We propose to test CP symmetry in the decay $\jp\to \gamma \phi\phi$, for
which large data sample exists at BESII, and a data sample of $10^{10}$
$J/\psi$'s will be collected with BESIII and CLEO-C program. We suggest some CP
asymmetries in this decay mode for CP test. Assuming that CP violation is
introduced by the electric- and chromo-dipole moment of charm quark, these CP
asymmetries can be predicted by using valence quark models. Our work shows a
possible way to get information about the electric- and chromo-dipole moment of
charm quark, which is little known. Our results show that with the current data
sample of $J/\psi$, electric- and chromo-dipole moment can be probed at order
of $10^{-14}e cm$. In the near future with a $10^{10}$ data sample, these
moments can be probed at order of $10^{-16}e cm$.

The refraction index and matter potential depend on neutrino energy and this
dependence has a resonance character associated to the production of the
mediator in the $s-$channel. For light mediators and light particles of medium
(background) the resonance can be realized at energies accessible to laboratory
experiments. We study properties of the energy dependence of the potential for
different C-asymmetries of background. Interplay of the background potential
and the vacuum term leads to (i) bump in the oscillation probability in the
resonance region, (ii) dip related to the MSW resonance in the background,
(iii) substantial deviation of the effective $\Delta m^2$ above the resonance
from the low energy value, etc. We considered generation of mixing in the
background. Interactions with background shifts the energy of usual MSW
resonance and produces new MSW resonances. Searches of the background effects
allow us to put bounds on new interactions of neutrinos and properties of the
background. We show that explanation of the MiniBooNE excess, as the bump due
to resonance refraction, is excluded.

After reviewing techniques for extracting clean information on CP-violating
phase angles from $B$ decays, we explain the rules for finding decay modes that
can probe the phase angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle. We identify the
more promising of these ``$\gamma$ modes,'' estimate their branching ratios,
and examine the degree to which they are theoretically clean. We then show that
when the quark mixing matrix is not approximated as usual, but is treated
exactly, none of the ``$\gamma$ modes'' actually measures $\gamma$. Rather,
each of them measures $\gamma$ plus some correction. In all modes, the
correction is small enough to be disregarded in first-generation experiments,
but in some of them, it may be large enough to be observed in second-generation
experiments. Our treatment of the $\gamma$ modes calls attention to the fact
that when the quark mixing matrix is treated exactly, there are six unitarity
triangles, rather than just one triangle. However, only four of the angles in
these six triangles are independent. Examining the role played by these four
angles, we discover that, in principle at least, measurements of nothing but
CP-violating asymmetries in $B$ decays are sufficient to determine the entire
quark mixing matrix.

A number of proposals have been put forward for detecting axion dark matter
(DM) with grand unification scale decay constants that rely on the conversion
of coherent DM axions to oscillating magnetic fields in the presence of static,
laboratory magnetic fields. Crucially, such experiments $\unicode{x2013}$
including ABRACADABRA $\unicode{x2013}$ have to-date worked in the limit that
the axion Compton wavelength is larger than the size of the experiment, which
allows one to take a magnetoquasistatic (MQS) approach to modeling the axion
signal. We use finite element methods to solve the coupled
axion-electromagnetism equations of motion without assuming the MQS
approximation. We show that the MQS approximation becomes a poor approximation
at frequencies two orders of magnitude lower than the naive MQS limit.
Radiation losses diminish the quality factor of an otherwise high-$Q$ resonant
readout circuit, though this may be mitigated through shielding and minimizing
lossy materials. Additionally, self-resonances associated with the detector
geometry change the reactive properties of the pickup system, leading to two
generic features beyond MQS: there are frequencies that require an inductive
rather than capacitive tuning to maintain resonance, and the detector itself
becomes a multi-pole resonator at high frequencies. Accounting for these
features, competitive sensitivity to the axion-photon coupling may be extended
well beyond the naive MQS limit.

We study the temperature dependence of the pseudoscalar meson properties in a
relativistic bound-state approach exhibiting the chiral behavior mandated by
QCD. Concretely, we adopt the Dyson-Schwinger approach with a rank-2 separable
model interaction. After extending the model to the strange sector and fixing
its parameters at zero temperature, T=0, we study the T-dependence of the
masses and decay constants of all ground-state mesons in the pseudoscalar
nonet. Of chief interest are $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$. The influence of the QCD
axial anomaly on them is successfully obtained through the Witten-Veneziano
relation at T=0. The same approach is then extended to T>0, using lattice QCD
results for the topological susceptibility. The most conspicuous finding is an
increase of the $\eta^\prime$ mass around the chiral restoration temperature
$T_{\rm Ch}$, which would suggest a suppression of $\eta^\prime$ production in
relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The increase of the $\eta^\prime$ mass may
also indicate that the extension of the Witten-Veneziano relation to finite
temperatures becomes unreliable around and above $T_{\rm Ch}$. Possibilities of
an improved treatment are discussed.

We study the part of the renormalized, cutoff QED light-front Hamiltonian
that does not change particle number. The Hamiltonian contains interactions
that must be treated in second-order bound state perturbation theory to obtain
hyperfine structure. We show that a simple unitary transformation leads
directly to the familiar Breit-Fermi spin-spin and tensor interactions, which
can be treated in degenerate first-order bound-state perturbation theory, thus
simplifying analytic light-front QED calculations. To the order in momenta we
need to consider, this transformation is equivalent to a Melosh rotation. We
also study how the similarity transformation affects spin-orbit interactions.

The heavy quark expansion implemented through an operator product expansion
provides us with a treatment of inclusive decays of beauty and charm hadrons
that is genuinely derived from QCD,though it requires one additional
assumption, namely that of 'local' quark-hadron duality. Subtleties in the
application of factorization to hadronic expectation values are pointed out.
The observed pattern in the charm lifetime ratios is reproduced in a
semi-quantitative manner. The ratio $\tau (\Lambda _b)/\tau (B_d)$ cannot be
pushed significantly below 0.9 -- unless one invokes a new hitherto unknown
paradigm for evaluating baryonic matrix elements. One confidently predicts
$\tau (B^-)$ to exceed $\tau (B_d)$ by several percent only. Failure of those
predictions would force us to pay a hefty theoretical price, namely ultimately
to abandon local duality as a practical concept.

We propose an alternative paradigm to the conjectured Miransky scaling
potentially underlying the physics describing the transition from the
conformally broken to the conformally restored phase when tuning certain
parameters such as the number of flavors in gauge theories. According to the
new paradigm the physical scale and henceforth also the massive spectrum of the
theory jump at the lower boundary of the conformal window. In particular we
propose that a theory can suddenly jump from a Quantum Chromodynamics type
spectrum, at the lower boundary of the conformal window, to a conformal one
without particle interpretation. The jumping scenario, therefore, does not
support a near-conformal dynamics of walking type. We will also discuss the
impact of jumping dynamics on the construction of models of dynamical
electroweak symmetry breaking.

We present an update of the Unitarity Triangle (UT) analysis, within the
Standard Model (SM) and beyond. Within the SM the main novelties are the
inclusion in epsilon_K of the contributions of xi and phi_epsilon \neq \pi/4
pointed out by A.J. Buras and D. Guadagnoli, and an accurate prediction of BR(B
-> tau nu), by using the indirect determination of |V_ub| from the UT fit,
which can be compared to the present experimental result. In the generalization
of the UT analysis to investigate New Physics (NP) effects, the estimate of xi
is more delicate and only the effect of phi_epsilon \neq \pi/4 has been
included. We confirm an hint of NP in the B_s-\bar B_s mixing at the 2.9 sigma
level, which makes a comparison with new experimental data certainly desired.

The flux of neutrinos and photons originating from cosmic ray interactions
with the interstellar medium in the galaxy is calculated based on current
models for high energy particle interactions. The contribution from a possible
dark matter halo of the galaxy is considered. The photon flux gets a
non-trivial attenuation due to interactions with the cosmic background
radiation. The neutrino fluxes are compared with those originating from the
Earth's atmosphere as well as from active galactic nuclei.

We obtain the masses, the electromagnetic properties, and the parton
distribution functions (PDFs) of $\Lambda$, $\Lambda_c$, and their isospin
triplet baryons, i.e, $\Sigma^0$, $\Sigma^+$, $\Sigma^-$ and $\Sigma_c^0$,
$\Sigma_c^+$, $\Sigma_c^{++}$ from a light-front effective Hamiltonian in the
leading Fock sector in the basis light-front quantization framework. The
light-front wave functions of these baryons are given by the eigenstates of the
effective Hamiltonian consisting of a three-dimensional confinement potential
and a one-gluon exchange interaction with fixed coupling. The masses of these
baryons in our approach are in the experimental range while isospin-dependent
mass differences are too small. Meanwhile, the electromagnetic properties are
in agreement with the available experimental data, the lattice QCD simulations,
and the other theoretical calculations. We also present the gluon and the sea
quark PDFs, which we generate dynamically from the QCD evolution of the valence
quark distributions.

