Charged lepton flavor violating decays and $(g-2)_{e_a}$ in an extended standard model with singlet and triplet leptoquarks

We study the anomalous magnetic moments of charged leptons and their lepton flavor-violating decays in a Standard Model extension containing one $SU(2)_L$singlet and one $SU(2)_L$ triplet scalar leptoquark. Our results reveal significant correlations among $Δa_{e,μ}$ and the decay rates of$e_b\to e_aγ$, and $h,Z\to e_b^\pm e_a^\mp$. In particular, the branching ratios $\mathrm{Br}(e_b\to e_aγ)$ and $\mathrm{Br}(h,Z\to e_b e_a)$ exhibit significant correlations. The model cannot simultaneously accommodate sizable values of $|Δa_e|=\mathcal{O}(10^{-13})$ and $|Δa_μ|=\mathcal{O}(10^{-10})$. For $|Δa_μ|=\mathcal{O}(10^{-10})$ and Br$(μ\to eγ)>10^{-15}$, the decay rates are suppressed to Br$(τ\to eγ)<\mathcal{O}(10^{-12})$ and Br$(h\to τe)<\mathcal{O}(10^{-6})$, while the remaining ones can reach the forthcoming experimental sensitivities. Conversely, for$|Δa_e|=\mathcal{O}(10^{-13})$, one obtains the suppressed decay rates Br$(τ\to μγ)<\mathcal{O}(10^{-11})$ and Br$(h\to τμ)<\mathcal{O}(10^{-7})$.

$(g-2)_{\ell}$ and LFV decays in a $U(1)_{L_μ -L_τ}$ left-right model with inverse seesaw neutrinos

In the framework of a $U(1)_{L_μ -L_τ}$ left-right model with inverse seesaw neutrinos recently proposed, we show that one-loop contributions from heavy singly charged Higgs bosons to the anomalous magnetic moments of charged leptons $(g-2)_{e,μ}$ can accommodate the observed discrepancies, of $10^{-9}$ and $\mathcal{O}(10^{-13})$ for the muon and electron, respectively. Meanwhile, all lepton-flavor violating decay rates for $h\to e_b^\pm e_a^\mp $, $Z\to e_b^\pm e_a^\mp$, and $e_b\to e_a γ$ are found to be highly suppressed as a consequence of the gauged $U(1)_{L_μ-L_τ}$ symmetry.

Detailed analysis of possible new-physics effects in the semileptonic decay $B_s \to D_s^{(*)}τ\barν$

We study the semileptonic decays $B_s \to D_s^{(*)}τ\barν$ as a promising probe for new physics (NP) beyond the standard model (SM). The extension of the SM is done through the introduction of four-fermion operators beyond the $V-A$ structure with the corresponding Wilson coefficients characterizing their contribution. The constraints on these coefficients are obtained from recent experimental data. Form factors describing hadron transitions are calculated in our covariant quark model with infrared confinement. Theoretical predictions for the full set of observables in these channels are provided. We analyze possible NP effects to be tested in future experiments.

Inflation with the standard and Randall-Sundrum model in the Two-time Physics

We propose a scalar inflationary potential as $V(ϕ)=M^4ϕ^{2n-2}(ϕ^{2n}+m^{2n})^{1/n-1}$. This potential is similar to the shaft inflation one. However, they satisfy the $Z_2$ symmetry for all $n$. The potential may come from the Higgs-dilaton potential in the two-time (2T) physics. The slow-roll scenario is recomputed in the 4-dimension (4D) and Randall-Sundrum II (RSII) frameworks. The tensor-to-scalar ratio in the RSII model is always higher than in the 4D model and is in good agreement with the experimental data of BICEP2 and Planck. Comparing this with Planck data, we estimate $M_5$ to be around $[1-2]\times 10^{16}$ GeV. Furthermore, the potential allows much lower scalar field exponents than other potentials, which results in high agreement with experimental data. Moreover, the results also reinforce the models that have the extra dimensions, should be focused. The inflation data can be used to test for the existence of the extra dimensions.

Hawking-Page phase transitions of black holes in the Hamiltonian formalism

The Hawking-Page phase transition represents a critical phenomenon in black hole thermodynamics, marking the point at which a thermal radiation state in anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime becomes unstable. In this work, we apply the Hamiltonian formalism to study the Hawking-Page phase transition of the Banados-Teitelboim-Zenelli (BTZ) black hole in on-shell and off-shell configuration. The results show that the Hamiltonian of the black hole system corresponds to its thermodynamic free energy. Next, we examine the Hawking-Page phase transition of the Reissner-Nordstrom (RN) black hole and the Kerr-Newmann (KN) black hole, and compare our results with existing results in on-shell case. We then further extend this method to the previously unexplored off-shell case of the RN and KN black holes, thereby demonstrating the influence of the electric charge and the rotation of the black hole on their Hawking-Page phase transition. The results show that, in the presence of electric charge and totation, enables the coexistence of black hole and the thermal soliton states.

