Effect of earth rotation on pair production of Standard Model Higgs bosons at linear colliders in the noncommutative space-time

Abstract

We study the neutral Higgs boson pair production through $e^{+} e^{-}$ collision in the noncommutative(NC) extension of the standard model using the Seiberg-Witten maps of this to the first order of the noncommutative parameter $\Theta_{\mu \nu}$. This process is forbidden in the standard model at the tree level with background space-time being commutative. After including the effects of earth's rotation we analyse the time-averaged cross section of the pair production of Higgs boson (in the light of LEP II and LHC data) at the future Linear Collider which can be quite significant for the NC scale $\Lambda$ lying in the range $0.3 - 1.0$ TeV. For the 125 GeV Higgs mass(the most promising value of Higgs mass as reported by LHC), we find the NC scale as $330 \rm{GeV}$ $\le \Lambda \le 660 \rm{GeV}$ and using $m_h = 129(127.5) \rm{GeV}$ (the lower threshold value of the excluded region of $m_h$ reported by ATLAS(CMS) collaborations of LHC), we find the bound on $\Lambda$ as: (i) $339 (336) \rm{GeV} \le \Lambda \le 677 (670) \rm{GeV}$ corresponding to the Linear Collider energy $E_{com} = 500 \rm{GeV}$.

Axionic Wormholes in Metric-Affine Gravity

The axion is a promising candidate for solving the strong CP problem. To solve this problem, the global U(1) symmetry must be preserved to a high degree of accuracy. However, it is well known that global symmetries are explicitly violated by quantum gravity effects, giving rise to what is referred to as the axion quality problem. In this paper, we investigate axionic wormholes as a source of explicit U(1) violation in Metric-Affine Gravity. This framework allows for spacetime torsion and non-metricity, which accommodate additional curvature-like and topological terms, such as the Holst and Nieh--Yan terms, that are absent from the metric and Palatini formalisms. We show that non-minimal couplings to these terms modify the wormhole dynamics and enhance the Euclidean wormhole action, thereby alleviating the axion quality problem. We also find that the viable parameter space is enlarged when two of these couplings are simultaneously present. We further identify representative parameter regions where the alleviation of the axion quality problem is compatible with inflationary constraints.

Qubit-Qutrit Quantum Tomography of hadronic $\Lambda\phi$ and $\Lambda K^{\ast 0}$ systems

Quantum-information observables have emerged in recent years as new tools in nuclear and particle physics, from entanglement in top-quark pairs to spin correlations in $\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}$ production. Extending these studies to unequal-spin hadronic final states poses a fundamental challenge: the $6\times6$ density matrix of a qubit-qutrit system contains 35 independent spin parameters, but the decays of $\Lambda V$ pairs, with $V=\phi$ or $K^{*0}$, provide access to only 23 due to the hidden vector polarization from the strong decay. In this Letter, we formulate a qubit-qutrit quantum tomography (QQQT) technique for these spin-$\tfrac{1}{2}\otimes1$ systems and establish exact criteria for entanglement certification from the \textit{incomplete} density matrix. Compared with the $\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}$ system, QQQT of $\Lambda\phi$ and $\Lambda K^{*0}$ provides a new probe of nonperturbative QCD hadronization, enabling a direct comparison of the spin evolution of entangled quark pairs produced from the vacuum as they hadronize into a baryon or a vector meson.

Twist decomposition of exclusive heavy meson production cross sections

We study the twist decomposition of the total cross sections for exclusive heavy vector meson electroproduction and photoproduction in the $\gamma^\ast p$ processes, within the leading logarithmic $1/x$ BFKL formalism. The Mellin transforms of the impact factors of the vector meson are calculated. We show that the higher twist contributions are strongly suppressed in the low-$x$ kinematical regime. Possible enhancement of the higher twists effects for nuclei targets is discussed.
