In the present paper we study some new classical Lorentz violating effects in planar electrodynamics due to the presence of stationary point-like field sources. Starting from the Carroll-Field-Jackiw model defined in (3+1) dimensions, which belongs to the electromagnetic CPT-odd sector of the Standard Model Extension (SME), we apply the dimensional reduction procedure obtaining a (2+1)-dimensional model that encompasses an electromagnetic sector composed of the Maxwell-Chern-Simons electrodynamics, a pure scalar sector described by a massless Klein-Gordon field, and a mixed sector where the background vector mediates contributions involving both the scalar and the gauge fields. For all the sectors of this planar theory, we explore some physical phenomena that arise from the interactions between external sources. Specifically, we obtain perturbative effects up to second order in the background vector related to the presence of both electric and scalar planar charges and Dirac points.

The production of a W boson in association with a single charm quark is studied using 140 fb− 1 of s= 13 TeV proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The charm quark is tagged by the presence of a charmed hadron reconstructed with a secondary-vertex fit. The W boson is reconstructed from the decay to either an electron or a muon and the missing transverse momentum present in the event. The charmed mesons reconstructed are D+→ K− π+ π+ and D*+→ D 0 π+→(K− π+) π+ and the charge conjugate decays in the fiducial regions where p T (e, μ)> 30 GeV,| η (e, μ)|< 2.5, p T (D (*))> 8 GeV, and| η (D (*))|< 2.2. The integrated and normalized differential cross sections as a function of the pseudorapidity of the lepton from the W boson decay, and of the transverse momentum of the charmed hadron, are extracted from the data using a profile likelihood fit. The measured total fiducial cross sections are σ fid OS–SS (W−+ D+)= 50.2±0.2 (stat)− 2.3+ 2.4 (syst) pb, σ fid OS–SS (W++ D−)= 48.5±0.2 (stat)− 2.2+ 2.3 (syst) pb, σ fid OS–SS (W−+ D*+)= 51.1±0.4 (stat)− 1.8+ 1.9 (syst) pb, and σ fid OS–SS (W++ D*−)= 50.0±0.4 (stat)− 1.8+ 1.9 (syst) pb. Results are compared with the predictions of next-to-leading-order quantum chromodynamics calculations performed using state-of-the-art parton distribution functions. Additionally, the ratio of charm to anticharm production cross sections is studied to probe the s− s quark asymmetry. The ratio is found to be R c±= 0.971±0.006 (stat)±0.011 (syst). The ratio and cross-section measurements are consistent with the predictions obtained with parton distribution …

A model-independent search for new physics leading to final states containing a Higgs boson, with a mass of 125.09 GeV, decaying to a pair of photons is performed with 139 fb− 1 of= 13 TeV pp collision data recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. This search examines 22 final states categorized by the objects that are produced in association with the Higgs boson. These objects include isolated electrons or muons, hadronically decaying τ-leptons, additional photons, missing transverse momentum, and hadronic jets, as well as jets that are tagged as containing a b-hadron. No significant excesses above Standard Model expectations are observed and limits on the production cross section at 95% confidence level are set. Detector efficiencies are reported for all 22 signal regions, which can be used to convert detector-level cross-section limits reported in this paper to particle-level …

A search for supersymmetry targeting the direct production of winos and higgsinos is conducted in final states with either two leptons (e or μ) with the same electric charge, or three leptons. The analysis uses 139 fb− 1 of pp collision data at= 13 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider. No significant excess over the Standard Model expectation is observed. Simplified and complete models with and without R-parity conservation are considered. In topologies with intermediate states including either Wh or WZ pairs, wino masses up to 525 GeV and 250 GeV are excluded, respectively, for a bino of vanishing mass. Higgsino masses smaller than 440 GeV are excluded in a natural R-parity-violating model with bilinear terms. Upper limits on the production cross section of generic events beyond the Standard Model as low as 40 ab are obtained in signal regions optimised for …

In this paper, we discuss various possible schemes for the perturbative generation of the axion-photon interaction term in different Lorentz-breaking extensions of QED, involving operators with mass dimensions up to five. We demonstrate explicitly that there are only a few schemes allowing one to generate a finite axion-photon interaction term from one-loop radiative corrections, and within all these schemes, the generated term turns out to be ambiguous. Also, through the current experimental limits on the axion-photon coupling, we extract some present constraints on the Lorentz violation parameters.

