"Norton's Dome" is an example of a Newtonian system that violates the
Lipschitz condition at a single point, leading to non-unique solutions
(indeterminism). Here we reformulate this problem into a "weak" form (in the
sense of distributions...

NGC 4993 is the shell galaxy host of the GRB170817A short gamma-ray burst and
the GW170817 gravitational-wave event produced during a binary-neutron-star
coalescence. The galaxy shows signs, including the stellar shells, that it has
recentl...

We employ the maximum entropy method to extract the valence quark
distributions of the neutron at a low scale, Q02.
At this initial scale, the neutron is defined to contain only three valence
quarks, with no contributions from sea...
Higgs Decays to ZZ and Zγ in the SMEFT: an NLO analysis

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology
We calculate the complete one-loop electroweak corrections to the inclusive
H→ZZ and H→Zγ decays in the dimension-6
extension of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). The corrections

We consider the global evolution problem for Einstein's field equations in
the near-Minkowski regime and study the long-time dynamics of a massive scalar
field evolving under its own gravitational field. We establish the existence of
a glob...

We propose a framework based on the concept of the semigroup to understand
the fermion sign problem. By using properties of contraction semigroups, we
obtain sufficient conditions for quantum lattice fermion models to be
sign-problem-free. ...
Revisiting the charging-capacitor problem

Classical Physics
The charging capacitor is used as a standard paradigm for illustrating the
concept of the Maxwell "displacement current". A certain aspect of the problem,
however, is often overlooked. It concerns the conditions for satisfaction of
the Fara...

We estimate the chemical freeze-out of light nuclear clusters for NICA
energies of above 2 A GeV. On the one hand we use results from the low energy
domain of about 35 A MeV, where medium effects have been shown to be important
to explain e...
