We report the results of a search for a charged Higgs boson in the decays of top quarks produced in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. We use a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 193 pb-1 collected by the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab. No evidence for charged Higgs production is found, allowing 95% C.L. upper limits to be placed on BR(t-->H+b) for different charged Higgs decay scenarios. In addition, we present in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (mH+/-, tanbeta) plane the first exclusion regions with radiative and Yukawa coupling corrections.

I review possible signals at hadron colliders of bileptons, namely doubly charged vectors or scalars with lepton number L=±2, as predicted by a 331 model, based on a SU(3)c×SU(3)L×U(1)X symmetry. In particular, I account for a version of the 331 model wherein the embedding of the hypercharge is obtained with the addition of three exotic quarks and vector bileptons. Furthermore, a sextet of SU(3)L, necessary to provide masses to leptons, yields an extra scalar sector, including a doubly charged Higgs, i.

- Researchers used varied experimental searches with and without missing transverse momentum to analyze a Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM) augmented by a pseudo-scalar that mediates interactions between ordinary and dark matter.
- The analysis utilized data from proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider between 2015 and 2018, totaling up to 139 fb.
- Three key searches were statistically combined, focusing on large missing transverse momentum along with decaying Z bosons, Higgs bosons decaying to bottom quarks, and charged Higgs bosons interacting with top and bottom quarks, to derive constraints for various benchmark scenarios in the 2HDM+a

Tuning magnetic properties in layered van der Waals (vdW) materials has captured significant attention due to the efficient control of ground states by heterostructuring and external stimuli. Electron doping by electrostatic gating, interfacial charge transfer, and intercalation is particularly effective in manipulating the exchange and spin-orbit properties, resulting in a control of Curie temperature (T) and magnetic anisotropy. Here, an uncharted role of intercalation is discovered to generate magnetic frustration.

We consider a three-dimensional lattice Abelian Higgs gauge model for a charged N-component scalar field ϕ, which is invariant under SO(N) global transformations for generic values of the parameters. We focus on the strong-coupling regime, in which the kinetic Hamiltonian term for the gauge field is a small perturbation, which is irrelevant for the critical behavior. The Hamiltonian depends on a parameter v, which determines the global symmetry of the model and the symmetry of the low-temperature phases.

We compute the potential-photon contributions to the classical relativistic scattering angle of two charged nonspinning bodies in electrodynamics through fifth order in the coupling. We use the scattering amplitudes framework, effective field theory, and multiloop integration techniques based on integration by parts and differential equations. At fifth order, the result is expressed in terms of cyclotomic polylogarithms.