A search for flavor-changing neutral-current couplings between a top quark, an up or charm quark, and a Z boson is presented, using proton–proton collision data at s= 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The analyzed data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb− 1. The search targets both single-top-quark events produced as g q→ t Z (with q= u, c) and top-quark-pair events, with one top quark decaying through the t→ Z q channel. The analysis considers events with three leptons (electrons or muons), a b-tagged jet, possible additional jets, and missing transverse momentum. The data are found to be consistent with the background-only hypothesis and 95% confidence-level limits on the t→ Z q branching ratios, assuming only tensor operators of the Standard Model effective field theory framework contribute to the t Z q vertices. These are 6.2× 10− 5 (13× 10− 5) for t→ Z u (t→ Z c) for a left-handed t Z q coupling, and 6.6× 10− 5 (12× 10− 5) in the case of a right-handed coupling. These results are interpreted as 95% CL upper limits on the strength of the corresponding couplings, yielding limits for| C u W (13)*| and| C u B (13)*|(| C u W (31)| and| C u B (31)|) of 0.15 (0.16), and limits for| C u W (23)*| and| C u B (23)*|(| C u W (32)| and| C u B (32)|) of 0.22 (0.21), assuming a new-physics energy scale Λ NP of 1 TeV.

A combination of measurements of the inclusive top-quark pair production cross-section performed by ATLAS and CMS in proton–proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV at the LHC is presented. The cross-sections are obtained using top-quark pair decays with an opposite-charge electron–muon pair in the final state and with data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 5 fb− 1 at= 7 TeV and about 20 fb− 1 at= 8 TeV for each experiment. The combined cross-sections are determined to be 178. 5±4. 7 pb at= 7 TeV and pb at= 8 TeV with a correlation of 0.41, using a reference top-quark mass value of 172.5 GeV. The ratio of the combined cross-sections is determined to be R 8/7= 1. 363±0. 032. The combined measured cross-sections and their ratio agree well with theory calculations using several parton distribution function (PDF) sets. The values of the top-quark pole …

This paper presents a measurement of fiducial and differential cross-sections for production in proton–proton collisions at TeV with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb. Events with exactly one electron, one muon and no hadronic jets are studied. The fiducial region in which the measurements are performed is inspired by searches for the electroweak production of supersymmetric charginos decaying to two-lepton final states. The selected events have moderate values of missing transverse momentum and the ‘stransverse mass’ variable , which is widely used in searches for supersymmetry at the LHC. The ranges of these variables are chosen so that the acceptance is enhanced for direct production and suppressed for production via top quarks, which is treated as a background. The fiducial cross …

The observation of single top quark production in association with a Z boson and a quark (tZq) is reported. Events from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV containing three charged leptons (either electrons or muons) and at least two jets are analyzed. The data were collected with the CMS detector in 2016 and 2017 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 77.4fb(-1). The increased integrated luminosity, a multivariate lepton identification, and a redesigned analysis strategy improve significantly the sensitivity of the analysis compared to previous searches for tZq production. The tZq signal is observed with a significance well over 5 standard deviations. The measured tZq production cross section is sigma(pp -> tZq -> tl(+) l(-) q) = 111 +/- 13 (stat)(-9)(+11) (syst) fb, for dilepton invariant masses above 30 GeV, in agreement with the standard model expectation.
Lorentz-Violating Electrodynamics with Sources and Mirrors

We look for modifications that can be derived from the Maxwell sector of the SME for the interaction between electrical charges and the electromagnetic field. The kind of problem that we are looking into is the one that might be found in a standard textbook on electromagnetism: given a set of electrical charges, in the presence of some non-trivial boundary condition (such as a mirror), find the electromagnetic field and the interaction energy between those charges. To study such a kind of problem in the presence of LV coefficients, we calculate the modified propagator for the Maxwell field, and use it to calculate the energy of a system given by a semi-transparent mirror and a point-like charge. We show how new effects appear in this case, such as a spontaneous torque acting on the system.