The nonlinear evolution equation for the scattering amplitude of colour
dipole off the heavy nucleus is solved in the double logarithmic approximation.
It is found that if the initial parton density in a nucleus is smaller then
some critical value, then the scattering amplitude is a function of one scaling
variable inside the saturation region, whereas if it is greater then the
critical value, then the scaling behaviour breaks down. Dependence of the
saturation scale on the number of nucleons is discussed as well.

Chiral Separation Effect (CSE) for systems that feature spin 3/2 fermions was
considered. For the self-consistent Adler's model with relativistic massless
Rarita-Schwinger fermions (RSA model), we found that the CSE conductivity is
five times larger than for massless Dirac fermions. For a model of four-fold
band crossing in Rarita-Schwinger-Weyl semimetals, in which massless fermions
with quasispin 3/2 exist, we calculated that the CSE conductivity is four times
larger than for Weyl fermions. We show that CSE conductivity for any
multi-degenerate Fermi point in topological semimetals is proportional to its
Chern number and is topologically protected. Along the calculations, we proved
an index theorem that relates Chern number of a Fermi-point and spectral
asymmetry of the corresponding Landau band structure. The assumption that CSE
for any system of chiral fermions is dictated by the corresponding Chern number
is found to be correct for RSA model (and for the Dirac fermions).

The advent of efficient numerical algorithms for the construction of one-loop
amplitudes has played a crucial role in the automation of NLO calculations, and
the development of similar algorithms at two loops is a natural strategy for
NNLO automation. Within a numerical framework the numerator of loop integrals
is usually constructed in four dimensions, and the missing rational terms,
which arise from the interplay of the $(D-4)$-dimensional parts of the loop
numerator with $1/(D-4)$ poles in $D$ dimensions, are reconstructed separately.
At one loop, such rational terms arise only from UV divergences and can be
restored through process-independent local counterterms. In this paper we
investigate the behaviour of rational terms of UV origin at two loops. The main
result is a general formula that combines the subtraction of UV poles with the
reconstruction of the associated rational parts at two loops. This formula has
the same structure as the R-operation, and all poles and rational parts are
described through a finite set of process-independent local counterterms. We
also present a general formula for the calculation of all relevant two-loop
rational counterterms in any renormalisable theory based on one-scale tadpole
integrals. As a first application, we derive the full set of two-loop rational
counterterms for QED in the $R_{\xi}$-gauge.

We discuss homogeneous baryonic matter in the decompactified limit of the
Sakai-Sugimoto model, improving existing approximations based on flat-space
instantons. We allow for an anisotropic deformation of the instantons in the
holographic and spatial directions and for a density-dependent distribution of
arbitrarily many instanton layers in the bulk. Within our approximation, the
baryon onset turns out to be a second-order phase transition, at odds with
nature, and there is no transition to quark matter at high densities, at odds
with expectations from QCD. This changes when we impose certain constraints on
the shape of single instantons, motivated by known features of holographic
baryons in the vacuum. Then, a first-order baryon onset and chiral restoration
at high density are possible, and at sufficiently large densities two instanton
layers are formed dynamically. Our results are a further step towards
describing realistic, strongly interacting matter over a large density regime
within a single model, desirable for studies of compact stars.

Bose-Einstein Correlations in a Fluid Dynamical Scenario for

Using a fluid dynamical scenario for $pp$ scattering at 7 TeV, we compute
correlation functions for $\pi^+\pi^+$ pairs. Femtoscopic radii are extracted
based on three-dimensional parametrizations of the correlation functions. We
study the radii as a function of the transverse momenta of the pairs, for
different multiplicity classes, corresponding to recent experimental results
from ALICE. We find the same decrease of the radii with $k_T$, more and more
pronounced with increasing multiplicity, but absent for the lowest
multiplicities. In the model we understand this as transition from string
expansion (low multiplicity) towards a three-dimensional hydrodynamical
expansion (high multiplicity).

We investigate the possibility of large CP- violating phases in the soft
breaking terms derived in superstring models. The bounds on the electric dipole
moments (EDM's) of the electron and neutron are satisfied through cancellations
occuring because of the structure of the string models. Three general classes
of four-dimensional string models are considered: (i) orbifold
compactifications of perturbative heterotic string theory, (ii) scenarios based
on Ho\v{r}ava-Witten theory, and (iii) Type I string models (Type IIB
orientifolds). Nonuniversal phases of the gaugino mass parameters greatly
facilitate the necessary cancellations among the various contributions to the
EDM's; in the overall modulus limit, the gaugino masses are universal at tree
level in both the perturbative heterotic models and the Ho\v{r}ava-Witten
scenarios, which severely restricts the allowed regions of parameter space.
Nonuniversal gaugino masses do arise at one-loop in the heterotic orbifold
models, providing for corners of parameter space with ${\cal O}(1)$ phases
consistent with the phenomenological bounds. However, there is a possibility of
nonuniversal gaugino masses at tree level in the Type I models, depending on
the details of the embedding of the SM into the D- brane sectors. We find that
in a minimal model with a particular embedding of the Standard Model gauge
group into two D- brane sectors, viable large phase solutions can be obtained
over a wide range of parameter space.

We calculate neutrino emissivities from self-annihilating dark matter
($\chi$) in the dense and hot stellar interior of a (proto)neutron star. Using
a model where dark matter interacts with nucleons in the stellar core through a
pseudoscalar boson ($a$) we find that the neutrino production rates from the
dominant reaction channels $\chi \chi \rightarrow \nu \bar{\nu}$ or $\chi \chi
\rightarrow a a$, with subsequent decay of the mediator $ a \rightarrow \nu
\bar{\nu}$, could locally match and even surpass those of the standard
neutrinos from the modified nuclear URCA processes at early ages. We find that
the emitting region can be localized in a tiny fraction of the star (less than
a few percent of the core volume) and the process can last its entire lifetime
for some cases under study. We discuss the possible consequences of our results
for stellar cooling in light of existing dark matter constraints.

The diffraction dissociation of virtual photons is considered in the
framework of conventional Regge theory. It is shown that the recent HERA data
on large rapidity gap events can be successfully described in terms of the
Pomeron structure function. Using Regge factorization, the latter can be
related to the deuteron structure function. The parameters which relate these
two structure functions are determined from soft hadronic diffraction data. The
size of the shadowing corrections at low x and large Q**2 is also obtained.

We show that neutral current (NC) measurements at neutrino detectors can play
a valuable role in the search for new physics. Such measurements have certain
intrinsic features and advantages that can fruitfully be combined with the
usual well-studied charged lepton detection channels in order to probe the
presence of new interactions or new light states. In addition to the fact that
NC events are immune to uncertainties in standard model neutrino mixing and
mass parameters, they can have small matter effects and superior rates since
all three flavours participate. We also show, as a general feature, that NC
measurements provide access to different combinations of CP phases and mixing
parameters compared to CC measurements at both long and short baseline
experiments. Using the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) as an
illustrative setting, we demonstrate the capability of NC measurements to break

We show that neutral current (NC) measurements at neutrino detectors can play a valuable role in the search for new physics. Such measurements have certain intrinsic features and advantages that can fruitfully be combined with the usual well-studied charged lepton detection channels in order to probe the presence of new interactions or new light states. In addition to the fact that NC events are immune to uncertainties in standard model neutrino mixing and mass parameters, they can have small matter effects and superior rates since all three flavours participate. We also show, as a general feature, that NC measurements provide access to different combinations of CP phases and mixing parameters compared to CC measurements at both long and short baseline experiments. Using the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) as an illustrative setting, we demonstrate the capability of NC measurements to break degeneracies arising in CC measurements, allowing us, in principle, to distinguish between new physics that violates three flavour unitarity and that which does not. Finally, we show that NC measurements can enable us to restrict new physics parameters that are not easily constrained by CC measurements.

We study the type-II first-order electroweak phase transition and dark matter
(DM) phenomenology in both real and complex singlet extensions of SM. In the
real singlet extension with a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry, we show that the
parameter regions favored by the phase transition suffer from strong
constraints from DM direct detection so that only a negligible fraction
($f_{X}\sim 10^{-4}-10^{-5}$) of DM composed of the real singlet scalar can
survive the LUX and XENON1T constraints. In the complex singlet $S$ case, we
impose a $CP$ symmetry $S\to S^{*}$ to the scalar potential. The real component
of $S$ can mix with SM Higgs boson while the imaginary component becomes a DM
candidate due to the protection of the $CP$ symmetry. By taking into account
the current experimental constraints of invisible Higgs decays, Higgs signal
strength measurements, and dark matter detections, we find that there exists a
large parameter space for the type-II electroweak phase transition to occur
while explaining all of the dark matter relic density. We identify a subset of
parameter space that is promising for future experiments, including the
di-Higgs and Higgs signal strength measurements at the HL-LHC and the dark
matter direct detection in the XENONnT project.

