Double parton distributions are the nonperturbative ingredients needed for computing double parton scattering processes in hadron-hadron collisions. They describe a variety of correlations between two partons in a hadron and depend on a large number of variables, including two independent renormalization scales. This makes it challenging to compute their scale evolution with satisfactory numerical accuracy while keeping computational costs at a manageable level. We show that this problem can be solved using interpolation on Chebyshev grids, extending the methods we previously developed for ordinary single-parton distributions. Using an implementation of these methods in the C++ library ChiliPDF, we study for the first time the evolution of double parton distributions beyond leading order in perturbation theory.

Employing the asymptotic instanton solution in an arbitrary background of a set of holographic QCD models, we show that baryon form factors have a precise large-distance behaviour regardless of the background. The dependence coincides with that obtained from general chiral soliton models and large-$N_C$ chiral perturbation theory. The nonlinear terms in the equations of motion are necessary to recover the correct results. We also show that the holographic currents have the right structure at low energy if the solutions of the full equation of motion, instead of the linearized ones, are used. The indication is that in this holographic approach, the linearized approximation used in the meson sector is not appropriate for the solitonic description of the baryons.

We analyse the decay $\Theta_s(1/2^+)\to NK$ in a non-relativistic Fock space description using three and five constituent quarks for the nucleon and the pentaquark, respectively. Following Jaffe and Wilczek \cite{jw}, we assume that quark-quark correlations in spin-zero state play an important role for the pentaquark internal structure. Within this scenario, a strong dynamical suppression of the decay width is shown to be possible only if the pentaquark has an asymmetric "peanut" structure with the strange antiquark in the center and the two extended composite diquarks rotating around. In this case a decay width of $\simeq$ 1 MeV may be a natural possibility.

We study CP asymmetries in $B^{\pm}\to h\pi^{\pm}$ decays, where the hadronic states $h=\rho\rho, K\Kbar\pi$, $\pi^+\pi^-K^+K^-$, etc., and $h=\pi^+\pi^-, K^+K^-, 2(\pi^+\pi^-)$, etc., are taken on the resonances $\eta_c$ and $\chi_{c0}$, respectively. The relatively large $\eta_c$ and $\chi_{c0}$ decay widths, of about 10$-$15 MeV, provide the necessary absorptive phase in the interference between the resonance (going through $b\to c\cbar d$) and the background (through $b\to u\ubar d$) contributions to the amplitude. Large asymmetries of order 10$\%$ or more are likely in some modes.

The predictive power of top-condensation models strongly depends on the behaviour of higher dimensional operators. These are analyzed in this paper by an extension of the standard renormalization group (RG) arguments which turns out to be a surprisingly powerful tool. Top-condensation models intermediated by underlying scalar exchange can be shown to be mere reparametrizations of the standard model. Further on, RG-arguments show that dynamical vector states cannot be lowered in top-condensation models. Finally we give a general argument concerning the size of higher dimensional operators of heavy vector exchange.

We illustrate it with several examples, demonstrating different phenomena, including metastable supersymmetry breaking. Then we give a brief review of the dynamics of supersymmetric gauge theories. Finally, we use this dynamics to present various mechanisms for dynamical supersymmetry breaking. These notes are based on lectures given by the authors in 2007, at various schools.

High-quality data of the CLAS Collaboration are described in the framework of a model which takes into account mixing of the quark configurations and the hadron-molecular states. The model allows for a rough estimate of the quark core weight in the wave function of the resonance in a comparison with high momentum transfer data on resonance electroproduction.

The $D$-wave admixture in quarkonium wave functions is acquired from the photonlike structure of $V\to Q\bar Q$ transition in the light-front frame widely used in the literature. Such a $D$-wave ballast is not justified by any nonrelativistic model for $Q-\bar Q$ interaction potential and leads to falsified predictions for the cross sections in heavy quarkonium production in ultra-peripheral nuclear collisions. We analyze this negative role of $D$-wave contribution by comparing with our previous studies based on a simple non-photon-like "$S$-wave-only" $V\to Q\bar Q$ transition in the $Q\bar Q$ rest frame.

We study the explicit CP violation of the Higgs sector in the next--to--minimal supersymmetric model with a gauge singlet Higgs field. Our numerical predictions show that electric dipole moment of electron lies around the present experimental upper limits. The mass of the lightest Higgs boson is quite sensitive to the CP violating phases in the theory. It is observed that as the vacuum expectation value of the singlet gets higher values, CP violation increases.

A modified neutrino sector could imprint a signature on precision measurements of the quark sector because many such measurements rely on the semi-leptonic decays of the charged currents. Currently, global fits of the determinations of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements point to a $3\sigma$-level deficit in the first-row CKM unitarity test, commonly referred to as the Cabibbo-angle anomaly. We find that a MeV sterile neutrino that mixes with the electron-type neutrino increases the extracted $|V_{ud}|$, accommodating the Cabibbo-angle anomaly. This MeV sterile neutrino affects the superallowed nuclear $\beta$ decays and neutron decay, but it barely modifies the other measurements of the CKM elements. While various constraints may apply to such a sterile neutrino, we present viable scenarios within an extension of the inverse seesaw model.

We show that the high-energy cosmic neutrinos seen by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory can be used to probe interactions between neutrinos and the dark sector that cannot be reached by current cosmological methods. The origin of the observed neutrinos is still unknown, and their arrival directions are compatible with an isotropic distribution. This observation, together with dedicated studies of Galactic plane correlations, suggest a predominantly extragalactic origin. Interactions between this isotropic extragalactic flux and the dense dark matter (DM) bulge of the Milky Way would thus lead to an observable imprint on the distribution, which would be seen by IceCube as 1) slightly suppressed fluxes at energies below a PeV and 2) a deficit of events in the direction of the Galactic center. We perform an extended unbinned likelihood analysis using the four-year high-energy starting event dataset to constrain the strength of DM-neutrino interactions for two model classes. We find that, in spite of low statistics, IceCube can probe regions of the parameter space inaccessible to current cosmological methods.

Relation between the infrared renormalons, the Borel resummation prescriptions, and the analyticity structure of Green functions in perturbative QCD (pQCD) is investigated. A specific recently suggested Borel resummation prescription resulted in the Principal Value and an additional power-suppressed correction that is consistent with the Operator Product Expansion. Arguments requiring the finiteness of the result for any power coefficient of the leading infrared renormalon, and the consistency in the case of the absence of that renormalon, require that this prescription be modified. The apparently most natural modification leads to the result represented by the Principal Value. The analytic structure of the amplitude in the complex coupling plane, obtained in this way, is consistent with that obtained in the literature by other methods.

We present a general discussion of the unitarity triangle from $\epsilon_K$, $\Delta M_{d,s}$ and $K \to \pi\nu\overline{\nu}$ in models with minimal flavour violation (MFV), allowing for arbitrary signs of the generalized Inami--Lim functions $F_{tt}$ and $X$ relevant for $(\epsilon_K,\Delta M_{d,s})$ and $K \to \pi\nu\overline{\nu}$, respectively. In the models in which $F_{tt}$ has a sign opposite to the one in the Standard Model, i.e. $F_{tt}<0$, the data for $(\epsilon_K, \Delta M_{d,s})$ imply an absolute lower bound on the $B_d\to\psi K_{S}$ CP asymmetry $a_{\psi K_S}$ of 0.69, which is substantially stronger than 0.42 arising in the case of $F_{tt}>0$. An important finding of this paper is the observation that for given $Br(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\overline{\nu})$ and $a_{\psi K_S}$ only two values for $Br(K_{L}\to\pi^0\nu\overline{\nu})$, corresponding to the two signs of $X$, are possible in the full class of MFV models, independently of any new parameters arising in these models. This provides a powerful test for this class of models. Moreover, we derive absolute lower and upper bounds on $Br(K_{L}\to\pi^0\nu\overline{\nu})$ as functions of $Br(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\overline{\nu})$. Using the present experimental upper bounds on $Br(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\overline{\nu})$ and $|V_{ub}/V_{cb}|$, we obtain the absolute upper bound $Br(K_{L}\to\pi^0\nu\overline{\nu})< 7.1 \cdot 10^{-10}$ (90% C.L.).