Electroweak phase transition with the confinement scale of the strong sector or dilaton in the minimal composite Higgs model

The minimal Composite Higgs model (MCHM) provides an effective trigger for the Baryogenesis scenario through the confinement scale of the strong sector ($f$) or dilaton ($χ$). $f$ is a parameter with mass dimension, which stores the resonances of particles at high energies and has a suitable value of about $800$ GeV. But when $300$ GeV $\le f \le 400$ GeV, the effective Higgs potential has a first-order electroweak phase transition. Therefore, although $f$ cannot be a perfect trigger, it does suggest an effective approach that accommodates the resonances of particles. Thus the investigation of the electroweak phase transition according to $f$ has confirmed that the inclusion of the dilaton in the effective potential is reasonable. Accordingly, we derive a dilaton potential with appropriate parameter domains and $f=800$ GeV; the mass of the dilaton ranges from $300$ GeV to $700$ GeV, which will give an electroweak phase transition strength greater than $1$ and less than $3$, enough for a first-order phase transition. This is a direct and clear evidence of the triggers for the first-order EWPT in the MCHM.

Twin electroweak bubble nucleation and gravitational wave under the $S_3$ symmetry of two-Higgs-doublet model

Sphaleron electroweak phase transition (EWPT) is calculated in two phase transition stages, thereby showing that the twin (or double) bubble nucleation structure of the phase transition and gravitational wave is in the investigation area of future detectors. With $v^2=v^2_1+v^2_2$ ($v_1$ and $v_2$ are two vacuum average values (VEV)) and $a=v^2/v_2^2$ which affects the expansion of bubbles during two phase transitions. The more $a$ increases, the more the expansion of two bubbles is at the same time. This ratio does not greatly affect the sphaleron energy but has an impact on gravitational waves. The larger the masses of the charged Higgs particles are, the greater the gravitational wave energy density ($Ωh^2$) is. When the frequency is in the range $0-1.2$ mHz, $Ωh^2$ will has a maximum value in the range $10^{-12}-10^{-11}$ for all values of $a$ so this can be detected in the future.

Tuning the lasing threshold of quantum well exciton-polaritons under a magnetic field in Faraday geometry: a theoretical study

Polariton lasing is a promising phenomenon with potential applications in next-generation lasers that operate without the need for population inversion. Applying a perpendicular magnetic field to a quantum well (QW) significantly alters the properties of exciton-polaritons. In this theoretical study, we investigate how the lasing threshold of QW exciton-polaritons depends on the magnetic field. By modifying the exciton's effective mass and Rabi splitting, the magnetic field induces notable changes in the relaxation kinetics, which directly affect the lasing threshold. For low-energy pumping, an increase in the magnetic field delays the lasing threshold, while for high-energy pumping, the threshold is reached at much lower pump intensities. Furthermore, increasing both the pump energy and the magnetic field enhances relaxation efficiency, leading to a substantially larger number of condensed polaritons. Our result gives insights into the modulation of exciton-polariton condensation through magnetic fields, with potential implications for the design of low-threshold polariton lasers.

Sphaleron and gravitational wave with the Higgs-Dilaton potential in the Standard Model Two-Time Physics

By introducing a Higgs-Dilaton potential, the 2T model has a trigger for a first order electroweak phase transition, namely for the mass of Dilaton between $300 $ GeV and $550$ GeV. We have also compared the transition strengths in the case with and without daisy loops, the difference being always less than $0.2$. The effective Higgs potential has given a sphaleron energy less than $8.4$ TeV. The timescale of phase transition $(β/H^*)$ is larger than $25$ and less than $34$ in all cases that are sufficient to trigger the first order electroweak phase transition. Gravitational wave energy density caused by this transition, may be detected by future detectors, could indirectly confirm Dilaton.

