Flavor Physics at CEPC: a General Perspective

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Xiaocong Ai, Wolfgang Altmannshofer, Peter Athron, Xiaozhi Bai, Lorenzo Calibbi | Summary: We discuss the landscape of flavor physics at the Circular Electron-Positron Collider (CEPC), based on the nominal luminosity outlined in its Technical Design Report. The CEPC is designed to operate in multiple modes to address […]

Measurement of the branching fraction, polarization, and time-dependent $CP$ asymmetry in $B^0 to ρ^+ρ^-$ decays and constraint on the CKM angle $φ_2$

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed, N. Akopov | Summary: We present a measurement of the branching fraction and fraction of longitudinal polarization of $B^0 to rho^+ rho^-$ decays, which have two $pi^0$’s in the final state. We also measure time-dependent $CP$ violation parameters […]

Comprehensive Bayesian Exploration of Froggatt-Nielsen Mechanism

Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Masahiro Ibe, Satoshi Shirai, Keiichi Watanabe, , | Summary: The Froggatt-Nielsen (FN) mechanism successfully explains the hierarchical structure of fermion Yukawa couplings by introducing a U(1) flavor symmetry with distinct charge assignments for different fermion generations. While some FN charge assignments have been proposed, their evaluation has […]

Impact of reionization history on constraining primordial gravitational waves in future all-sky cosmic microwave background experiments

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiya Namikawa | First 5 Authors: Hanchun Jiang, Toshiya Namikawa, , , | Summary: We explore the impact of the reionization history on examining the shape of the power spectrum of the primordial gravitational waves (PGWs) with the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization. The large-scale CMB generated from the reionization epoch is important […]

Detecting the Coupling of Axion Dark Matter to Neutron Spins at Spallation Sources via Rabi Oscillation

Kavli Affiliate: Yevgeny V. Stadnik | First 5 Authors: Peter Fierlinger, Jie Sheng, Yevgeny V. Stadnik, Chuan-Yang Xing, | Summary: We propose a novel detection method for axion dark matter using the Rabi oscillation of neutron spins in beam-based measurements. If axions couple to neutron spins, a background oscillating axion dark matter field would drive […]
