Interaction Renormalization and Validity of Kinetic Equations for Turbulent States.
Phys Rev Lett
December 2024
Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot 7610001, Israel.
We consider turbulence of waves interacting weakly via four-wave scattering (sea waves, plasma waves, spin waves, etc.). In the first order in the interaction, a closed kinetic equation has stationary solutions describing turbulent cascades.

Article Synopsis
- Polarized semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (SIDIS) plays a crucial role in understanding the proton spin puzzle.
- The study presents comprehensive results for polarized SIDIS at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in quantum chromodynamics, covering all relevant interactions.
- A numerical analysis highlights the importance of NNLO corrections and demonstrates reduced scale dependence, particularly for the kinematics relevant to future electron-ion collider experiments.

It has long been established that axions could have been produced within the nascent proto-neutron star formed following the type II supernova SN1987A, escaped the star due to their weak interactions, and then converted to gamma rays in the Galactic magnetic fields; the nonobservation of a gamma-ray flash coincident with the neutrino burst leads to strong constraints on the axion-photon coupling for axion masses m_{a}≲10^{-10} eV. In this Letter, we use SN1987A to constrain higher mass axions, all the way to m_{a}∼10^{-3} eV, by accounting for axion production from the Primakoff process, nucleon bremsstrahlung, and pion conversion along with axion-photon conversion on the still-intact magnetic fields of the progenitor star. Moreover, we show that gamma-ray observations of the next Galactic supernova, leveraging the magnetic fields of the progenitor star, could detect quantum chromodynamics axions for masses above roughly 50 μeV, depending on the supernova.

Unlabelled: Matching conditions are universal ingredients that describe how fragmentation functions change when heavy-flavour thresholds are crossed during the factorisation scale evolution. They are the last missing piece for a consistent description of observables with identified final-state hadrons at next-to-next-to leading order accuracy in quantum chromodynamics. We present an analytical form of the matching condition for light-flavour to hadron fragmentation function at next-to-next-to leading order.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFThe first search for soft unclustered energy patterns (SUEPs) is performed using an integrated luminosity of 138 fb^{-1} of proton-proton collision data at sqrt[s]=13 TeV, collected in 2016-2018 by the CMS detector at the LHC. Such SUEPs are predicted by hidden valley models with a new, confining force with a large 't Hooft coupling. In events with boosted topologies, selected by high-threshold hadronic triggers, the multiplicity and sphericity of clustered tracks are used to reject the background from standard model quantum chromodynamics.
