Implication of cosmological upper bound on the validity of golden ratio neutrino mixings under radiative corrections

Abstract

We study the implication of the most recent cosmological upper bound on the sum of three neutrino masses, on the validity of the golden ratio (GR) neutrino mixings defined at high energy seesaw scale, considering the possibility for generating low energy values of neutrino oscillation parameters through radiative corrections in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). The present study is consistent with the most stringent and latest Planck data on cosmological upper bound, $\sum |m_{i}| < 0.12$ eV. For the radiative generation of sin$\theta_{13}$ from an exact form of golden ratio (GR) neutrino mixing matrix defined at high seesaw energy scale, we take opposite CP parity mass eigenvalues ($m_{1},-m_{2},m_{3}$) with a non-zero real value of $m_{3}$, and a larger value of $\tan\beta > 60$ in order to include large effects of radiative corrections in the calculation. The present analysis including the CP violating Dirac phase and SUSY threshold corrections, shows the validity of golden ratio neutrino mixings defined at high seesaw energy scale in the normal hierarchical (NH) model. The numerical analysis with the variations of four parameters viz. $M_{R}$, $m_{s}$, $\tan\beta$ and $\bar{\eta_{b}}$, shows that the best result for the validity is obtained at $M_{R}=10^{15}$ GeV, $m_{s}=1$ TeV, $\tan\beta=68$ and $\bar{\eta_{b}}=0.01$. However, the analysis based on inverted hierarchical (IH) model does not conform with this latest Planck data on cosmological bound but it still conforms with earlier Planck cosmological upper bound $\sum |m_{i}|< 0.23$ eV, thus indicating possible preference of NH over IH models.

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.
