We investigate the general susceptibilities in the charm sector by using the van der Waals hadron resonance gas model (VDWHRG).We argue that the ideal hadron resonance gas, which assumes no interactions between hadrons, and the excluded volume hadron resonance gas, which includes only repulsive interactions, fail to explain the lattice quantum chromodynamics (lQCD) data at very high temperatures. In contrast, the VDWHRG model, incorporating both attractive and repulsive interactions, extends the degree of agreement with lQCD up to nearly 180 MeV. We estimate the partial pressure in the charm sector and study charm susceptibility ratios in a baryon-rich environment, which is tricky for lQCD due to the fermion sign problem. Our study further solidifies the notion that the hadrons should not be treated as noninteracting particles, especially when studying higher order fluctuations, but rather one should consider both attractive and repulsive interactions between the hadrons.

The Ricochet experiment aims to measure the coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering process from antineutrinos emitted by a research nuclear reactor operated by the Institut Laue-Langevin (Grenoble, France). This article presents a description of the Ricochet experimental installation and the detector performance achieved during its commissioning with a mini-CryoCube module consisting of three 42-g germanium cryogenic calorimeters. The baseline resolutions and background levels are reported both during reactor-on and reactor-off periods and as noise mitigation techniques were improved. A baseline resolution of 40 eV electron equivalent was achieved for the ionization channel after setup improvements, and the phonon channel resolutions ranged from 50 to 80 eV of total phonon energy. In the energy region from 2 to 7 keV, a nuclear recoil rate of <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mrow><mn>14</mn><mo stretchy="false">(</mo><mn>3</mn><mo stretchy="false">)</mo><mtext> </mtext><mtext> </mtext><mi>events</mi><mo>/</mo><mo stretchy="false">(</mo><mi>kg</mi><mtext> </mtext><mi>day</mi><mtext> </mtext><mtext> </mtext><mi>keV</mi><mo stretchy="false">)</mo></mrow></math> is measured during the reactor-off period selecting events in coincidence with muon veto signals. This rate is in agreement with the cosmogenic neutron rate calculated from GEANT4 simulations. After the rejection of events in coincidence with signals in the muon veto detectors, a combined 90% confidence level limit on the nuclear recoil background of <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mrow><mo form="prefix">&lt;</mo><mn>9</mn><mtext> </mtext><mtext> </mtext><mi>events</mi><mo>/</mo><mo stretchy="false">(</mo><mi>kg</mi><mtext> </mtext><mi>day</mi><mtext> </mtext><mi>keV</mi><mo stretchy="false">)</mo></mrow></math> is obtained in that energy region during the reactor-on period, which is compatible with our GEANT4 model calculation corresponding to a total rate of <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mrow><mn>5</mn><mtext> </mtext><mtext> </mtext><mi>events</mi><mo>/</mo><mo stretchy="false">(</mo><mi>kg</mi><mtext> </mtext><mi>day</mi><mtext> </mtext><mi>keV</mi><mo stretchy="false">)</mo></mrow></math>. The sensitivity of this analysis was however found to be limited by a surface event contamination which is currently being addressed by the Ricochet Collaboration with upgraded detectors.

Characterization of mini-CryoCube detectors from the RICOCHET experiment commissioning at the Institut Laue-Langevin

We formulate fermionic versions, for any number of spatial dimensions, of the van der Waals and Casimir-Polder interactions and study their properties. In both cases, the systems we introduce contain localized “atoms”: two-level systems, coupled to a vacuum Dirac field. This Dirac field plays here a role akin to the electromagnetic field in the van der Waals case. In this context, bag model conditions for the Dirac field serve as the analog of the “mirror” in the Casimir-Polder effect. We found that, in this case, the resulting interaction is repulsive.

This paper is designed for heavy pulsars coming from the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer. The research model is describe by Einstein field equations for anisotropic fluid configuration with spherical symmetry. As per present perceptiveness, modified non-linear Van der Waals equation of state is used to relate physical variables. The continuity of inner and outer matter is obtained by comparing inner spacetime to outer Schwarzschild metric. The physical viability of this model is evaluated and further it is compared with observational data of pulsars PSR J0348+0432, PSR J0740+6620 and PSR J0030+0451. The model fulfils all physical and mathematical characteristics of the dense structure studies. It offers the factual proofs carried by evolution of celestial configurations. The working model presented here is physically viable and shows stable behaviour.

Anisotropic model observing pulsars from Neutron Star Interior Composition with modified Van der Waals equation of state

Studying the thermodynamics of the systems produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions is crucial in understanding the QCD phase diagram. Recently, a new avenue has opened regarding the implications of large initial angular momentum and subsequent vorticity in the medium evolution in high-energy collisions. This adds a new type of chemical potential into the partonic and hadronic systems, called the rotational chemical potential. We study the thermodynamics of an interacting hadronic matter under rotation, formed in an ultra-relativistic collision. We introduce attractive and repulsive interactions through the van der Waals equation of state. Thermodynamic properties like the pressure (P), energy density ( $$\varepsilon $$ <math> <mi>ε</mi> </math> ), entropy density (s), trace anomaly ( $$(\varepsilon - 3P)/T^{4}$$ <math> <mrow> <mrow> <mo>(</mo> <mi>ε</mi> <mo>-</mo> <mn>3</mn> <mi>P</mi> <mo>)</mo> </mrow> <mo>/</mo> <msup> <mi>T</mi> <mn>4</mn> </msup> </mrow> </math> ), specific heat ( $$c_\textrm{v}$$ <math> <msub> <mi>c</mi> <mtext>v</mtext> </msub> </math> ) and squared speed of sound ( $$c_\textrm{s}^{2}$$ <math> <msubsup> <mi>c</mi> <mtext>s</mtext> <mn>2</mn> </msubsup> </math> ) are studied as functions of temperature (T) for zero and finite rotation chemical potential. The conserved charge fluctuations, which can be quantified by their respective susceptibilities, are also studied. The rotational (spin) density corresponding to the rotational chemical potential is explored. In addition, we explore the possible liquid–gas phase transition in the hadron gas with van der Waals interaction in the T – $$\omega $$ <math> <mi>ω</mi> </math> phase space.

