  Title The OBELIX chip for the Belle II VTX upgrade Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication Nuclear Instruments & Methods in Physics Research A Abbreviated Journal Nucl. Instrum. Methods Phys. Res. A  
  Volume 1067 Issue Pages 169659 - 3pp  
  Keywords Belle II; Belle II VTX; CMOS Pixel Sensor; Depleted Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor; DMAPS; Vertex detector; Particle tracking detectors; Radiation-hard detectors; OBELIX; Trigger  
  Abstract The OBELIX depleted monolithic active CMOS pixel sensor (DMAPS) is currently developed for the upgrade of the vertex detector of the Belle II experiment located at Tsukuba/Japan. The pixel matrix of OBELIX is inherited from the TJ-Monopix2 chip, but the periphery includes additional features to improve performance and allow the integration into a larger detector system. The new features include a trigger unit to process trigger signals, a precision timing module and a possibility to transmit low granularity hit information with low latency to contribute to the Belle II trigger. Additionally, low dropout voltage regulators and an ADC to monitor power consumption and substrate temperature is developed. This paper will focus on the trigger contribution capabilities of the OBELIX chip.

  Title Reducing the number of qubits in quantum simulations of one dimensional many-body Hamiltonians Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication New Journal of Physics Abbreviated Journal New J. Phys.  
  Volume 26 Issue 8 Pages 083023 - 17pp  
  Keywords Block Renormalization Group Method (BRGM); Ising Model; Quantum Simulation; NISQ Computers; Heisenberg Model  
  Abstract We investigate the Ising and Heisenberg models using the block renormalization group method (BRGM), focusing on its behavior across different system sizes. The BRGM reduces the number of spins by a factor of 1/2 (1/3) for the Ising (Heisenberg) model, effectively preserving essential physical features of the model while using only a fraction of the spins. Through a comparative analysis, we demonstrate that as the system size increases, there is an exponential convergence between results obtained from the original and renormalized Ising Hamiltonians, provided the coupling constants are redefined accordingly. Remarkably, for a spin chain with 24 spins, all physical features, including magnetization, correlation function, and entanglement entropy, exhibit an exact correspondence with the results from the original Hamiltonian. The study of the Heisenberg model also shows this tendency, although complete convergence may appear for a size much larger than 24 spins, and is therefore beyond our computational capabilities. The success of BRGM in accurately characterizing the Ising model, even with a relatively small number of spins, underscores its robustness and utility in studying complex physical systems, and facilitates its simulation on current NISQ computers, where the available number of qubits is largely constrained.

  Title Nonlinear Schwinger mechanism in QCD, and Fredholm alternatives theorem Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication European Physical Journal C Abbreviated Journal Eur. Phys. J. C  
  Volume 84 Issue 8 Pages 835 - 25pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract We present a novel implementation of the Schwinger mechanism in QCD, which fixes uniquely the scale of the effective gluon mass scale and streamlines considerably the procedure of multiplicative renormalization. The key advantage of this method stems from the nonlinear nature of the dynamical equation that generates massless poles in the longitudinal sector of the three-gluon vertex. An exceptional feature of this approach is an extensive cancellation involving the components of the integral expression that determines the gluon mass scale; it is triggered once the Schwinger-Dyson equation of the pole-free part of the three-gluon vertex has been appropriately exploited. It turns out that this cancellation is driven by the so-called Fredholm alternatives theorem, which operates among the set of integral equations describing this system. Quite remarkably, in the linearized approximation this theorem enforces the exact masslessness of the gluon. Instead, the nonlinearity induced by the full treatment of the relevant kernel evades this theorem, allowing for the emergence of a nonvanishing mass scale. The numerical results obtained from the resulting equations are compatible with the lattice findings, and may be further refined through the inclusion of the remaining fundamental vertices of the theory.