A Call for New Physics : The Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment and Lepton

We review how the muon anomalous magnetic moment ($g-2$) and the quest for
lepton flavor violation are intimately correlated. Indeed the decay $\mu \to e
\gamma$ is induced by the same amplitude for different choices of in- and
outgoing leptons. In this work, we try to address some intriguing questions
such as: Which hierarchy in the charged lepton sector one should have in order
to reconcile possible signals coming simultaneously from $g-2$ and lepton
flavor violation? What can we learn if the $g-2$ anomaly is confirmed by the
upcoming flagship experiments at FERMILAB and J-PARC, and no signal is seen in
the decay $\mu \rightarrow e\gamma$ in the foreseeable future? On the other
hand, if the $\mu \rightarrow e\gamma$ decay is seen in the upcoming years, do
we need to necessarily observe a signal also in $g-2$?. In this attempt, we
generally study the correlation between these observables in a detailed
analysis of simplified models. We derive master integrals and fully analytical
and exact expressions for both phenomena, and adress other flavor violating
signals. We investigate under which conditions the observations can be made
compatible and discuss their implications. Lastly, we discuss in this context
several extensions of the SM, such as the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard
Model, Left-Right symmetric model, $B-L$ model, scotogenic model, two Higgs
doublet model, Zee-Babu model, 331 model, and $L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}$, dark photon,
seesaw models type~I, II and III, and also address the interplay with $\mu \to
eee$ decay and $\mu-e$ conversion.

Yukawa Unification and the Superpartner Mass Scale

Naturalness in supersymmetry (SUSY) is under siege by increasingly stringent
LHC constraints, but natural electroweak symmetry breaking still remains the
most powerful motivation for superpartner masses within experimental reach. If
naturalness is the wrong criterion then what determines the mass scale of the
superpartners? We motivate supersymmetry by (1) gauge coupling unification, (2)
dark matter, and (3) precision b-tau Yukawa unification. We show that for an
LSP that is a bino-Higgsino admixture, these three requirements lead to an
upper-bound on the stop and sbottom masses in the several TeV regime because
the threshold correction to the bottom mass at the superpartner scale is
required to have a particular size. For tan beta about 50, which is needed for
t-b-tau unification, the stops must be lighter than 2.8 TeV when A_t has the
opposite sign of the gluino mass, as is favored by renormalization group
scaling. For lower values of tan beta, the top and bottom squarks must be even
lighter. Yukawa unification plus dark matter implies that superpartners are
likely in reach of the LHC, after the upgrade to 14 (or 13) TeV, independent of
any considerations of naturalness. We present a model-independent, bottom-up
analysis of the SUSY parameter space that is simultaneously consistent with
Yukawa unification and the hint for m_h = 125 GeV. We study the flavor and dark
matter phenomenology that accompanies this Yukawa unification. A large portion
of the parameter space predicts that the branching fraction for B_s to mu^+
mu^- will be observed to be significantly lower than the SM value.

We study the fragmentation fractions $(f_{{\bf B}_b})$ of the $b$-quark to
b-baryons (${\bf B}_b$). By the assumption of $f_{\Lambda_b}/(f_u+f_d)=0.25\pm
0.15$ in accordance with the measurements by LEP, CDF and LHCb Collaborations,
we estimate that $f_{\Lambda_b}=0.175\pm 0.106$ and $f_{\Xi_b^{-,0}}=0.019\pm
0.013$. From these fragmentation fractions, we derive ${\cal B}(\Lambda_b\to
J/\psi \Lambda)=(3.3\pm 2.1)\times 10^{-4}$, ${\cal B}(\Xi_b^-\to J/\psi
\Xi^-)=(5.3\pm 3.9)\times 10^{-4}$ and ${\cal B}(\Omega_b^-\to J/\psi
\Omega^-)>1.9\times 10^{-5}$. The predictions of ${\cal B}(\Lambda_b\to J/\psi
\Lambda)$ and ${\cal B}(\Xi_b^-\to J/\psi \Xi^-)$ clearly enable us to test the
theoretical models, such as the QCD factorization approach in the $b$-baryon
decays.

In asymmetric heavy ion collisions like dA or pA, particle production yields
are different in the forward (d- or p-side) and backward (A-side) rapidity
directions. The rapidity distribution reflects the geometry and phase-space
distribution of nuclear matter. These properties may depend on the time
evolution of the collision. Due to the smallness of the backward-forward
differences, the rapidity asymmetry factor can be useful to quantify nuclear
modification effects, like e.g. shadowing and the EMC effect. Our work is a
survey of the nuclear modification factor and the rapidity asymmetries at RHIC
energies. We analyze the rapidity dependence and the strength of the nuclear
effects. We focus on the high transverse momentum region, and make predictions
for the role of nuclear modifications and rapidity asymmetries for future
experimental measurements at increasing absolute values of rapidity.

We perform a systematic study of the $d=5$ Weinberg operator at the one-loop
level. We identify three different categories of neutrino mass generation: (1)
finite irreducible diagrams; (2) finite extensions of the usual seesaw
mechanisms at one-loop and (3) divergent loop realizations of the seesaws. All
radiative one-loop neutrino mass models must fall into one of these classes.
Case (1) gives the leading contribution to neutrino mass naturally and a
classic example of this class is the Zee model. We demonstrate that in order to
prevent that a tree level contribution dominates in case (2), Majorana fermions
running in the loop and an additional $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry are needed for a
genuinely leading one-loop contribution. In the type-II loop extensions, the
lepton number violating coupling will be generated at one loop, whereas the
type-I/III extensions can be interpreted as loop-induced inverse or linear
seesaw mechanisms. For the divergent diagrams in category (3), the tree level
contribution cannot be avoided and is in fact needed as counter term to absorb
the divergence.

Programs that calculate observables in quantum chromodynamics at
next-to-leading order typically suffer from the problem that, when considered
as event generators, the events generated consist of partons rather than
hadrons and just a few partons at that. Thus the events generated are
completely unrealistic. These programs would be much more useful if the few
partons were turned into parton showers, in the style of standard Monte Carlo
event generators. Then the parton showers could be given to one of the Monte
Carlo event generators to produce hadron showers. We show how to generate
parton showers related to the final state collinear singularities of the
next-to-leading order perturbative calculation for the example of e+ + e- --> 3
jets . The soft singularities are left for a separate publication.

scalar sector for t\bar{t} production and decay at the LHC. In particular we
study the effect of the two neutral color-octet scalars S_I and S_R that occur
in the model. There are two new sources of CP violation: a phase in the
couplings of S_{I,R} to top-quarks; and two phases in the quartic couplings of
the scalar potential. In resonant production of a single S_{I,R} followed by
its decay into t\bar{t} pairs through the parton level process gg to S_{I,R} to
t\bar{t}, we find large raw CP asymmetries which can reach 12%. These raw
asymmetries are, of course, diluted by standard model (SM) t\bar{t} pairs
making observation of CP violation contingent on whether the resonance itself
can be extracted from the SM background.

Results from our recent investigations of quark number susceptibilities in
both quenched and 2-flavour QCD are presented as a function of valence quark
mass and temperature. A strong reduction (approx. 40%) is seen in the strange
quark susceptibility above T_c in both the cases. A comparison of our isospin
susceptibility results with the corresponding weak coupling expansion reveals
once again the non-perturbative nature of the plasma up to 3T_c. Evidence
relating the susceptibility to another non-perturbative phenomena, pionic
screening lengths, is presented.

