Application of flavor moonshine

Abstract

In our previous paper [1], we presented the application of Moonshine to the flavor physics based on the work of Cohn and Deutsch [2] and Bagger and West. Conway and S. Norton [3] and T.Eguchi, H.Ooguri and Y.Tachikawa[4]. We present here the extension of our previous paper [1] by including the supersymmetry and the modular symmetry. We calculate all the lepton masses and the quark masses and their super partner masses by using the one input particle mass for each family. The two valued modular function is defined in equation(7). We define the two valued modular function of degree K in equation (7). We use K = 1 two valued modular function for the charged leptons and k = 2 two valued modular function for the neutrino and for the up quarks and k = 3 two valued modular function for the down quarks. We emphasize that we have three particle masses which can be measured by the existing accelerators such as KEK B factory or CERN LHC. One is super electron mass "Me,s =847 MeV" which is slightly lower than the proton mass. The Super d, s and b quark masses are 0 GeV, 5.56 GeV, and 2193.4 GeV. Super down quark mass is 0 and super strange quark mass can be measured both in KEKB and in CERN LHC. The super bottom quark mass can be measured only in LHC.

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.
