Advances in High Energy Physics

The finding article presents Bianchi type- universe in the presence of bulk viscous and DE fluid nature of a cosmological model. The solutions of field equations were obtained by assuming hybrid expansion law. The physical significance of the obtained findings illustrates the dominance of bulk viscosity in early and dominance of dark energy fluid emergences in late. This leads to indicate the presence of bulk viscosity nature more effective in early time rather than late times, and also, it shows the dominance of dark energy in late times which grants the current observational result of the universe. Certain physical and geometrical properties of the model are also discussed.

Highly energetic proton/electron beam fixed-target experiments extend an opportunity to probe the sub-GeV dark matter and associated interactions. In this work, we have explored the sensitivity of DUNE (Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment) for sub-GeV leptophobic dark matter, i.e., this dark matter barely couples with the leptons. Baryon number gauge theory can predict the existence of leptophobic cold dark matter particle candidates. In our work, the dark matter candidate is considered to be scalar whose mass is defined by the symmetry breaking of new baryonic gauge group . In this scenario, a light scalar dark matter couples with the standard model candidates via vector boson mediator which belongs to the baryonic gauge group . This leptophobic dark matter dominantly couples to the quarks. Under this scenario, new parameter space for is explored by DUNE for leptophobic dark matter candidates. This new parameter space allowed to get a lower value than the present exiting constraint value of , i.e., .

In several extensions of the Standard Model of Particle Physics (SMPP), the neutrinos acquire electromagnetic properties such as the electric millicharge. Theoretical and experimental bounds have been reported in the literature for this parameter. In this work, we first carried out a statistical analysis by using data from reactor neutrino experiments, which include elastic neutrino-electron scattering (ENES) processes, in order to obtain both individual and combined limits on the neutrino electric millicharge (NEM). Then, we performed a similar calculation to show an estimate of the sensitivity of future experiments of reactor neutrinos to the NEM, by involving coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENNS). In the first case, the constraints achieved from the combination of several experiments are (90% C.L.), and in the second scenario, we obtained the bounds (90% C.L.). As we will show here, these combined analyses of different experimental data can lead to stronger constraints than those based on individual analysis, where CENNS interactions would stand out as an important alternative to improve the current limits on NEM.

Phenomenological potentials describe the quarkonium systems like where they give a good accuracy for the mass spectra. In the present work, we extend one of our previous works in the central case by adding spin-dependent terms to allow for relativistic corrections. By using such terms, we get better accuracy than previous theoretical calculations. In the present work, the mass spectra of the bound states of heavy quarks , and 𝐵𝑐 mesons are studied within the framework of the nonrelativistic Schrödinger equation. First, we solve Schrödinger’s equation by Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method. The energy eigenvalues are presented using our new potential. The results obtained are in good agreement with the experimental data and are better than the previous theoretical estimates.

In this paper, we present a type D, nonvanishing cosmological constant, vacuum solution of Einstein’s field equations, extension of an axially symmetric, asymptotically flat vacuum metric with a curvature singularity. The space-time admits closed time-like curves (CTCs) that appear after a certain instant of time from an initial space-like hypersurface, indicating it represents a time-machine space-time. We wish to discuss the physical properties and show that this solution can be interpreted as gravitational waves of Coulomb-type propagate on anti-de Sitter space backgrounds. Our treatment focuses on the analysis of the equation of geodesic deviations.

We describe the transverse momentum spectra or transverse mass spectra of , , , and produced in central gold-gold (Au-Au), central lead-lead (Pb-Pb), and inelastic proton-proton (pp) collisions at different collision energies range from the AGS to LHC by using a two-component (in most cases) Erlang distribution in the framework of multisource thermal model. The fitting results are consistent with the experimental data, and the final-state yield ratios of negative to positive particles are obtained based on the normalization constants from the above describing the transverse momentum (or mass) spectra. The energy-dependent chemical potentials of light hadrons (, , and ) and quarks (, , and ) in central Au-Au, central Pb-Pb, and inelastic (pp) collisions are then extracted from the modified yield ratios in which the contributions of strong decay from high-mass resonance and weak decay from heavy flavor hadrons are removed. The study shows that most types of energy-dependent chemical potentials decrease with increase of collision energy over a range from the AGS to LHC. The curves of all types of energy-dependent chemical potentials, obtained from the fits of yield ratios vs. energy, have the maximum at about 3.510 GeV, which possibly is the critical energy of phase transition from a liquid-like hadron state to a gas-like quark state in the collision system. At the top RHIC and LHC, all types of chemical potentials become small and tend to zero at very high energy, which confirms that the high energy collision system possibly changes completely from the liquid-like hadron-dominant state to the gas-like quark-dominant state and the partonic interactions possibly play a dominant role at the LHC.
