Non-factorisable electroweak virtual corrections to single-resonant processes / Ahmadova, Fazila ; Buonocore, Luca (CERN) ; Grazzini, Massimiliano ; Savoini, Chiara (Munich, Tech. U.)
We consider electroweak (EW) virtual corrections to $2\to 2$ fermion scattering processes mediated by a vector boson $V$ ($V=W^\pm,Z$) in the pole approximation. [...]

Heterotic String Theory Suggests a QCD Axion Near 0.5 neV / Benabou, Joshua N. (LBL, Berkeley ; UC, Berkeley) ; Dainelli, Giulio Alvise (LBL, Berkeley ; UC, Berkeley) ; Reig, Mario (CERN) ; Safdi, Benjamin R. (LBL, Berkeley ; UC, Berkeley)
We show that in heterotic string theory -- and dual corners of the landscape including Type I string theory -- the QCD axion mass is bounded from below by $m_a \gtrsim 0.5$ neV, a direct consequence of the model-independent axion whose decay constant is fixed by the grand unified theory (GUT) gauge coupling.

Are PTA measurements sensitive to gravitational wave non-Gaussianities? / Cecchini, Chiara (Trento U. ; TIFPA-INFN, Trento ; Madrid, Inst. Estructura Materia) ; El Gammal, Jonas (Insubria U., Como) ; Franciolini, Gabriele (Padua U. ; INFN, Padua) ; Pieroni, Mauro (Madrid, Inst. Estructura Materia)
Observing non-Gaussianity in the timing residuals of Pulsar Timing Arrays (PTAs) has recently attracted attention as a potential discriminator between astrophysical and cosmological origins of the observed Gravitational Wave (GW) signal. [...]

Studying the Infrared Behaviour of Improved Logarithmic Accuracy Parton Showers with Herwig / Holguin, Jack (Manchester U.) ; Plätzer, Simon (Graz U. ; Vienna U.) ; Seymour, Michael H. (Manchester U. ; CERN) ; Sule, Siddharth (Manchester U.)
We have implemented two recently proposed dipole shower algorithms that have next-to-leading-logarithmic accuracy at leading colour in the Herwig event generator. [...]

Chaos of Berry curvature for BPS microstates / Chen, Yiming (Stanford U.) ; Colin-Ellerin, Sean (UC, Berkeley ; CERN) ; Mamroud, Ohad (SISSA, Trieste ; INFN, Trieste) ; Papadodimas, Kyriakos (CERN)
We expect black hole microstates to differ in their chaotic properties from states associated with other geometries. [...]
