Tera-Leptons Shadows over Sinister Universe

Abstract

The role of Sinister Heavy Fermions in recent Glashow's SU(3)*SU(2)*SU(2)'*U(1) model is to offer in a unique frame relic Helium-like products (an ingenious candidate to the dark matter puzzle), a solution to the See-Saw mechanism for light neutrino masses as well as to strong CP violation problem in QCD. The Sinister model requires a three additional families of leptons and quarks, but only the lightest of them Heavy U-quark and E-"electron" are stable. Final neutral Helium-like UUUEE state is an ideal evanescent dark-matter candidate. However it is reached by multi-body interactions along a tail of more manifest secondary frozen blocks. They should be now here polluting the surrounding matter. Moreover, in opposition to effective pair quark annihilations, there is no such an early or late tera-lepton pairs suppressions, because:a) electromagnetic interactions are "weaker" than nuclear ones and b) helium ion 4He++ is able to attract and capture, E-, fixing it into a hybrid tera helium "ion" trap. This leads to a pile up of relic (4HeE)+ traces, a lethal compound for any Sinister Universe. This capture leaves no Tera-Lepton frozen in Ep relic (otherwise an ideal catalyzer to achieve effective late E+E- annihilations possibly saving the model). The (4HeE)+ Coulomb screening is also avoiding the synthesis of the desired UUUEE hidden dark matter gas. The e(4HeE)+ behave chemically like an anomalous hydrogen isotope.Also tera-positronium (eE+) relics are over-abundant and they behave like an anomalous hydrogen atom: these gases do not fit by many orders of magnitude known severe bounds on hydrogen anomalous isotope, making grave shadows over a Sinister Universe. However a surprising and resolver role for Tera-Pions in UHECR astrophysics has been revealed.

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.
