(Quadratically) Refined Discrete Anomaly Cancellation / Dierigl, Markus (CERN) ; Tartaglia, Michelangelo (CSIC, Madrid)
In this work we study the cancellation of non-perturbative anomalies of gravitational theories with gauge group $\mathbb{Z}_k$ in six dimensions. These subtle anomalies require a classification of deformation classes of manifolds with discrete gauge bundles known as bordism groups. [...]

Superadditivity at Large Charge / Cohen, Timothy (CERN ; EPFL, Lausanne, LPTP ; Oregon U.) ; Fadakar, Ipak (EPFL, Lausanne, LPTP ; Pisa, Scuola Normale Superiore) ; Gomes, Andrew (EPFL, Lausanne, LPTP) ; Monin, Alexander (South Carolina U.) ; Rattazzi, Riccardo (EPFL, Lausanne, LPTP)
The weak gravity conjecture has been invoked to conjecture that the dimensions of charged operators in a CFT should obey a superadditivity relation (sometimes referred to as convexity). In this paper, we study superadditivity of the operator spectrum in theories expanded about the semi-classical saddle point that dominates correlators of large charge operators. [...]

Personal Memories of 50 Years of Quarkonia / Ellis, John (King's Coll. London ; CERN)
The world of particle physics was revolutionised in November 1974 by the discovery of the J/psi particle, the first particle to be identified as a quarkonium state composed of charm quarks and antiquarks. The charmonium interpretation of the J/psi was cemented by the subsequent observations of a spectrum of related c c̅ states, and finally by the discovery of charmed particles in 1976. [...]

ADM, BMS, and some puzzling interconnections / Veneziano, Gabriele (CERN ; College de France)
The precise connection between the ADM and BMS formalisms is still far from being fully understood. It leads superficially to some puzzles whose resolution can provide new interesting physical insights. [...]

The LHC has ruled out supersymmetry – really? / Constantin, L. (LPSC, Grenoble) ; Kraml, S. (LPSC, Grenoble) ; Mahmoudi, F. (IP2I, Lyon ; CERN ; IUF, Paris)
Despite early hopes that the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) would quickly unveil supersymmetric particles, none have been detected to date. This review examines the impact of the LHC results on the viability of weak-scale supersymmetry, and discusses whether the possibility of discovering supersymmetric particles remains within reach..

Spontaneous Magnetogenesis at the Electroweak Phase Transition / Domcke, Valerie (CERN) ; Ema, Yohei (CERN) ; Patel, Teerthal (Vanderbilt U.)
Spontaneous CP violation during the electroweak phase transition can induce a twisting of the magnetic field configuration of Standard Model dumbbells, resulting in sizable intergalactic magnetic fields and a small baryon asymmetry, in agreement with observations. We demonstrate this by coupling the electroweak gauge group of the Standard Model to an axion-like particle with a non-vanishing velocity. [...]

The Simplest Dark Matter Model at the Edge of Perturbativity / Escudero Abenza, Miguel (CERN) ; Hambye, Thomas (Brussels U.)
Increasingly sensitive direct detection dark matter experiments are testing important regions of parameter space for WIMP dark matter and pushing many models to the multi-TeV regime. This brings into question the perturbativity of these models. [...]

Long distance contributions to neutral $D$-meson mixing from lattice QCD / Di Carlo, Matteo (CERN) ; Erben, Felix (CERN) ; Hansen, Maxwell T. (Edinburgh U.)
The study of neutral $D$-meson mixing provides a unique probe of long-distance effects in the charm sector, where Standard Model contributions are dominated by nonperturbative effects. In this work, we investigate the feasibility of using spectral reconstruction techniques within lattice QCD to compute the long-distance contributions to $D^0- \bar{D}^0$ mixing. [...]

Geometry of soft scalars at one loop / Cohen, Timothy (CERN ; EPFL, Lausanne, LPTP ; Oregon U.) ; Fadakar, Ipak (EPFL, Lausanne, LPTP ; Pisa, Scuola Normale Superiore) ; Helset, Andreas (CERN) ; Nardi, Filippo (EPFL, Lausanne, LPTP)
We extend the soft theorems for scattering amplitudes of scalar effective field theories to one-loop order. Our analysis requires carefully accounting for the fact that the soft limit is not guaranteed to commute with evaluating IR-divergent loop integrals; new results for the soft limit of general scalar one-loop integrals are presented.

How Accidental was Inflation? / Antoniadis, Ignatios (Chulalongkorn U. ; Paris, LPTHE) ; Ellis, John (King's Coll. London ; CERN) ; Ke, Wenqi (Minnesota U.) ; Nanopoulos, Dimitri V. (CERN ; Athens Academy ; Texas A-M) ; Olive, Keith A. (Minnesota U.)
Data on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) are discriminating between different models of inflation, disfavoring simple monomial potentials whilst being consistent with models whose predictions resemble those of the Starobinsky $R + R^2$ cosmological model. However, this model may suffer from theoretical problems, since it requires a large initial field value, threatening the validity of the effective field theory. [...]