We present a general discussion of the unitarity triangle from $\epsilon_K$, $\Delta M_{d,s}$ and $K \to \pi\nu\overline{\nu}$ in models with minimal flavour violation (MFV), allowing for arbitrary signs of the generalized Inami--Lim functions $F_{tt}$ and $X$ relevant for $(\epsilon_K,\Delta M_{d,s})$ and $K \to \pi\nu\overline{\nu}$, respectively. In the models in which $F_{tt}$ has a sign opposite to the one in the Standard Model, i.e. $F_{tt}<0$, the data for $(\epsilon_K, \Delta M_{d,s})$ imply an absolute lower bound on the $B_d\to\psi K_{S}$ CP asymmetry $a_{\psi K_S}$ of 0.69, which is substantially stronger than 0.42 arising in the case of $F_{tt}>0$. An important finding of this paper is the observation that for given $Br(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\overline{\nu})$ and $a_{\psi K_S}$ only two values for $Br(K_{L}\to\pi^0\nu\overline{\nu})$, corresponding to the two signs of $X$, are possible in the full class of MFV models, independently of any new parameters arising in these models. This provides a powerful test for this class of models. Moreover, we derive absolute lower and upper bounds on $Br(K_{L}\to\pi^0\nu\overline{\nu})$ as functions of $Br(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\overline{\nu})$. Using the present experimental upper bounds on $Br(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\overline{\nu})$ and $|V_{ub}/V_{cb}|$, we obtain the absolute upper bound $Br(K_{L}\to\pi^0\nu\overline{\nu})< 7.1 \cdot 10^{-10}$ (90% C.L.).

I review recent estimates of the non-perturbative hadronic vacuum polarization contributions. Since these at present can only be evaluated in terms of experimental data of limited precision, the related uncertainties pose a serious limitation in our ability to make precise predictions. Besides e+e- - annihilation data also tau decay spectra can help to get better predictions. Here, it is important to account for all possible iso-spin violations in tau - decay spectra, from which e+e- cross sections may be obtained by an iso-spin rotation. The observed 10% discrepancy in the region above the rho may be understood as a so far unaccounted iso-spin breaking effect.

We compute the cross section for leptoproduction of the real photon off the nucleon, which is sensitive to the deeply virtual Compton scattering amplitude with power accuracy. Our considerations go beyond the leading twist and involve the complete analysis in the twist-three approximation. We discuss consequences of the target and lepton beam polarizations for accessing the generalized parton distributions from experimental measurements of the azimuthal angular dependence of the final state photon or nucleon. We introduce several sets of asymmetries, defined as Fourier moments with respect to the azimuthal angle, which allow for a clear separation of the twist-two and -three sectors. Relying on a simple ansatz for the generalized parton distributions, we give quantitative estimates for azimuthal and spin asymmetries, discuss the uncertainties of these predictions brought in by radiative corrections, and compare them with experimental data as well as other theoretical expectations. Furthermore, we derive a general parametrization of the DVCS amplitudes in the region of small Bjorken variable.

We develop a relativistic quark model for pion structure, which incorporates the non-trivial structure of the vacuum of Quantum Chromodynamics as modelled by instantons. Pions are boundstates of quarks and the strong quark-pion vertex is determined from an instanton induced effective lagrangian. The interaction of the constituents of the pion with the external electromagnetic field is introduced in gauge invariant form. The parameters of the model, i.e., effective instanton radius and constituent quark masses, are obtained from the vacuum expectation values of the lowest dimensional quark and gluon operators and the low-energy observables of the pion. We apply the formalism to the calculation of the pion form factor by means of the isovector nonforward parton distributions and find agreement with the experimental data.

We introduce the representation on one unitarity triangle of the constraints resulting (1) from the interpretation of solar and atmospheric neutrino data in terms of oscillations, and (2) from the search for neutrinoless double beta decay. We show its use for the study of a nearly degenerate neutrino spectrum. The representation shows clearly the particular cases when the neutrinoless double beta decay rate can (or cannot) be small, that is: when the connection of the decay rate with the neutrino spectrum is less (or more) direct. These cases turn out to depend crucially on the scenario of oscillation (MSW solutions, vacuum oscillations, averaged oscillations), and in particular on the size of the mixing between the electron neutrino and the neutrino state giving rise to atmospheric neutrino oscillations.

We evaluate the entropy in the small-$x$ region and compare with the quantum von Neumann entropy. We also discuss the growth of entropy at small-$x$ and argue that it eventually saturates due to the Pomeron loop effect.

Exact analytical forms of solutions for Dispersion Relations for Amplitudes and Dispersion Relations for Slopes are applied in the analysis of pp and $\rm {p \bar p}$ scattering data in the forward range at energies below $\sqrt(s)\approx 30 \GeV$. As inputs for the energy dependence of the imaginary part, use is made of analytic form for the total cross sections and for parameters of the $t$ dependence of the imaginary parts, with exponential and linear factors. A structure for the $t$ dependence of the real amplitude is written, with slopes $B_R$ and a linear factor $\rho-\mu_R t$ that allows compatibility of the data with the predictions from dispersion relations for the derivatives of the real amplitude at the origin. A very precise description is made of all $d\sigma/dt$ data, with regular energy dependence of all quantities. It is shown that a revision of previous calculations of total cross sections, slopes and $\rho$ parameters in the literatures is necessary, and stressed that only determinations based on $d\sigma/dt$ data covering sufficient $t$ range using appropriate forms of amplitudes can be considered as valid.

We examine the phenomenological consequences of a supersymmetric bulk in the scenario of large extra dimensions. We assume supersymmetry is realized in the bulk and study the interactions of the resulting bulk gravitino Kaluza-Klein (KK) tower of states, with supersymmetry breaking on the brane inducing a light mass for the zero-mode gravitino. We derive the 4-d effective theory, including the couplings of the bulk gravitino KK states to fermions and their scalar superpartners. The virtual exchange of the gravitino KK states in selectron pair production in polarized \epem collisions is then examined. We find that the leading order operator for this exchange is dimension six, in contrast to that of bulk graviton KK exchange which induces a dimension eight operator at lowest order. The resulting kinematic distributions for selectron production are dramatically altered from those in D=4 supersymmetric scenarios, and can lead to a enormous sensitivity to the fundamental higher dimensional Planck scale, of order $20-25\times \sqrt s$.

Both electroweak and QCD corrections are large, amounting to 10% or even more in specific kinematic regions.

There are few robust solutions to the doublet-triplet splitting problem in supersymmetric GUT theories. One of the more promising solutions is the Higgs as pseudo-Goldstone boson mechanism. In its minimal implementation, such a solution places an additional restriction on the parameter space of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. A testable consequence of this constraint is an equation for $\tan \beta$. We present this restriction and study its solutions in order to constrain the allowed parameter space. Thus the assumptions on the GUT scale Higgs sector should yield testable predictions for weak scale physics. If the SUSY parameters are measured then it should be possible to check the predictions, yielding insight into GUT scale physics.