We use a simple perturbation theory argument and measurements of charmonium
leptonic widths $\Gamma (\psi_{NS} \rightarrow e^+e^-)$ to estimate the ratio
\mbox{$R_\circ \equiv {\vert \Psi _{\eta_{c1S}}(0) \vert}^2
/{\vert\Psi_{\psi_{1 S}}(0)\vert}^2$} in the general context of non-
relativistic potential models. We obtain $R_\circ = 1.4 \pm 0.1$. We then apply
well known potential model formulas, which include lowest order QCD
corrections, to find $\Gamma (\eta_c \rightarrow \gamma \gamma )/\Gamma
(\psi_{1S} \rightarrow e^+e^-) \approx 2.2\pm 0.2$. The central value for
$\Gamma (\psi_{1S} \rightarrow e^+ e^-)$in the 1992 Particle Data Tables then
leads to a (non relativistic) prediction $\Gamma (\eta_c \rightarrow \gamma
\gamma )\approx 11.8\pm 0.8 $ keV. This prediction is in good agreement with a
recent measurement by the ARGUS collaboration, is consistent with a recent
measurement by the L3 collaboration but is significantly higher than several
earlier measurements and than previous theoretical estimates, which usually
assume $R_\circ =1$. The correction to $R_\circ =1$ is estimated to be smaller
but nonnegligible for the $b\bar b$ system. Using the current central
measurement for $\Gamma (\Upsilon_{1S}\rightarrow e^+e^-)$ we find $\Gamma
(\eta_b\rightarrow \gamma \gamma )\approx 0.58\pm 0.03$ keV. A rough estimate
of relativistic corrections reduces the expected two photon rates to about 8.8
keV and 0.52 keV for the $\eta_c$ and $\eta_b$ mesons respectively. Such

In this thesis exact results on O(alpha^2) single bremsstrahlung corrections
to low angle Bhabha scattering at LEP/SLC energies are given. The calculation
represents the last outstanding theoretical second order subleading electroweak
contribution for that process, needed to determine the experimental luminosity
at second generation LEP detectors below the 0.1% precision threshold. The
exact, fully differential result is obtained by employing analytical as well as
computer-algebraic methods and includes terms up to O(0.05%) relative to the
Born cross section. The initial output of over 20,000 terms could be reduced to
90, only 18 of which are shown to be numerically relevant and for which a
simple logarithmic ansatz is derived, that is in remarkable agreement with the
complete answer. Strong consistency checks are performed, including
Ward-Takahashi identities and tests on the right infrared limit according to
the Yennie, Frautschi and Suura program. Monte Carlo results for the integrated
cross section are compared with existing calculations in the leading
logarithmic approximation for a chosen set of experimental cuts. The size of
the missing subleading terms is found to be small but non negligible in the
context of setting stringent limits on Standard Model predictions and thus its
realm of validity.

two eikosiheptaplets (27-plets of SU(3) flavor) of spin 3/2 and 1/2 that emerge
in the rigid rotator quantization. We use as input: hyperon decays, Theta+ mass
and width. While 27_{3/2} has small widths (although much larger than the
values allowed by the partial wave analysis), 27_{1/2} has large decay widths
to antidecuplet. However exactly for this decay channels the widths are
suppressed in the large N_{c} limit.

The strange particle production off the nucleon induced by neutrinos and
antineutrinos is investigated at low and intermediate energies. We develop a
microscopic model based on the SU(3) chiral Lagrangian. The studied mechanisms
are the main source of single kaon production for (anti)neutrino energies up to
1.5 GeV. Using this model we have also studied the associated production of
kaons and hyperons. The cross sections are large enough to be measured by
experiments such as MINER$\nu$A, T2K and NO$\nu$A.

Within the QCD-improved parton model and assuming the factorization theorem
to hold in the helicity basis and for higher twist contributions, we show how
non zero single spin asymmetries in hadron-hadron high energy and moderately
large $p_T$ inclusive processes can be obtained, even in massless perturbative
QCD, provided the quark intrinsic motion is taken into account. A simple model
is constructed which reproduces the main features of the data on the single
spin asymmetry observed in inclusive pion production in $p\,p$ collisions.

A Regge approach to the reaction processes $\gamma p\to\pi^-\Delta^{++}$ and
$\gamma p\to\pi^+\Delta^0$ is presented for the description of existing data up
to $E_\gamma= 16$ GeV. The model consists of the $t$-channel
$\pi(139)+\rho(775)+a_2(1320)$ exchanges which are reggeized from the relevant
Born amplitude. Discussion is given on the minimal gauge prescription for the
$\pi$ exchange to render convergent the divergence of the $u$-channel
$\Delta$-pole in the former process. A new Lagrangian is constructed for the
$a_2N\Delta$ coupling in this work and applied to the process for the first
time with the coupling constant deduced from the duality plus vector dominance.
It is shown that, while the $\pi$ exchange dominates over the process, the role
of the $a_2$ exchange is crucial rather than the $\rho$ in reproducing the
cross sections for total, differential, and photon polarization asymmetry to
agree with data at high energy.

We discuss conditions under which bi-large mixing in the lepton sector is
achieved assuming that all Yukawa matrices and the right-handed neutrino mass
matrix have the same singular form in the leading order. Due to obvious quark
lepton symmetry, this approach can be embedded into grand unified theories. The
right-handed neutrino mass scale can be identified with the GUT scale and, as a
consequence of third generation Yukawa coupling unification, the mass of the
lightest neutrino is given as (m_{top}^2/M_{GUT})|U_{\tau 1}|^2 in the leading
order. This relation does not depend on the exact form of mass matrices.

We present calculations of next-to-leading order QCD splitting functions,
employing the light-cone gauge method of Curci, Furmanski, and Petronzio (CFP).
In contrast to the `principal-value' prescription used in the original CFP
paper for dealing with the poles of the light-cone gauge gluon propagator, we
adopt the Mandelstam-Leibbrandt prescription which is known to have a solid
field-theoretical foundation. We find that indeed the calculation using this
prescription is conceptionally clear and avoids the somewhat dubious
manipulations of the spurious poles required when the principal-value method is
applied. We reproduce the well-known results for the flavour non-singlet
splitting function and the N_C^2 part of the gluon-to-gluon singlet splitting
function, which are the most complicated ones, and which provide an exhaustive
test of the ML prescription. We also discuss in some detail the x=1 endpoint
contributions to the splitting functions.

We discuss the polar angle decay distribution in the decay of on-shell and
off-shell polarized (W,Z) gauge bosons into massive quark pairs. In particular
for the off-shell decays in $H \to (W,Z) + (W^\ast,Z^\ast) (\to q_1\bar q_2)$
it is important to keep the masses of the charm and bottom quarks at their
finite values since the scale of the problem is not set by $m_{W,Z}^2$ but by
the off-shellness of the gauge boson which varies in the range $(m_1+m_2)^2 \le
q^2 \le (m_H-m_{W,Z})^2$.

Dark matter search in space has been carried out for many years. Measurements
of cosmic ray photons, charged antiparticles and neutrinos are useful tools for
dark matter indirect search. The antiparticle energy spectra of cosmic rays
have several exciting features such as the unexpected positron excess at energy
about 10 -- 500 GeV and the remarkably flattening antiproton/proton at energy
about 60--450 GeV precisely measured by the AMS-02 experiment, which can not be
explained simultaneously by secondary production in interstellar medium. In
this work, we report a combined analysis of cosmic ray antiproton and positron
spectra arising from dark matter on the top of a secondary production in a
spatial-dependent propagation model. We discuss the systematics from antiproton
production cross section using the two latest Monte Carlo generators, i.e. EPOS
LHC and QGSJET-II-04m, respectively. We compare their results. In the case of
EPOS LHC, we find that the dark matter pair annihilating into tau leptons
channel with 100% branching ratio is the only possible one channel scenario to
explain data. On the other hand, there is not a single possible channel in the
case of QGSJET-II-04m. We also propose possible two-channel scenarios based on
these two Monte Carlo generators.

I present higher-order radiative corrections from collinear and soft gluon
emission for the associated production of a charged Higgs boson with a $W$
boson. The calculation uses expressions from resummation at
next-to-leading-logarithm accuracy. From the resummed cross section I derive
analytical formulas at approximate NNLO and N$^3$LO. Total cross sections are
presented for the process $b{\bar b} \rightarrow H^- W^+$ at various LHC
energies. The transverse-momentum and rapidity distributions of the charged
Higgs boson are also calculated.

The masses of baryons containing two heavy quarks and their couplings to the
corresponding quark currents are evaluated in the framework of NRQCD sum rules.
The coulomb-like corrections in the system of doubly heavy diquark are taken
into account, and the contribution of nonperturbative terms coming from the
quark, gluon and mixed condensates as well as the product of quark and gluon
condensates, is analyzed. The higher condensates destroy the factorization of
baryon and diquark correlators and provide the convergency of sum rule method.
As a result the accuracy of estimates is improved.

We investigate the effective interaction of a pseudoscalar particle with two
photons in an external electromagnetic field in the general case of all
external particles being off the mass shell. This interaction is used to study
the radiative decay $a \to \gamma \gamma$ of the axion, a pseudoscalar particle
associated with the Peccei-Quinn symmetry, and the crossing channel of photon
splitting $\gamma \to \gamma a$. It is shown that the external field removes
the suppression associated with the smallness of the axion mass and so leads to
the strong catalysis of these processes. The field-induced axion emission by
photon is analyzed as one more possible source of energy losses by
astrophysical objects.

We study a model for the mass matrices of the leptons. We are ablte to relate
the mass eigenvalues of the charged leptons and of the neutrinos to the mxiing
angles and can predict the masses of the neutrinos. We find a normal hierarchy
-the masses are 0.004 eV, 0.01 eV and 0.05 eV. The atmospheric mixing angle is
given by the mass ratios of the charged leptons and of the neutrinos. We find
38 degrees, consistent with the experiments. The mixing element, connecting the
first neutrino with the electron, is found to be 0.05.

