kinetic mixing between the dark photon and the photon.
If the charged dark sector makes up 5% of the total DM mass in our galaxy and
the mass ratio is between $10^3-10^4$, we find that current and future
experiments may probe the boosted light dark matter for masses down to 100 keV,
in a hitherto unexplored parameter range.

Light-Front Quantization provides a physical, frame-independent formalism for
hadron dynamics and structure. Observables such as structure functions,
transverse momentum distributions, and distribution amplitudes are defined from
the hadronic light-front wavefunctions. One obtains new insights into the
hadronic spectrum, light-front wavefunctions, and the functional form of the
QCD running coupling in the nonperturbative domain using light-front holography
-- the duality between the front form and AdS$_5$, the space of isometries of
the conformal group. In addition, superconformal algebra leads to remarkable
supersymmetric relations between mesons and baryons of the same parity. The
mass scale $\kappa$ underlying confinement and hadron masses can be connected
to the parameter $\Lambda_{\overline {MS}}$ in the QCD running coupling by
matching the nonperturbative dynamics, as described by the effective conformal
theory mapped to the light-front and its embedding in AdS space, to the
perturbative QCD regime. The result is an effective coupling defined at all
momenta. This matching of the high and low momentum transfer regimes determines
a scale $Q_0$ which sets the interface between perturbative and nonperturbative
hadron dynamics. The use of $Q_0$ to resolve the factorization scale
uncertainty for structure functions and distribution amplitudes, in combination
with the principle of maximal conformality (PMC) for setting the
renormalization scales, can greatly improve the precision of perturbative QCD
predictions for collider phenomenology. The absence of vacuum excitations of
the front-form vacuum has important consequences for the cosmological constant.
I also discuss evidence that the antishadowing of nuclear structure functions
is flavor dependent, and why shadowing and antishadowing phenomena may be
incompatible with sum rules for nuclear parton distribution functions.

We have studied the differential cross section as well as the longitudinal
and perpendicular components of polarization of final
hyperon($\Lambda$,$\Sigma$) produced in the antineutrino induced quasielastic
charged current reactions on nucleon and nuclear targets. The nucleon-hyperon
transition form factors are determined from the experimental data on
quasielastic $(\Delta S =0)$ charged current (anti)neutrino--nucleon scattering
and the semileptonic decay of neutron and hyperons assuming G--invariance,
T--invariance and SU(3) symmetry. The vector transition form factors are
obtained in terms of nucleon electromagnetic form factors for which various
parameterizations available in literature have been used. A dipole
parameterization for the axial vector form factor and the pseudoscalar
transition form factor derived in terms of axial vector form factor assuming
PCAC and GT relation extended to strangeness sector have been used in numerical
evaluations. The flux averaged cross section and polarization observables
corresponding to CERN Gargamelle experiment have been calculated for
quasielastic hyperon production and found to be in reasonable agreement with
the experimental observations. The numerical results for the flux averaged
differential cross section$\frac{d\sigma}{dQ^2}$ and
longitudinal(perpendicular) polarization $P_L(Q^2)(P_P(Q^2))$ relevant for the
antineutrino fluxes of MINER$\nu$A, MicroBooNE, and T2K experiments have been
presented. This will be useful in interpreting future experimental results on
production cross sections and polarization observables from the experiments on
the quasielastic production of hyperons induced by antineutrinos and explore
the possibility of determining the axial vector and pseudoscalar form factors
in the strangeness sector.

We investigate cosmological evolution and implications of cosmic strings with
time-dependent tension. We derive basic equations of time development of the
correlation length and the velocity of such strings, based on the one scale
model. Then, we find that, in the case where the tension depends on some power
of the cosmic time, cosmic strings with time-dependent tension goes into the
scaling solution if the power is lower than a critical value. We also discuss
cosmic microwave background anisotropy and matter power spectra produced by
these strings. The constraints on their tensions from the Wilkinson microwave
anisotropy probe (WMAP) three year data and Sloan digital sky survey (SDSS)
data are also given.

We point out that the potential of Goldberger and Wise for stabilizing the
distance between two 3-branes, separated from each other along an extra
dimension with a warp factor, has a metastable minimum when the branes are
infinitely separated. The classical evolution of the radion (brane separation)
will place it in this false minimum for generic initial conditions. In
particular, inflation could do this if the expansion rate is sufficiently
large. We present a simplified version of the Goldberger-Wise mechanism in
which the radion potential can be computed exactly, and we calculate the rate
of thermal transitions to the true minimum, showing that model parameters can
be chosen to ensure that the universe reaches the desired final state.
Finiteness of bulk scalar field brane potentials can have an important impact
on the nucleation rate, and it can also significantly increase the predicted
mass of the radion.

