Recovering Readout-Limited Fisher Information in Superconducting-Qubit Magnetometry with Squeezed Microwaves

The performance of superconducting-qubit magnetometers depends not only on magnetic-field encoding during Ramsey interrogation, but also on how efficiently the encoded information is recovered during readout. Here we quantify how squeezed-microwave-assisted dispersive readout can recover magnetic-field information lost during qubit-state assignment. We develop an effective detected-mode framework linking projected quadrature noise, state-assignment error, and the classical Fisher information accessible from binary readout outcomes. A finite mismatch between the squeezed quadrature and the discrimination axis produces an optimal squeezing strength through the competition between squeezed and anti-squeezed fluctuations. For representative parameters, squeezed readout reduces the readout-limited magnetic-field sensitivity bound by $27.3\%$. This improvement arises from recovering information lost in the readout stage rather than from increasing the information encoded during Ramsey interrogation. These results may provide a practical route for mitigating measurement-stage information loss in superconducting quantum sensing.

Next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to pion (kaon)-induced exclusive Drell-Yan process

The high-energy pion and kaon beams proposed for future experiments at J-PARC offer a unique opportunity to investigate exclusive Drell-Yan processes induced by pions or kaons, which correspond to inverse deeply virtual meson production with $M=\pi,K$. To facilitate precise comparisons between theoretical predictions and forthcoming experimental data, we calculate the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD corrections to the processes $\pi^- p\to \gamma^*(\to l^+l^-) + n$ and $K^- p\to \gamma^*(\to l^+l^-) + \Lambda$. Our calculations are performed within the generalized parton distribution (GPD) factorization framework, accurate to leading twist in the generalized Bjorken limit ($Q^2\gg |t|,\,\Lambda_{\rm QCD}^2$). We find that the NNLO QCD corrections are substantial and positive; therefore, their inclusion is imperative for reliable theoretical predictions in confrontation with future experiments.

Inverse Density Problem for Linear Elasticity: Uniqueness from Local Measurements on a Partially Accessible Boundary

We consider the inverse boundary value problem in an elasticity system. It is proved that the density function $\rho$ and its derivatives at the boundary can be uniquely determined from the local Cauchy data. Furthermore, if the density function is analytic, we can uniquely determine the internal buried objects, as well as the unknown boundary and the boundary conditions imposed on it. Our methods mainly based on a precise characterization for the principal part of the difference between a special first-order singular solution and the fundamental solution in the $H^m$ norm, and the blow-up property for the boundary Sobolev norms of the volume potential corresponding to the fundamental solution.

Simultaneous Reconstruction of Multiple Unknowns in Stokes-Darcy System from Partial Boundary Data

This paper studies an inverse boundary value problem for a coupled Stokes-Darcy system modeling fluid-porous medium interaction, with an unknown solid object embedded in the free-flow region. We simultaneously recover the viscosity coefficient $\mu$, the interface $\Gamma$, and the internal object $D$ from localized boundary Cauchy data. A novel method based on the construction of an interior transmission problem is introduced, which can amplify the singularity of solutions. We establish a global uniqueness theorem, showing that all three unknowns are uniquely determined by the boundary measurements.

Next-to-next-to-leading-order QCD corrections to ${}^3S_1^{(8)}$ gluon fragmentation function for quarkonium

We present the first computation of the next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) QCD corrections to the ${}^3S_1^{(8)}$ gluon fragmentation function for quarkonium within the nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization framework, accurate to the lowest order in the velocity expansion. The calculation is performed with high numerical precision and encompasses both polarized and unpolarized cases. We find that the NNLO corrections are positive and substantial across most of the $z$ region. Furthermore, the logarithmic singularities near the endpoint $z\to 1$ are fully reconstructed, providing essential inputs for future threshold resummation beyond leading-logarithmic accuracy. Combined with threshold-resummed formulas in the large-$z$ region, our results yield phenomenologically viable inputs for the $^3S_1^{(8)}$ gluon fragmentation function. This enables a more reliable description of large-$p_T$ $J/\psi$ ($\psi'$) and $\chi_{cJ}$ production and polarization at hadron colliders, representing a crucial step toward a definitive test of the color-octet mechanism.