This study presents generalization of the Landau hydrodynamic solution for
multiparticle production applied to non-central relativistic heavy ion
collisions. Obtained results shows longitudinal scaling of elliptic flow $v_2$
as a function of rapidity shifted by beam rapidity ($y-y_{beam}$) for different
energies ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}=62.4$ GeV and 200 GeV) and for different systems
(Au-Au and Cu-Cu). It is argued, that the elliptic flow and its longitudinal
scaling is due to the initial transverse energy density distribution and
initial longitudinal thickness effect.

In the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) a variety of
parameter configurations yields a Higgs boson consistent with the one observed
at the LHC. Additionally, the Higgs sector of the model can contain explicit
CP-violating phases even at the tree level, in contrast with the Minimal
Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). In this article we present the one-loop
Higgs boson mass matrix of the complex NMSSM in the
renormalisation-group-improved effective potential approach. We also present
the trilinear Higgs boson self-couplings as well as various partial decay
widths of a generic CP-mixed Higgs boson in the model. We then analyse a very
interesting phenomenological scenario wherein the decay of a relatively light
pseudoscalar-like Higgs boson into ~ 125 GeV SM-like Higgs boson(s) is induced
by non-zero CP-violating phases. We discuss in detail a few benchmark cases in
which such a decay can contribute significantly to the production of SM-like
Higgs bosons at the LHC on top of the gluon fusion process. It can thus be
partially responsible for the gamma.gamma excess near 125 GeV due to the
subsequent decay of the SM-like Higgs boson. Such a scenario is extremely
difficult to realize in the complex MSSM and, if probed at the LHC, it could
provide an indication of the non-minimal nature of supersymmetry.

We propose that transverse momentum spectra with power-law tails observed in
ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions can be interpreted as originating in a
medium in thermal equilibrium. General conditions on the dynamical equations
are formulated, leading in equilibrium to various energy distributions of
particles. Starting with the linear Fokker-Planck equation we analyze
conditions for Boltzmann-Gibbs, Tsallis, or other equilibrium distributions
based upon the dependence of fluctuation and dissipation on the energy of the
observed subsystem. RHIC neutral pion data definitely exclude Boltzmann-Gibbs
distribution over the entire range of observed transverse momenta.

We present a study of parity (P) violating polarization rotations of atoms in
external electric fields. Five different types of rotations are identified and
the consequences of time reversal invariance (T) are discussed. The role played
by Zeldovich's electric dipole moment of unstable states is elucidated. To
calculate the effects, we use the standard model of elementary particle physics
where P violation in atoms is due to the exchange of the Z boson between the
quarks in the nucleus and the atomic electrons. We consider in detail
hydrogen-like systems in $n=2$ states, especially $^1_1$H, $^4_2$He$^+$, and
$^{12}_6$C$^{5+}$. We discuss ways to obtain in some cases large enhancement
factors for the P-violating polarization rotations and show that e.g. for
$^1_1$H one could in principle observe rotations as large as a few percent,
where for a statistically significant result one would need a total of
$10^{15}$ polarized atoms. We point out that some of our P-violating
polarization rotations are very sensitive to the nuclear spin-dependent part of
the P-violating Hamiltonian which receives a contribution from the polarized
strange quark density in polarized nuclei.

Recent observations constrain the amount of Dark Radiation ($\Delta N_{\rm
eff}$) and may even hint towards a non-zero value of $\Delta N_{\rm eff}$. It
is by now well-known that this puts stringent constraints on the sequestered
Large Volume Scenario (LVS), i.e. on LVS realisations with the Standard Model
at a singularity. We go beyond this setting by considering LVS models where SM
fields are realised on 7-branes in the geometric regime. As we argue, this
naturally goes together with high-scale supersymmetry. The abundance of Dark
Radiation is determined by the competition between the decay of the lightest
modulus to axions, to the SM Higgs and to gauge fields. The latter decay
channel avoids the most stringent constraints of the sequestered setting.
Nevertheless, a rather robust prediction for a substantial amount of Dark
Radiation can be made. This applies both to cases where the SM 4-cycles are
stabilised by D-terms and are small "by accident" as well as to fibred models
with the small cycles stabilised by loops. Furthermore, we analyse a closely
related setting where the SM lives at a singularity but couples to the volume
modulus through flavour branes. We conclude that some of the most natural LVS
settings with natural values of model parameters lead to Dark Radiation
predictions just below the present observational limits. Barring a discovery,
rather modest improvements of present Dark Radiation bounds can rule out many
of these most simple and generic variants of the LVS.

Bhabha scattering is one of the processes at the ILC where high precision
data will be expected. The complete NNLO corrections include radiative loop
corrections, with contributions from Feynman diagrams with five external legs.
We take these diagrams as an example and discuss several features of the
evaluation of pentagon diagrams. The tensor functions are usually reduced to
simpler scalar functions. Here we study, as an alternative, the application of
Mellin-Barnes representations to 5-point functions. There is no evidence for an
improved numerical evaluation of their finite, physical parts. However, the

Bhabha scattering is one of the processes at the ILC where high precision data will be expected. The complete NNLO corrections include radiative loop corrections, with contributions from Feynman diagrams with five external legs. We take these diagrams as an example and discuss several features of the evaluation of pentagon diagrams. The tensor functions are usually reduced to simpler scalar functions. Here we study, as an alternative, the application of Mellin-Barnes representations to 5-point functions. There is no evidence for an improved numerical evaluation of their finite, physical parts. However, the approach gives interesting insights into the treatment of the IR-singularities.

We present next-to-leading order predictions for double transverse-spin
asymmetries in Drell--Yan dilepton production initiated by proton--antiproton
scattering. The kinematic region of the proposed PAX experiment at GSI:
$30\lesssim{s}\lesssim200\GeV^2$ and $2\lesssim{M}\lesssim7\GeV$ is examined.
The Drell--Yan asymmetries turn out to be large, in the range 20--40%.
Measuring these asymmetries would provide the cleanest determination of the
quark transversity distributions.

Weak processes (e.g., B decays) with characteristic energies <<M_W can be

We discuss weak-vector-boson scattering, at next-to-leading order in QCD,
within the framework of hadronic structure functions. We use this approach to
calculate the Higgs-boson production cross section via vector-boson fusion at
the LHC/SSC; we find a modest increase over the leading-order prediction. We
also give expressions for the distribution of vector bosons in a proton
(effective-$W$ approximation) including ${\cal O} (\alpha_s)$ corrections.

Dark matter annihilation might power the first luminous stars in the
Universe. These types of stars, known as dark stars, could form in
$(10^6\mathrm{-}10^8)\,M_\odot$ protohalos at redshifts $z \sim 20$, and they
could be much more luminous and larger in size than ordinary stars powered by
nuclear fusion. We investigate the formation of dark stars in the
self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) scenario. We present a concrete particle
physics model of SIDM that can simultaneously give rise to the observed dark
matter density, satisfy constraints from astrophysical and terrestrial
searches, and address the various small-scale problems of collisionless dark
matter via the self-interactions. In this model, the power from dark matter
annihilation is deposited in the baryonic gas in environments where dark stars
could form. We further study the evolution of SIDM density profiles in the
protohalos at $z \sim 20$. As the baryon cloud collapses due to the various
cooling processes, the deepening gravitational potential can speed up
gravothermal evolution of the SIDM halo, yielding sufficiently high dark matter
densities for dark stars to form. We find that SIDM-powered dark stars can have
similar properties, such as their luminosity and size, as dark stars predicted
in collisionless dark matter models.

We study chiral symmetry breaking for fundamental charged fermions coupled
electromagnetically to photons with the inclusion of four-fermion contact
self-interaction term. We employ multiplicatively renormalizable models for the
photon dressing function and the electron-photon vertex which minimally ensures
mass anomalous dimension = 1. Vacuum polarization screens the interaction
strength. Consequently, the pattern of dynamical mass generation for fermions
is characterized by a critical number of massless fermion flavors above which
chiral symmetry is restored. This effect is in diametrical opposition to the
existence of criticality for the minimum interaction strength necessary to
break chiral symmetry dynamically. The presence of virtual fermions dictates
the nature of phase transition. Miransky scaling laws for the electromagnetic
interaction strength and the four-fermion coupling, observed for quenched QED,
are replaced by a mean-field power law behavior corresponding to a second order
phase transition. These results are derived analytically by employing the
bifurcation analysis, and are later confirmed numerically by solving the
original non-linearized gap equation. A three dimensional critical surface is
drawn to clearly depict the interplay of the relative strengths of interactions
and number of flavors to separate the two phases. We also compute the
beta-function and observe that it has ultraviolet fixed point. The power law
part of the momentum dependence, describing the mass function, reproduces the
quenched limit trivially. We also comment on the continuum limit and the
triviality of QED.