We explore the potential of the $e^+ e^-$ colliders to discover dark matter and determine its properties such as mass and the spin. For this purpose we study spin zero and spin one-half cases of dark matter, $D$ which belongs to $SU(2)$ weak doublet and therefore has the charged doublet partner, $D^+$. For the case of scalar dark matter we chose Inert Doublet Model, while for the case of fermion dark matter we suggest the new minimal fermion dark matter model with only three parameters. We choose two benchmarks for the models under study which provide the correct amount of observed DM relic density and consistent with the current DM searches. We focus on the particular process $e^+ e^- \to D^+ D^- \to D D W^+ W^- \to DD(q \bar{q})(\mu^\pm\nu)$ at 500 GeV ILC collider which gives rise to the "di-jet +$\mu$ + missing $E_T$" signature and study it at the level of fast detector simulation, taking into account Bremsstrahlung and ISR effects. We have found that two kinematical observables -- the energy of the muon, $E_\mu$, and the angular distribution of $W$-boson, reconstructed from di-jet, $\cos\theta_{jj}$ are very powerful in determination of DM mass and spin, respectively. In particular we have demonstrated that in case of fermion DM, the masses can be measured with a few percent accuracy already at 500 fb$^{-1}$ integrated luminosity. At the same time, the scalar DM model which has about an order of magnitude lower signal, requires about factor of 40 higher luminosity to reach the same accuracy in the mass measurement. We have found that one can distinguish fermion and scalar DM scenarios with about 2 ab$^{-1}$ total integrated luminosity or less without using the information on the cross sections for benchmarks under study.

We describe electroweak strings and their ability to carry Chern-Simons number. Certain string configurations, for any $\theta_W$, carry Chern-Simons number equal to that of the sphaleron and we conjecture that such strings are ``extended sphalerons''. The production of electroweak strings during the phase transition is discussed and it is suggested that electroweak strings could survive long enough for them to play a role in baryogenesis. Finally the issue of magnetic field generation during the electroweak phase transition is addressed and several points not discussed in the existing literature are clarified. A connection is made between electroweak strings and magnetic fields produced at the phase transition. (Based on the talk presented at the NATO workshop on ``Electroweak Physics and the Early Universe'', in Sintra, March 1994)

A recent study by Wang {\it et al.}(arXiv:2309.01417) proposed a novel connection between the nature of the parton distribution function (PDF) and the characteristics of its moments. In this study, we apply these findings to analyze the evolution of the pion valence quark PDF, garnering valuable qualitative insights. Firstly, we validate the non-negativity and continuity of the PDF across a wide range of scales, indicating the logical consistency of our chosen evolution scheme. Subsequently, we examine the unimodality of both the PDF and its transformed counterpart, the xPDF, i.e., the parton distribution function multiplied by the momentum fraction. We observe a smooth evolution of the peak position of the xPDF towards the small-$x$ region with increasing scale, while intriguingly, the PDF undergoes a phase of bimodal competition as the energy scale evolves.

We present a flavor model with the $S_3$ modular invariance in the framework of SU(5) GUT. The $S_3$ modular forms of weights $2$ and $4$ give the quark and lepton mass matrices with a common complex parameter, the modulus $\tau$. The GUT relation of down-type quarks and charged leptons is imposed by the VEV of adjoint 24-dimensional Higgs multiplet in addition to the VEVs of $5$ and $\bar 5$ Higgs multiples of SU(5). The observed CKM and PMNS mixing parameters as well as the mass eigenvalues are reproduced properly. We discuss the leptonic CP phase and the effective mass of the neutrinoless double beta decay with the sum of neutrino masses.

In the deconfined regime of a non-Abelian gauge theory at nonzero temperature, previously it was argued that if a (gauge invariant) source is added to generate nonzero holonomy, that this source must be linear for small holonomy. The simplest example of this is the second Bernoulli polynomial. However, then there is a conundrum in computing the free energy to $\sim g^3$ in the coupling constant $g$, as part of the free energy is discontinuous as the holonomy vanishes. In this paper we investigate two ways of generating the second Bernoulli polynomial dynamically: as a mass derivative of an auxiliary field, and from two dimensional ghosts embedded isotropically in four dimensions. Computing the holonomous hard thermal loop (HHTL) in the gluon self-energy, we find that the limit of small holonomy is only well behaved for two dimensional ghosts, with a free energy which to $\sim g^3$ is continuous as the holonomy vanishes.

The basic ideas of kt-factorization and CCFM parton evolution is discussed. The unintegrated gluon densities, obtained from CCFM fits to the proton structure function data at HERA are used to predict hadronic final state cross sections like jet production at HERA, but also comparisons with recent measurements of heavy quark production at the Tevatron are presented. Finally, the kt-factorization approach is applied to Higgs production at high energy hadron hadron colliders and the transverse momentum spectrum of Higgs production at the LHC is calculated.

Recently, the Belle Collaboration has measured the $\Lambda_c^+ \to \eta \Lambda \pi^+$ decay and reported the $\eta\Lambda$ and $\Lambda\pi^+ $ invariant mass distributions, which show the clear signals of the resonances $\Lambda(1670)$ and $\Sigma(1385)$, respectively. Based on our previous works [Eur. Phys. J. C 76 (2016) 496 and Phys. Rev. D 95 (2017) 074024], we re-analyze this process by considering the $S$-wave $\eta\Lambda$ and $\eta\pi^+$ final state interactions within the chiral unitary approach, which dynamically generate the $\Lambda(1670)$ and $a_0(980)$, respectively. Our results are in good agreement with the Belle measurements, which supports the molecular nature of the $\Lambda(1670)$ and $a_0(980)$. In addition, the $\eta \pi^+$ invariant mass distributions are also computed and a cusp structure of $a_0(980)$ is cleary shown around the $K\bar{K}$ mass threshold.

In this study we present a universal effective action for one-loop matching of all scalar leptoquarks. We use both the Universal One-Loop Effective Action (UOLEA) and covariant diagrams to evaluate the Wilson coefficients directly in the Green basis for up-to dimension-6 operators. On the technical side, we use the newly developed method of evaluating supertraces, to further validate the results stemming from the use of covariant diagrams. As an application, we perform a fully functional matching onto Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) of a model with two scalar leptoquark fields: a weak isospin singlet and a doublet. We demonstrate its use by calculating several observables, such as lepton magnetic and electric dipole moments, neutrino masses, proton decay rate, while we comment upon fine tuning issues in this model. Apart from its phenomenological interest, this model generates the majority of dimension-6 operators and provides an EFT benchmark towards future matching automation.

Charmless 3-body decays of B mesons are studied in the framework of the factorization approach. The nonresonant contributions arising from $B\to P_1P_2$ transitions are evaluated using heavy meson chiral perturbation theory (HMChPT). The momentum dependence of nonresonant amplitudes is assumed to be in the exponential form $e^{-\alpha_{NR}} p_B\cdot(p_i+p_j)}$ so that the HMChPT results are recovered in the soft meson limit $p_i, p_j\to 0$. In addition, we have identified another large source of the nonresonant signal in the matrix elements of scalar densities, e.g. $<K\bar K|\bar ss|0>$, which can be constrained from the decay $\bar B^0\to K_SK_SK_S$ or $B^-\to K^-K_SK_S$. The intermediate vector meson contributions to 3-body decays are identified through the vector current, while the scalar meson resonances are mainly associated with the scalar density. Their effects are described in terms of the Breit-Wigner formalism. Our main results are: (i) All KKK modes are dominated by the nonresonant background. The predicted branching ratios of $K^+K^-K_{S(L)}$, $K^+K^-K^-$ and $K^-K_SK_S$ modes are consistent with the data within errors. (ii) Although the penguin-dominated $B^0\to K^+K^-K_{S}$ decay is subject to a potentially significant tree pollution, its effective $\sin 2\beta$ is very similar to that of the $K_SK_SK_S$ mode. However, direct CP asymmetry of the former, being of order -4%, is more prominent than the latter. (iii) For $B\to K\pi\pi$ decays, we found sizable nonresonant contributions in $K^-\pi^+\pi^-$ and $\bar K^0\pi^+\pi^-$ modes, in agreement with the Belle measurements but larger than the BaBar result.

