Muon and Electron $(g-2)$ Anomalies with Non-Holomorphic Interactions in MSSM

Abstract

The recent Fermilab muon $g-2$ result and the same for electron due to fine-structure constant measurement through ${}^{133}{\rm Cs}$ matter-wave interferometry are probed in relation to MSSM with non-holomorphic (NH) trilinear soft SUSY breaking terms, referred as NHSSM. Supersymmetric contributions to charged lepton $(g-2)_l$ can be enhanced via the new trilinear terms involving a wrong Higgs coupling with left and right-handed scalars. Unlike many MSSM based analyses, the model does not require a light electroweakino, or light sleptons, or unequal left and right slepton masses, or a very large higgsino mass parameter. The first part of the analysis involves $(g-2)_\mu$ constraint along with limits from Higgs mass, B-physics, collider data, direct detection of dark matter (DM) while focusing on a higgsino DM which is underabundant in nature. We then impose the constraint from electron $g-2$ where a large Yukawa threshold corrections (an outcome of NHSSM) and opposite signs of trilinear NH coefficients associated with $\mu$ and $e$ fields are used to satisfy the dual limits of $\Delta {a_\mu}$ and $\Delta {a_e}$ (where the latter comes with negative sign). Varying Yukawa threshold corrections further provide the necessary flavor-dependent enhancement of $\Delta {a_e}/m_e^2$ compared to that of $\Delta {a_\mu}/m_\mu^2$. A larger Yukawa threshold correction through $A^\prime_e$ for $y_e$ also takes away the direct proportionality of $a_e$ with respect to $\tan\beta$. With a finite intercept, $a_e$ becomes only an increasing function of $\tan\beta$. We identified the available parameter space in the two cases while also applying the ATLAS data on slepton pair production in the plane of slepton mass parameter and the mass of the lightest neutralino.

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.