The results of an extensive flavour physics analysis in the Littlest Higgs

K^0 and B^0_{d,s} systems have been studied. Several scenarios defined by the
values of mirror quark masses and the parameters of the new flavour mixing
matrix V_Hd have been considered. A very interesting scenario is identified,
where the well-known kaon constraints are satisfied, the sin(2beta) and Delta
M_s issues are improved w.r.t the Standard Model and visible effects could be
soon found in A_SL^s and S_{psi phi}.

We show that colliding vortex beams instead of (approximate) plane waves can
lead to a direct measurement of how the overall phase of the plane wave
scattering amplitude changes with the scattering angle. Since vortex beams are
coherent superpositions of plane waves with different momenta, their scattering
amplitude receives contributions from plane wave amplitudes with distinct
kinematics. These contributions interfere, leading to the measurement of their
phase difference. Although interference exists for any generic wave packet
collision, we show that using vortex beams dramatically enhances sensitivity to
the phase in comparison with non-vortex beams. Since the overall phase is
inaccessible in a plane wave collision, this measurement would be of great
importance for a number of topics in hadronic physics, for example, meson
production in the resonance region, physics of nucleon resonances, and small
angle elastic hadron scattering.

In most multi-component dark-matter scenarios, two classes of processes
generically contribute to event rates at experiments capable of probing the
nature of the dark sector. The first class consists of "diagonal" processes
involving only a single species of dark-matter particle -- processes analogous
to those which arise in single-component dark-matter scenarios. By contrast,
the second class consists of "off-diagonal" processes involving dark-matter
particles of different species. Such processes include inelastic scattering at
direct-detection experiments, asymmetric production at colliders, dark-matter
co-annihilation, and certain kinds of dark-matter decay. In typical
multi-component scenarios, the contributions from diagonal processes dominate
over those from off-diagonal processes. Unfortunately, this tends to mask those
features which are most sensitive to the multi-component nature of the dark
sector. In this paper, by contrast, we point out that there exist natural,
multi-component dark-sector scenarios in which the off-diagonal contributions
actually dominate over the diagonal. This then gives rise to a new, enhanced
picture of dark-matter complementarity. In this paper, we introduce a scenario
in which this situation arises and examine the enhanced picture of dark-matter
complementarity which emerges.

The transition form factor, decay width and charge form factor of pion are
calculated within the model of induced nonlocal quark currents based on the
assumption that the nonperturbative QCD vacuum can be characterized by a
homogeneous (anti-)self-dual gluon field. It is shown that the interaction of
the quark spin with the vacuum gluon field, being responsible in the model for
the chiral symmetry breaking and the spectrum of light mesons, can also play
the decisive role in forming the transition form factor and two-photon decay
width. Asymptotic behavior of quark loops in the presence of the background
gluon field for large momentum transfer is discussed.

We construct line shapes for the X(3872) that generalize the Flatte and
zero-range line shapes that have been considered previously. These line shapes
are associated with scattering amplitudes that are exactly unitary for real
values of the interaction parameters and can be derived from a renormalizable
quantum field theory. The new line shapes can be used to discriminate between
the alternative binding mechanisms in which the X(3872) is generated either
dynamically by charm meson interactions or by a resonance near the D^{*0}
Dbar^0 threshold. If the resonance is identified with the P-wave charmonium
state chi'_{c1}, the interaction parameters can be constrained by using
charmonium phenomenology. We analyze data on the X(3872) and also data from the
Belle and Babar Collaborations on the invariant mass distribution of the charm
mesons from the decay B -> K + D^{*0} Dbar^0 up to 4000 MeV. Our analysis is
compatible with the mechanism for the X(3872) being either a fine-tuning of
charm meson interactions or the fine-tuning of the chi'_{c1} to the D^{*0}
Dbar^0 threshold. In particular, the data do not exclude a separate chi'_{c1}
resonance between the D^{*+} D^- threshold and 4000 MeV.

The pion electromagnetic form factor has been calculated for the first time
from the solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation, obtained directly in
Minkowski space by using the Nakanishi integral representation of the
Bethe-Salpeter amplitude. The one-gluon exchange kernel contains as inputs the
quark and gluon masses, as well as a scale parameter featuring the extended
quark-gluon vertex. The range of variability of these parameters is suggested
by lattice calculations. After presenting a very successful comparison with the
existing data in the whole range of the momentum transfer, we show how
inserting the light-front (LF) formalism in our approach allows to achieve
further interesting results, like the evaluation of the LF valence form factor
and a first investigation of the end-points effects.

In this paper, we study the three-body decays $B^0/B^0_s \to \eta_c f_0(X)\to
\eta_c \pi^+\pi^-$ by employing the perturbative QCD (PQCD) factorization
approach. We evaluate the $S$-wave resonance contributions by using the
two-pion distribution amplitude $\Phi_{\pi\pi}^{\rm S}$. The Breit-Wigner
formula for the $f_0(500)$, $f_0(1500)$, and $f_0(1790)$ resonances and the
Flatt\'e model for the $f_0(980)$ resonance are adopted to parameterize the
time-like scalar form factors $F_{s}(\omega^2)$. We also use the D.~V.~Bugg
model to parameterize the $f_0(500)$ and compare the relevant theoretical
predictions from different models. We found the following results: (a) the PQCD
predictions for the branching ratios are ${\cal B}(B^0\to \eta_c
f_0(500)[\pi^+\pi^-])= \left ( 1.53 ^{+0.76}_{-0.35} \right ) \times 10^{-6}$
for Breit-Wigner model and ${\cal B}(B^0\to \eta_c f_0(500)[\pi^+\pi^-])= \left
( 2.31 ^{+0.96}_{-0.48} \right ) \times 10^{-6}$ for D.~V.~Bugg model; (b) $
{\cal B}(B_s\to \eta_c f_0(X)[\pi^+\pi^-] ) =\left ( 5.02^{+1.49}_{-1.08}
\right )\times 10^{-5}$ when the contributions from
$f_0(X)=(f_0(980),f_0(1500),f_0(1790))$ are all taken into account; and (c) The
considered decays could be measured at the ongoing LHCb experiment,
consequently, the formalism of two-hadron distribution amplitudes could also be
tested by such experiments.

Central exclusive Higgs boson production, pp -> p + H + p, at the LHC and
s-channel resonant Higgs production in the photon-collider option of the ILC
can provide a very important contribution to the comprehensive study of the
Higgs sector. Especially attractive is the b bbar Higgs decay mode, which for
certain MSSM scenarios may become the discovery channel in exclusive Higgs
production at the LHC and the Photon Collider (PC). Strongly suppressed and
controllable backgrounds is an obvious requirement for the success of these
exclusive measurements. One of the main sources of background comes from
additional gluon radiation which leads to a three-jet b bbar g final state. We
perform an explicit calculation of the subprocesses gg -> q qbar g and gamma
gamma -> q qbar g, where the incoming particles are required to be in a J_z=0
state and the two gluons form a colour singlet, and investigate the salient
properties of these potentially important background processes.

We determine the non-perturbative gluon condensate of four-dimensional SU(3)
gauge theory in a model independent way. This is achieved by carefully
subtracting high order perturbation theory results from non-perturbative
lattice QCD determinations of the average plaquette. No indications of
dimension two condensates are found. The value of the gluon condensate turns
out to be of a similar size as the intrinsic ambiguity inherent to its
definition.

Asymptotic Grand Unification theories (aGUTs) in five dimensions provide a
valid alternative to standard quantitative unification. We define the pathway
towards viable models starting from a general unified bulk gauge symmetry.
Imposing the presence of ultra-violet fixed points for both gauge and Yukawa
couplings strongly limits the possibilities. Within the SU(N) kinship, we
identify and characterise only two realistic minimal models, both based on a
bulk SU(6) symmetry. Both models feature the generation of either up or
down-type Yukawas via gauge scalars, two Higgs doublets with build-in minimal
flavour violation at low energies, and conservation of baryon number. We also
propose interesting avenues beyond the minimality criterion.

We perform a detailed study of the inclusive branching ratio and the
forward-backward asymmetry of the rare B decay process $B \longrightarrow X_{s}
\tau^{+} \tau^{-}$ in the flipped SU(5) model, a predictive model which has
only two free parameters, plus the sign of the higgs mixing mass $\mu$, to
describe mass spectrum and mixings of about 30 sparticles. In contrast to other
works dealing with such a topic, our study has included the contributions of
the neutral higgs bosons through penguin diagrams to this process under the
context of supersymmetry. In some regions of the parameter space, due to the
substantial enhancement effects coming from supersymmetry, these contributions
become quite significant and could make the flavor change process $B
\longrightarrow X_{s} \tau^{+} \tau^{-}$ a microscope to probe the regions of
large tan$\beta$ and a window to gain an insight into new physics beyond the
standard model(SM).

