A 96 GeV Higgs boson in the N2HDM
We discuss a $$\sim 3\,\sigma $$ ∼3σ signal (local) in the light Higgs-boson search in the diphoton decay mode at $$\sim 96 \,\, \mathrm {GeV}$$ ∼96GeV as reported by CMS, together with a $$\sim 2\,\sigma $$ ∼2σ excess (local) in the $$b {{\bar{b}}}$$ bb¯

Holomorphic field theories and higher algebra
Abstract Aimed at complex geometers and representation theorists, this survey explores higher dimensional analogs of the rich interplay between Riemann surfaces, Virasoro and Kac‐Moody Lie algebras, and conformal blocks. We introduce a panoply of examples from physics — field theories that are holomorphic in nature, such as holomorphic Chern‐Simons ...

The sensitivity of the Higgs boson branching ratios to the W boson width
The Higgs boson branching ratio into vector bosons is sensitive to the decay widths of those vector bosons because they are produced with at least one boson significantly off-shell.

Abstract Short‐lived, unobservable, and not subject to the usual rules of conservation of energy and momentum, virtual particles—an integral part of the conceptual framework of quantum field theory (QFT)—exhibit a number of curious characteristics which, in recent decades, have in part fueled important discussions about their ontological status ...

After the discovery of the Higgs boson, the measurement of its properties are of particular importance. In this paper, measurement of the cross sections and couplings of the Higgs boson in bosonic decay channels with the ATLAS detector are presented ...

Two Micron‐Size Dark Dimensions
Abstract Two extra dimensions of micron scale might simultaneously address the gauge and cosmological hierarchy problems. In this paper various observational bounds in scenarios with one and two large extra dimensions are examined, to see if they are compatible with the micron scale.

The critical parameters and energies, at which the wave function of the Bose Einstein Condensate in a double well trap exhibit the symmetry breaking, are estimated. The phase space representation of the states is obtained trough the Wigner function and the trends of the negativities are analyzed.

The Higgs boson was predicted in 1964 by British physicist Peter Higgs. The Higgs is the key to explain the origin of the mass of other elementary particles of Nature. However, only with the coming into operation of the LHC, in 2008, there were technological conditions to search for the Higgs boson.

Signature of pseudo Nambu–Goldstone Higgs boson in its decay
If the Higgs boson is a pseudo Nambu–Goldstone boson (PNGB), the hZγ contact interaction induced by the O(p4) invariants of the non-linear sigma model is free from its nonlinearity effects.

Hunting for Paradoxes: A Research Strategy for Cognitive Science
Abstract How should we identify interesting topics in cognitive science? This paper suggests that one useful research strategy is to hunt for, and attempt to resolve, paradoxes: that is, apparent or real contradictions in our understanding of the mind and of thought.