One-loop induced contributions to the rare decay of $A_0 \rightarrow h_0h_0γ$ in Two Higgs Doublet Models

The analytic expressions for one-loop contributions to the rare decay process $A_0 \rightarrow h_0h_0γ$ within the CP-conserving of Two Higgs Doublet Models are first reported in this paper. Analytic results are presented in term of scalar one-loop Passarino-Veltman functions following the standard output of the packages~{\tt LoopTools} and {\tt Collier}. In this context, physical results for the computed process are easily generated by using one of these packages. The numerical checks are proposed to verify for the analytic results in this paper. The checks rely on the renormalization conditions that the decay amplitude must be the ultraviolet finiteness and infrared finiteness. The amplitude consisting of an external photon always obeys the Ward identity. This will be confirmed numerically in this article. In phenomenological results, the decay rates of $A_0 \rightarrow h_0h_0γ$ are evaluated at several points in the allowed regions of the parameter space. Furthermore, the differential decay widths with respect to the invariant mass of Higgs-pair in final states are studied.

Effect of magnetic field on the Bose-Einstein condensation of quantum well exciton-polaritons

We theoretically investigate the nonlinear effects of a magnetic field on the relaxation process of exciton-polaritons toward Bose-Einstein condensation in GaAs quantum wells. Our study reveals that the modification of the exciton's effective mass, Rabi splitting, and dispersion significantly alters the relaxation rate of polaritons as they approach condensation. By employing a quasi-stationary pump, we clarify the dynamics of the total and condensed polariton populations in response to varying magnetic field strengths. Notably, we demonstrate that under low-energy pumping conditions, the presence of a magnetic field significantly suppresses condensation. This suppression is attributed to the decreased scattering rate between energy levels, which is a consequence of the reduced steepness in the high-energy dispersion. Conversely, increasing both the pump energy and the magnetic field can enhance relaxation efficiency, leading to a substantially larger number of condensed polaritons.

Electroweak phase transition via Dilaton in Two-Time Physics

The Two-time model (2T model) has six dimensions with two dimensions of time, has a Dilaton particle that makes the symmetry breaking differently from the Standard Model. Assuming a soft break of $SP(2,R)$ symmetry, the 2T extension can give a suitable picture of the matter-antimatter asymmetry by the Baryogenesis scenario. By reducing the 2T metric to the Minkowski metric (1T metric) and using a new form of Dilaton potential, we consider the electroweak phase transition picture in the 2T model with the Dilaton as a trigger. Our analysis shows that Electroweak Phase Transition (EWPT) is a first-order phase transition at the $200$ GeV scale, its strength is about $1 - 3.08$ and the mass of Dilaton is in the interval $[345,625]$ GeV. Therefore, the 2T-model indirectly suggests that extra-dimension can also be a source of EWPT.

Dual electroweak phase transition in the two-Higgs-doublet model with the $S_3$ discrete symmetry

In this work, dual electroweak phase transition (EWPT) consisting of two phases, is carefully studied in the two-Higgs-doublet model with the $S_3$ discrete symmetry. The role of $S_3$ here is to further separate the stages of the electroweak phase transition, compared to that of the original two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM). The strength of the electroweak phase transition $(S)$ in the model under consideration is large enough for the first-order EWPT, specifically $1 < S < 2.8$. The ratio between the two vacuum expectation values (VEVs), $\tanβ= v_2/v_1$, is proven to have no effects on the strength of the phase transition. This ratio only affects the mass domain that causes the first-order phase transition. Furthermore, in this paper we will show clearly that when studying the EWPT in models of more than one scalar field that generates masses, one needs to analyze the problem of phase transition under multiple stages. In other words, the effect of the first stage of symmetry breaking to the second one, is to simplify by suggestion that vacuum expectation value of the Higgs boson responsible for the initial stage is proportional to that of the field for the next stage.

Baryogenesis and gravitational waves in the Zee-Babu Model

To explain the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Zee-Babu (ZB) model, the sphaleron process in the baryogenesis scenario is calculated. It always satisfies the de-coupling condition and the strength of phase transition ($S$) is always greater than $1$ in the presence of triggers other than that in the Standard Model, which are singly ($h^{\pm}$) and doubly ($k^{\pm\pm}$) charged scalar bosons. Sphaleron energies are in the range of 5-10 TeV, in calculation with bubble profiles containing free parameters and assuming nuclear bubbles of $h^{\pm}$ and $k^{\pm\pm}$ are very small. We tested the scaling law of sphaleron again with an average error of $10\%$. When the temperature is close to the critical one ($T_c$), the density of nuclear bubble is produced very large and decreases as the temperature decreases. The key parameter is $α$ which results in the gravitational wave density parameter ($Ωh^2$) in the range of $10^{-14}$ to $10^{-12}$ when $β/H^*=22.5$, this is not enough to detect gravitational waves from electroweak phase transition (EWPT) according to the present LISA data but may be detected in the future. As the larger strength of phase transition is, the more $α$ increases (this increase is almost linear with $S$), the larger the gravitational wave density parameter is. Also in the context of considering the generation of gravitational waves, in the ZB model we calculated $α\sim \text{a few} \times 10^{-2}\ll 1$, so rigorously conclude that the EWPT is not strong even though $S>1$. We also suggest that, for a model with a lot of extra scalar particles and particles which play a role in mass generation, the stronger the EWPT process and the larger $Ωh^2$ can be.