  Title Development of the fully Geant4 compatible package for the simulation of Dark Matter in fixed target experiments Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication Computer Physics Communications Abbreviated Journal Comput. Phys. Commun.  
  Volume 300 Issue Pages 109199 - 11pp  
  Keywords Simulation; DarkMatter; Geant4  
  Abstract The search for new comparably light (well below the electroweak scale) feebly interacting particles is an exciting possibility to explain some mysterious phenomena in physics, among them the origin of Dark Matter. The sensitivity study through detailed simulation of projected experiments is a key point in estimating their potential for discovery. Several years ago we created the DMG4 package for the simulation of DM (Dark Matter) particles in fixed target experiments. The natural approach is to integrate this simulation into the same program that performs the full simulation of particles in the experiment setup. The Geant4 toolkit framework was chosen as the most popular and versatile solution nowadays. The simulation of DM particles production by this package accommodates several possible scenarios, employing electron, muon or photon beams and involving various mediators, such as vector, axial vector, scalar, pseudoscalar, or spin 2 particles. The bremsstrahlung, annihilation or Primakoff processes can be simulated. The package DMG4 contains a subpackage DarkMatter with cross section methods weakly connected to Geant4. It can be used in different frameworks. In this paper, we present the latest developments of the package, such as extending the list of possible mediator particle types, refining formulas for the simulation and extending the mediator mass range. The user interface is also made more flexible and convenient. In this work, we also demonstrate the usage of the package, the improvements in the simulation accuracy and some cross check validations. Program summary Program title: DMG4 CPC Library link to program files: https://doi .org /10 .17632 /cmr4bcrj6j .1 Licensing provisions: GNU General Public License 3 Programming language: c++ Journal reference of previous version: Comput. Phys. Commun. 269 (2021) 108129 Does the new version supersede the previous version?: Yes Reasons for the new version: Numerous developments, addition of new features Summary of revisions: WW approximation cross sections for the muon beam are implemented and cross-checked, models with semivisible A ' (inelastic Dark Matter) and spin 2 mediators are added. The range of possible mediator masses is extended. Several important improvements for the annihilation processes are made, the number of possible annihilation processes is extended. User interface is improved. Several bugs are fixed. Nature of problem: For the simulation of Dark Matter production processes in fixed target experiments a code that can be easily integrated in programs for the full simulation of experimental setup is needed. Solution method: A fully Geant4 compatible DM simulation package DMG4 was presented in 2020. We present numerous further developments of this package.

  Title Study of the out-of-field dose from an accelerator-based neutron source for boron neutron capture therapy Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication Applied Radiation and Isotopes Abbreviated Journal Appl. Radiat. Isot.  
  Volume 212 Issue Pages 111458 - 6pp  
  Keywords BNCT; Neutrons; Out-of-field; Equivalent dose; Ambient dose  
  Abstract One important issue in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy is the delivered dose to the tissues outside the tumor. An international standard for light ion beam systems sets two recommended limits for out-of-field dose based on distance from the field edge: maximum absorbed dose from all radiation types shall not exceed 0.5 % of the maximum dose at distances 15 cm to 50 cm from the field edge. At distances > 50 cm from the field edge, the maximum absorbed dose shall not exceed 0.1 %. This paper is a continuation of our previous works focused on the design of an accelerator-based neutron source for BNCT. We already designed a novel Beam Shape Assembly which meets the IAEA criteria for BNCT treatments. Using this BSA, in the present work, we characterize by Monte Carlo simulations the dose outside the neutron field. The out-of-field dose has been assessed via estimates using the ambient and equivalent dose. Also the boron uptake in healthy tissues has been analyzed for the equivalent dose computation. It is concluded that our design for a future accelerator-based source for BNCT meets reasonably well the criteria defined from other forms of radiotherapy on both equivalent and effective dose outside the field.

  Title Neutrino masses from new seesaw models: low-scale variants and phenomenological implications Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication European Physical Journal C Abbreviated Journal Eur. Phys. J. C  
  Volume 84 Issue 8 Pages 803 - 19pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract With just the Standard Model Higgs doublet, there are only three types of seesaw models that generate light Majorana neutrino masses at tree level after electroweak spontaneous symmetry breaking. However, if there exist additional TeV scalars acquiring vacuum expectation values, coupled with heavier fermionic multiplets, several new seesaw models become possible. These new seesaws are the primary focus of this study and correspond to the tree-level ultraviolet completions of the effective operators studied in a companion publication. We are interested in the genuine cases, in which the standard seesaw contributions are absent. In addition to the tree-level generation of neutrino masses, we also consider the one-loop contributions. Furthermore, we construct low-energy versions that exhibit a very rich phenomenology. Specifically, we scrutinise the generation of dimension-6 operators and explore their implications, including non-unitarity of the leptonic mixing matrix, non-universal Z-boson interactions, and lepton flavor violation. Finally, we provide (Generalised) Scotogenic-like variants that incorporate viable dark matter candidates.

  Title Metrological detection of entanglement generated by non-Gaussian operations Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication New Journal of Physics Abbreviated Journal New J. Phys.  
  Volume 26 Issue 8 Pages 083012 - 20pp  
  Keywords entanglement; Fisher information; non-Gaussian; continuous variables; metrology; homodyne detection  
  Abstract Entanglement and non-Gaussianity are physical resources that are essential for a large number of quantum-optics protocols. Non-Gaussian entanglement is indispensable for quantum-computing advantage and outperforms its Gaussian counterparts in a number of quantum-information protocols. The characterization of non-Gaussian entanglement is a critical matter as it is in general highly demanding in terms of resources. We propose a simple protocol based on the Fisher information for witnessing entanglement in an important class of non-Gaussian entangled states: photon-subtracted states. We demonstrate that our protocol is relevant for the detection of non-Gaussian entanglement generated by multiple photon-subtraction and that it is experimentally feasible through homodyne detection.