We present the analysis of CP-violating effects in non-diagonal chargino pair production in e+e- collisions. These effects appear only at the one-loop level.

We consider the scattering of the brane fields due to t-channel massive graviton exchanges in the Randall-Sundrum model. The eikonal amplitude is analytically calculated and both differential and total neutrino-nucleon cross sections are estimated. The event rate of quasi-horizontal air showers induced by cosmic neutrinos, which can be detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory, is presented for two different fluxes of cosmogenic neutrinos.

We describe the internal composition of a topologically stable monopole carrying a magnetic charge of $6\pi/e$ that arises from the spontaneous breaking of the trinification symmetry $SU(3)_c\times SU(3)_L\times SU(3)_R$ ($G$). Since this monopole carries no color magnetic charge, a charge of $6\pi/e$ is required by the Dirac quantization condition. The breaking of $G$ to the Standard Model occurs in a number of steps and yields the desired topologically stable monopole ("magnetic baryon"), consisting of three confined monopoles. The confined monopoles ("magnetic quarks") each carry a combination of Coulomb magnetic flux and magnetic flux tubes, and therefore they do not exist as isolated states. We also display a more elaborate configuration ("fang necklace") composed of these magnetic quarks. In contrast to the $SU(5)$ monopole which is superheavy and carries a magnetic charge of $2\pi/e$ as well as color magnetic charge, the trinification monopole may have mass in the TeV range, in which case it may be accessible at the LHC and its planned upgrades.

The latest experimental progress have established three kinds of neutrino oscillations with three mixing angles measured to rather high precision. There is still one parameter, i.e., the CP violating phase, missing in the neutrino mixing matrix. It is shown that a replay between different parametrizations of the mixing matrix can determine the full neutrino mixing matrix together with the CP violating phase. From the maximal CP violation observed in the original Kobayashi-Maskawa (KM) scheme of quark mixing matrix, we make an Ansatz of maximal CP violation in the neutrino mixing matrix. This leads to the prediction of all nine elements of the neutrino mixing matrix and also a remarkable prediction of the CP violating phase $\delta_{\rm CK}=(85.48^{+4.67(+12.87)}_{-1.80(-4.90)})^\circ$ within $1\sigma (3\sigma)$ range from available experimental information. We also predict the three angles of the unitarity triangle corresponding to the quark sector for confronting with the CP-violation related measurements.

We investigate the effect of high order radiative corrections in unpolarized electron proton elastic scattering and compare with the calculations at lowest order, which are usually applied to experimental data. Particular attention is devoted to the $\epsilon$ dependence of radiative corrections, which is directly related to the electric proton form factor. We consider in particular the effects of the interference terms for soft and hard photon emission. Both quadratic amplitude describing the collinear emission along the scattered electron as well as the interference with the amplitudes of emission from the initial electron and the emission from protons are important in leading and next to leading approximation and they may compensate in particular kinematical conditions.

The potential of muon colliders to study a low-energy supersymmetry is addressed in the framework of the minimal supergravity model, whose predictions are first briefly surveyed. Foremost among the unique features of a muon collider is s-channel production of Higgs bosons, by which Higgs boson masses, widths, and couplings can be precisely measured to test the predictions of supersymmetry. Measurements of the threshold region cross sections of W^+ W^-, t t-bar, Zh, chargino pairs, slepton and sneutrino pairs will precisely determine the corresponding masses and test supersymmetric radiative corrections. At the high-energy frontier a 3 to 4 TeV muon collider is ideally suited to study heavy scalar supersymmetric particles.

It is known that some high-energy processes have a $t$-channel singularity in the physical region. In this paper we show that this singularity is regularized if one takes into account the finite sizes of the colliding beams, i.e. the realistic situation which takes place at high--energy colliders. On this way we obtain the finite cross section which is linear proportional to the transverse sizes of the colliding beams. As an application of the above result we study the production of the single $W$ boson at $\mu^+\mu^-$ colliders in the reaction $\mu ^- \mu ^+ \to e \bar \nu _e W^+ $. For the total energy $\sqrt {s}\approx 95$ GeV and reasonable parameters of the muon beams the ``beam--size '' dependent part of the cross section for this reaction is of the order of the standard cross section of the $\mu ^- \mu ^+ \to \mu^- \bar \nu _{\mu} W^+ $ process.

Accelerated charges emit electromagnetic radiation and the consequent energy-momentum loss alters their trajectory. This phenomenon is known as radiation reaction and the Landau-Lifshitz (LL) equation is the classical equation of motion of the electron, which takes into account radiation-reaction effects in the electron trajectory. By using the analytical solution of the LL equation in an arbitrary plane wave, we compute the analytical expression of the classical emission spectrum via nonlinear Thomson scattering including radiation-reaction effects. Both the angularly-resolved and the angularly-integrated spectra are reported, which are valid in an arbitrary plane wave. Also, we have obtained a phase-dependent expression of the electron dressed mass, which includes radiation-reaction effects. Finally, the corresponding spectra within the locally constant field approximation have been derived.

The deuteron transverse charge density $\rho_C(b)$ is the two-dimensional Fourier transform of its charge form factor in the impact space. We show that different parameterizations of the charge form factors provide different $\rho_C(b)$, in particular at the central value of impact parameter ($b=0$), although all the parameterizations can well reproduce the form factors in the region of small $Q^2$. In addition, we also check the explicit contributions from the different coordinate intervals of the deuteron wave function to its root-mean-square radius.

Nuclear parton distributions are studied in a parton model with rescaling and recombination mechanisms. Parton x distributions are first calculated at Q^2=1 GeV^2 by the model, and they are evolved to larger Q^2 in order to be compared with various F_2 data. The experimental shadowing is explained by the parton-recombination effects. Then, the modification of sea-quark and gluon distributions is investigated. We show x and Q^2 dependent results of the ratios S_A/S_D and G_A/G_D. They indicate significant shadowing at small x and large ratios in the medium-x region. Our theoretical results should be tested by future experiments, for example, at RHIC (Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider). Furthermore, our studies are important for finding a signature of the quark-gluon plasma in heavy-ion reactions. We also indicate that nuclear effects in the deuteron should be taken into account for finding the accurate F_2 structure function of the neutron.

We point out that using the $E_T^\mathrm{miss}$ distribution significantly increases the sensitivity of this search. We find the higgsinos up to 110 (210) GeV can be excluded with $139~(300)~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ data. The full data of the HL-LHC will exclude (discover) the higgsinos up to 520 (280) GeV.

We study a new nucleon resonance from eta photoproduction, which was observed at sqrt{s}=1675 MeV with a narrow decay width (~10 MeV) by the Tohoku LNS group as well as the GRAAL collaboration. Using an effective Lagrangian approach, we compute differential cross sections for the eta photoproduction. In addition to N*(1675,1/2+-,3/2+-), we employ six other nucleon resonances, i.e. N*(1520,1535,1650,1675,1710,1720) and vector meson exchanges which are the most relevant ones to this reaction process. As a result, we can reproduce the GRAAL data qualitatively well and observe obvious isospin asymmetry between the transition magnetic moments of N*(1675): mu_{gamma nn*} >> mu_{gamma pp*}, which indicates that the newly found nucleon resonance may be identified as a non-strange pentaquark state.