These searches make use of proton–proton collision data with an integrated luminosity of, collected during 2015–2018 at a centre-of-mass energy TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Two searches target the pair production of charginos and neutralinos. One uses the recursive-jigsaw reconstruction technique to follow up on excesses observed in of data, and the other uses conventional event variables. The third search targets pair production of coloured supersymmetric particles (squarks or gluinos) decaying through the next-to-lightest neutralino via a slepton or Z boson into, resulting in a kinematic endpoint or peak in the dilepton invariant mass spectrum.

A search for the charged-lepton-flavor-violating process Z→ e μ is presented, using 139 fb− 1 of s= 13 TeV p p collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. An excess in the e μ invariant mass spectrum near the Z boson mass would be a striking signature of new physics. No excess is observed, and an upper limit B (Z→ e μ)< 2.62× 10− 7 is placed on the branching fraction at 95% confidence level, which is the most stringent limit to date.

A search for long-lived particles decaying into hadrons is presented. The analysis uses 139 fb− 1 of pp collision data collected at= 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the LHC using events that contain multiple energetic jets and a displaced vertex. The search employs dedicated reconstruction techniques that significantly increase the sensitivity to long-lived particles decaying in the ATLAS inner detector. Background estimates for Standard Model processes and instrumental effects are extracted from data. The observed event yields are compatible with those expected from background processes. The results are used to set limits at 95% confidence level on model-independent cross sections for processes beyond the Standard Model, and on scenarios with pair-production of supersymmetric particles with long-lived electroweakinos that decay via a small R-parity-violating coupling. The pair-production of electroweakinos …

A test of C P invariance in Higgs boson production via vector-boson fusion has been performed in the H→ γ γ channel using 139 fb− 1 of proton-proton collision data at s= 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The optimal observable method is used to probe the C P structure of interactions between the Higgs boson and electroweak gauge bosons, as described by an effective field theory. No sign of C P violation is observed in the data. Constraints are set on the parameters describing the strength of the C P-odd component in the coupling between the Higgs boson and the electroweak gauge bosons in two effective field theory bases: d in the HISZ basis and c H Win the Warsaw basis. The results presented are the most stringent constraints on C P violation in the coupling between Higgs and weak bosons. The 95% CL constraint on d is derived for the first time and the 95% CL constraint on c H Whas been improved by a factor of 5 compared to the previous measurement.

A search for nonresonant Higgs boson pair production in the b b b b final state is presented. The analysis uses 126 fb− 1 of p p collision data at s= 13 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider, and targets both the gluon-gluon fusion and vector-boson fusion production modes. No evidence of the signal is found and the observed (expected) upper limit on the cross section for nonresonant Higgs boson pair production is determined to be 5.4 (8.1) times the Standard Model predicted cross section at 95% confidence level. Constraints are placed on modifiers to the H H H and H H V V couplings. The observed (expected) 2 σ constraints on the H H H coupling modifier, κ λ, are determined to be [− 3.5, 11.3]([− 5.4, 11.4]), while the corresponding constraints for the H H V V coupling modifier, κ 2 V, are [− 0.0, 2.1]([− 0.1, 2.1]). In addition, constraints on relevant coefficients are derived in the context of the Standard Model effective field theory and Higgs effective field theory, and upper limits on the H H production cross section are placed in seven Higgs effective field theory benchmark scenarios.

