${\mu}$LHC: Antimuon Ring and HL-LHC based ${\mu}^+p$ Collider

Conceptual design and performance evaluation of HL-LHC based antimuon-proton collider (${\mu}$LHC) are presented. Leveraging the ${\mu}$TRISTAN concept based on established J-PARC ultra-cold ${\mu}^{+}$ beam technology, ${\mu}$LHC will give the opportunity to achieve a 5.3 TeV center-of-mass energy, significantly surpassing EIC and LHeC. Two booster ring options for ${\mu}^{+}$ acceleration, namely, a ${\mu}$TRISTAN-based and a repurposed LHeC ERL-based systems, are explored. Achievable luminosities are predicted to exceed $10^{33} cm^{-2}s^{-1}$. The ${\mu}$LHC offers substantially wider kinematic plane coverage, particularly in small-x and high-$Q^{2}$ regions, significantly contributing to QCD basics and Higgs boson properties. Its unique potential for BSM physics extends to muon-related phenomena like excited muons, color-octet muons, leptoquarks, and contact interactions. A possible detector concept is also outlined. Given the maturity of ultra-cold ${\mu}^{+}$ beam technology, ${\mu}$LHC is highly feasible for earlier realization than the muon collider, positioning it as a critical tool for the future of high energy physics.

A Safer, Smaller, Cleaner Subcritical Thorium Fission - Deuteron Fusion Hybrid Reactor: DD Collider Instead of Muonic Fusion

Fossil fuels, which meet most of humanity's energy needs, cause climate change due to their high carbon emissions. There are two types of energy sources that can replace fossil fuels: renewable and nuclear. Nuclear energy sources are more advantageous in terms of efficiency and sustainability. The use of Thorium as nuclear fuel in fusion reactors will contribute to the reduction of radioactive waste, due to the much lower production of transuranics. Fusion reactors, which are considered promising, are still in the R&D phase. In this respect, hybrid fusion-fission reactors seem more promising and the recently proposed combination of muon-catalyzed DD fusion with a cascade thorium reactor is worthy of appreciation. In this study, we show that using the DD collider instead of muonic fusion has significant advantages.

Luminosity and Physics Considerations on HL-LHC and HE-LHC based mu-p Colliders

Construction of future Muon Collider tangential to the Large Hadron Collider will give opportunity to realize mu-p collisions at multi-TeV center of mass energies. Using nominal parameters of high luminosity and high energy upgrades of the LHC, as well as design parameters of muon colliders, it is shown that L_mu-p of order of 10^33 cm^-2s^-1 is achievable for different options with sqrt(s)_mu-p from 4.58 TeV to 12.7 TeV. Certainly, proposed mu-p colliders have a huge potential for clarifying QCD basics and searches for new physics.

Mass Pattern of the SM Fermions: Flavor Democracy Revisited

Mass pattern of the SM fermions is one of the most important mysterious in particle physics. Flavor Democracy could shed light on this mystery. Addition of isosinglet quark and isosinglet lepton give opportunity to obtain masses of charged leptons and quarks of the 2nd and 3rd family due to small deviations of full Flavor Democracy.

A Minimal Fermion-Scalar Preonic Model

A minimal fermion-scalar preonic model containing two fermionic and one scalar preons is proposed. This scheme allows to prevent the occurrence of undesired SM-level particles, namely leptons and quarks with unusual electric charges. Similar to the previous FS models, color-octet leptons and color-sextet quarks, which are expected to have masses much lower than the compositeness scale, are predicted. Observation of these particles could provide first indications of preonic models. FCC (SppC) pp option will give opportunity to probe $m_{q_{6}}$ up to 48 (75) TeV and $m_{l_{8}}$ up to 15 (27) TeV within one year operation at nominal luminosity. FCC/SppC based ep and $μ$p colliders will essentially enlarge covered mass region, namely, $m_{e_{8}}$ up to 23/27 TeV and $m_{μ_{8}}$ up to 68/80 TeV.