Employing the standard hard-scattering approach (HSA) in conjunction with the running-coupling (RC) method, the latter joined with the infrared-renormalon calculus, we compute power-suppressed corrections $\sim 1/Q^{2n}, n=1, 2,...$ to the massless $\eta^{\prime}$ meson - virtual gluon transition form factor (FF) $Q^2F_{\eta ^{\prime}g^{*}g^{*}}(Q^2,\omega)$. Contributions to the form factor from the quark and gluon components of the $\eta^{\prime}$ meson are taken into account. Analytic expressions for the FF's $F_{\eta^{\prime}gg^{*}}(Q^2,\omega=\pm 1)$ and $F_{\eta^{\prime}g^{*}g^{*}}(Q^2,\omega=0)$ are also presented, as well as Borel transforms $B[Q^{2}F_{\eta^{\prime}g^{*}g^{*}}](u)$ and resummed expressions.

Employing the standard hard-scattering approach (HSA) in conjunction with the running-coupling (RC) method, the latter joined with the infrared-renormalon calculus, we compute power-suppressed corrections $\sim 1/Q^{2n}, n=1, 2,...$ to the massless $\eta^{\prime}$ meson - virtual gluon transition form factor (FF) $Q^2F_{\eta ^{\prime}g^{*}g^{*}}(Q^2,\omega)$. Contributions to the form factor from the quark and gluon components of the $\eta^{\prime}$ meson are taken into account. Analytic expressions for the FF's $F_{\eta^{\prime}gg^{*}}(Q^2,\omega=\pm 1)$ and $F_{\eta^{\prime}g^{*}g^{*}}(Q^2,\omega=0)$ are also presented, as well as Borel transforms $B[Q^{2}F_{\eta^{\prime}g^{*}g^{*}}](u)$ and resummed expressions. It is shown that except for $\omega=\pm 1, 0$, the Borel transform contains an infinite number of infrared renormalon poles. It is demonstrated that in the explored range of the total gluon virtuality $1 \rm {GeV}^{2} \leq Q^2 \leq 25 \rm {GeV}^{2}$, power corrections found with the RC method considerably enhance the FF $F_{\eta^{\prime}g^{*}g^{*}}(Q^{2}, \omega)$ relative to results obtained only in the context of the standard HSA with a ``frozen'' coupling.

We investigate the little hierarchy between Z boson mass and the SUSY breaking scale in the context of landscape of electroweak symmetry breaking vacua. We consider the radiative symmetry breaking and found that the scale where the electroweak symmetry breaking conditions are satisfied and the average stop mass scale is preferred to be very close to each other in spite of the fact that their origins depend on different parameters of the model. If the electroweak symmetry breaking scale is fixed at about 1 TeV by the supersymmetry model parameters then the little hierarchy seems to be preferred among the electroweak symmetry breaking vacua. We characterize the little hierarchy by a probability function and the mSUGRA model is used as an example to show the 90% and 95% probability contours in the experimentally allowed region. We also investigate the size of the Higgsino mass by considering the distribution of electroweak symmetry breaking scale.

The Georgi-Machacek Model allows for a large triplet vacuum expectation value (vev) with a custodial symmetric scalar potential. This manifestly leads to large charged Higgs coupling to SM fermions thus enhancing the detection probability of the model at the Large hadron collider. We show that the latest bound from LHC searches on singly charged Higgs scalar decaying to top and bottom quark restricts the triplet vev from above. We demonstrate that the combined limit from theoretical constraints and the latest Higgs data together with this charged Higgs bound can already curb the model parameter space significantly. Further, we propose the charged Higgs decaying to $W^{\pm}$ boson and a SM-like Higgs as a prospective channel to probe the yet unbounded model parameter space at the future run of the LHC. A simple cut-based analysis for this channel has been made showing the parameter region that can be probed with $5\sigma$ significance at the high luminosity LHC run.

Using data from atmospheric neutrino mixing, and a simple functional form for mixing angles, the absolute values of three neutrino masses are calculated: $m_3\cong 5.37\times 10^{-2} eV$, $m_2\cong 1.94\times 10^{-2} eV$, $m_1\cong 1.46\times 10^{-2} eV$. The quantities relevant for solar neutrino mixing are calculated: $(m_2^2-m_1^2) \cong 1.63\times 10^{-4} eV^2$, with non-maximal mixing $\tan^2\theta_\sol \cong 0.56$. The analysis gives a suggestion of a dynamical origin for the empirical, large CP-violating phase associated with an intrinsically, very small mixing angle in the quark sector.

Assuming that axiomatic local field theory results hold for hadron scattering, Andr\'e Martin and S. M. Roy recently obtained absolute bounds on the D-wave below threshold for pion-pion scattering and thereby determined the scale of the logarithm in the Froissart bound on total cross sections in terms of pion mass only. Previously, Martin proved a rigorous upper bound on the inelastic cross-section $\sigma_{inel}$ which is one-fourth of the corresponding upper bound on $\sigma_{tot}$, and Wu, Martin,Roy and Singh improved the bound by adding the constraint of a given $\sigma_{tot}$. Here we use unitarity and analyticity to determine, without any high energy approximation, upper bounds on energy averaged inelastic cross sections in terms of low energy data in the crossed channel. These are Froissart-type bounds without any unknown coefficient or unknown scale factors and can be tested experimentally. Alternatively, their asymptotic forms,together with the Martin-Roy absolute bounds on pion-pion D-waves below threshold, yield absolute bounds on energy-averaged inelastic cross sections. E.g. for $\pi^0 \pi^0$ scattering, defining $\sigma_{inel}=\sigma_{tot} -\big (\sigma^{\pi^0 \pi^0 \rightarrow \pi^0 \pi^0} + \sigma^{\pi^0 \pi^0 \rightarrow \pi^+ \pi^-} \big )$,we show that for c.m. energy $\sqrt{s}\rightarrow \infty $, $\bar{\sigma}_{inel }(s,\infty)\equiv s\int_{s} ^{\infty } ds'\sigma_{inel }(s')/s'^2 \leq (\pi /4) (m_{\pi })^{-2} [\ln (s/s_1)+(1/2)\ln \ln (s/s_1) +1]^2$ where $1/s_1= 34\pi \sqrt{2\pi }\>m_{\pi }^{-2} $ . This bound is asymptotically one-fourth of the corresponding Martin-Roy bound on the total cross section, and the scale factor $s_1$ is one-fourth of the scale factor in the total cross section bound. The average over the interval (s,2s) of the inelastic $\pi^0 \pi^0 $cross section has a bound of the same form with $1/s_1$ replaced by $1/s_2=2/s_1 $.

Taking proton as an ensemble of quark-gluon Fock states and using the principle of detailed balance, we construct a simple statistical model for parton distribution of proton. The recent observed Bjorken-$x$ dependent light flavor sea quark asymmetry $\bar{d}(x)-\bar{u}(x)$ can be well reproduced by Monte Carlo simulation as a pure statistical effect.

If the axion exists and if the initial axion field value is uncorrelated at causally disconnected points, then it should be possible to predict the efficiency of cosmological axion production, relating the axionic dark matter density to the axion mass. The main obstacle to making this prediction is correctly treating the axion string cores. We develop a new algorithm for treating the axionic string cores correctly in 2+1 dimensions. When the axionic string cores are given their full physical string tension, axion production is about twice as efficient as in previous simulations. We argue that the string network in 2+1 dimensions should behave very differently than in 3+1 dimensions, so this result cannot be simply carried over to the physical case. We outline how to extend our method to 3+1D axion string dynamics.

Taking into account the present knowledge on the coefficient beta_4 of the Callan-Symanzik beta function of quantum chromo-dynamics, we thus derive a five-loop formula for alpha_s^(n_f)(mu) together with appropriate relationships between the asymptotic scale parameters Lambda^(n_f) for different numbers of flavors n_f.

