Abelian instantons and monopole scattering by Csaba Csáki, Rotem Ovadia, Ofri Telem, John Terning, Shimon Yankielowicz

“…We show how to calculate the topological instanton number, demonstrate the existence of ’t Hooft zero modes localized around such instantons, and show how instantons in the path integral provide the underlying mechanism for the Callan-Rubakov process: monopole-catalyzed baryon decay with a cross section that saturates the unitarity bound. …”

Cluster production and the chemical freeze-out in expanding hot dense matter by D. Blaschke, S. Liebing, G. Röpke, B. Dönigus

“…In heavy-ion collisions at highest energies provided by the LHC, light cluster abundances should follow the statistical model because of low baryon densities. Chemical freeze-out in this domain is correlated with the QCD crossover transition. …”

Z′ Portal Dark Matter in the Minimal B-L Model by Satomi Okada

Polarization of thermal dilepton radiation by Florian Seck, Bengt Friman, Tetyana Galatyuk, Hendrik van Hees, Ralf Rapp, Enrico Speranza, Jochen Wambach

“…While the low- and high-mass regions exhibit the expected limits of transverse and unpolarized photons, respectively, baryon-driven medium effects in the ρ-meson mass region create a marked longitudinal polarization that transits into a largely unpolarized emission from the quark-gluon plasma, thus providing a sensitive test of microscopic emission processes in QCD matter. …”

A comparison of Bayesian and frequentist confidence intervals in the presence of a late Universe degeneracy by Eoin Ó. Colgáin, Saeed Pourojaghi, M. M. Sheikh-Jabbari, Darragh Sherwin

“…Finally, on the assumption that the Planck- $$\Lambda $$ Λ CDM cosmological model is correct, using profile likelihoods we confirm a $$>2 \sigma $$ > 2 σ discrepancy with Planck- $$\Lambda $$ Λ CDM in a combination of CC and baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) data beyond $$z \sim 1.5$$ z ∼ 1.5 . …”

Theoretical study of the open-flavored tetraquark $$T_{c\bar{s}}(2900)$$ T c s ¯ ( 2900 ) in the process $$\Lambda _b\rightarrow K^0D^0\Lambda $$ Λ b → K 0 D 0 Λ by Wen-Tao Lyu, Yun-He Lyu, Man-Yu Duan, Guan-Ying Wang, Dian-Yong Chen, En Wang

“…In this work, we have investigated the process $$\Lambda _b\rightarrow K^0D^0\Lambda $$ Λ b → K 0 D 0 Λ by taking into account the tetraquark state $$T_{c\bar{s}}(2900)^0$$ T c s ¯ ( 2900 ) 0 and the intermediate nucleon resonance $$N^*(1535)$$ N ∗ ( 1535 ) , which could be dynamically generated by the interactions of the $$D^*K^*/D^*_s\rho $$ D ∗ K ∗ / D s ∗ ρ and the pseudoscalar meson-octet baryon, respectively. Our results show that a clear peak of the open-flavored tetraquark $$T_{c\bar{s}}(2900)$$ T c s ¯ ( 2900 ) may appear in the $$K^0D^0$$ K 0 D 0 invariant mass distribution of the process $$\Lambda _b\rightarrow K^0D^0\Lambda $$ Λ b → K 0 D 0 Λ , which could be tested by future experiments.…”

Assessing the Dark Matter Content of Two Quasar Host Galaxies at z ∼ 6 through Gas Kinematics by Qinyue Fei, John D. Silverman, Seiji Fujimoto, Ran Wang, Luis C. Ho, Manuela Bischetti, Stefano Carniani, Michele Ginolfi, Gareth Jones, Roberto Maiolino, Wiphu Rujopakarn, N. M. Förster Schreiber, Juan M. Espejo Salcedo, L. L. Lee

“…We then determine the mass profiles of each component (stars, gas, dark matter) with priors on the baryon and dark matter properties. We find relatively large dark matter fractions within their effective radii ( f _DM ( R  <  R _e ) = ${0.61}_{-0.08}^{+0.08}$ and ${0.53}_{-0.23}^{+0.20}$ , respectively), which are significantly larger than those extrapolated from lower redshift studies and remain robust under different input parameters verified by Monte Carlo simulations. …”