FCC Based Lepton-Hadron and Photon-Hadron Colliders: Luminosity and Physics

Construction of future electron-positron colliders (or dedicated electron linac) and muon colliders (or dedicated muon ring) tangential to Future Circular Collider (FCC) will give opportunity to utilize highest energy proton and nucleus beams for lepton-hadron and photon-hadron collisions. Luminosity values of FCC based ep, \mup, eA, \muA, \gammap and \gammaA colliders are estimated. Multi-TeV center of mass energy ep colliders based on the FCC and linear colliders (LC) are considered in detail. Parameters of upgraded versions of the FCC proton beam are determined to optimize luminosity of electron-proton collisions keeping beam-beam effects in mind. Numerical calculations are performed using a currently being developed collision point simulator. It is shown that L_{ep}\sim10^{32}\,cm^{-2}s^{-1} can be achieved with LHeC-like upgrade of the FCC parameters.

SppC based energy frontier lepton-proton colliders: luminosity and physics

In this study, main parameters of Super proton-proton Collider (SppC) based lepton-proton colliders are estimated. For electron beam parameters, highest energy International Linear Collider (ILC) and Plasma Wake Field Accelerator-Linear Collider (PWFA-LC) options are taken into account. For muon beams, 1.5 TeV and 3 TeV center of mass energy Muon Collider parameters are used. In addition, ultimate $μ$p collider which assumes construction of additional 50 TeV muon ring in the SppC tunnel is considered as well. It is shown that $L_{ep}$ $\sim$ $10^{32}$ $cm^{-2}s^{-1}$ can be achieved with moderate upgrade of the SppC proton beam parameters. Physics search potential of proposed lepton-proton colliders is illustrated by considering small Bjorken x region as an example of SM physics and resonant production of color octet leptons as an example of BSM physics.

Color Octet Electron Search Potential of the FCC Based e-p Colliders

Resonant production of color octet electron, e_{8}, at the FCC based ep colliders has been analyzed. It is shown that e-FCC will cover much a wider region of e_{8} masses compared to the LHC. Moreover, with highest electron beam energy, e_{8} search potential of the e-FCC exceeds that of FCC pp collider. If e_{8} is discovered earlier by the FCC pp collider, e-FCC will give opportunity to handle very important additional information. For example, compositeness scale can be probed up to hundreds TeV region.

Possible discovery channel for fourth chiral family up-quark at the LHC

Resonant production of fourth chiral family up quark at the LHC via anomalous interactions have been analyzed. It is shown that search for resonances in W^{+}b final states could lead to discovery of the fourth chiral family and simultaneously determine scale of the new physics, presumabely related to the quark and lepton compositeness. Obtained results emphasize an importance of W-leading jet invariant mass analysis in search for W+jets final states at the LHC, both with and without b-tagging.

Resonant production of leptogluons at the FCC based lepton-hadron colliders

Resonant production of leptogluons at the FCC based ep and \mup colliders have been analyzed. It is shown that e-FCC and μ-FCC will cover much wider region of e_{8} and μ_{8} masses than the LHC. While leptogluons with appropriate masses (if exist) will be discovered earlier by the FCC pp collider, lepton-proton colliders will give opportunity to handle very important additional information. For example, compositeness scale can be probed up to multi-hundred TeV region.

Majorana Neutrino and $W_{R}$ at TeV scale $ep$ Colliders

Production of heavy Majorana neutrino $N_{e}$ predicted by left-right symmetric extension of the Standard Model at future {\normalsize TeV} scale $ep$ colliders have been considered. In order to estimate potential of $ep$ colliders for $N_{e}$ search we consider back-groundless process $e^{-}p\rightarrow e^{+}X$ which is consequence of Majorana nature of $N_{e}$. It is shown that {\normalsize linac-LHC} and {\normalsize linac-FCC} based $ep$ colliders will cover much wider regions of $N_{e}$ and $W_{R}$ masses than corresponding linear electron-positron colliders.

New IceCube data and color octet neutrino interpretation of the PeV energy events

IceCube collaboration has published two papers on ultrahigh energy neutrinos observation, recently. They have used the data collected in two years in their first publication, which reveals observation of two PeV energy neutrino events. The second publication of the collaboration including more data has also confirmed main features of the former paper. In literature, various interpretations of the IceCube data have been proposed. In this study, it is shown that PeV energy neutrino events observed by the IceCube collaboration can be interpreted as resonance production of color octet neutrinos with masses in $500-800$ GeV range.

Potential of the LHeC for probing small x(g) region via c\bar{c} and b\bar{b} production have been investigated. Obtained results clearly show the advantage of gamma-p collider option. Measurement of x(g) down to 3\times10^{-6} seems to be reachable which is two order smaller than HERA coverage.