Thermodynamics of a rotating hadron resonance gas with van der Waals interaction

Abstract In this work, we study the thermodynamic topology of a static, a charged static, and a charged rotating black hole in f(R) gravity. For charged static black holes, we work in two different ensembles: the fixed charge (q) ensemble and fixed potential (ϕ) ensemble. For charged rotating black holes, four different types of ensembles are considered: fixed (q, J), fixed (ϕ, J), fixed (q, Ω), and fixed (ϕ, Ω) ensemble, where J and Ω denote the angular momentum and the angular frequency, respectively. Using the generalized off-shell free energy method, where the black holes are treated as topological defects in their thermodynamic spaces, we investigate the local and global topologies of these black holes via the computation of winding numbers at these defects. For the static black hole we work in three models. We find that the topological charge for a static black hole is always −1 regardless of the values of the thermodynamic parameters and the choice of f(R) model. For a charged static black hole, in the fixed charge ensemble, the topological charge is found to be zero. Contrastingly, in the fixed ϕ ensemble, the topological charge is found to be −1. For charged static black holes, in both the ensembles, the topological charge is observed to be independent of the thermodynamic parameters. For charged rotating black holes, in the fixed (q, J) ensemble, the topological charge is found to be 1. In the fixed (ϕ, J) ensemble, we find the topological charge to be 1. In the case of the fixed (q, Ω) ensemble, the topological charge is 1 or 0 depending on the value of the scalar curvature (R). In the fixed (Ω, ϕ) ensemble, the topological charge is −1, 0, or 1 depending on the values of R, Ω, and ϕ. Therefore, we conclude that the thermodynamic topologies of the charged static black hole and charged rotating black hole are influenced by the choice of ensemble. In addition, the thermodynamic topology of the charged rotating black hole also depends on the thermodynamic parameters.

Luminosity is the key quantity characterizing the performance of charged particle colliders. Precise luminosity determination is an important task in collider physics. Part of this task is the proper calibration of detectors dedicated for luminosity measurements. The wide-used experimental method of calibration is the van-der-Meer scan, which is the beam separation scan performed at specifically optimized beam conditions. This work is devoted to modeling this scan with the q-Gaussian distribution of particles in colliding beams. Because of its properties, the q-Gaussian distribution is believed to describe the density closer to reality than regular Gaussian-based models. In this work, the q-Gaussian model is applied for van-der-Meer scan modeling, and the benefits of this model for luminosity calibration task are demonstrated.

We study the behavior of a hadronic matter in the presence of an external magnetic field within the van der Waals hadron resonance gas model, considering both attractive and repulsive interactions among the hadrons. Various thermodynamic quantities like pressure (<math><mi>P</mi></math>), energy density (<math><mi>ϵ</mi></math>), magnetization (<math><mi>M</mi></math>), entropy density (<math><mi>s</mi></math>), squared speed of sound (<math><msubsup><mi>c</mi><mi>s</mi><mn>2</mn></msubsup></math>), and specific-heat capacity at constant volume (<math><msub><mi>c</mi><mi>v</mi></msub></math>) are calculated as functions of temperature (<math><mi>T</mi></math>) and static finite magnetic field (<math><mi>e</mi><mi>B</mi></math>). We also consider the effect of baryochemical potential (<math><msub><mi>μ</mi><mi>B</mi></msub></math>) on the above-mentioned thermodynamic observables in the presence of a magnetic field. Further, we estimate the magnetic susceptibility (<math><msubsup><mi>χ</mi><mi>M</mi><mn>2</mn></msubsup></math>), relative permeability (<math><msub><mi>μ</mi><mi>r</mi></msub></math>), and electrical susceptibility (<math><msubsup><mi>χ</mi><mi>Q</mi><mn>2</mn></msubsup></math>) which can help us to understand the system better.

Effect of a magnetic field on the thermodynamic properties of a high-temperature hadron resonance gas with van der Waals interactions

The identification of jets originating from quarks and gluons, often referred to as quark/gluon tagging, plays an important role in various analyses performed at the Large Hadron Collider, as Standard Model measurements and searches for new particles decaying to quarks often rely on suppressing a large gluon-induced background. This paper describes the measurement of the efficiencies of quark/gluon taggers developed within the ATLAS Collaboration, using $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV proton–proton collision data with an integrated luminosity of 140 fb $^{-1}$ collected by the ATLAS experiment. Two taggers with high performances in rejecting jets from gluon over jets from quarks are studied: one tagger is based on requirements on the number of inner-detector tracks associated with the jet, and the other combines several jet substructure observables using a boosted decision tree. A method is established to determine the quark/gluon fraction in data, by using quark/gluon-enriched subsamples defined by the jet pseudorapidity. Differences in tagging efficiency between data and simulation are provided for jets with transverse momentum between 500 GeV and 2 TeV and for multiple tagger working points.
