We study the new $Z'$ boson as a portal for the production of Higgs bosons $h_0$ and $H_0$ predicted by the Bestest Little Higgs Model through Higgs-strahlung processes $\mu^+\mu^- \to (Z, Z') \to Zh_0, ZH_0$ . We focus on the resonant and nonresonant effects of the $Zh_0, ZH_0$ signals. In our analysis, we consider the center-of-mass energies of $\sqrt{s}=3, 4, 6, 10, 30$ TeV and integrated luminosities of ${\cal{L}}=2, 4, 6, 10, 30$ ${ {\rm{ab}}^{-1}}$ projected for a future muon collider. The possibility of performing precision measurements for Higgs bosons $h_0$ and $H_0$ is very promising for the future muon collider. Furthermore, our results may be useful to the High Energy Physics community. Complementarily, we generate and provide the Feynman rules necessary for studying processes $\mu^+\mu^- \to (Z, Z') \to Zh_0, ZH_0$ .

We revisit the calculation of the evolution equations for four unpolarized twist-3 transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions (PDFs) at <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mi mathvariant="script">O</mi><mo stretchy="false">(</mo><msub><mi>α</mi><mi>s</mi></msub><mo stretchy="false">)</mo></math>. Unlike the existing calculations in the literature, which are based on the background field method, we derive the evolution equations directly through diagram expansion. Additionally, instead of using the <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mi>δ</mi></math> regulator, we employ the exponential regulator to regularize the rapidity divergences. We find that the evolutions of the four twist-3 TMD PDFs are governed by eight homogeneous equations. Our evolution kernels agree with one set of results in the literature, but differ from another by a sign. Considering the advantages of the exponential regulator in high-order perturbative calculations, our results are crucial for computing the twist-3 TMD PDFs at <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mi mathvariant="script">O</mi><mo stretchy="false">(</mo><msubsup><mi>α</mi><mi>s</mi><mn>2</mn></msubsup><mo stretchy="false">)</mo></math>.

In this note, we derive and interpret hidden zeros of tree-level amplitudes of various theories, including Yang–Mills, non-linear sigma model, special Galileon, Dirac–Born–Infeld, and gravity, by utilizing universal expansions of tree-level amplitudes which expand amplitudes of different theories to those of bi-adjoint scalar theory. Hidden zeros of above amplitudes are attributed to zeros of bi-adjoint scalar amplitudes which can be easily proved. For unordered amplitudes such as gravitational ones, the kinematic condition for zeros causes potential divergences of propagators. We also show the detailed mechanism of eliminating such divergences.

We compute the branching fractions of vector quarkonia ( $$V_Q=J/\psi , \psi ', \Upsilon (nS)$$ ) decays into neutrino pairs, considering both Dirac and Majorana types, within the Standard Model (SM) and beyond. The vector nature of quarkonium states yields a decay width in the SM that depends upon the weak vector coupling of the heavy quark, offering the possibility to measure the weak mixing angle at the quarkonia mass scales. If neutrinos have non-standard neutral weak couplings, this could help to distinguish the nature of neutrinos in principle.

Parametric deviations of quasinormal modes (QNMs) is a common feature of beyond General Relativity (GR) theories. For theories with additional degrees of freedom, such as scalars and vectors, new family of modes might appear, usually called scalar-led and vector-led modes. Although a power series expansion in terms of the new parameters entering the potential is usually suitable to describe the frequency of the modes, the time-evolution of signals might present a richer structure, with different behavior in the tail, the presence of new modes (such as massive modes), or even instabilities. All these features are not explicitly exposed by a pure frequency domain analysis and might give hints of new physics. In this paper, we investigate the time evolution of signals considering potentials that slightly deviate from the ones coming from GR, looking into scalar, vector and metric perturbations. We focus on deviations that can be parametrized by a sum of $$\sim 1/r^j$$ terms in the effective potential, analyzing the effect of each term on the time domain profile

Time evolution of perturbations in quasi-Schwarzschild black holes

In this study, the methodology proposed by Goon and Penco for investigating the universality of thermodynamic relations with corrections in de Sitter black holes is extended. A universal thermodynamic extremality relation, considering the spacetime mass $\textit{M}$ with various state parameters, proposed by Goon and Penco is investigated in higher-dimensional spacetime. The established universal conclusions are not impacted by the convergence of energy from the coexistence region of two horizons to the point $\textit{N}$ or $\textit{C}$. Furthermore, by incorporating the shift of the angular momentum into our analysis, a more universal relation is derived, specifically applicable to rotating configurations. Notably, a novel conjecture is formulated that establishes a universal relationship framework connecting shifted thermodynamic quantities across arbitrary black hole backgrounds. These findings are expected to offer profound insights into the fundamental principles of quantum gravity.