This paper is devoted to the study of interactions between stationary electromagnetic sources for the minimal and nonminimal CPT-odd photon sector of the Standard Model Extension (SME), where we search mainly for physical phenomena not present in the Maxwell electrodynamics. First, we consider the minimal CPT-odd sector, where the Lorentz violation is caused by the Carroll–Field–Jackiw (CFJ) term, namely, , and we treat the Lorentz breaking parameter perturbatively up to second order. We consider effects due to the presence of point-like charges, Dirac strings and point-like dipoles. In special, we calculate the electromagnetic field produced outside the string and investigate the so-called Aharonov–Bohm bound states in Lorentz violation context. Afterwards, we consider a model where the Lorentz violation is generated by the higher-derivative version of the CFJ model, namely …

A influência da resistência do ar sobre um corpo deslocando-se sobre um cabo inclinado foi estudada por uma abordagem integrada englobando modelagem, solução analítica de equações diferenciais ordinárias, experimentação e estimativa de erros para os dados experimentais. O sistema utilizado permite realizar o experimento com três configurações diferentes para o corpo que se desloca, uma sem revestimento, com baixa área de seção transversal em relação à direção de deslocamento, e duas com revestimento, com elevada área de seção transversal, permitindo evidenciar experimentalmente não apenas a dependência da força resistiva com esta área, mas também com o formato do corpo. Como resultado dos procedimentos adotados, foi possível determinar propriedades como coeficiente de atrito, coeficiente de resistência do ar por unidade de massa e velocidade limite. O experimento proposto envolve materiais de baixo custo e pode servir, com as devidas adaptações, como uma atividade de ensino médio.

A search is performed for delayed and nonpointing photons originating from the displaced decay of a neutral long-lived particle (LLP). The analysis uses the full Run 2 data set of proton-proton collisions delivered by the LHC at a center-of-mass energy of TeV between 2015 and 2018 and recorded by the ATLAS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb. The capabilities of the ATLAS electromagnetic calorimeter are exploited to precisely measure the arrival times and trajectories of photons. The results are interpreted in a scenario where the LLPs are pair-produced in exotic decays of the 125 GeV Higgs boson, and each LLP subsequently decays into a photon and a particle that escapes direct detection, giving rise to missing transverse momentum. No significant excess is observed above the expectation due to Standard Model background processes. The results are used to set upper limits on the branching ratio of the exotic decay of the Higgs boson. A model-independent limit is also set on the production of photons with large values of displacement and time delay.

Several observables sensitive to the fragmentation of b quarks into b hadrons are measured using 36 fb− 1 of s= 13 TeV proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Jets containing b hadrons are obtained from a sample of dileptonic t t events, and the associated set of charged-particle tracks is separated into those from the primary p p interaction vertex and those from the displaced b-decay secondary vertex. This division is used to construct observables that characterize the longitudinal and transverse momentum distributions of the b hadron within the jet. The measurements have been corrected for detector effects and provide a test of heavy-quark-fragmentation modeling at the LHC in a system where the top-quark decay products are color connected to the proton beam remnants. The unfolded distributions are compared with the predictions of several modern Monte Carlo parton …

Some aspects of the nonbirefringent CPT-even gauge sector of the Standard Model Extension (SME), in the vicinity of a semi-transparent mirror, are investigated in this paper. We first consider a model where the Lorentz symmetry breaking is caused by a single background vector v μ, and we obtain perturbative results up to second order in v μ. Specifically, we compute the modified propagator for the gauge field due to the presence of the mirror and we analyze the corresponding interaction between the mirror and a stationary point-like charge. We show that when the charge is placed in the vicinity of the mirror, a spontaneous torque emerges, which is a new effect with no counterpart in Maxwell electrodynamics. We also compare these results with the corresponding ones obtained for the Lorentz violating scalar field theory. As expected, in the limiting case of perfect mirrors, we recover the interaction found via the …

We find that the model presents a metastable vacuum, which can be long-lived, where the particles become massive. The existence of attractive and repulsive interactions plays a crucial role in such phenomena.

