Entanglement spectrum ordering and flavor polarization in the two-flavor Schwinger model at vacuum angle $θ= π$

Entanglement spectra in gauge theories can encode both symmetry breaking and the organization of gauge sectors. In the two-flavor Schwinger model at vacuum angle $θ=π$, we find that the joint Schmidt distribution $p_{Q_A,F_A}$, labeled by the subsystem gauge charge $Q_A$ and flavor imbalance $F_A$, reveals a cut-dependent gauge-sector hierarchy and a mass-induced flavor asymmetry: changing the staggered cut reorganizes the gauge-charge distribution $p_{Q_A}$, while mass imbalance breaks the $F_A\leftrightarrow-F_A$ symmetry of the conditional flavor distribution $p_{F_A|Q_A}$. Defining the combined weight $W_F^{(q)}=p_{q,+1}+p_{q,-1}$ and conditional polarization $\mathcal P_F^{(q)}=(p_{q,+1}-p_{q,-1})/W_F^{(q)}$, we find that changing the cut reverses the weight hierarchy, $W_F^{(-1)}>W_F^{(+1)}$ at unit-cell boundaries but $W_F^{(+1)}>W_F^{(-1)}$ at intra-cell cuts, while mass imbalance drives $\mathcal P_F^{(q)}$ away from zero with a $q$-dependent cut response. Symmetry resolution therefore separates gauge-sector ordering, sector weight, and flavor polarization that are mixed in the globally ordered entanglement spectrum.

Determination of the initial condition for the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation with transformers

In the high-energy limit of QCD, scattering off nucleons and nuclei can be described in terms of Wilson-line correlators whose energy dependence is perturbative. The energy dependence of the two-point correlator, called the dipole amplitude, is governed by the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation. The initial condition for the BK equation can be fitted to the experimental data, which requires evolving the dipole amplitude for a large set of different parameter values. In this work, we train a transformer model to learn the energy dependence of the dipole amplitude, skipping the time-consuming numerical evaluation of the BK equation. The transformer predicts the learned dipole amplitude and the leading order inclusive deep inelastic scattering cross section very accurately, allowing for efficient fitting of the initial condition to the experimental data. Using this setup, we fit the initial condition of the BK equation to the inclusive deep inelastic scattering data from HERA and consider two different starting points $x_0$ for the evolution. We find better agreement with the experimental data for a smaller $x_0$. This work paves the way for future studies involving global fits of the dipole amplitude at leading order and beyond.

New Physics Search at the CEPC: a General Perspective

The Circular Electron-Positron Collider (CEPC), a proposed next-generation Higgs factory, provides new opportunities to explore physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). With its clean electron-positron collision environment and the ability to collect large samples of Higgs, W, and Z bosons, the CEPC enables precision measurements and searches for new physics. This white paper outlines the CEPC's discovery potential, including studies of exotic decays of the Higgs, Z, and top quarks, dark matter and dark sector phenomena, long-lived particles, supersymmetry, and neutrino-related signatures. Advanced detector technologies and reconstruction techniques, such as one-to-one correspondence reconstruction and jet origin identification, significantly improve sensitivity to rare and weakly interacting processes. The CEPC is particularly well suited to probe the electroweak phase transition and test models of electroweak baryogenesis and dark sector interactions. In addition, global fit analyses highlight the CEPC's complementary role in constraining a wide range of new physics scenarios. These features position the CEPC as a powerful tool for exploring the next frontier in fundamental particle physics in the post-Higgs discovery era.

Differential distributions for Single Top Quark Production at the LHeC

We present a phenomenological study of the single top (anti-)quark production with leptonic decays at the Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC) at the next-to-leading-order (NLO) in QCD. We focus on various differential distributions in a fiducial region. The NLO corrections can reduce the fiducial cross section by 14%. We find the NLO predictions exhibit strong stability under scale variations for most observables considered while the scale variations at the leading-order (LO) dominated in the theoretical uncertainties. We propose a method of determining the top-quark mass using the measurement of the average transverse momentum of the charged lepton. The scale variations at the NLO induce a theoretical uncertainty of about 1.3 GeV of the extracted top-quark mass. The statistical error of the extracted top-quark mass amounts to 1.1 GeV. We also investigate the impact of the QCD corrections and the scale variations in searches of the anomalous Wtb couplings.
