Hiding a Light Vector Boson from Terrestrial Experiments: A Chargephobic Dark Photon / Esseili, Haidar (Oregon U.) ; Kribs, Graham D. (Oregon U. ; CERN)
We calculate the terrestrial, astrophysical and cosmological constraints on a light vector boson that couples to an arbitrary combination of the electromagnetic and $B-L$ currents of the Standard Model. [...]

Conformal collider bootstrap in ${\mathcal N}=4$ SYM / Dempsey, Ross (MIT) ; Karlsson, Robin (Oxford U., Inst. Math.) ; Pufu, Silviu S. (Princeton U. (main)) ; Zahraee, Zahra (Perimeter Inst. Theor. Phys.) ; Zhiboedov, Alexander (CERN)
We use a combination of perturbation theory, holography, supersymmetric localization, integrability, and numerical conformal bootstrap methods to constrain the energy-energy correlator in $\text{SU}(N_c)$${\mathcal N}=4$ SYM at finite coupling. [...]

Nonlocal form factor of chromomagnetic penguin in $B\to K\ell^+\ell^-$ from QCD light-cone sum rules / Hurth, T. (U. Mainz, PRISMA) ; Khodjamirian, A. (Siegen U.) ; Mahmoudi, F. (IP2I, Lyon ; CERN ; IUF, Paris) ; Mishra, D. (IP2I, Lyon) ; Monceaux, Y. (IP2I, Lyon) ; Neshatpour, S. (IP2I, Lyon)
The branching fraction of the $B \to K\ell^+\ell^-$ decay has been measured recently by the LHC experiments, showing a deviation from theory predictions based on the Standard Model (SM). [...]

Neutrinos, B-L Symmetry and the Dark Dimension / Montero, Miguel (Madrid, IFT) ; Vafa, Cumrun (Harvard U., Phys. Dept.) ; Valenzuela, Irene (Madrid, IFT ; CERN)
We consider realizations of a gauged B-L symmetry in the context of the Dark Dimension scenario, where the SM lives on a codimension one brane in 5d spacetime. [...]

Two-loop renormalization of general bosonic effective field theories / Guedes, Guilherme (CERN) ; Roosmale Nepveu, Jasper (Taiwan, Natl. Taiwan U. ; Unlisted, TW)
The renormalization of higher-dimensional operators in quantum field theory is essential for phenomenological analyses in particle physics, and plays a significant role in the study of critical phenomena. [...]

Dynamical Love Numbers for Black Holes and Beyond from Shell Effective Field Theory / Kosmopoulos, Dimitrios (CERN) ; Perrone, Davide (U. Geneva (main)) ; Solon, Mikhail (UCLA)
We construct a novel effective field theory for a compact body coupled to gravity, whose key feature is that the dynamics of gravitational perturbations is explicitly determined by known solutions in black hole perturbation theory in four dimensions. [...]

Powerful Yukawas / Cohen, Timothy (CERN ; Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne ; Oregon U.) ; McCullough, Matthew (CERN) ; Weiner, Neal (CERN ; New York U. (main))
We introduce a class of models where the masses of the light Standard Model fermions are due to an Effective Field Theory operator that appears beyond dimension-4 in the power counting expansion, resulting in a `Powerful Yukawa'. [...]

How large can lepton mixing be? / de Blas, J. (Granada U.) ; Giuliano, C. (Granada U.) ; Guedes, G. (DESY ; CERN) ; López, R. Sánchez (Granada U.) ; Santiago, J. (Granada U.)
We show that, contrary to common expectations, the observed charged leptons can have a substantial mixing with new heavier fermions, at the level of 20$\%$ [...]