The total cross section and differential cross sections for the production of B c±mesons, times their branching fraction to J/ψ π±, are measured relative to those for the production of B±mesons, times their branching fraction to J/ψ K±. The data used for this study correspond to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb− 1 of p p collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in 2012 at a center-of-mass energy of s= 8 TeV. The measurement is performed differentially in bins of transverse momentum p T for 13 GeV< p T (B c±)< 22 GeV and p T (B c±)> 22 GeV and in bins of rapidity y for| y|< 0.75 and 0.75<| y|< 2.3. The relative cross section times branching fraction for the full range p T> 13 GeV and| y|< 2.3 is (0.34±0.0 4 stat− 0.02+ 0.06 sys±0.0 1 lifetime)%. The differential measurements suggest that the production cross section of the B c±decreases faster with p T than the production cross section of the …

This paper presents a search for dark matter, , using events with a single top quark and an energetic boson. The analysis is based on proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS experiment at 13 TeV during LHC Run 2 (2015-2018), corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb. The search considers final states with zero or one charged lepton (electron or muon), at least one -jet and large missing transverse momentum. In addition, a result from a previous search considering two-charged-lepton final states is included in the interpretation of the results. The data are found to be in good agreement with the Standard Model predictions and the results are interpreted in terms of 95% confidence-level exclusion limits in the context of a class of dark matter models involving an extended two-Higgs-doublet sector together with a pseudoscalar mediator particle. The search is particularly sensitive to on-shell production of the charged Higgs boson state, , arising from the two-Higgs-doublet mixing, and its semi-invisible decays via the mediator particle, : . Signal models with masses up to 1.5 TeV and masses up to 350 GeV are excluded assuming a tan value of 1. For masses of of 150 (250) GeV, tan values up to 2 are excluded for masses between 200 (400) GeV and 1.5 TeV. Signals with tan values between 20 and 30 are excluded for masses between 500 and 800 GeV.

Measurements of the Standard Model Higgs boson decaying into a bb pair and produced in association with a W or Z boson decaying into leptons, using proton-proton collision data collected between 2015 and 2018 by the ATLAS detector, are presented. The measurements use collisions produced by the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass energy of s=13Te, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139fb-1. The production of a Higgs boson in association with a W or Z boson is established with observed (expected) significances of 4.0 (4.1) and 5.3 (5.1) standard deviations, respectively. Cross-sections of associated production of a Higgs boson decaying into bottom quark pairs with an electroweak gauge boson, W or Z, decaying into leptons are measured as a function of the gauge boson transverse momentum in kinematic fiducial volumes. The cross-section measurements are all consistent with the Standard Model expectations, and the total uncertainties vary from 30% in the high gauge boson transverse momentum regions to 85% in the low regions. Limits are subsequently set on the parameters of an effective Lagrangian sensitive to modifications of the WH and ZH processes as well as the Higgs boson decay into bb.

A search is presented for the production of the Standard Model Higgs boson in association with a high-energy photon. With a focus on the vector-boson fusion process and the dominant Higgs boson decay into b-quark pairs, the search benefits from a large reduction of multijet background compared to more inclusive searches. Results are reported from the analysis of 132 fb− 1 of pp collision data at= 13 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The measured Higgs boson signal yield in this final-state signature is 1. 3±1. 0 times the Standard Model prediction. The observed significance of the Higgs boson signal above the background is 1. 3 standard deviations, compared to an expected significance of 1. 0 standard deviations.