Institutional Trust and the Domestic AI Advantage: Evidence from DeepSeek and ChatGPT Users in China

Public trust in generative artificial intelligence exhibits increasingly divergent patterns across national contexts, yet prevailing research largely overlooks the macro-structural forces underlying this divergence. This study argues that trust in AI is not merely a technical response to performance but a product of institutional refraction. We propose an ``Institutional Prism'' framework to demonstrate how institutional trust shapes user trust in domestic (DeepSeek) and global (ChatGPT) large language models. Drawing on Cognitive-Affective Trust Theory, we distinguish between cognitive and affective dimensions of trust and analyze survey data from 405 Chinese users. The findings show that higher institutional trust is positively associated with stronger affective trust in domestic AI models and shifts cognitive evaluations in a more favorable direction. While under lower institutional trust, this domestic advantage weakens. These findings reveal that institutional trust has emerged as a core dimension of AI trust formation. By linking micro-level psychological judgments with macro-level governance, this research contributes a new perspective to human-machine communication.

Deeply virtual pion production through two-loop order

Deeply virtual meson production (DVMP) is among the most prominent channels to extract the nucleon's generalized parton distributions (GPDs) at $ep$ scattering facilities such as {\tt JLab} and the upcoming {\tt EIC/EicC} experiments, which plays a vital role in unravelling the three-dimensional internal structure of nucleon. In this work we calculate for the first time the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD radiative corrections to the DV$\pi$P processes $\gamma_L^* p\to \pi^+ n$ and $\gamma_L^* p\to \pi^0 p$ in the generalized Bjorken limit $Q^2\gg \vert t\vert, \Lambda_{\text{QCD}}^2$, accurate at the leading twist within collinear factorization framework. The impact of the two-loop QCD corrections appears to be positive and substantial, including which considerably improves the agreement between the perturbative QCD prediction and the available {\tt JLab} data. In addition to the differential longitudinal DV$\pi$P cross section, we also study the impact of the two-loop QCD corrections on the transverse single-spin asymmetries (TSSA) in some benchmark kinematics at {\tt JLab}, {\tt EIC} and {\tt EicC}.

Azimuthal asymmetry in $J/\psi+\gamma$ and $J/\psi+J/\psi$ production in ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions at LHC

Two-photon collision in ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions (UPCs) provides a unique and powerful platform for probing QCD with linearly polarized quasi-real photons. While photon polarization effects have been recognized in dilepton and even in light hadrons production, their consequences for heavy quarkonium production remain unexplored. In this work we investigate for the first time the $\gamma\gamma \to J/\psi+\gamma(J/\psi)$ channels in Pb-Pb UPCs at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), by integrating the non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization approach with the transverse-momentum-dependent (TMD) photon distributions. Based on the helicity amplitudes at lowest order in strong coupling and velocity expansion, we predict sizable $\cos(2\phi)$ and $\cos(4\phi)$ azimuthal asymmetries arising from the interference of linearly polarized photon states. These azimuthal-dependent observables, defined as the ratios of weighted to unweighted cross sections, are expected to be stable against including the higher-order radiative corrections and varying nonperturbative NRQCD matrix elements, thus offering a fresh test of quarkonium production mechanism and the photon TMD structure in the ultrarelativistic limit.

Recovering discontinuous viscosity coefficients for inverse Stokes problems by boundary measurements

In this paper, we investigate the inverse Stokes problem of determining a discontinuous viscosity coefficient $\mu$ in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. By analyzing the singularity of the Dirichlet Green's functions in $H^1$-norm and constructing a specifically coupled Stokes-Brinkman system in a localized domain, we prove a global uniqueness theorem that the viscosity coefficient $\mu$ can be uniquely determined from boundary measurements.

Mixed Electroweak-QCD Corrections to $H\to \gamma\gamma$

We present for the first time the complete three-loop mixed electroweak-QCD ($\mathcal{O}(\alpha\alpha_s)$) corrections for the decay channel $H \to \gamma\gamma$, by implementing three different on-shell $\alpha$ schemes in computing the electroweak correction. Our studies indicate that the $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s)$ correction amounts to approximately $1.7\%$ of the leading-order prediction for the diphoton width, while the $\mathcal{O}(\alpha)$ correction varies from $-4.8\%$ to $1.4\%$ depending on the specific $\alpha$ scheme. The three-loop mixed electroweak-QCD correction may reach $0.6\%$, $0.5\%$, and $0.2\%$ of the LO diphoton width in $\alpha(0)$, $\alpha(M_Z)$, and $G_\mu$ schemes, respectively, which is much more significant than the less-than-$0.1\%$ contribution from the three-loop QCD correction. It is also worth noting that the inclusion of the ${\cal O}(\alpha\alpha_s)$ correction significantly reduces the scheme dependence of the partial width from $0.6$ keV at leading order down to $0.03$ keV. The state-of-the-art Standard Model predictions are $\Gamma[H \to \gamma\gamma] = 9.389\div 9.420$ keV, providing a valuable theoretical benchmark for future Higgs factory collider program.