We point out that the potential of Goldberger and Wise for stabilizing the distance between two 3-branes, separated from each other along an extra dimension with a warp factor, has a metastable minimum when the branes are infinitely separated. The classical evolution of the radion (brane separation) will place it in this false minimum for generic initial conditions. In particular, inflation could do this if the expansion rate is sufficiently large. We present a simplified version of the Goldberger-Wise mechanism in which the radion potential can be computed exactly, and we calculate the rate of thermal transitions to the true minimum, showing that model parameters can be chosen to ensure that the universe reaches the desired final state. Finiteness of bulk scalar field brane potentials can have an important impact on the nucleation rate, and it can also significantly increase the predicted mass of the radion.

I discuss low energy aspects of heavy meson decays, where there is at least
one heavy meson in the final state. Examples are $B -\bar{B}$ mixing, $B \to D
\bar{D}$, $B \to D \eta'$, and $B \to D \gamma$. %and $B \to D W $ (Isgur-Wise
function). The analysis is performed in the heavy quark limit within
heavy-light chiral perturbation theory. Coefficients of $1/N_c$ suppressed
chiral Lagrangian terms (beyond factorization) have been estimated by means of
a heavy-light chiral quark model.

In this paper, we investigate the effects of dimension six operators in the
framework of the standard model (SM) effective field theory on using
$t\bar{t}b\bar{b}$ channel at the LHC with the center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV.
In this analysis, we only assume leptonic top-quarks. Once the events were
simulated, the CMS-measured cross-section was used to constrain the
corresponding effective Wilson coefficients at $95\%$ confidence level.
Considering the SM effective Lagrangian, the $t\bar{t}b\bar{b}$ events in
proton-proton collision were very sensitive to the effective Wilson
coefficients $ \bar{C}_{g},\tilde{C_{g}},\bar{C}_{uG},\bar{C}_{uW}$. We show
that using $t\bar{t}b\bar{b}$ events, we can provide stronger constraints on
these Wilson coefficients than the current ones obtained from other channels.

We study the impact parameter dependence of solutions to the
Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation. We argue that if the kernel of the BK
integral equation is regulated to cutoff infrared singularities, then it can be
approximated by an equation without diffusion in impact parameter. For some
purposes, when momentum scales large compared to $\Lambda_{QCD}$ are probed,
the kernel may be approximated as massless. In particular, we find that the
Froissart bound limit is saturated for physical initial conditions and seem to
be independent of the cutoff so long as the cutoff is sufficiently large
compared to the momentum scale associated with the large distance falloff of
the impact parameter distribution.

We study the dark matter particle, the dark photon (DP), in the decay of the
Higgs-like boson. The nature of dark matter is maintained through the hidden
sector including the effects of breaking of the scale invariance. The model is
based on the additional $U^{\prime}(1)$ gauge group associated with light DP.
The interaction between DP and quarks is mediated by the derivative of the
scalar - the dilaton. The latter appears in the conformal sector which triggers
the electroweak symmetry breaking. Upper limits are set on the DP mass, the
mixing strength between the standard photon and DP. The model does allow to
estimate the DP mass with the value of 4.5 MeV. The maximal value of the scale
invariance breaking constant is also reported.

We investigate the possibility of a Higgs-Higgs bound state in the two Higgs
doublet model. Specifically we look for the effect of dimension six operators,
generated by new physics at a scale of a few TeV, on the self-couplings of the
heavy CP even scalar field in the model. Following the pioneering work of
Grinstein and Trott, we construct an effective field theory formalism to
examine the physics of the Higgs sector. The magnitudes of the attractive and
repulsive coupling strengths are compared to estimate the possibility of the
formation of the $H-H$ bound state. Another way to check if a bound state is
formed or not is from the formation and decay times of the bound state. The
possibilities in various types of two Higgs doublet models have been discussed
elaborately in the paper.

We have calculated the dispersion relation for the high energy cosmic rays
(protons, electrons and neutrinos) propagating in the Bose gas as well as Bose
condensate medium of the pseudo-scalar particles. For cosmic rays propagating
in the Bose gas, the mass of the particle will decrease and this is
proportional to the boson density in the medium. If the propagating fermion is
massless then it will develop an imaginary mass and thus will be absorbed in
the medium. But if the condition $m^2/m_{\phi}p_0\simeq 1$ is satisfied, then
the cosmic rays will propagate freely without loosing energy in the Bose
condensate medium.

We calculate in perturbative QCD the transverse momentum broadening of vector
bosons in heavy ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We predict
transverse momentum broadening of $W/Z$ bosons constructed from their leptonic
decay channels, which should be a clean probe of initial-state medium effect.
We also predict the upper limit of transverse momentum broadening of J/$\psi$
and $\Upsilon$ production as a function of N$_{\rm part}$ at the LHC energy.

Several models for physics beyond the Standard Model predict new particles
with a decay signature including hard photons and missing energy. Two
well-motivated examples are supersymmetry with gauge-mediated breaking (GMSB)
and the standard model with two universal extra dimensions.
Both models lead to decay chains with similar collider signatures, including
hard photon emission. The main discriminating feature are the spins of the new
particles. In this paper we discuss how information about the spins of the
particles can be extracted from lepton-photon or quark-photon invariant mass
distributions at the Large Hadron Collider. The characteristic shapes of the
distributions are derived analytically and then studied in a realistic
Monte-Carlo simulation. We find that for a typical GMSB mass spectrum with
particle masses below 1 TeV, already 10 fb$^{-1}$ integrated luminosity at 14
TeV center-of-mass energy are sufficient to discriminate the two models with
high significance.

