$X_{0,1}$(2900) and $(D^-K^+)$ invariant mass from QCD Laplace sum rules at NLO

Abstract

We revisit, improve and complete some recent estimates of the $0^{+}$ and $1^-$ open charm $(\bar c \bar d)(us)$ tetraquarks and the corresponding molecules masses and decay constants from QCD spectral sum rules (QSSR) by using QCD Laplace sum rule (LSR) within stability criteria where the factorised perturbative NLO corrections and the contributions of quark and gluon condensates up to dimension-6 in the OPE are included. We confront our results with the $D^-K^+$ invariant mass recently reported by LHCb from $B^+\to D^+(D^-K^+)$ decays. We expect that the bump near the $D^-K^+$ threshold can be originated from the $0^{++}(D^-K^+)$ molecule and/or $D^-K^+$ scattering. The prominent $X_{0}$(2900) scalar peak and the bump $X_J(3150)$ (if $J=0$) can emerge from a {\it minimal mixing model}, with a tiny mixing angle $θ_0\simeq (5.2\pm 1.9)^0$, between a scalar {\it Tetramole} (${\cal T_M}_0$) (superposition of nearly degenerated hypothetical molecules and compact tetraquarks states with the same quantum numbers) having a mass $M_{{\cal T_M}_0}$=2743(18) MeV and the first radial excitation of the $D^-K^+$ molecule with mass $M_{(DK)_1}=3678(310)$ MeV. In an analogous way, the $X_1$(2900) and the $X_J(3350)$ (if $J=1$) could be a mixture between the vector {\it Tetramole} $({\cal T_M}_1)$ with a mass $M_{{\cal T_M}_1}=2656(20)$ MeV and its first radial excitation having a mass $M_{({\cal T_M}_1)_1}=4592(141)$ MeV with an angle $θ_1\simeq (9.1\pm 0.6)^0$. A (non)-confirmation of the previous {\it minimal mixing models} requires an experimental identification of the quantum numbers of the bumps at 3150 and 3350 MeV.

Precision tests of third-generation four-quark operators: $gg \to h$ and $h \to γγ$

We compute the two-loop contributions to Higgs production via gluon-gluon fusion ($gg \to h$) and Higgs decay into two photons ($h \to γγ$), arising from third-generation four-quark operators in the Standard Model effective field theory (SMEFT). Our analysis is performed in the broken phase of the theory, retaining the full dependence on the Higgs and heavy-quark masses. This includes both finite matching corrections and logarithmic effects stemming from the renormalization group evolution within the SMEFT. As a byproduct, two-loop anomalous dimensions in the SMEFT are obtained. We also briefly discuss the phenomenological implications of our two-loop calculations.

Quantum Sensing Radiative Decays of Neutrinos and Dark Matter Particles

We explore a novel strategy for detecting the radiative decay of very weakly interacting particles by leveraging the extreme sensitivity of quantum devices, such as superconducting transmon qubits and trapped ion systems, to faint electromagnetic signals. By modeling the effective electric field induced by the decay photons, we evaluate the response of quantum sensors across two particle physics scenarios: the cosmic neutrino background and two-component dark matter. We assess the discovery potential of these devices and outline the parameter space accessible under current experimental capabilities. Our analysis demonstrates that quantum sensors can probe radiative decays of dark matter candidates using existing technology, while probing neutrino magnetic moments beyond current limits will require scalable quantum architectures with collective enhancement.

The $\sin(2ϕ)$ azimuthal asymmetry in exclusive $π^0$ production

The $\sin(2ϕ)$ azimuthal angular correlation between the transverse momenta of the scattered electron and the recoil proton in the $ep\to e^\prime p^\prime π^0$ process provides a probe for quark orbital angular momentum. We numerically calculate this asymmetry for the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) in the U.S. and China (EicC) kinematics using a light-front quark-scalar-diquark model, in which the light-front wave functions are derived from the soft-wall AdS/QCD framework. We also investigate the properties of the valence quark angular momentum expressed in terms of helicity-independent and helicity-dependent parton distributions. This study aims to establish theoretical constraints on the asymmetry sensitive to the quark orbital angular momentum prior to its first experimental measurement..