Optimized QCD two-loop correction to exclusive double $J/\psi$ production at B factories

We report the calculation of the process $e^+ e^- \to J/\psi J/\psi$ up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) at a center-of-mass (CM) energy of $\sqrt{s}=10.58$ GeV. We employ an improved NRQCD factorization approach, decomposing the amplitude into photon-fragmentation and non-fragmentation components. The fragmentation contribution is determined using the measured $J/\psi$ decay constant, while the interference and non-fragmentation parts are computed at NNLO in $\alpha_s$ and lowest order in velocity. In this optimized scheme, both ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ and ${\cal O}(\alpha^2_s)$ corrections in the interference part are positive and exhibit good convergence. The non-fragmentation part is numerically insignificant. Our results indicate that with the projected 50 ${\rm ab}^{-1}$ dataset at \texttt{Belle 2}, the prospects for observing exclusive double $J/\psi$ production are very promising.

Optimally Tensile Strained La3Ni2O7 Films as Candidate High-Temperature Superconductors on Designer Ba1-xSrxO (001) and SrO-SrTiO3 Substrates

Recent experiments have observed superconductivity up to 48 K in La3Ni2O7-derived films under compressive strain imposed by the SrLaAlO4 substrate, while such films on the SrTiO3 substrate with tensile strain have failed to reach the superconducting state. Here we propose to broadly expand the choices of materials platforms to achieve high-Tc superconducting La3Ni2O7 films by proposing designer substrates of Ba1-xSrxO (x = 0 - 1) that allow to continuously tune the strain in the films from being tensile to compressive. Our systematic study of the structural and electronic reconstructions of the strained La3Ni2O7 bilayer film leads to the central finding that at the optimal tensile strain of ~2% (x ~0.25), the spectral weight of the Ni dz2 orbital is peaked right at the Fermi level, and its hybridization with the Ni dx2-y2 orbital is substantially enhanced. Consequently, the expected Tc should be unprecedentedly high, at least substantially higher than those achieved in the compressive regime. Furthermore, our detailed thickness-dependent energetic analyses show that such films can be stably grown for thicknesses equal to or beyond the bilayer regime, and predict that the SrO-terminated SrTiO3 should also be able to stabilize the films with optimal tensile strain and higher Tc's.

Contrasting magnetic anisotropy in CrCl3 and CrBr3: A first-principles study

We present a first-principles study of the contrasting easy magnetization axes(EMAs) in the layered chromium trihalides CrCl3 and CrBr3, which exhibit in-plane and out-of-plane EMAs, respectively. Using density-functional theory calculations, we show that the EMA is determined by the interplay between spin-orbit coupling-induced magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy (SOC-MAE) and shape magnetic anisotropy energy(shape-MAE) arising from dipole-dipole interactions. While the Cr d orbitals contribute similarly to the SOC-MAE in both compounds, the key difference stems from the halogen p orbitals. In CrCl3, the localized Cl 3p orbitals favor spin-flip SOC interactions, particularly between the (px, py) and (py, pz) channels. These channels contribute with opposite signs-negative and positive, respectively-leading to partial cancellation and a small net SOC-MAE. As a result, the shape-MAE exceeds the SOC-MAE in magnitude, favoring an in-plane EMA. In contrast, CrBr3 features more delocalized Br 4p orbitals, enhanced p-d hybridization, and stronger SOC. This leads to stronger spin-conserving SOC interactions, with dominant contributions from both the (px, py) and (py, pz) channels. In this case, the positive contribution from the (px, py) channel outweighs the smaller negative contribution from the (py, pz) channel, resulting in a sizable net SOC-MAE. The SOC-MAE thus surpasses the shape-MAE and stabilizes an out-of-plane EMA. These findings demonstrate that the contrasting magnetic anisotropies in CrCl3 and CrBr3 originate from differences in the spatial distribution, SOC strength, and hybridization of the halogen p orbitals, highlighting the critical role of orbital anisotropy and spin selection rules in governing magnetic behavior in layered semiconductors.

Vector meson production associated with a lepton pair in $e^+$ $e^-$ annihilation

In this work, we investigate a novel production mechanism of vector mesons, exemplified by the production of a neutral vector meson associated with a lepton pair in $e^+e^-$ annihilation, i.e., $e^+e^-\to V l^+l^-$ ($V=J/\psi, \rho^0, \omega, \phi$, and $l=\mu, \tau$). These vector meson production channels can be precisely accounted within QED. The production rates of these processes are dominated by those diagrams where the vector meson is emitted from either the incident electron or positron, which exhibit a $\ln^2 m_l^2$ enhancement stemming from the triple collinear limit of leptons. Our numerical analysis indicates that the corresponding production rates are substantial enough to warrant the observation of these novel vector meson production channels at BESIII and Belle II experiments in near future.

