About influence of the deuteron electric and magnetic plarizabities on measurement of the deuteron EDM in a storage ring

Abstract

In the present paper influence of tensor electric and magnetic polarizabilities on spin evolution in the resonance deuteron EDM experiment is considered in details. It is shown that besides EDM the electric and magnetic polarizabilities also contribute to the vertical spin component P_3. Moreover, the electric polarizability contributes to the P_3 component even when the deuteron EDM is supposed to be zero and thereby the electric polarizability can imitate the EDM contribution. It is shown that unlike the vertical component of the spin P_3 the component P_{33} of polarization tensor does not contain contribution from the electric polarizability, whereas contribution from the magnetic polarizability reveals only when the deuteron EDM differs from zero. Moreover, it is also shown that when the angle $\vartheta$ between the spin direction and the vertical axis meets the condition $\sin \vartheta=\sqrt{2/3}$ ($\cos \vartheta=\sqrt{1/3}$), the initial value of $P_{33}$ appears $P_{33}(0)=0$. As a result, EDM contribution to the measured signal linearly growth in time starting from zero that is important for measurements. Therefore, measurement of the P_{33} component of deuteron tensor polarization seems to be of particular interest, especially because the nonzero component P_{33} appearance on its own indicates the EDM presence (in contrast to the P_3 component, which appearance can be aroused by the tensor electric polarizability, rather than EDM).

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.
