Enhanced sensitivity to the $H \to Zγ\to \ell^+\ell^-γ$ decay at the LHC using machine learning and novel kinematic observables

At LHC energies, the Drell--Yan ($Z/γ^{*}$) processes have a substantially large cross section. Their di-lepton ($\ell^+\ell^-$) final state contributes significantly to many resonant signal regions, making them one of the dominant backgrounds in numerous physics analyses. The study focuses on improving the discrimination and...

Steady-State Exceptional Point Degeneracy and Sensitivity of Nonlinear Saturable Coupled Oscillators

A coupled oscillator system displays enhanced sensitivity of its saturated steady-state (SS) oscillation frequency to small parameter perturbations near an exceptional point degeneracy (EPD), a property that can be used to realize EPD-based sensors. Linear $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric systems, consisting of two coupled resonators, exhibit...

Squeezed-Light-Enhanced Multiparameter Quantum Estimation in Cavity Magnonics

Improving multiparameter quantum estimation in magnonic systems via quantum noise suppression is a well-established and critical research objective. In this work, we propose an experimentally realistic scheme to improve the precision of simultaneously estimating different parameters in a cavity-magnon system by utilizing a degenerate...

It's Not The Plane -- It's The Pilot: A Framework for Cognitive-Activated AI-Augmentation to Avoid the Boiling Frog Problem

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) systems can now reliably solve many standard tasks used in introductory physics courses, producing correct equations, graphs, and explanations. While this capability is often framed as an opportunity for efficiency or personalization, it also poses a subtle ethical and educational risk: students...

Quantum simulation of general spin-1/2 Hamiltonians with parity-violating fermionic Gaussian states

We introduce equations of motion for a parity-violating fermionic mean-field theory (PV-FMFT): a numerically efficient fermionic mean-field theory based on parity-violating fermionic Gaussian states (PV-FGS). This work provides explicit equations of motion for studying the real- and imaginary-time evolution of spin-1/2 Hamiltonians...

Composing $p$-adic qubits: from representations of SO(3)$_p$ to entanglement and universal quantum logic gates

In the context of $p$-adic quantum mechanics, we investigate composite systems of $p$-adic qubits and $p$-adically controlled quantum logic gates. We build on the notion of a single $p$-adic qubit as a two-dimensional irreducible representation of the compact $p$-adic special orthogonal group SO(3)$_p$. We show that the classification...

Influence of Ru content on electrocatalytic activity and defect formation of Au-Pd-Pt-Ru compositionally complex solid solution thin films

Compositionally complex solid solutions (CCSSs) consist of a randomly mixed single phase with the potential to enhance electrocatalytic activity through their polyelemental surface atom arrangements. However, microstructural complexity originating from multiple principal elements influences local structure, chemistry, and lattice...

Limits of multimode bunching for boson sampling validation: anomalous bunching induced by time delays

The multimode bunching probability is expected to provide a useful criterion for validating boson sampling experiments. Its applicability, however, is challenged by the existence of anomalous bunching, namely paradoxical situations in which partially distinguishable particles exhibit a higher bunching probability in two or more modes...

Advances in non-Hermitian dynamics of quadratic bosonic systems

Non-Hermitian physics has emerged as a rapidly advancing field of research, revealing a range of novel phenomena and potential applications. Traditional non-Hermitian Hamiltonians are typically simulated by constructing asymmetric couplings or by introducing dissipation and gain to realize non-Hermitian systems. The quadratic bosonic...

The dynamically generated $h_1$ state by the $K^*\bar{K}^*$ interaction and its $K_1(1270)\bar{K}$ and $b_1(1235)π$ decays

We investigate the dynamically generated $h_1$ state with spin-parity $J^P = 1^+$ and a mass around 1790~MeV, arising from the $K^* \bar{K}^*$ interaction within the chiral unitary approach. The partial decay widths into the $K_1(1270)\bar{K}$ and $b_1(1235)π$ channels are calculated via a triangular loop mechanism. In this mechanism,...

Nonperturbative Isentropic Processes in AdS Black Holes with Nonlinear Electrodynamics

We study the isentropic processes in a class of Anti de Sitter black holes coupled to non-linear electrodynamics. We demonstrate that such processes are classically forbidden but can proceed via quantum mechanical tunnelling. We compute the Euclidean action associated with the tunnelling process and analyze its dependence on the black...

Still Accelerating: Type Ia supernova cosmology is robust to host galaxy age evolution

Type Ia supernovae are a cornerstone of modern cosmology, providing first evidence for cosmic acceleration and new tests of dark energy. Son et al. 2025 (S25) claim a strong redshift evolution in standardized supernova luminosities driven by supernova progenitor age, with dramatic cosmological implications: rapidly evolving dark...

Soliton dynamics in the ABS nonlinear spinor model with external fields

We consider the novel nonlinear model in (1 + 1)-dimensions for Dirac spinors recently introduced by Alexeeva, Barashenkov, and Saxena [1] (ABS model), which admits an exact explicit solitary-wave (soliton for short) solution. The charge, the momentum, and the energy of this solution are conserved. We investigate the dynamics of the...

We investigate the deconfined quantum critical point (DQCP) candidate in the extended hard-core Bose-Hubbard model on the kagome lattice, employing quantum Monte Carlo simulations to study the entanglement entropy and the $U(1)$ disorder operator. In stark contrast to findings in $J$-$Q$ models and other candidates, the universal...

Evolution of Vortex Strings after a Thermal Quench in a Holographic Superfluid

The formation of topological defects during continuous phase transitions exhibits nonequilibrium universality. While the Kibble-Zurek mechanism (KZM) predicts universal scaling of point-like defect numbers under slow driving, the statistical properties of extended defects remain largely unexplored across both slow and fast protocols....

SIRIUS: Dark matter cusp evolution in dense dwarf galaxies

Dwarf galaxies have a wide variety of structures, such as dark matter (DM) distribution, stellar-to-halo mass ratio, and stellar density. Recent high-resolution simulations have shown a variety of stellar-to-halo mass ratios for dwarf galaxies with a DM halo mass of $\sim 10^9 M_{\odot}$ at $z=0$. In this study, we performed...

For quantum spin models defined on a two-dimensional lattice, we look for the best numbering of the lattice sites (a layout) that, at fixed bond dimension and other parameters of the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) algorithm, gives the lowest value of the variational energy, maximum entropy and truncation error.