Constraint on the Higgs-Dilaton potential via Warm inflation in Two-Time Physics

Within the $SP(2,R)$ symmetry, the Two-time model (2T model) has six dimensions with two dimensions of time and the dilaton field that can be identified as inflaton in a warm inflation scenario with potential of the form $\simϕ^4$. From that consideration, we derive the range of parameters for the Higgs-Dilaton potential, the coupling constant between Higgs and Dialton ($α$) is larger than $0.0053$ and the mass of Dilaton is smaller than $10^{-7}$ GeV. Therefore, the 2T-model indirectly suggests that extra-dimension can also be a source of inflation.

Sphaleron in the first-order electroweak phase transition with the dimension-six Higgs operator

By adding the dimension-six operator for the Higgs potential (denoted $\mathcal{O}_6$) in Standard Model, we have a first-order electroweak phase transition (EWPT) whose strength is larger than unity. The cutoff parameter of the dimension-six Higgs operator ($Λ$) is found to be in the range 593-860 GeV with the Wilson parameter equals to unity; it is also shown that the greater the $Λ$, the lower the phase transition strength and the larger the Wilson parameter, the wider the domain of $Λ$. At zero temperature, the sphaleron energy is calculated with a smooth ansatz and an ansatz with scale-free parameters, thereby we find that smooth profiles are not more accurate than profiles with scale-free parameters. Then, using the one-loop effective Higgs potential with the inclusion of $\mathcal{O}_6$ instead of all possible dimension-six operators, we directly calculate the electroweak sphaleron energy at finite temperature with the scale-free parameters ansatz and show that the decoupling condition is satisfied during the phase transition. Moreover, we can reevaluate the upper bound of the cutoff scale inferred from the first-order phase transition. In addition, with the upper bound of the cutoff parameter (about 800-860 GeV), EWPT is a solution to the energy scale of the dimension-six operators. There is an extended conclusion that EWPT can only be solved at a large energy scale than that of SM.

Electro-weak Phase Transition With Three Phases in The $SU(2)_1 \otimes SU(2)_2 \otimes U(1)_Y$ Model

Our analysis shows that SM-like electroweak phase transition (EWPT) in the $SU(2)_1 \otimes SU(2)_2 \otimes U(1)_Y$ (2-2-1) model is a first-order phase transition at the $200$ GeV scale (the SM scale). Its strength ($S$) is about $1 - 2.7$ and the masses of new gauge bosons are larger than $1.7$ TeV when the second VEV is larger than $535$ GeV in a three-stage EWPT scenario and the coupling constant of $SU(2)_2$ group must be larger than 2. Therefore, this first order EWPT can be used to fix VEVs and the coupling constant of the gauge group in electro-weak models.

Multi-period structure of electro-weak phase transition in the 3-3-1-1 model

The electroweak phase transition (EWPT) is considered in the framework of 3-3-1-1 model for Dark Matter. The phase structure within three or two periods is approximated for the theory with many vacuum expectation values (VEVs) at TeV and Electroweak scales. In the mentioned model, there are two pictures. The first picture containing two periods of EWPT, has a transition $SU(3) \rightarrow SU(2)$ at 6 TeV scale and another is $SU(2) \rightarrow U(1)$ transition which is the like-standard model EWPT. The second picture is an EWPT structure containing three periods, in which two first periods are similar to those of the first picture and another one is the symmetry breaking process of $U(1)_N$ subgroup. Our study leads to the conclusion that EWPTs are the first order phase transitions when new bosons are triggers and their masses are within range of some TeVs. Especially, in two pictures, the maximum strength of the $SU(2) \rightarrow U(1)$ phase transition is equal to 2.12 so this EWPT is not strong. Moreover, neutral fermions, which are candidates for Dark Matter and obey the Fermi-Dirac distribution, can be a negative trigger for EWPT. However, they do not make lose the first-order EWPT at TeV scale. Furthermore, in order to be the strong first-order EWPT at TeV scale, the symmetry breaking processes must produce more bosons than fermions or the mass of bosons must be much larger than that of fermions.