These give a combined position and momentum space information of the quark
distributions and are related to both generalized parton distributions (GPDs)

compare the different definitions of quark orbital angular momentum in this

We study the semileptonic and non-leptonic charmed baryon decays with $SU(3)$
flavor symmetry, where the charmed baryons can be ${\bf
B}_{c}=(\Xi_c^0,\Xi_c^+,\Lambda_c^+)$, ${\bf
B}'_{c}=(\Sigma_c^{(++,+,0)},\Xi_{c}^{\prime(+,0)},\Omega_c^0)$, ${\bf
B}_{cc}=(\Xi_{cc}^{++},\Xi_{cc}^+,\Omega_{cc}^+)$, or ${\bf
B}_{ccc}=\Omega^{++}_{ccc}$. With ${\bf B}_n^{(\prime)}$ denoted as the baryon
octet (decuplet), we find that the ${\bf B}_{c}\to {\bf B}'_n\ell^+\nu_\ell$
decays are forbidden, while the $\Omega_c^0\to \Omega^-\ell^+\nu_\ell$,
$\Omega_{cc}^+\to\Omega_c^0\ell^+\nu_\ell$, and $\Omega_{ccc}^{++}\to
\Omega_{cc}^+\ell^+\nu_\ell$ decays are the only existing Cabibbo-allowed modes
for ${\bf B}'_{c}\to {\bf B}'_n\ell^+\nu_\ell$, ${\bf B}_{cc}\to {\bf
B}'_c\ell^+\nu_\ell$, and ${\bf B}_{ccc}\to {\bf
B}_{cc}^{(\prime)}\ell^+\nu_\ell$, respectively. We predict the rarely studied
${\bf B}_{c}\to {\bf B}_n^{(\prime)}M$ decays, such as ${\cal
B}(\Xi_c^0\to\Lambda^0\bar K^0,\,\Xi_c^+\to\Xi^0\pi^+)=(8.3\pm 0.9,8.0\pm
4.1)\times 10^{-3}$ and ${\cal B}(\Lambda_c^+\to
\Delta^{++}\pi^-,\,\Xi_c^0\to\Omega^- K^+)=(5.5\pm 1.3,4.8\pm 0.5)\times
10^{-3}$. For the observation, the doubly and triply charmed baryon decays of
$\Omega_{cc}^{+}\to \Xi_c^+\bar K^0$, $\Xi_{cc}^{++}\to (\Xi_c^+\pi^+$,
$\Sigma_c^{++}\bar K^0)$, and $\Omega_{ccc}^{++}\to (\Xi_{cc}^{++}\bar
K^0,\Omega_{cc}^+\pi^+,\Xi_c^+ D^+)$ are the favored Cabibbo-allowed decays,
which are accessible to the BESIII and LHCb experiments.

We study the semileptonic and non-leptonic charmed baryon decays with $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry, where the charmed baryons can be ${\bf B}_{c}=(\Xi_c^0,\Xi_c^+,\Lambda_c^+)$, ${\bf B}'_{c}=(\Sigma_c^{(++,+,0)},\Xi_{c}^{\prime(+,0)},\Omega_c^0)$, ${\bf B}_{cc}=(\Xi_{cc}^{++},\Xi_{cc}^+,\Omega_{cc}^+)$, or ${\bf B}_{ccc}=\Omega^{++}_{ccc}$. With ${\bf B}_n^{(\prime)}$ denoted as the baryon octet (decuplet), we find that the ${\bf B}_{c}\to {\bf B}'_n\ell^+\nu_\ell$ decays are forbidden, while the $\Omega_c^0\to \Omega^-\ell^+\nu_\ell$, $\Omega_{cc}^+\to\Omega_c^0\ell^+\nu_\ell$, and $\Omega_{ccc}^{++}\to \Omega_{cc}^+\ell^+\nu_\ell$ decays are the only existing Cabibbo-allowed modes for ${\bf B}'_{c}\to {\bf B}'_n\ell^+\nu_\ell$, ${\bf B}_{cc}\to {\bf B}'_c\ell^+\nu_\ell$, and ${\bf B}_{ccc}\to {\bf B}_{cc}^{(\prime)}\ell^+\nu_\ell$, respectively. We predict the rarely studied ${\bf B}_{c}\to {\bf B}_n^{(\prime)}M$ decays, such as ${\cal B}(\Xi_c^0\to\Lambda^0\bar K^0,\,\Xi_c^+\to\Xi^0\pi^+)=(8.3\pm 0.9,8.0\pm 4.1)\times 10^{-3}$ and ${\cal B}(\Lambda_c^+\to \Delta^{++}\pi^-,\,\Xi_c^0\to\Omega^- K^+)=(5.5\pm 1.3,4.8\pm 0.5)\times 10^{-3}$. For the observation, the doubly and triply charmed baryon decays of $\Omega_{cc}^{+}\to \Xi_c^+\bar K^0$, $\Xi_{cc}^{++}\to (\Xi_c^+\pi^+$, $\Sigma_c^{++}\bar K^0)$, and $\Omega_{ccc}^{++}\to (\Xi_{cc}^{++}\bar K^0,\Omega_{cc}^+\pi^+,\Xi_c^+ D^+)$ are the favored Cabibbo-allowed decays, which are accessible to the BESIII and LHCb experiments.

Charged pion condensation and color superconductivity phenomena in

In this paper, the question of the influence of color superconductivity (CSC)
on the formation of a phase with condensation of charged pions in dense
chirally asymmetric quark matter is studied. We consider it within the
framework of the massless NJL model with a diquark interaction channel at zero
temperature, but in the presence of baryon $\mu_B$, isospin $\mu_I$, chiral
$\mu_{5}$ and chiral isospin $\mu_{I5}$ chemical potentials. It has been shown
in the mean-field approximation that in the presence of chiral imbalance, when
$\mu_{5}\ne 0$ and/or $\mu_{I5}\ne 0$, CSC phenomenon does not hinder the
generation of charged pion condensation in dense quark matter even at largest
baryon densities attainable in heavy ion collisions experiments and in cores of
neutron stars and its mergers. So charged pion condensation in dense quark
matter with chiral imbalance predicted earlier is not in a bit suppressed by
the presence of CSC, highlighting the resilience of this phase in dense quark
matter. This makes phase structure of dense quark matter even more rich,
multifaceted and interesting, and shows that pion condensation in dense quark
matter is viable phenomenon to be explored, for example, in intermediate energy
heavy ion collisions experiments.

A preliminary determination of the Dirac phase in the PMNS matrix is
$\dell\approx -\frac{\pi}{2}$. A rather accurately determined Jarlskog
invariant $J$ in the CKM matrix is close to the maximum. Since the phases in
the CKM and PMNS matrices will be accurately determined in the future, it is an
interesting problem to relate these two phases. This can be achieved in a
families-unified grand unification if the weak CP violation is introduced
spontaneously {\it \`a la} Froggatt and Nielsen at a high energy scale, where
only one meaningful Dirac CP phase appears.

Resonant Conversion of Wave Dark Matter in the Ionosphere

We consider resonant wave-like dark matter conversion into low-frequency
radio waves in the Earth's ionosphere. Resonant conversion occurs when the dark
matter mass and the plasma frequency coincide, defining a range $m_{ \text{DM}
} \sim 10^{-9} - 10^{-8}$ eV where this approach is best suited. Owing to the
non-relativistic nature of dark matter and the typical variational scale of the
Earth's ionosphere, the standard linearized approach to computing dark matter
conversion is not suitable. We therefore solve a second-order boundary-value
problem, effectively framing the ionosphere as a driven cavity filled with a
positionally-varying plasma. An electrically-small dipole antenna targeting the
generated radio waves can be orders of magnitude more sensitive to dark photon
and axion-like particle dark matter in the relevant mass range. The present
study opens up a promising way of testing hitherto unexplored parameter space
which could be further improved with a dedicated instrument.

The parton-to-hadron fragmentation functions (FFs) obtained from the YaJEM
and PYTHIA6 Monte Carlo event generators, are studied for jets produced in a
strongly-interacting medium and in the QCD "vacuum" respectively. The medium
modifications are studied with the YaJEM code in two different scenarios by (i)
accounting for the medium induced virtuality DeltaQ^2 transferred to the
leading parton from the medium, and (ii) by altering the infrared sector in the
Borghini-Wiedemann approach. The results of our simulations are compared to
experimental jet data measured by the CMS experiment in PbPb and pp collisions
at a center-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV. Though both scenarios qualitatively
describe the shape and main physical features of the FFs, the ratios are in
much better agreement with the first scenario. Results are presented for the
Monte Carlo FFs obtained for different parton flavours (quark and gluon) and
accounting exactly, or not, for the experimental jet reconstruction biases.

We compute the distribution amplitudes of the pion and kaon in the
light-front constituent quark model with the symmetric quark-bound state vertex
function. In the calculation we explicitly include the flavor-SU(3) symmetry
breaking effect in terms of the constituent quark masses of the up (down) and
strange quarks. To calculate the kaon parton distribution functions~(PDFs), we
use both the conditions in the light-cone wave function, i.e., when $\bar{s}$
quark is on-shell, and when $u$ quark is on-shell, and make a comparison
between them. The kaon PDFs calculated in the two different conditions clearly
show asymmetric behaviour due to the flavor SU(3)-symmetry breaking implemented
by the quark masses.