On the basis of computer simulation, the ionization energy loss distributions (spectra) of high-energy positrons impinging on a silicon crystal at various angles $$\psi $$ with respect to the axis $$\langle 100\rangle $$ are considered. The method of simulation of high-energy particle ionization loss in oriented crystals is presented in detail. It is demonstrated that along with the probability of particle close collisions with atoms, the probability of distant collisions can be also sensitive to the particle position in the crystal lattice. Evolution of the ionization loss spectra with the change of crystal orientation relative to the incident particle momentum from the axial $$\langle 100\rangle $$ to the planar (100) and (110) with the increase of $$\psi $$ is investigated. It is shown that in the transition $$\langle 100\rangle \rightarrow (100)$$ the most probable energy loss $$E_\mathrm{{MP}}$$ experiences a sharp maximum and discontinuity, while in the transition $$\langle 100\rangle \rightarrow (110)$$ the amplitude of its variation is much smaller. Behavior of the average restricted energy loss $$E_\mathrm{{AV}}$$ in these transitions is investigated as well. Correlation of the dependences of $$E_\mathrm{{MP}}$$ and $$E_\mathrm{{AV}}$$ on $$\psi $$ with the change of the particle motion regime is discussed.

The goal of our work is to explore the topology classifications of black holes in Massive gravity. We use Duan's <italic>&#981;</italic>-mapping theory to study the topology classes. This tool helps us to compute the integer numbers to characterize the topological features of the black hole. Our analysis is carried out across two different thermodynamic ensembles. These statistical ensembles are the canonical ensemble and the mixed canonical ensemble. Every ensemble corresponds to a different thermodynamic condition, allowing us to investigate how the black holes respond to other physical conditions. Thus, employing these analytical techniques, it is expected that further insights into topological and thermodynamic aspects of black holes in these modified gravity frameworks can be explored. This work helps to shed light on black hole dependencies on gravitational theories and conditions in thermal processes and thus expands the knowledge, proposing a new essence of black holes.

Thermodynamic topology of black hole in Massive gravity with generalized Barrow modification of entropy

The real Higgs singlet extension of the Standard Model (SM) without $\textit{Z}$ symmetry, the RxSM, is the simplest extension of the SM that features a First Order Electroweak Phase Transition (FOEWPT) in the early universe. The FOEWPT is one of the requirements needed for electroweak baryogenesis to explain the baryon asymmetry of the universe (BAU). Thus, the RxSM is a perfect example to study features related to the FOEWPT at current and future collider experiments. The RxSM has two $$ \mathcal{CP} $$ -even Higgs bosons, $\textit{h}$ and $\textit{H}$, with masses $\textit{m}$ $\textit{< m}$ , where we assume that $\textit{h}$ corresponds to the Higgs boson discovered at the LHC. Our analysis is based on a benchmark plane that ensures the occurence of a strong FOEWPT, where $\textit{m}$ $\textit{>}$ 2$\textit{m}$ is found. In a first step we analyze the di-Higgs production at the (HL-)LHC, $\textit{gg → hh}$, with a focus on the impact of the trilinear Higgs couplings (THCs), $\textit{λ}$ and $\textit{λ}$ . The interferences of the resonant $\textit{H}$-exchange diagram involving $\textit{λ}$ and the non-resonant diagrams result in a characteristic peak-dip (or dip-peak) structure in the $\textit{m}$ distribution. We analyze how $\textit{λ}$ can be accessed, taking into account the experimental smearing and binning. We also demonstrate that the approximation used by ATLAS and CMS for the resonant di-Higgs searches may fail to capture the relevant effects and lead to erroneous results. In a second step we analyze the benchmark plane at a future high-energy $\textit{e}$ $\textit{e}$ collider with $$ \sqrt{s} $$ = 1000 GeV (ILC1000). We analyze the potential sensitivity to $\textit{λ}$ via an experimental determination at the ILC1000 and demonstrate that it is nearly independent of the heavy Higgs-boson mass, as long as it is kinematically accessible.