Non-minimal supersymmetric models that predict a tree-level Higgs mass above
the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) bound are well motivated by
naturalness considerations. Indirect constraints on the stop sector parameters
of such models are significantly relaxed compared to the MSSM; in particular,
both stops can have weak-scale masses. We revisit the stop-catalyzed
electroweak baryogenesis (EWB) scenario in this context. We find that the LHC
measurements of the Higgs boson production and decay rates already rule out the
possibility of stop-catalyzed EWB. We also introduce a gauge-invariant analysis
framework that may generalize to other scenarios in which interactions outside
the gauge sector drive the electroweak phase transition.

We undertake a phenomenological study of SU(5) F-theory GUT models with an
additional U(1)_{PQ} symmetry. In such models, breaking SU(5) with hypercharge
flux leads to the presence of non-GUT multiplets in the spectrum. We study the
effect these have on the unification of gauge couplings, including two-loop
running as well as low- and high-scale threshold corrections. We use the
requirement of unification to constrain the size of thresholds from KK modes of
SU(5) gauge and matter fields. Assuming the non-GUT multiplets play the role of
messengers of gauge mediation leads to controlled non-universalities in the
sparticle spectrum while maintaining grand unification, and we study the LHC
phenomenology of this scenario. We find that the MSSM spectrum may become
compressed or stretched out {by up to a factor of three} depending on the
distribution of hypercharge flux. We present a set of benchmark points whose
production cross-sections and decays we investigate, and argue that precision
kinematic edge measurements will allow the LHC to distinguish between our model
and mGMSB.

We undertake a phenomenological study of SU(5) F-theory GUT models with an additional U(1)_{PQ} symmetry. In such models, breaking SU(5) with hypercharge flux leads to the presence of non-GUT multiplets in the spectrum. We study the effect these have on the unification of gauge couplings, including two-loop running as well as low- and high-scale threshold corrections. We use the requirement of unification to constrain the size of thresholds from KK modes of SU(5) gauge and matter fields. Assuming the non-GUT multiplets play the role of messengers of gauge mediation leads to controlled non-universalities in the sparticle spectrum while maintaining grand unification, and we study the LHC phenomenology of this scenario. We find that the MSSM spectrum may become compressed or stretched out {by up to a factor of three} depending on the distribution of hypercharge flux. We present a set of benchmark points whose production cross-sections and decays we investigate, and argue that precision kinematic edge measurements will allow the LHC to distinguish between our model and mGMSB.

In the gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking models with scalar tau as the
next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle, a scalar lepton may decay dominantly
into its superpartner, tau lepton, and the lightest scalar tau particle. We
give detailed formulas for the three-body decay amplitudes and the polarization
asymmetry of the outgoing tau lepton . We find that the tau polarizations are
sensitive to the model parameters such as the stau mixing angle, the neutralino
to slepton mass ratio and the neutralino mixing effect.

We show that Q-ball decay in Affleck-Dine baryogenesis models can account for
dark matter when the annihilation cross-section is sufficiently enhanced to
explain the positron and electron excesses observed by PAMELA, ATIC and
PPB-BETS. For Affleck-Dine baryogenesis along a d = 6 flat direction, the
reheating temperature is approximately 30 GeV and the Q-ball decay temperature
is in the range 10-100 MeV. The LSPs produced by Q-ball decay annihilate down
to the observed dark matter density if the cross-section is enhanced by a
factor ~ 10^3 relative to the thermal relic cross-section.

Leptoquarks enter in several extensions of the Standard Model as possible
solutions to a number of observed anomalies. We work within the soft-collinear
effective theory framework to present a detailed analysis of the decay rates of
the three leptoquarks that appear the most in literature, the scalars $S_1$ and
$S_3$ and the vector $U_1^{\mu}$. Using renormalization group methods we resum
the large logarithms arising from the evolution of the Wilson coefficients
between the New Physics scale and the electroweak scale. We also derive the
tree-level matching relations for the Wilson coefficients in the effective
theory for some specific leptoquark models.

I discuss the weak scale threshold corrections in supersymmetric models. I
describe the ``match and run" approximation to the threshold corrections and
compare with the exact one-loop results. With explicit examples I show that in
cases without large hierarchies in the mass spectra the ``match and run"
approximation can lead to order $\cal{O}$(1) errors in the determination of the
threshold corrections. I demonstrate how to obtain the threshold-corrected
Yukawa coupling from the fermion pole mass. I present corrections to the top
quark and squark/slepton masses as a function of the GUT scale parameters $m_0$
and $m_{1/2}$ and show that the gauge/Higgs sector corrections to the top quark
mass are small while the gluino correction can be larger than the well known
gluon correction.