  Title Production of hidden-heavy and double-heavy hadronic molecules at the Z factory of CEPC Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication Physical Review D Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. D  
  Volume 110 Issue 1 Pages 014031 - 15pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract With a clean environment and high collision energy, the Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) would be an excellent facility for heavy flavor physics. Using the Monte Carlo event generator P ythia , we simulate the production of the charmed (bottom) hadron pairs in the electron-positron collisions at the Z factory of CEPC, and the inclusive production rates for typical candidates of the hidden/double-charm and hidden/double-bottom S- wave hadronic molecules are estimated at an order-of-magnitude level with the final state interactions after the hadron pair production. The predicted cross sections for the hidden-charm meson-meson molecules X (3872) and Z(c) (3900) are at pb level, which are about two to three orders of magnitude larger than the production cross sections for the double-charm meson-meson molecules T-cc and T-cc*, as the double-charmed ones require the production of two pairs of c (c) over bar from the Z boson decay. The production cross sections for the hidden-charm pentaquark states P-c and P-cS as meson-baryon molecules are a few to tens of fb, which are about one magnitude larger than those of the possible hidden-charm baryon-antibaryon and double-charm meson-baryon molecules. In the bottom sector, the production cross sections for the Z b states as B-(*())(B) over bar* molecules are about tens to hundreds of fb, indicating 106-107 6 -10 7 events from a two-year operation of CEPC, and the expected events from the double-bottom molecules are about 2-5 orders of magnitude smaller than the Z b states. Our results shows great prospects of probing heavy exotic hadrons at CEPC.

  Title Dark matter signatures of black holes with Yukawa potential Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication Physics of the Dark Universe Abbreviated Journal Phys. Dark Universe  
  Volume 44 Issue Pages 101500 - 20pp  
  Keywords Quantum-corrected Yukawa-like gravitational potential; Dark matter; Quasinormal frequencies; Black Holes shadows  
  Abstract This study uses a nonsingular Yukawa-modified potential to obtain a static and spherically symmetric black hole solution with a cosmological constant. Such Yukawa-like corrections are encoded in two parameters, alpha and lambda, that modify Newton's law of gravity in large distances, and a deformation parameter l(0), which plays an essential role in short distances. The most significant effect is encoded in alpha, which modifies the total black hole mass with an extra mass proportional to alpha M, mimicking the dark matter effects at large distances from the black hole. On the other hand, the effect due to lambda is small for astrophysical values. We scrutinize the quasinormal frequencies and shadows associated with a spherically symmetric black hole and the thermodynamical behavior influenced by the Yukawa potential. In particular, the thermodynamics of this black hole displays a rich behavior, including possible phase transitions. We use the WKB method to probe the quasinormal modes of massless scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational field perturbations. In order to check the influence of the parameters on the shadow radius, we consider astrophysical data to determine their values, incorporating information on an optically thin radiating and infalling gas surrounding a black hole to model the black hole shadow image. In particular, we consider Sgr A* black hole as an example and we find that its shadow radius changes by order of 10(-9), meaning that the shadow radius of a black hole with Yukawa potential practically gives rise to the same result encountered in the Schwarzschild black hole. Also, in the eikonal regime, using astrophysical data for Yukawa parameters, we show that the value of the real part of the QNMs frequencies changes by 10(-18). Such Yukawa-like corrections are, therefore, difficult to measure by observations of gravitational waves using the current technology.

  Title Constraining the low-energy S =-2 meson-baryon interaction with two-particle correlations Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication Physical Review D Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. D  
  Volume 110 Issue 1 Pages L011505 - 8pp  
  Keywords  
  Abstract In this paper we present a novel method to extract information on hadron-hadron interactions using for the first time femtoscopic data to constrain the low-energy constants of a QCD effective Lagrangian. This method offers a new way to investigate the nonperturbative regime of QCD in sectors where scattering experiments are not feasible, such as the multistrange and charm ones. As an example of its application, we use the very precise K-Lambda correlation function data, recently measured in pp collisions at LHC, to constrain the strangeness S = -2 meson-baryon interaction. The model obtained delivers new insights on the molecular nature of the Xi(1620) and Xi(1690) states.
