Salam, Ludovic Scyboz, and Jesse Thaler Phys. Rev. D 108, 094010 (2023) – Published 6 November 2023 | A longstanding goal in collider analysis has been to assign flavor consistently to jets of final state particles which can then be associated with the initial partons coming from hard scattering processes. This paper presents "Interleaved Flavor Neutralization" to define jets with infrared- and collinear-safe (IRC safe) flavor and clustering properties similar to successful kinematic jet definitions. The authors carry out detailed checks to show the algorithm is IRC safe to at least sixth order in the strong coupling constant. | | | | | | Editors' Suggestion Ibrahim A.

Jackson Kimball Phys. Rev. D 108, 096026 (2023) – Published 27 November 2023 | This paper reports on the search for ultralight dark matter in the form of axions and dark photons using an innovative experimental design in which the earth serves as a transducer converting ultralight dark matter into a characteristic magnetic field signal. The magnetometers used to detect the expected magnetic field patterns are placed in areas in which magnetic noise sources, such as anthropogenic ones, are minimal. Although no conclusive detection is reported, limits are set for models in various parameter ranges and the prospects for refining the detection methodology are presented. | | | | | | Editors' Suggestion D. Basilico et al. (Borexino Collaboration) Phys. Rev. D 108, 102005 (2023) – Published 14 November 2023 | Although only one percent or so of the sun's luminosity comes from the Carbon-Nitrogen-Oxygen (CNO) reaction cycle, the Borexino Collaboration has managed to discriminate neutrinos arising from this process from the dominant pp cycle. In this new study, the collaboration uses a recently developed technique called the "correlated integrated directionality" (CID) method. This is an efficient way to separate solar neutrinos from background sources and further refine the detection of CNO cycle neutrinos through spectral analysis. | | | | | | Editors' Suggestion J. I. McDonald and S. J. Witte Phys. Rev. D 108, 103021 (2023) – Published 13 November 2023 | The authors present a "ray-tracing" framework to compute radio emission associated with axion-photon conversion in the vicinity of magnetars. They show that future radio telescopes should be able to explore QCD axion parameter space, independently from a magnetar's astrophysical model. | | | | | | Editors' Suggestion Tomasz Krajewski, Marek Lewicki, and Mateusz Zych Phys. Rev. D 108, 103523 (2023) – Published 17 November 2023 | The authors use numerical lattice simulations to study bubble nucleation in cosmological phase transitions. The terminal bubble velocity is an important parameter for the primordial gravitational wave spectrum as well as for electroweak (EW) baryogenesis. They are able to study an extreme parameter space that is the most promising for these phenomena. However, they find a hydrodynamical obstruction that creates a velocity gap that excludes the most promising models for EW baryogenesis, making it improbable to contribute to the solution of the baryon asymmetry problem. | | | | | | Editors' Suggestion Lara B. Anderson, Callum R. Brodie, and James Gray Phys. Rev. D 108, 106018 (2023) – Published 22 November 2023 | The authors study transitions of particular string compactifications (heterotic theories with N=1 supersymmetry in four dimensions) that change the topology and other nonpertubative properties of the internal manifold. This is part of trying to understand the string landscape, here the moduli space of heterotic compactifications, and string effective field theories. The authors provide geometric analyses, which are an important foundations for the physical understanding of these transitions. | | | | | | | |