A search for the lepton-flavor violating $\mu^{+}\rightarrow e^{+}\gamma$
decay using polarized muons is proposed. By measuring the angular distribution
of $e^{+}$s with respect to the muon spin direction, in particular antiparallel
$e^{+}$s, the serious physics background from $\mu^{+}\rightarrow
e^{+}\nu\overline{\nu}\gamma$ as well as accidental background from normal muon
decay accompanied by a high-energy photon can be suppressed significantly. In
addition to the enhancement of the sensitivity, the angular distribution would
discriminate among different extensions to the Standard Model, once the signal
is observed.

We show that the $\sigma/f_0(500)$ state with finite-temperature $T$
corrections to its spectral properties included, plays an essential role for
the description of the scalar susceptibility $\chi_S$, signaling chiral
symmetry restoration. First, we use the $O(4)$ Linear Sigma Model as a testbed
to derive the connection between $\chi_S$ and the $\sigma$ propagator and to
check the validity and reliability of the approach where $\chi_S$ is saturated
by the $\sigma/f_0(500)$ inverse self-energy, which we calculate at finite $T$
to one loop. A more accurate phenomenological description is achieved by
considering the saturation approach as given by the thermal $f_0(500)$ state
generated in Unitarized Chiral Perturbation Theory. Such approach allows to
describe fairly well recent lattice data within the uncertainty range given by
the UChPT parameters. Finally, we compare the UChPT saturated description with
one based on the Hadron Resonance Gas, for which the hadron mass dependences
are extracted from recent theoretical analysis. Several fits to lattice data
are performed, which confirm the validity of the thermal $f_0(500)$ saturated
approach and hence the importance of that thermal state for chiral symmetry
restoration.

We propose a simple extension of the minimal universal extra dimension
(UED)model by introducing a small curvature. The model is formulated as a small
anti-de Sitter curvature limit of the five-dimensional standard model (SM) in
the Randall-Sundrum background geometry. While the lightest Kaluza-Klein (KK)
particle can be thermal relic dark matter as usual in the UED model, the
KK-parity is explicitly broken in the presence of the small curvature and the
KK dark matter decays into the SM fermions with a long lifetime. Couplings of
the KK dark matter with SM fermion pairs in the five dimensional bulk are
controlled by fermion bulk masses. With a suitable choice of bulk masses for
leptons and quarks, the KK dark matter through its decay into leptons can
account for the cosmic-ray electron/positron excesses reported by the recent
PAMELA and FERMI satellite experiments, while suppressing the decay into
quarks.

In a model with a gauge group $G_{SM}\otimes U(1)_X$, where $G_{SM} \equiv
SU(3)_C \otimes SU(2)_L \otimes U(1)_Y$ is the standard model gauge group and
$U(1)_X$ is a horizontal local gauge symmetry, we propose a radiative
generation of the spectrum of quark masses and mixing angles. The assignment of
horizontal charges is such that at tree level only the third family is massive.
Using these tree level masses and introducing exotic scalars, the light
families of quarks acquire hierarchical masses through radiative corrections.
The rank three quark mass matrices obtained are written in terms of a minimal
set of free parameters of the model, whose values are estimated performing a
numerical fit. The resulting quark masses and CKM mixing angles turn out to be
in good agreement with the experimental values.

glueballs in the last year at this turn of the millenium conference. Cracks in
potential models of conventional mesons are developing. Hybrid meson adiabatic
surfaces have been calculated and interpreted, experimental J^PC exotics have
hybrid meson, four-quark state or non-resonant interpretations, and the strong
decay mechanism of hybrids has been studied. All theoretical progress on hybrid
mesons in the last year is mentioned. Overall features of glueballs are
visited: decays and the successes of the large N_c limit. Two promising
experimental areas are mentioned: charmonium hybrids at B-factories and s sbar
hybrids at Jefferson Lab.

It is shown by numerical calculations that the convoluted QCD pomeron
propagator in the external field created by a solution of the

This may open a possibility to apply the perturbative approach for the

We study di-Higgs production via gluon fusion at the high luminosity LHC in
the presence of new physics, focusing on the $b\bar b\gamma\gamma$ final
states. Taking a minimal set of three scalar leptoquarks (LQs) with cubic and
quartic interactions with the Higgs and choosing four benchmark points with a
light LQ, we perform a detailed analysis of differential distributions of the
di-Higgs production cross section, studying the imprints of the new physics
states running in the loops. Simulating the signal and main backgrounds, we
study the influence of the new physics in differential distributions such as
the invariant mass of the subsystems of final particles, the transverse
momentum, and angular variables, finding in particular a resonance peak
associated with the light LQ. It turns out that the angular separation of the
photons, which is correlated with the resonance LQ peak, is a very sensitive
observable that helps in discriminating the new physics signal from the
Standard Model background. We find that for two of our benchmarks discovery
could be reached with 3 ab$^{-1}$, whereas exclusion limits at 95% C.L. could
be claimed with 0.60-0.75 ab$^{-1}$. For the other two benchmarks that have
heavier LQ masses significances of order 2$\sigma$ are possible for 3
ab$^{-1}$. A similar analysis could be applied to other loop-enhanced models.