Strange-antistrange and charm-anticharm asymmetries of pion in 't Hooft model

As a sequel of our preceding work [S. Hu et al., Phys. Rev. D 108 (2023) 9, 094040], we investigate the strange-antistrange and charm-anticharm asymmetries in the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of a light flavored meson, exemplified by the first excited pion in the 't Hooft model, {\it viz.}, QCD in two spacetime dimensions with infinite number of colors. Counted as an ${\cal O}(1/N_c)$ effect, the intrinsic strange content necessarily originates from the higher Fock component of the light flavored meson, which entails infinite towers of $K$ and $\overline{K}$ mesons. Numerical studies reveal that, with $m_u/m_d=1/2$, the $s$-$\bar{s}$ and $c$-$\bar{c}$ asymmetries of the first excited $\pi^-$ can reach per cents level. While the $s$-$\bar{s}$ asymmetry predicted from the meson cloud model (MCM) grossly align with the rigorous approach, there exists severe discrepancy between two approaches on the $c$-$\bar{c}$ asymmetry.

Absence of ferromagnetic instability and weak spin-orbit coupling effect in AV$_3$Sb$_5$ (A = Cs, Rb, and K)

A family of V-based kagome metals AV$_3$Sb$_5$ (A = Cs, Rb, K) presents an intriguing platform for exploring the interplay of time-reversal symmetry breaking, nontrivial topological bands, and electron correlations, resulting in a range of exotic quantum states, including the anomalous Hall effect, unconventional charge density waves, and superconductivity. These features prompt critical questions regarding the roles of magnetism and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in these systems. Our density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate a notable sensitivity of the magnetic properties to the choice of $k$-point mesh used in Brillouin zone integrations. Specifically, we find that using a dense $k$-point mesh yields a nonmagnetic pristine phase characterized by paramagnetic susceptibility, consistent with the recently observed Pauli paramagnetic behavior in single crystalline samples at high temperatures. In contrast, a coarser $k$-point mesh significantly increases the density of states at the Fermi level, inducing a ferromagnetic instability that satisfies the Stoner criterion. Moreover, our results show that the effect of SOC on both the geometric and electronic structures is minimal, with only a slight gap opening at the Dirac points, indicating a weak SOC influence in these materials. Importantly, our DFT band structure calculations closely align with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy data, reinforcing the notion of weak electron correlations in these kagome metals. This refined understanding challenges recent theoretical assertions that the interplay of magnetism, SOC, and electron correlations is essential for determining the nature of charge density waves in AV$_3$Sb$_5$.

A tale of Bethe logarithms: leptonic widths of $\chi_{cJ}$ and Lamb shift

The rare annihilation decays of $P$-wave spin-triplet quarkonia into lepton pair have to proceed via two-photon intermediate state, which are plagued with the infrared divergence symptom. We recognize that the physical root of the IR divergence and its remedy is the same as the Lamb shift in QED. In this work we provide a complete solution to this IR problem by including the effect of the higher Fock component of the $\chi_{cJ}$ state, {\it viz.}, the $c\bar{c}(^3S_1^{(1)})$ pair accompanied with a very long wavelength photon. Adding the contributions from the leading and next-to-leading order Fock components together, we arrive at the IR finite and factorization scale independent predictions for leptonic widths of $\chi_{cJ}(nP)$. The Bethe logarithms associated with these exclusive reactions are found to have rather different traits from those associated with Lamb shift. We present numerical predictions by employing several influential quark potential models. The predicted leptonic widths of $\chi_{cJ}(nP)$ are sizable and the observation prospect for $e^+e^-\to \chi_{cJ}(1P,2P)$ at BESIII looks bright. The future observation of $e^+e^-\to X(3872)$ will shed important light on the $c\bar{c}$ content of the $X(3872)$ meson.

Azimuthal modulation in light-by-light scattering from ultraperipheral collisions at LHC

Elastic light-by-light(LbL) scattering, one of the most fascinating processes in the Standard Model(SM), has recently been observed in the ultraperipheral collisions(UPCs) of relativistic heavy ions in the Atlas and CMS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider LHC. Recognizing that the incident quasi-real photons in LbL scattering are strongly linearly polarized, we re-investigate the LbL scattering in UPCs by incorporating the joint dependence of the impact parameter and transverse momenta of the incident photons. We show that the linear polarization of incident photons generates a sizable $\cos2\phi$-type azimuthal modulation, which awaits the test in future LHC and EIC experiments.
