Peeking into the $θ$ vacuum

Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Ryuichiro Kitano, Ryutaro Matsudo, Norikazu Yamada, Masahito Yamazaki, | Summary: We propose a subvolume method to study the $theta$ dependence of the free energy density of the four-dimensional SU($N$) Yang-Mills theory on the lattice. As an attempt, the method is first applied to SU(2) Yang-Mills theory at […]

Leptophilic fermion WIMP ~ Role of future lepton colliders

Kavli Affiliate: Shigeki Matsumoto | First 5 Authors: Shun-ichi Horigome, Taisuke Katayose, Shigeki Matsumoto, Ipsita Saha, | Summary: The leptophilic weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) is realized in a minimal renormalizable model scenario where scalar mediators with lepton number establish the WIMP interaction with the standard model (SM) leptons. We perform a comprehensive analysis for […]

Imaging local discharge cascades for correlated electrons in WS2/WSe2 moiré superlattices

Kavli Affiliate: Michael F. Crommie | First 5 Authors: Hongyuan Li, Shaowei Li, Mit H. Naik, Jingxu Xie, Xinyu Li | Summary: Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) moir’e heterostructures provide an ideal platform to explore the extended Hubbard model1 where long-range Coulomb interactions play a critical role in determining strongly correlated electron states. This has led […]