Taking a minimal set of three scalar leptoquarks (LQs) with cubic and quartic interactions with the Higgs and choosing four benchmark points with a light LQ, we perform a detailed analysis of differential distributions of the di-Higgs production cross section, studying the imprints of the new physics states running in the loops. Simulating the signal and main backgrounds, we study the influence of the new physics in differential distributions such as the invariant mass of the subsystems of final particles, the transverse momentum, and angular variables, finding in particular a resonance peak associated with the light LQ. It turns out that the angular separation of the photons, which is correlated with the resonance LQ peak, is a very sensitive observable that helps in discriminating the new physics signal from the Standard Model background. We find that for two of our benchmarks discovery could be reached with 3 ab$^{-1}$, whereas exclusion limits at 95% C.L. could be claimed with 0.60-0.75 ab$^{-1}$. For the other two benchmarks that have heavier LQ masses significances of order 2$\sigma$ are possible for 3 ab$^{-1}$. A similar analysis could be applied to other loop-enhanced models.

We construct the hadronic multiplicity distribution in terms of an elementary
distribution (at given impact parameter) and the inelastic overlap function
characterized by the observed BEL (Blacker-Edgier-Larger) behaviour. With
suitable parametrizations for the elementary quantities, based on some
geometrical arguments and the most recent data on e+e- annihilation, an
excellent description of pp and p(bar)p inelastic multiplicity distributions at
the highest energies is obtained.

We have calculated the magnetic moment of the recently observed $\Theta^+$
pentaquark in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules using the photon
distribution amplitudes. We find that $\mu_{\Theta^+}=(0.12\pm 0.06) \mu_N$,
which is quite small. We also compare our result with predictions of other

We show that a general principle of physical independence or physical
invariance of mathematical background manifold leads to a replacement of the
common derivative operators by the covariant co-derivative ones. This
replacement naturally induces a background matrix, by means of which we obtain
an effective Lagrangian for the minimal standard model with supplement terms
characterizing Lorentz invariance violation or anisotropy of space-time. We
construct a simple model of the background matrix and find that the strength of
Lorentz violation of proton in the photopion production is of the order
$10^{-23}$.

We present a new leptogenesis scenario, where the lepton asymmetry is
generated by CP violating decays of heavy electroweak singlet neutrinos via
electromagnetic dipole moment couplings to the ordinary light neutrinos. Akin
to the usual scenario where the decays are mediated through Yukawa
interactions, we have shown, by explicit calculations, that the desired
asymmetry can be produced through the interference of the corresponding
tree-level and one-loop decay amplitudes involving the effective dipole moment
operators. We also find that the relationship of the leptogenesis scale to the
light neutrino masses is similar to that for the standard Yukawa-mediated
mechanism.

We examine the effects of the extended gauge sector of the Littlest Higgs
model in high energy e+e- collisions. We find that the search reach in e+e- ->
f fbar at a 500 GeV center-of-mass energy International Linear Collider covers
essentially the entire parameter region where the Littlest Higgs model is
relevant to the gauge hierarchy problem. In addition, we show that this channel
provides an accurate determination of the fundamental model parameters, to the
precision of a few percent, provided that the LHC measures the mass of the
heavy neutral gauge field. Additionally, we show that the couplings of the
extra gauge bosons to the light Higgs can be observed from the process e+e- ->
Z higgs for a significant region of the parameter space. This allows for
confirmation of the structure of the cancelation of the Higgs mass quadratic
divergence and would verify the little Higgs mechanism.

We study possibility of observing the process $h^{0} \to \tau^{\pm}
\mu^{\mp}$ at a linear collider. The branching ratio is constrained to be of
the order of $10^{-4}$ by the $\tau^{-} \to \mu^{-} \eta$ result.
Supersymmetric standard models can reproduce such amount of the branching ratio
by taking a specific parameter set. The Higgsstrahlung process $e^{+}e^{-} \to
Zh^{0}$ is preferable because of its simple kinematic structure, then, the
signal process is $e^{+} e^{-} \to Z h^{0} \to Z \tau^{\pm} \mu^{\mp}$. The
most serious background comes from the process, $e^{+} e^{-} \to Zh^{0} \to
Z\tau^{\pm} \tau^{\mp} \to \tau^{\pm} \mu^{\mp} \nu \bar{\nu}$. We estimate the
significance of the signal, taking into account the background reduction.

electron-positron annihilation, deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering,
proton-proton interactions, and nucleus-nucleus collisions have many features
in common. Based upon this observation, we construct a model for all these
interactions, which relies on the fundamental hypothesis that the behavior of
high energy interactions is universal.

We consider the reaction ee -> q,q,qbar,qbar as a test of lepton number
non-conservation in the framework of the left-right-symmetric electroweak
model. The main contributions to this process are due to Majorana neutrino
exchange in t-channel and doubly charged Higgs (Delta(--)) exchange in
s-channel with a pair of right-handed weak bosons (WR) as intermediate state.
We show that in a linear ee collider with the collision energy of 1 TeV (1.5

anticipated luminosity of 10**35 cm**(-2)s**(-1), be detectable below the WR
threshold. We study the sensitivity of the reaction on the masses of the heavy
neutrino, WR and Delta(--).

