Summary: We investigate the ground-state pseudoscalar glueball J(PC) = 0(-+) by calculating its two and three-body decays involving scalar, pseudoscalar, vector, and axial-vector quark-antiquark meson fields. We compute the branching ratios using a parameter-free calculation and assume a mass of 2.6 GeV for the pseudoscalar glueball based on lattice QCD simulations. We also calculate the branching ratios for a pseudoscalar glueball mass of 2.37 GeV, which matches the measured mass of the resonance X(2370) in the BESIII experiment. The results are important for ongoing and planned experiments such as BESIII, Belle-II, and PANDA.

Summary: We perform the first lattice study on the mixing of the isoscalar pseudoscalar meson eta and the pseudoscalar glueball Gin the Nf 1/4 2 QCD at the pion mass m pi approximate to 350 MeV. The eta mass is determined to be m eta 1/4 714o6 thorn o16 thorn MeV. Through the Witten-Veneziano relation, this value can be matched to a mass value of similar to 981 MeV for the SU(3) counterpart of eta. Based on a large gauge ensemble, the eta - G mixing energy and the mixing angle are determined to be jxj 1/4 107o15 thorn o2 thorn MeV and j theta j 1/4 3.46o46 thorn degrees from the eta - G correlators that are calculated using the distillation method. We conclude that the eta - G mixing is tiny and the topology induced interaction contributes most of eta mass owing to the QCD UAo1 thorn anomaly.

Summary: After the QCD phase transition, axions mix with neutral pions through their common coupling to the radiation bath via a Chern-Simons term. The nonequilibrium effective action, describing this mixing phenomenon, is obtained to second order in the coupling of neutral pions and axions to photons. A misaligned axion condensate is shown to induce a neutral pion condensate after the QCD phase transition. Even a very small axion-photon coupling is argued to seed the chiral phase transition. The dynamics of the pion condensate displays long and short timescales, with decay on the longer timescale resembling purification in a kaon beam. Additionally, the coupling to the common bath induces kinetic mixing. The populations of axions and pions exhibit thermalization with the bath, and the coupling to the bath induces long-lived coherence between axions and neutral pions independent of initial conditions. The framework of the effective action and many of the consequences are more broadly applicable to scalar or pseudoscalar particles mixing in a medium.

Summary: This study focuses on the mixing of glueball and meson mass eigenstates arising from DBI action as a finite N-f/N-c effect. By calculating the first-order corrections to the mass spectra of vector and scalar particles, it is shown that the term explicitly mixing vector and scalar states is the most significant correction to the masses of low-lying scalar mesons.

Summary: This paper extends the method for axial anomaly and derives the anomaly sum rule and transition form factors. The study shows that the non-Abelian axial anomaly plays a significant role in processes with one virtual photon, comparable to the electromagnetic anomaly. Additionally, it is observed that there is duality between the axial and vector channels.

Summary: In this study, we calculate the mass of the pseudo-scalar glueball at finite temperature using holographic QCD. The analysis shows that the mass decreases with increasing temperature and becomes zero at the confinement-deconfinement transition temperature, consistent with confinement and recent lattice results.

Summary: This work examines the interaction and conversion of photons with pseudoscalar particles in the presence of an external magnetic field and a pseudoscalar field. Exact solutions for the equations of motion are found, leading to precise expressions for transition efficiencies and the generation of longitudinal electric fields with potential implications for laboratory searches of pseudoscalar particles.

Summary: The generalized linear sigma model is applied to the pi eta channel to investigate the mixing among two-and four-quark components of scalar mesons. With model parameters fixed by low-energy experimental data, the properties of light and broad sigma and kappa mesons are extracted in agreement with previous estimates. The model successfully predicts the existence of an isovector scalar state below 1 GeV, supporting the plausible mixing patterns proposed for scalar mesons.

Summary: Motivated by the observation of the resonance X(2600) by BESIII Collaboration, this study examines the possibility of interpreting it as a trigluon glueball in the framework of QCD sum rules. The mass spectra of trigluon glueballs with quantum numbers 0-+ and 2-+ are evaluated, and the results indicate that the mass of the 2-+ trigluon glueball is consistent with the mass of X(2600), while the 0-+ mass is slightly lower. The potential decay channels of the 2-+ state are also analyzed, which are important for understanding the internal structure of X(2600).

Summary: A coupled-channel analysis of BESIII data on radiative J/psi decays into pi pi, K (K) over bar, eta eta and omega phi was performed to determine the ten isoscalar scalar mesons. The masses, widths, and decay modes of these mesons were determined and interpreted as mainly SU(3)-singlet and mainly octet states. Octet isoscalar scalar states were observed with significant yields only in the 1500-2100MeV mass region.

Summary: The new measurement of the W boson mass at Tevatron shows a significant deviation from the Standard Model and other precision measurements. This deviation is interpreted as an effect of new physics and is linked to anomalies such as the muon g-2. A model with two doublets and a light pseudoscalar Higgs field, along with a stable isosinglet fermion, can explain these anomalies and the weakly interacting massive particle responsible for dark matter.

Summary: In this study, the masses of pseudoscalar mesons were investigated using a non-perturbative mass formula. The mass of pseudoscalar meson (c (c) over bar) was found to be 7.6 GeV, which solves the problem of double cc production in e(+)e(-) annihilation at an energy of approximately 10.6 GeV. The mass of pseudoscalar meson (b (b) over bar) was also determined to be 28.4 GeV, which is consistent with the invariant mass of mu(+)mu(-) pairs produced in association with b jet at the LHC. Additionally, the formula was generalized to three flavors pseudoscalar mesons, and the mass of eta' meson was obtained, which is close to the experimental value.

Summary: The two-photon transition form factors of light pseudoscalar pi 0, eta and eta' mesons in a soft-wall holographic model of QCD with a solution of the U(1)A problem were computed. The results were compared with experimental data in different ranges of photon virtualities. The obtained transition form factors were used to determine the pi 0, eta, and eta' pole terms in the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon.

Summary: This paper addresses the coherent and incoherent photoproduction of pseudoscalar mesons on nuclei at high photon energies, particularly in the peripheral region with small momentum transfer. The reactions considered are important background for photoproduction in the electromagnetic field of a nucleus, and accurate cross section measurements are necessary for determining the radiative decay widths of neutral mesons. The study focuses on transitions to discrete bound levels and giant resonance states, with numerical results presented for photoproduction of II mesons on 12C.

Summary: The study suggests that a previously uncertain state observed a decade ago might actually be a recently reported vector rho(0)(1450) particle. By applying perturbative QCD methods, the researchers were able to predict the decay modes and branching ratios of B mesons. The results can be tested in ongoing experiments at LHCb and Belle-II.

Summary: Research on beyond-limit focusing in physics has significant academic importance, with the use of asymmetric boundary confinement in metallic subwavelength structures allowing control of focal point location and spot size. This can lead to focusing beyond the diffraction limit by inducing intense localized fields and tightly squeezing spatial distributions for wave sources and corresponding images.