In the littlest Higgs Model with T-parity, we discuss the pair production of the T-odd top partner ($T_{-}$) which decays almost 100\% into the top quark and the lightest T-odd particle ($A_{H}$). Considering the current constraints, we investigate the observability of the T-odd top partner pair production through the process $pp\rightarrow T_{-}\bar{T}_{-}\rightarrow t\bar{t}A_{H}A_{H}$ in final states with two leptons at 14 TeV LHC. We analyze the signal significance and find that the lower limit on the T-odd top partner mass are about 1.04 TeV, 1.14 TeV, 1.23 TeV at $2\sigma$ confidence level at 14TeV LHC with the integrated luminosity of 30 fb$^{-1}$, 100fb$^{-1}$, 300fb$^{-1}$. This lower limit can be raised to about 1.34(1.44) TeV if we use 1000(3000) fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity.

We also comment on the underlying factorization method and assumptions. Detailed calculations show that the slope of the transparency ratio with $Q^2$, and the effective attenuation cross sections extracted from color transparency experiments depend on the $x$ distribuition of wave functions.

In theories with gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking, the scalar tau, (${\tilde \tau_1}$) is the lightest observable superpartner for part of the parameter space. At LEP 2, the production of such a $\tilde \tau_1$ pair and their subsequent decays give rise to a pair of $\tau$ leptons plus missing energy from the unobserved gravitinos. The angular distributions of the $\tau$'s are different from those arising from the production and decay of W pairs, and thus will constitute an interesting signal for supersymmetry. We also consider ${\tilde \tau_1}$ pair production in the complementary part of parameter space where the lightest neutralino is lighter than the $\tilde \tau_1$.

In the past, it was believed that one cannot obtain clean weak-phase information from the measurement of CP-violating asymmetries in 3-body B decays. Recently it was shown that this is not true -- by expressing the decay amplitudes in terms of diagrams and using Dalitz plots, one can resolve all the difficulties and cleanly extract weak phases. In this talk I describe how this is done, and present preliminary results on the measurement of gamma using the decays B -> K pi pi and B -> K Kbar K.

All the next-to-leading order results on Altarelli-Parisi splitting functions have been obtained in the literature either by using the operator product expansion method or by making use of the Curci Furmanski Petronzio (CFP) formalism in conjunction with light-like axial gauge, principal value (PV) prescription and dimensional regularization. In this paper we present the calculation of some non-singlet two-loop anomalous dimensions within the CFP formalism using light-cone axial gauge with Mandelstam-Leibbrandt (ML) prescription. We make a detailed comparison between the intermediate results given by the (PV) versus the (ML) method. We point out that the (ML) method is completely consistent and avoids the ``phenomenological rules'' used in the case of (PV) regularization.

We consider $b \to s \gamma$ decays in the Left-Right Symmetric Model. Values of observables sensitive to chiral structure such as the $\Lambda$ polarization in the $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ decays and the mixing-induced CP asymmetries in the $B_{d,s} \to M^0 \gamma$ decays can deviate in the LRSM significantly from the SM values. The combined analysis of $P_\Lambda$ and $A_{CP}$ as well as ${\cal BR}(b \to s \gamma)$ can be used to determine the model parameters.

The mechanism of resonance enhancement of neutrino oscillations in matter and some critical remarks to this mechanism are considered. Using of this resonance mechanism is very important to examine the model of electroweak interactions since the processes induced by this mechanism grow multiply. In contrast to the electromagnetic and strong interactions in weak interactions, $P$-parity is violated therefore a problem of mass generations in the weak interactions is considered (the interaction must be left-right symmetric for mass generations). It is concluded that a possibility of mass generation in the framework of the weak interactions is not proved. The present experimental status of this resonance mechanism is considered and it is done conclusion that this effect has no clear experimental confirmation. For this purpose it is necessary to fulfil precision experiments with solar neutrinos and the neutrinos passed through the Earth matter.

The production of hidden-bottom pentaquark $P_{b}$ states via $\gamma p$ and $\pi ^{-}p$ scatterings is studied within an effective Lagrangian approach and the vector-meson-dominance mechnism. For the $P_{b}$ production in the process $\gamma p\rightarrow \Upsilon p$, the dipole Pomeron model is employed to calculate the background contribution, and the experimental data can be well described. For the process $\pi ^{-}p\rightarrow \Upsilon n$, the Reggeized $t$-channel with $\pi $ exchange is considered as the main background for the $P_{b}$ production. Near the threshold, two-peak structure from the states $P_{b (11080)$ and $P_{b}(11125)$ can be observed if energy bin width is chosen as 0.01 GeV, and the same result is obtained in the $\pi ^{-}p$ scattering. Moreover, by taking the branching ratio of Br$[{P_{b}\rightarrow \pi N}]\simeq 0.05\%$, the numerical result shows that the average value of cross section from the $P_{b}(11080)$ state produced in the $\gamma p$ or $\pi ^{-}p$ scattering reaches at least 0.1 nb with a bin of 0.1 GeV. Even if we reduce the branching ratio of the $P_{b}$ state into $\pi N$ channel by one order, the theoretical average of the cross section from $P_{b}(11080)$ production in $\pi ^{-}p$ scattering can reach the order of 0.01 nb with a bin of 0.1 GeV, which means that the signal can still be clearly distinguished from the background. The experimental measurements and studies on the hidden-bottom pentaquark $P_{b}$ state production in the $\gamma p $ or $\pi ^{-}p$ scattering near-threshold energy region around $W\simeq 11$ GeV are strongly suggested, which are accessible at COMPASS and JPARC. Particularly, the result of the photoproduction suggests that it is very promising to observe the hidden-bottom pentaquark at proposed EicC facility in China.

Recent discovery of neutrino large mixings implies the large mixings in the diagonalizing matrices of $\bf\bar 5$ fields in $SU(5)$ grand unified theory (GUT), while the diagonalizing matrices of $\bf 10$ fields of $SU(5)$ are expected to have small mixings like Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix. We calculate the predictions of flavor changing nucleon decays (FCND) in $SU(5)$, $SO(10)$, and $E_6$ GUT models which have the above features for mixings. We found that FCND can be the main decay mode especially for GUT with higher rank unification group.

We propose a minimal and self-contained model in non-compact flat five dimensions which localizes the Standard Model (SM) on a domain wall. Localization of gauge fields is achieved by the condensation of Higgs field via a Higgs dependent gauge kinetic term in five-dimensional Lagrangian. The domain wall connecting vacua with unbroken gauge symmetry drives the Higgs condensation which provides both electroweak symmetry breaking and gauge field localization at the same time. Our model predicts higher-dimensional interactions $|H|^{2n}(F_{\mu\nu})^2$ in the low-energy effective theory. This leads to two expectations: The one is a new tree-level contribution to $H \to \gamma\gamma$ ($H \to gg$) decay whose signature is testable in future LHC experiment. The other is a finite electroweak monopole which may be accessible to the MoEDAL experiment. Interactions of translational Nambu-Goldstone boson is shown to satisfy a low-energy theorem.

Analytic results are presented for the probability of detecting an electron neutrino after passage through a resonant oscillation region. If the electron neutrino is produced far above the resonance density, this probability is simply given by $\langle \,P_{\nu_e} \, \rangle \approx \sin^2 \theta_0+ P_\text{x} \cos 2 \theta_0$, where $\theta_0$ is the vacuum mixing angle. The probability is averaged over the production as well as the detection positions of the neutrino and $P_\text{x} $ is the Landau-Zener transition probability between adiabatic states. Finally, this result is applied to resonance oscillations within the solar interior.

NMSSM with a light singlet-like scalar and strongly suppressed couplings to $b$ and $\tau$ is investigated. It is shown that in such a scenario the singlet-like scalar to diphoton signal can be larger than for the SM Higgs for a wide range of masses between 60 and 110 GeV, in agreement with all the LEP and LHC data. Enhancement of the singlet-like scalar to diphoton signal is correlated with positive correction to the SM-like Higgs mass from mixing between SM-like Higgs and the singlet. It is also shown that the couplings to $b$ and $\tau$ and, in consequence, branching ratios of the SM-like Higgs are anti-correlated with those of the singlet-like scalar. If the singlet-like scalar to diphoton signal is enhanced, the signal strengths of the 125 GeV Higgs in the diphoton and $WW^*/ZZ^*$ channels are predicted to be smaller than for the SM Higgs.