We solve the Lindblad equation describing the Brownian motion of a Coulombic
heavy quark-antiquark pair in a strongly coupled quark gluon plasma using the
Monte Carlo wave function method. The Lindblad equation has been derived in the
framework of pNRQCD and fully accounts for the quantum and non-Abelian nature
of the system. The hydrodynamics of the plasma is realistically implemented
through a 3+1D dissipative hydrodynamics code. We compute the bottomonium
nuclear modification factor and elliptic flow and compare with the most recent
LHC data. The computation does not rely on any free parameter, as it depends on
two transport coefficients that have been evaluated independently in lattice
QCD. Our final results, which include late-time feed down of excited states,
agree well with the available data from LHC 5.02 TeV PbPb collisions.

In this paper, we study double charmonia production in Upsilon peaks,
especially, a S-wave charmonium $\eta_c$ and a P-wave charmonium $h_c(^1P_1)$,
or a S-wave charmonium $J/\psi$ and the $X(3940)$ and $X(4160)$ within the
nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) approach which is a powerful tool to realize the
factorization of double charmonia production in electron-positron annihilation.
The $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ state $\Upsilon(nS)$ can provide an ideal laboratory for
studying the properties of double-heavy quarkonium and also can separate the
perturbative and nonperturbative parts due to the large heavy quark mass
compared with the typical hadron scale $\Lambda_{QCD}$. Explanation of the
$X(3940)$ and $X(4160)$ as the $3 ^1S_0$ and $4 ^1S_0$ states, respectively,
are compatible with the observed upper limits for the branching fractions of
$\Upsilon(1S,2S)\to J/\psi+X$, where $X=X(3940)$, $X(4160)$ by the Belle
Collaboration. The branching fractions of $\Upsilon(1S,2S,3S)\to

The prospects of detecting the CP-odd Higgs pseudoscalar ($A$) in the minimal
supersymmetric model via its decay into a $Z$ boson and the lighter CP-even
Higgs scalar ($h$) at the CERN Large Hadron Collider are investigated. The
final state of $Z \to l^+l^-$ and $h \to b\bar{b}$, may provide a promising way
to simultaneously detect the $A$ and the $h$. The compact muon solenoid
detector performance is adopted for a realistic study of observability. In this
discovery channel, the masses of the $h$ and the $A$ can be reconstructed. The
impact of supersymmetric decay modes is considered.

The final state of $Z \to l^+l^-$ and $h \to b\bar{b}$, may provide a promising way to simultaneously detect the $A$ and the $h$. The compact muon solenoid detector performance is adopted for a realistic study of observability. In this discovery channel, the masses of the $h$ and the $A$ can be reconstructed. The impact of supersymmetric decay modes is considered.

In Higgsless models, new vector resonances appear to restore the unitarity of
the W_L W_L scattering amplitude without the Higgs boson. In the ideal
delocalized three site Higgsless model, one of large prodcution cross section
of the neutral vector resonance (Z') at the Large Hadron Collider is the
W-associated production, pp \to Z'W \to WWW. Although the dileptonic decay
channnel, l\nu l'\nu 'jj, is experimentally clean to search for the Z' signals,
it is difficult to reconstruct the Z' invariant mass due to the two neutrinos
in the final state. We study collider signatures of Z' using the
M_{T2}-Assisted On-Shell (MAOS) reconstruction of the missing neutrino momenta.
We show the prospect of the Z' mass determination in the channel, l\nu l'\nu
'jj, at the Large Hadron Collider.

We show that, under reasonable hypotheses, it is possible to study two-body
non-leptonic weak decays in numerical simulations of lattice QCD. By assuming
that final-state interactions are dominated by the nearby resonances and that
the couplings of the resonances to the final particles are smooth functions of
the external momenta, it is possible indeed to overcome the difficulties
imposed by the Maiani-Testa no-go theorem and to extract the weak decay
amplitudes, including their phases. Under the same assumptions, results can be
obtained also for time-like form factors and quasi-elastic processes.

In the left-right symmetric models without bi-doublet Higgs scalars, the
standard model fermions can obtain masses by integrating out heavy charged
singlet fermions. We find the decays of heavy neutral singlet fermions,
responsible for generating small neutrino masses, can simultaneously produce a
left-handed lepton asymmetry for baryon asymmetry and a relic density of
right-handed neutrinos for dark matter. Benefited from the left-right symmetry,
the properties of the dark matter can be related to the generation of the
neutrino masses and the baryon asymmetry. We also indicate that the decays of
the non-thermally produced right-handed neutrinos can explain the observed
fluxes of 511 keV photons from the Galactic bulge.