In this paper, we investigate the application of the Renormalization Group Equation (RGE) in the determination of the effective potential and the study of Dynamical Symmetry Breaking (DSB) in a massless Abelian Higgs (AH) model with an N-component complex scalar field in (3+1) dimensional spacetime. The classical Lagrangian of this model has scale invariance, which can be broken by radiative corrections to the effective potential. It is possible to calculate the effective potential using the RGE and the renormalization group functions that are obtained directly from loop calculations of the model and, using the leading logs approximation, information about higher loop orders can be included in the effective potential thus obtained. To show this, we use the renormalization group functions reported in the literature, obtained with a four loop calculation, and obtain a five loop approximation to the effective potential, in doing so, we have to properly take into account the fact that the model has multiple scales, and convert the functions that were originally calculated in the minimal subtraction (MS) renormalization scheme to another scheme which is adequate for the RGE method. This result is then used to study the DSB, and we present evidence for a rich structure of classical vacua, depending on the value of gauge coupling constant and number of scalar fields, which are considered as free parameters.

The results of a search for direct pair production of top squarks and for dark matter in events with two opposite-charge leptons (electrons or muons), jets and missing transverse momentum are reported, using 139 fb− 1 of integrated luminosity from proton-proton collisions at= 13 TeV, collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider during Run 2 (2015–2018). This search considers the pair production of top squarks and is sensitive across a wide range of mass differences between the top squark and the lightest neutralino. Additionally, spin-0 mediator dark-matter models are considered, in which the mediator is produced in association with a pair of top quarks. The mediator subsequently decays to a pair of dark-matter particles. No significant excess of events is observed above the Standard Model background, and limits are set at 95% confidence level. The results exclude top squark masses up to …

This Letter presents a search for the production of new heavy resonances decaying into a Higgs boson and a photon using proton-proton collision data at sqrt[s]=13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb^{-1}. The analysis is performed by reconstructing hadronically decaying Higgs boson (H→bb[over ¯]) candidates as single large-radius jets. A novel algorithm using information about the jet constituents in the center-of-mass frame of the jet is implemented to identify the two b quarks in the single jet. No significant excess of events is observed above the expected background. Upper limits are set on the production cross-section times branching fraction for narrow spin-1 resonances decaying into a Higgs boson and a photon in the resonance mass range from 0.7 to 4 TeV, cross-section times branching fractions are excluded between 11.6 fb and 0.11 fb at a 95% confidence level.

Radiative corrections in Lorentz violating (LV) models have already received a lot of attention in the literature in recent years, with many instances where a LV operator in one sector of the Standard Model Extension (SME) generates, via loop corrections, one of the LV coefficients in the photon sector, which is probably the most understood and well constrained part of the SME. In many of these works, however, the now standard notation of the SME is not used, which can obscure the comparison of different results, and their possible phenomenological relevance. In this work, we fill this gap, trying to build up a more general perspective on the topic, bringing many of the results to the SME conventional notation and commenting on their possible phenomenological relevance. We uncover one example where a result already presented in the literature can be used to place a stronger bound on the temporal component of the …

In this paper we consider classical effects in a model for a scalar field incorporating Lorentz symmetry breaking due to the presence of a single background vector v μ coupled to its derivative. We investigate of the interaction energy between stationary steady sources concentrated along parallel branes with an arbitrary number of dimensions, and derive from this study some physical consequences. For the case of the scalar dipole we show the emergence of a nontrivial torque, which is a distinctive sign of the Lorentz violation. We also investigate a similar model in the presence of a semi-transparent mirror. For a general relative orientation between the mirror and the v μ, we are able to perform calculations perturbatively in v μ up to second order, and we also present exact results specific cases. For all these configurations, the propagator for the scalar field and the interaction force between the mirror and a point-like …
Lorentz violation and radiative corrections in gauge theories

Published Date
2020
Various studies have already considered radiative corrections in Lorentz-violating models unveiling many instances where a minimal or nonminimal operator generates, via loop corrections, a contribution to the photon sector of the Standard-Model Extension. However, an important fraction of this literature does not follow the widely accepted conventions and notations of the Standard-Model Extension, and this obscures the comparison between different calculations as well as possible phenomenological consequences. After reviewing some of these works, we uncover one example where a well defined loop correction to the kF coefficient, already presented in the literature, allows us to improve the bounds on one specific coefficient of the fermion sector of the Lorentz-violating QED extension.
