Affine $mathcal{W}$-algebras and Miura maps from 3d $mathcal N=4$ non-Abelian quiver gauge theories

Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Ioana Coman, Myungbo Shim, Masahito Yamazaki, Yehao Zhou, | Summary: We study Vertex Operator Algebras (VOAs) obtained from the H-twist of 3d $mathcal{N}=4$ linear quiver gauge theories. We find that H-twisted VOAs can be regarded as the ”chiralization” of the extended Higgs branch: many of the ingredients […]

Anti-reflection coating with mullite and Duroid for large-diameter cryogenic sapphire and alumina optics

Kavli Affiliate: Tomotake Matsumura | First 5 Authors: Kana Sakaguri, Masaya Hasegawa, Yuki Sakurai, Junna Sugiyama, Nicole Farias | Summary: We developed a broadband two-layer anti-reflection (AR) coating for use on a sapphire half-wave plate (HWP) and an alumina infrared (IR) filter for the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarimetry. Measuring the faint CMB B-mode signals […]

Spectrum Degeneracies from Quantum Evanescence

Kavli Affiliate: Tom Melia | First 5 Authors: Weiguang Cao, Xiaochuan Lu, Tom Melia, , | Summary: We identify degeneracies in the energy spectra of quantum theories that occur at integer values of the continuous parameter $N$ of an analytically continued global $O(N)$ symmetry. The degeneracies are enforced by the requirement that evanescent states fall […]

Constraints on the spectrum of field theories with non-integer $O(N)$ symmetry from quantum evanescence

Kavli Affiliate: Tom Melia | First 5 Authors: Weiguang Cao, Xiaochuan Lu, Tom Melia, , | Summary: We identify constraints in the energy spectra of quantum theories that have a global $O(N)$ symmetry, where $N$ is treated as a continuous parameter. We point out that a class of evanescent states fall out of the spectrum […]

Precise Estimate of Charged Higgsino/Wino Decay Rate

Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Masahiro Ibe, Yuhei Nakayama, Satoshi Shirai, , | Summary: Higgsinos and Winos in the supersymmetric Standard Model are prime candidates for dark matter due to their weakly interacting nature. The mass differences between their charged components (charginos) and neutral components (neutralinos) become degenerate when other superparticles are […]