Here we update the predictions for lepton flavour violating tau and muon
decays, $l_j \to l_i \gamma$, $l_j \to 3 l_i$, and $\mu-e$ conversion in
nuclei. We work within a SUSY-seesaw context where the particle content of the
Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model is extended by three right handed
neutrinos plus their corresponding SUSY partners, and where a seesaw mechanism
for neutrino mass generation is implemented. Two different scenarios with
either universal or non-universal soft supersymmetry breaking Higgs masses at
the gauge coupling unification scale are considered. After comparing the
predictions with present experimental bounds and future sensitivities, the most
promising processes are particularly emphasised.

In this work we compare the predictions for the scattering length and

$\eta p$, assuming the $N^*(1535)$ state as a molecular state of these
channels, or an original genuine state, made for instance from three quarks.
Looking at very different scenarios, what we conclude is that the predictions
of these two pictures are drastically different, to the point that we advise
the measurement of these magnitudes, accessible for instance by measuring
correlation functions, in order to gain much valuable information concerning
the nature of this state.

we present results for photon+jet and photon+hadron production in p+A
collisions, di-jet and di-hadron production in e+A collisions, and heavy-quark
and heavy-meson pair production in both p+A and e+A collisions. We evaluate the
effect of both initial-state and final-state multiple scattering, which
determine the strength of the nuclear-induced transverse momentum imbalance in
these processes. We give theoretical predictions for the experimentally
relevant kinematic regions in d+Au collisions at RHIC, p+Pb collisions at LHC
and e+A collisions at the future EIC and LHeC.

Consequences of QCD current algebra formulated on a light-like hyperplane are
derived for the forward scattering of vector and axial-vector currents on an
arbitrary hadronic target. It is shown that current algebra gives rise to a
special class of sum rules that are direct consequences of the independent
chiral symmetry that exists at every point on the two-dimensional transverse
plane orthogonal to the lightlike direction. These sum rules are obtained by
exploiting the closed, infinite-dimensional algebra satisfied by the transverse
moments of null-plane axial-vector and vector charge distributions. In the
special case of a nucleon target, this procedure leads to the Adler-Weisberger,
Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn, Cabbibo-Radicatti and Fubini-Furlan-Rossetti sum rules.
Matching to the dispersion-theoretic language which is usually invoked in
deriving these sum rules, the moment sum rules are shown to be equivalent to
algebraic constraints on forward S-matrix elements in the Regge limit.

Evolution of Baryon Rich Quark-Gluon Plasma and radiation of Single

The (3+1) dimensional expansion of the quark gluon plasma (QGP) produced at
finite baryon density has been studied using relativistic hydrodynamical
approach. The pressure functional of the equation of state (EoS) has been
determined for the interacting nuclear matter with mesons exchange. The EoS has
been used to solve hydrodynamical equations using RHLLE algorithm. The space
time expansion of the plasma has been studied for the cases of SPS energy and
RHIC energy both at finite baryon density and for a hypothetical case of SPS
energy at zero baryon density. The space-time evolution is slowed and the life
times of QGP and mixed phases are shortened in the presence of finite baryon
density. The space time integrated total photon yields have been estimated by
convoluting the static emission rates with the space time expansion of the
plasma. It has been shown that the total photon yield at zero rapidity is not
significantly affected by the baryon density for SPS energy. The total photon
yield is unaffected by the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect at SPS energy at
zero baryon density, as the quark matter contribution to photon yield is less
compared to hadronic matter.

We study how many-body effects alter the dark matter (DM) thermalization time
inside neutron stars. We find that Pauli blocking, kinematic constraints, and
superfluidity and superconductivity in the neutron star significantly affect
the DM thermalization time, in general lengthening it. This could change the
final DM mass and DM-nucleon cross section constraints by considering black
hole formation in neutron stars due to DM accretion. We consider the class of
models in which DM is an asymmetric, complex scalar particle with a mass
between 1 keV and 5 GeV which couples to regular matter via some heavy vector
boson. Interestingly, we find that the discovery of asymmetric, bosonic DM
could motivate the existence of exotic neutron star cores. We apply our results
to the case of mixed sneutrino DM.

We propose a new formula for extracting the polarized gluon distribution from
the large-$p_T$ light hadron pair production for semi-inclusive processes in
polarized deep inelastic scattering. In general, a large-$p_T$ hadron pair is
produced via photon-gluon fusion(PGF) and QCD Compton at the lowest order of
QCD. The PGF gives us a direct information on $\Delta g$ in the nucleon, while
QCD Compton becomes background to the signal process for extracting $\Delta g$.
We show that the contribution from this background, i.e. the QCD Compton
process, can be removed by using symmetry relation among fragmentation
functions and taking an appropriate combination of various light hadron pair
production processes, and thus the double spin asymmetry can be described in
terms of $\Delta g/g$ alone.

The PGF gives us a direct information on $\Delta g$ in the nucleon, while QCD Compton becomes background to the signal process for extracting $\Delta g$. We show that the contribution from this background, i.e. the QCD Compton process, can be removed by using symmetry relation among fragmentation functions and taking an appropriate combination of various light hadron pair production processes, and thus the double spin asymmetry can be described in terms of $\Delta g/g$ alone.