The Monte Carlo model Sibyll has been designed for efficient simulation of
hadronic multiparticle production up to the highest energies as needed for
interpreting cosmic ray measurements. For more than 15 years, version 2.1 of
Sibyll has been one of the standard models for air shower simulation. Motivated
by data of LHC and fixed-target experiments and a better understanding of the
phenomenology of hadronic interactions, we have developed an improved version
of this model, version 2.3, which has been released in 2016. In this
contribution we present a revised version of this model, called Sibyll 2.3c,
that is further improved by adjusting particle production spectra to match the
expectation of Feynman scaling in the fragmentation region. After a brief
introduction to the changes implemented in Sibyll 2.3 and 2.3c with respect to
Sibyll 2.1, the current predictions of the model for the depth of shower
maximum, the number of muons at ground, and the energy spectrum of muons in
extensive air showers are presented.

to the Lipatov vertex due to a finite target thickness. These arise from
electric field insertions into the eikonal Wilson lines. We then derive a
$k_T$-factorization formula for single inclusive gluon production at NNE
accuracy and find that nuclear effects are absent. We also analyze NNE

We investigate the structure of the experimentally significant electroweak
bosonic loop corrections to the leptonic weak mixing angle, the leptonic
Z-boson decay width, and the W-boson mass. It is shown that the bosonic
corrections that have a sizable effect at the present level of experimental
accuracy are directly related to the use of the Fermi constant G_F as input
parameter for analyzing the LEP observables. Indeed, if the (theoretical value
of the) leptonic width of the W boson is used as input parameter instead of the
low-energy parameter G_F determined from muon decay, fermion-loop corrections
are sufficient for compatibility between theory and experiment.

A generalized mass formula is used to calculate the neutron and proton drip
lines of normal and lambda hypernuclei treating non-strange and strange nuclei
on the same footing. Calculations suggest existence of several bound
hypernuclei whose normal cores are unbound. Addition of Lambda or,
Lambda-Lambda hyperon(s) to a normal nucleus is found to cause shifts of the
neutron and proton driplines from their conventional limits.

A generalized mass formula is used to calculate the neutron and proton drip lines of normal and lambda hypernuclei treating non-strange and strange nuclei on the same footing. Calculations suggest existence of several bound hypernuclei whose normal cores are unbound. Addition of Lambda or, Lambda-Lambda hyperon(s) to a normal nucleus is found to cause shifts of the neutron and proton driplines from their conventional limits.

The numerical study of QED radiative corrections in the low x region for the
H1 experiment at HERA was performed. The analytical program TERAD91 was used to
obtain the values of the radiative correction factor for the first measurement
of the proton structure function F2(x,Q2) in the range x= 10^{-2} - 10^{-4} and
5 < Q2 < 80 GeV2.

The primordial nucleosinthesys of the element can be influenced by the
transitions of phase that take place after the Big Bang, such as the QCD
transition. In order to study the effect of this phase transition, in this work
we compute the time evolution of thermodynamical quantities of the early
universe, focusing on temperature and energy density fluctuations, by solving
the relevant equations of motion using as input the lattice QCD equation of
state to describe the strongly interacting matter in the early universe plasma.
We also study the effect of a primordial strong magnetic field by means of a
phenomenological equation of state. Our results show that small inhomogeneities
of strongly interacting matter in the early Universe are moderately damped
during the crossover.

We present a simple supersymmetric model of split families consistent with
flavor limits that preserves the successful prediction of gauge coupling
unification and naturally accounts for the Higgs mass. The model provides an
intricate connection between the Standard Model flavor hierarchy,
supersymmetric flavor problem, unification and the Higgs mass. In particular
unification favors a naturally large Higgs mass from D-term corrections to the
quartic couplings in the Higgs potential. The unification scale is lowered with
a stable proton that can account for the success of b-tau Yukawa coupling
unification. The sparticle spectrum is similar to that of natural
supersymmetry, as motivated by the supersymmetric flavor problem and recent LHC
bounds, with a heavy scalar particle spectrum except for a moderately light
stop required for viable electroweak symmetry breaking. Finally, Higgs
production and decays, NLSP decays, and new states associated with extending
the Standard Model gauge group above the TeV scale provide signatures for
experimental searches at the LHC.

Looking forward to photon-coupled long-lived particles II: dark axion
portal

The dark axion portal is a dimension-5 coupling between an axion-like
particle (ALP), a photon, and a dark photon, which is one of the targets of the
intensity frontier searches looking for $\sim\,$sub-GeV long-lived particles
(LLPs). In this work, we re-examine the limits set by existing detectors such
as CHARM and NuCal, and by future experiments such as FASER2, MATHUSLA, and
SHiP. We extend previous works by i) considering several mass regimes of the
Dark Sector (DS) particles, leading to an extended lifetime regime of the
unstable species, ii) including LLPs production occurring in previously
neglected vector meson decays that actually dominate the LLP yield, and iii) by
implementing secondary LLP production. It takes place by Primakoff-like
upscattering of lighter DS species into LLP on tungsten layers of neutrino
emulsion detector FASER$\nu$2. This process will allow FASER2 to cover a
significant portion of the $\gamma c\tau \sim 1\,m$ region of the parameter
space that is otherwise difficult to cover due to the large ($\sim O(100)\,m$)
distance between the primary LLP production point and the decay vessel, where
LLP decays take place, which is required in typical beam-dumb experiments for
SM background suppression.

The structure of gauged R supergravity Lagrangians is reviewed, and we
consider models with a hidden sector plus light fields of the MSSM. A simple
potential for the hidden sector is presented which has a global minimum with
zero cosmological constant and spontaneously broken SUSY and R-symmetry. The
$\rm U(1)_R$ vector multiplet acquires a Planck scale mass through the Higgs
mechanism, and it decouples at low energy. Due to very interesting
cancellations, the $\rm U(1)_R$ D-terms also drop out at low energy. Thus no
direct effects of the gauging of R-symmetry remain in the low energy effective
Lagrangian, and this result is model independent, requiring only that
R-symmetry be broken at the Planck scale and $<D> = 0$, where $D$ is the
auxiliary field of the $\rm U(1)_R$ vector multiplet. The low energy theory is
fairly conventional with soft SUSY breaking terms for the MSSM fields. As a
remnant of the gauging of R-symmetry, it also contains light fields, some
required to cancel R-anomalies and others from the hidden sector.

Motivated by new models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking that
predict a light composite higgs boson, we build an effective lagrangian which
describes the Standard Model (with a light Higgs) and vector resonances. We
compute the cross section for the associate production of a higgs and a gauge
boson. For some values of model parameters we find that the cross section is
significantly enhanced with respect to the Standard Model. This enhancement is
similar at the LHC and the Tevatron for the same range of resonance mass.

In this paper, we investigate the spectra of the prospective hidden-bottom
and -charm hexaquark states with quantum numbers $J^{PC }= 0^{++}$, $0^{-+}$,
$1^{++}$ and $1^{--}$ in the framework of QCD sum rules. By constructing
appropriate interpreting currents, the QCD sum rules analyses are performed up
to dimension 12 of the condensates. Results indicate that there exist two
possible baryonium states in $b$-quark sector with masses $11.84 \pm 0.22$ GeV
and $11.72 \pm 0.26$ GeV for $0^{++}$ and $1^{--}$, respectively. The
corresponding hidden-charm partners are found lying respectively at $5.19 \pm
0.24$ GeV and $4.78 \pm 0.23$ GeV. Note that these baryonium states are all
above the dibaryon thresholds, which enables their dominant decay modes could
be measured at BESIII, BELLEII, and LHCb detectors.

Mechanisms for Majorana neutrino mass generation can be classified according
to the level at which the Weinberg operator is generated. The different
possibilities can be sorted in "canonical" tree level and loop-induced
realizations, the latter being motivated by their potential experimental
testability. Here we discuss the one- and two-loop cases, paying special
attention to systematic classification schemes which aim at building a full
picture of neutrino mass generation.

The complete and concurrent Homestake and Kamiokande solar neutrino data sets
(including backgrounds), when compared to detailed model predictions, provide
no unambiguous indication of the solution to the solar neutrino problem. All
neutrino-based solutions, including time-varying models, provide reasonable
fits to both the 3 year concurrent data and the full 20 year data set. A simple
constant B neutrino flux reduction is ruled out at greater than the 4$\sigma$
level for both data sets. While such a flux reduction provides a marginal fit
to the unweighted averages of the concurrent data, it does not provide a good
fit to the average of the full 20 year sample. Gallium experiments may not be
able to distinguish between the currently allowed neutrino-based possibilities.
