Significance of broken $ \mu-\tau $ Symmetry in correlating $ \delta_{CP} $, $ \theta_{13} $, Lightest neutrino Mass and neutrinoless double beta decay $ 0\nu\beta\beta $

Abstract

Leptonic CP Violating Phase $ \delta_{CP} $ in the light neutrino sector and leptogenesis via present matter antimatter asymmetry of the Universe entails each other. Probing CP violation in light neutrino oscillation is one of the challenging tasks today. The reactor mixing angle $ \theta_{13} $ measured in reactor experiments, LBL, DUNE with high precision in neutrino experiments indicates towards the vast dimension of scope to detect $ \delta_{CP} $. The correlation between leptonic Dirac CPV phase $ \delta_{CP} $, reactor mixing angle $ \theta_{13} $, lightest neutrino mass $ m_{1} $ and matter antimatter asymmetry of the Universe within the framework of $ \mu-\tau $ symmetry breaking assuming the type I seesaw dominance is extensively studied here. Small tiny breaking of the $ \mu-\tau $ symmetry allows a large Dirac CP violating phase in neutrino oscillation which in turn is characterised by awareness of measured value of $ \theta_{13} $ and to provide a hint towards a better understanding of the experimentally observed near maximal value of $ \nu_{\mu} -\nu_{\tau} $ mixing angle $ \theta_{23}\simeq \frac{\pi}{4}$. Precise breaking of the $ \mu-\tau $ symmetry is achieved by adding a 120 plet Higgs to the 10 $+$ $\bar{126}$ dimensional representation of Higgs. The estimated three dimensional density parameter space of lightest neutrino mass $ m_{1} $, $ \delta_{CP} $, reactor mixing angle $ \theta_{13} $, is constrained here for the requirement of producing the observed value of baryon asymmetry of the Universe through the mechanism of leptogenesis. Carrying out numerical analysis the allowed parameter space of $ m_{1} $, $ \delta_{CP} $, $ \theta_{13} $, is found out which can produce the observed baryon to photon density ratio of the Universe.

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.
