Motivated by the recent lattice study by the FASTSUM collaboration [1],
thermal masses of the baryon parity-doublers are explored for
various pion masses [2]. A general trend of the octet and decuplet
parity-doublers is consistent to the results in [1], whereas their
hyperon masses are modified to a large extent for the physical pion mass.
We further investigate the fluctuations and...
This corresponds to one of the talks of the Speakers Bureau of LHCb, but I've been told that I should submit an abstract anyway.
The talks would sumarize the latest results and prospects of the LHCb experiment.
The scientific and personal biography of Lev Lipatov with brief description of some of his most important works is presented.
It is shown how to generalize semiclassical (high-energy) approximations
for linear eigenvalue problems to nonlinear eigenvalue problems.
We revisit the issue of the vacuum angle $\theta$ dependence in the weakly coupled (Higgsed) Yang-Mills theories. Anselm and Johansen noted that the vacuum angle $\theta_{\rm EW}$ associated with the electroweak SU(2) of the Standard Model is unobservable although all fermions get masses through Higgsing and there is no axion. We generalize this idea to a broad class of Higgsed Yang-Mills...
It is still an unsolved problem as to what are the microscopic degrees of
freedom that account for the entropy of large black holes. In previous
research which we quickly review, we proposed a general understanding of
the origin of the micro states of black holes in an Euclidean setting in
string theory based on the thermal scalar. Several recent lines of
research point to the importance of...
The weak bosons are composite particles. The scalar boson, observed
at the Large Hadron Collider, is not a Higgs boson, but a p-wave excitation of
the neutral weak boson. The mass spectrum of the excited bosons
and their decays into weak bosons and photons are discussed. We also
estimate the cross sections for the production of the new particles at
the CERN LHC.
Besides the excited weak...

In the last decades, advances in the level of precision in controlling atomic and optical systems opened up the low-energy precision frontier to fundamental physics tests. Exploitation of quantum entanglement in such systems to further improve the sensitivity of certain existing approaches is currently an active field of research. Drawing from the experiments in our lab, in this talk I will...
We study the structure and energy dependence of vorticity and hydrodynamic helicity fields in peripheral heavy ion collisions using the kinetic Quark-Gluon String and Parton-Hadron-String Dynamics models. We observe the formation of specific toroidal structures of vorticity field (vortex sheets). Their existence is mirrored in the polarization of hyperons of the percent order. Its rapid...
In this talk, I will first motivate theoretically some models entailing CPT Violation (CPTV), which might be responsible for the observed matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Cosmos, and may owe its origin to either Lorentz-violating background geometries in the early Universe, or to an ill-defined CPT generator in some quantum gravity models entailing decoherence of quantum matter. For the...
Standard quantum mechanics does not allow for systems existing in quantum superpositions of different times, since time is not an observable but a parameter. For the same reason the standard formalism does not allow for entanglement of states taken in different times. In this context I want to recall an atomic-interferometry experiment which is not widely known, but which may be regarded as...
A short review on the state-of-the-art of searches for magnetic monopoles is presented. Theoretical scenarios predicting them and the motivation behind postulating the existence of monopoles are briefly highlighted. Various techniques for direct and indirect searches of monopoles are reviewed, whereas emphasis is given on the results of the searches and the exclusion limits set in cosmic and...
Partially based on https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.03607, as well as some on-going theoretical and experimental collaborations addressing the foundations and applications of quantum entanglement.