White dwarfs (WD) effectively act as high-gain amplifiers for relatively
small energy deposits within their volume via their supernova instability. In
this paper, we consider the ways a galactic abundance of
$\mathcal{O}(1)$-charged massive relics (i.e., CHAMPs) could trigger this
instability, thereby destroying old WD. The dense central core structure formed
inside the WD when heavy CHAMPs sink to its center can trigger a supernova via
injection of energy during collapse phases, via direct density-enhanced
(pycnonuclear) fusion processes of carbon nuclei dragged into the core by the
CHAMPs, or via the formation of a black hole (BH) at the center of the WD. In
the latter scenario, Hawking radiation from the BH can ignite the star if the
BH forms with a sufficiently small mass; if the BH instead forms at large
enough mass, heating of carbon nuclei that accrete onto the BH as it grows in
size may be able to achieve the same outcome (with the conservative alternative
being simply that the WD is devoured by the BH). The known existence of old WD
that have not been destroyed by these mechanisms allows us to improve by many
orders of magnitude on the existing CHAMP abundance constraints in the regime
of large CHAMP mass, $m_X \sim 10^{11}$-$10^{18}\,$GeV. Additionally, in
certain regions of parameter space, we speculate that this setup could provide
a trigger mechanism for the calcium-rich gap transients: a class of anomalous,
sub-luminous supernova events that occur far outside of a host galaxy.

We present a general, model-independent formalism for determining bounds on
the production of photons in dwarf spheroidal galaxies via dark matter
annihilation, applicable to any set of assumptions about dark matter particle
physics or astrophysics. As an illustration, we analyze gamma-ray data from the
Fermi Large Area Telescope to constrain a variety of nonstandard dark matter
models, several of which have not previously been studied in the context of
dwarf galaxy searches.

We demonstrate that the process $e^+e^-\to t\anti t h$ at the NLC provides a
powerful tool for extracting the $t\anti t$ (Yukawa) couplings of the $\h$. In
combination with the $\epem\to Z\h$ process, an accurate determination of the
$ZZ$ coupling of the $\h$ is also possible. The resulting ability to
distinguish different models of the Higgs sector is illustrated by detailed
studies for two-Higgs-doublet models.

We present charm and bottom nuclear modification factors for RHIC and LHC
using Standard Model perturbative QCD and recent AdS/CFT string drag energy
loss models. We find that extreme extrapolations to LHC mask potential
experimentally determinable differences in the individual $R_{AA}$s but that
their ratio, $R_{AA}^c/R_{AA}^b$ as a function of transverse momentum is a
remarkably robust observable for finding deviations from either theoretical
framework.

We present a study of the Drell-Yan process in pion-proton collisions
including next-to-leading-logarithmic threshold-resummed contributions. We
analyze rapidity-integrated as well as rapidity-differential cross sections in
the kinematic regime relevant for the COMPASS fixed target experiment. We find
that resummation leads to a significant enhancement of the cross section
compared to fixed-order calculations in this regime. Particularly large
corrections arise at large forward and backward rapidities of the lepton pair.
We also study the scale dependence of the cross section and find it to be
substantially reduced by threshold resummation.

We study the top quark portal dominated dark matter interactions, and its
implications for the gamma ray line searches. In this picture, the dark matter
interactions with photons and gluons are loop induced by the axial anomaly of
the top quark current. We show there can be a natural suppression of the
tree-level annihilation of dark matter, and the photon channel in turn has a
substantial rate when the main annihilation proceeds into gluons. We observe a
competition between the indirect detection of gamma ray line and the search
with monojet plus missing energy events at LHC, and the 7 TeV data already set
an upper bound of ~ 10^{-28} cm^3/s on the photonic annihilation cross section.
This upper limit is compatible with a thermal WIMP scenario.

We study color superconductivity in external magnetic field. We discuss the
reason why the mixing angles in color-flavor locked (CFL) and two-flavor
superconductivity (2SC) phases are different despite the fact that the CFL gap
goes to the 2SC gap for $m_s \to \infty$. Although flavor symmetry is
explicitly broken in external magnetic field, we show that all values of gaps
in their coset spaces of possible solutions in the CFL phase are equivalent in
external magnetic field.

We perform and extend real-time numerical simulation of a low-dimensional
scalar field theory or a quantum mechanical system using stochastic
quantization. After a brief review of the quantization method and the complex
Langevin dynamics, we calculate the propagator and make a comparison with
analytical results. This is a first step toward general applications, and we
focus only on the vacuum properties of the theory; this enables us to handle
the boundary condition with the $i\epsilon$ prescription in frequency space.
While we can control stability of the numerical simulation for any coupling
strength, our results turn out to flow into an unphysical fixed-point, which is
qualitatively understood from the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation. We
propose a simple truncation scheme, "restricted phase-space approximation," to
avoid the unphysical fixed-point. With this method, we obtain stable results at
reasonably good accuracy. Finally we give a short discussion on the closed-time
path formalism and demonstrate the direct computation of the vacuum expectation
value not with the $i\epsilon$ prescription but from an explicit construction
of the Feynman kernel.