The first lattice result from the RBC and UKQCD Collaborations and improved perturbative calculations of $\varepsilon^{\prime}_K / \varepsilon_K$ have implied that the Standard-Model (SM) expectation deviates from measured values at the $2.8\,\sigma$ level. Since $\varepsilon^{\prime}_K / \varepsilon_K$ comes from $CP$-violating FCNC and is significantly suppressed in the SM, the discrepancy can be explained easily in several new physics (NP) models. In this contribution, it is shown that correlations with the other rare decays, especially $K\to \pi \nu \overline{\nu}$ and $K_S \to \mu^+ \mu^-$, are crucial for discrimination of the NP models. These channels can be probed precisely in the future by the NA62 and KOTO experiments for $K\to \pi \nu \overline{\nu}$ and LHCb experiment for $K_S \to \mu^+ \mu^-$.

It is found that the SELEX measurements are excellently incorporated in the unified picture for hadron spectra. Our analysis shows that the measured values for the masses of the SELEX state exactly coincide with the calculated masses of the states living in the corresponding KK towers. We also found quite a natural but rather model dependent explanation of the decay pattern for the SELEX state being dominated by the $D_s^+\eta$ decay mode.

Various new physics models, e.g., theories of compositeness, can accommodate the color singlet excited leptons that interact with the leptons, quarks, leptoquarks, etc. A particular type of excited lepton, which at low energies interacts with the Standard Model fermions mainly through the four-fermion coupling to lepton and quark-antiquark (or lepton-antilepton) pair, we call leptomeson. These new particles may contribute to variety of the experimental anomalies such as the discrepancy in the muon g-2. We propose that the leptomesons can generate also the baryon asymmetry that explains the imbalance in ordinary matter and antimatter in the observable universe. We consider the two types of scenarios for this baryogenesis via leptogenesis to occur from either leptomeson oscillations or decays. Both possibilities do not contradict to the small masses of the observable neutrinos and the proton stability. Moreover they can be relevant for the near future collider experiments and do not suffer from the gravitino problem.

Aspects of a flavor-changing W' model with right-handed couplings are addressed in this paper in light of Tevatron and LHC data. Our fit to the Tevatron top-quark forward-backward asymmetry and the tt_bar inclusive cross section includes higher-order loop effects in the effective interaction. The higher order corrections change the best fit value of the W' effective coupling strength as a function of the W' mass. The consistency of the model is checked against the shape of the tt_bar invariant mass distribution. We use these updated W' parameters to compute the expected contributions from W't associated production and, for the first time, W'W' pair production at the LHC. We do a full Monte Carlo simulation of the tt_bar+X final state, including interference between the tW' induced tt_bar j process and the standard model tt_bar j process. Interference effects are shown to be quantitatively important, particularly when the W' mass is large. The jet multiplicity distribution in tt_bar-jet production at 8 TeV constrains the W' model severely.

The consistency of the model is checked against the shape of the tt_bar invariant mass distribution. We use these updated W' parameters to compute the expected contributions from W't associated production and, for the first time, W'W' pair production at the LHC. We do a full Monte Carlo simulation of the tt_bar+X final state, including interference between the tW' induced tt_bar j process and the standard model tt_bar j process. Interference effects are shown to be quantitatively important, particularly when the W' mass is large. The jet multiplicity distribution in tt_bar-jet production at 8 TeV constrains the W' model severely.

We argue that the increase of the ratio baryon/meson due to the presence of strong colour fields and percolation in ultra-high energy hadronic collisions, helps to explain some of the global features of ultra-high energy cosmic ray cascades at E>10^18 eV and, in particular the observed excess in the number of muons with respect to current models of hadronic interactions. A reasonable agreement with the small value and slope of the average depth of shower maximum Xmax vs shower energy -- as seen in data collected at the Pierre Auger Observatory -- can be obtained with a fast increase of the p-Air production cross-section compatible with the Froissart bound.

In this article, we present the scalar-diquark-scalar-diquark-antiquark type and scalar-diquark-axialvector-diquark-antiquark type pentaquark configurations in the diquark model, and study the masses and pole residues of the $J^P={\frac{1}{2}}^\pm$ hidden-charmed pentaquark states in details with the QCD sum rules by extending our previous work on the $J^P={\frac{3}{2}}^-$ and ${\frac{5}{2}}^{+}$ hidden-charmed pentaquark states. We calculate the contributions of the vacuum condensates up to dimension-10 in the operator product expansion by constructing both the scalar-diquark-scalar-diquark-antiquark type and scalar-diquark-axialvector-diquark-antiquark type interpolating currents. The present predictions of the masses can be confronted to the LHCb experimental data in the future.

We discuss the physics potential of intermediate $L \sim 20 \div 30$ km baseline experiments at reactor facilities, assuming that the solar neutrino oscillation parameters $\Delta m^2_{\odot}$ and $\theta_{\odot}$ lie in the high-LMA solution region. We show that such an intermediate baseline reactor experiment can determine both $\Delta m^2_{\odot}$ and $\theta_{\odot}$ with a remarkably high precision. We perform also a detailed study of the sensitivity of the indicated experiment to $\Delta m^2_{\rm atm}$, which drives the dominant atmospheric $\nu_{\mu}$ ($\bar{\nu}_{\mu}$) oscillations, and to $\theta$ - the neutrino mixing angle limited by the data from the CHOOZ and Palo Verde experiments. We find that this experiment can improve the bounds on $\sin^2\theta$. If the value of $\sin^2\theta$ is large enough, $\sin^2\theta \gtap 0.02$, the energy resolution of the detector is sufficiently good and if the statistics is relatively high, it can determine with extremely high precision the value of $\Delta m^2_{\rm atm}$. We also explore the potential of the intermediate baseline reactor neutrino experiment for determining the type of the neutrino mass spectrum, which can be with normal or inverted hierarchy. We show that the conditions under which the type of neutrino mass hierarchy can be determined are quite challenging, but are within the reach of the experiment under discussion.

We study the chiral phase transition at finite $T$ and $\mu_B$ within the framework of the SU(3) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model. The QCD critical end point (CEP) and the critical line at finite temperature and baryonic chemical potential are investigated: the study of physical quantities, such as the baryon number susceptibility near the CEP, will provide complementary information concerning the order of the phase transition. We also analyze the information provided by the study of the critical exponents around the CEP.

We investigate $\rho$ vector meson production in $ep$ collisions at HERA with leading neutrons in the dipole formalism. The interaction of the dipole and the pion is described in a mixed-space approach, in which the dipole-pion scattering amplitude is given by the Marquet-Peschanski-Soyez saturation model, which is based on the travelling wave solutions of the nonlinear Balitsky-Kovchegov equation. We estimate the magnitude of the absorption effects and compare our results with a previous analysis of the same process in full coordinate space. In contrast with this approach, the present study leads to absorption $K$ factors in the range of those predicted by previous theoretical studies on semi-inclusive processes.

Tension between neutrino masses and gauge coupling unification in natural grand unified theories

The natural grand unified theories solve various problems of the supersymmetric grand unified theory and give realistic quark and lepton mass matrices under the natural assumption that all terms allowed by the symmetry are introduced with O(1) coefficients. However, because of the natural assumption, it is difficult to achieve the gauge coupling unification without tuning, while keeping neutrino masses at realistic values. In this paper, we try to avoid this tension between the neutrino masses and the gauge coupling unification, by introducing suppression factors for several terms. These suppression factors can be understood by approximate symmetries in some of the solutions. We show that one of the most important results in the natural GUT scenario, that the nucleon decay mediated by superheavy gauge fields is enhanced due to smaller unification scale while the nucleon decay mediated by superheavy colored Higgs is suppressed, can change in those models proposed in this paper.

The angular correlation of the electrons emitted in the neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu2\beta$) is presented using a general Lorentz invariant effective Lagrangian for the leptonic and hadronic charged weak currents. We show that the coefficient $K$ in the angular correlation $d\Gamma/d\cos \theta \propto (1-K\cos \theta)$ is essentially independent of the nuclear matrix element models and present its numerical values for the five nuclei of interest ($^{76}{Ge}$, $^{82}{Se}$, $^{100}{Mo}$, $^{130}{Te}$, and $^{136}{Xe}$), assuming that the $0\nu2\beta$-decays in these nuclei are induced solely by a light Majorana neutrino, $\nu_M$. This coefficient varies between $K=0.81$ (for the $^{76}{Ge}$ nucleus) and $K=0.88$ (for the $^{82}{Se}$ and $^{100}{Mo}$ nuclei), calculated taking into account the effects from the nucleon recoil, the $S$ and $P$-waves for the outgoing electrons and the electron mass. Deviation of $K$ from its values derived here would indicate the presence of New Physics (NP) in addition to a light Majorana neutrino, and we work out the angular coefficients in several $\nu_M + {NP}$ scenarios for the $^{76}{Ge}$ nucleus. As an illustration of the correlations among the $0\nu2\beta$ observables (half-life $T_{1/2}$, the coefficient $K$, and the effective Majorana neutrino mass $|< m>|$) and the parameters of the underlying NP model, we analyze the left-right symmetric models, taking into account current phenomenological bounds on the right-handed $W_R$-boson mass and the left-right mixing parameter $\zeta$.

We investigate flavor phenomenology and dark matter in the context of scotogenic model. In this model, the neutrino masses are generated through radiative corrections at one-loop level. Considering the neutrino mixing matrix to be of tri-bimaximal form with additional perturbations to accommodate the recently observed non-zero value of reactor mixing angle $\theta_{13}$, we obtain the relation between various neutrino oscillation parameters and the model parameters. Working in degenerate heavy neutrino mass spectrum, we obtain light neutrino masses obeying normal hierarchy and also study the relic abundance of fermionic dark matter candidate including co-annihilation effects. A viable parameter space is thus obtained, consistent with neutrino oscillation data, relic abundance and various lepton flavor violating decays such as $\ell_\alpha\to\ell_\beta\gamma$ and $\ell_\alpha \to 3 \, \ell_\beta$.

Numerical correlations between fermion masses and mixings could indicate the presence of a flavor symmetry at high energies. In general, the search for these correlations using low-energy data requires an estimate of leading-log radiative corrections. We present a complete analysis of the evolution between the electroweak and the grand unification scales of quark mass parameters in minimal supersymmetric models. We take $M_t=180$ GeV and consider all possible values of $\tan \beta$. We also analize the possibility that the {\it top} and/or the {\it bottom} Yukawa couplings result from an intermediate quasifixed point (QFP) of the equations. We show that the quark mixings of the third family do {\it not} have a QFP behaviour (in contrast to the masses, the renormalization of all the mixings is linear), and we evaluate the low-energy value of $V_{ub}$ which corresponds to $V_{ub}(M_X)=0$. Then we focus on the renormalization-group corrections to {\it (i)} typical relations obtained in models with flavor symmetries at the unification scale and {\it (ii)} a superstring-motivated pattern of quark mass matrices. We show that in most of the models the numerical prediction for $V_{ub}$ can be {\it corrected} in both directions (by varying $\tan\beta$) due to {\it top} or {\it bottom} radiative corrections.

The studies of the electroweak symmetry breaking sector (EWSBS) at $\gamma\gamma$ colliders were considered previously in the loop processes of $\gamma\gamma \to w_Lw_L,\,z_Lz_L$, but they are suffered from the huge $W_T W_T$ and $Z_TZ_T$ backgrounds. Here we present another possible process that involves spectator $W$'s and $W_L$'s, the latter of which are scattered strongly by the interactions of the EWSBS. We also show that this process should be safe from the transverse backgrounds and it can probe the structure of the EWSBS.

The studies of the electroweak symmetry breaking sector (EWSBS) at $\gamma\gamma$ colliders were considered previously in the loop processes of $\gamma\gamma \to w_Lw_L,\,z_Lz_L$, but they are suffered from the huge $W_T W_T$ and $Z_TZ_T$ backgrounds. Here we present another possible process that involves spectator $W$'s and $W_L$'s, the latter of which are scattered strongly by the interactions of the EWSBS. We also show that this process should be safe from the transverse backgrounds and it can probe the structure of the EWSBS.

The hadronic $\kt$-spectrum inside a high energy jet is determined including corrections of relative magnitude $\cO{\sqrt{\alpha_s}}$ with respect to the Modified Leading Logarithmic Approximation (MLLA), in the limiting spectrum approximation (assuming an infrared cut-off $Q_0 =\lqcd$) and beyond ($Q_0\ne\lqcd$). The results in the limiting spectrum approximation are found to be, after normalization, in impressive agreement with measurements by the CDF collaboration. A new integral representation for the "hump-backed" plateau is also reported.

We present a new search for dark matter using planetary atmospheres. We point out that annihilating dark matter in planets can produce ionizing radiation, which can lead to excess production of ionospheric $H_3^+$. We apply this search strategy to the night side of Jupiter near the equator. The night side has zero solar irradiation, and low latitudes are sufficiently far from ionizing auroras, leading to an effectively background-free search. We use Cassini data on ionospheric $H_3^+$ emission collected 3 hours either side of Jovian midnight, during its flyby in 2000, and set novel constraints on the dark matter-nucleon scattering cross section down to about $10^{-38}$ cm$^2$. We also highlight that dark matter atmospheric ionization may be detected in Jovian exoplanets using future high-precision measurements of planetary spectra.

We report a new calculation of the soft-gluon threshold resummation for the Higgs boson pair production in the dominant production mode -- gluon-gluon fusion -- up to the next-to-next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic (N$^3$LL) accuracy. After matching N$^3$LL to the next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N$^3$LO) QCD calculation in the infinite top quark mass approximation, we show that the central values of the inclusive cross sections are quite stable with respect to N$^3$LO, while the conventional renormalisation and factorisation scale uncertainties are reduced by a factor of two, reaching to the subpercent level. Our study further consolidates the good asymptotic perturbative convergence. After combining with the full top-quark mass dependent next-to-leading order QCD results, our most advanced predictions are presented for both the inclusive total cross sections and the differential invariant mass distributions of the Higgs pair.

We present the (two--loop) QCD corrections to the longitudinal and transverse components of the electroweak gauge bosons self--energies for arbitrary momentum transfer and for different internal quark masses. Compact formulae for both the real and imaginary parts are given in the general case as well as in some physically interesting special cases. The dependence on the definition of the quark masses is discussed.

We examine string (vortex) formation at a quench for a weakly-coupled global U(1) theory when the excitation spectrum is non-relativistic. It is so similar to vortex production in the corresponding relativistic plasma as to reinforce arguments for the similarity of vorheptex production in the early universe and in low-temperature many-body physics.

We use a combined analysis of the semileptonic and leptonic branching ratios of the D mesons to constrain scalar leptoquark interactions and charged higgs-like interactions. For the THDM type II, we found that a low mass 6.3GeV < m_{H^+} < 63.1GeV for the charged Higgs is favored at 90% C.L. although at 95% there is still agreement with other constraints. We find for the leptoquark states a more restrictive bound than previous analysis.
