Cover Story: Since the initial measurements of single-top quark production at the Tevatron in 2009, tremendous progress has been made at the LHC. While LHC Run 1 marked the beginning of a precision era, LHC Run 2 witnessed the emergence and the in-depth exploration of new processes associating top quark production with a neutral boson, with a particular emphasis on the tZ production. In this paper, we review the measurements of the main production mechanisms, the associated production with a neutral boson, and precision measurements such as differential cross-sections and other top quark properties. The effective field theory framework is emerging as a standard for interpreting property measurements. Different perspectives for LHC Run 3 and the HL-LHC are discussed. View this paper

21 October 2023

In teleparallel geometries, the coframe and corresponding spin connection are the principal geometric objects and, consequently, the appropriate definition of a symmetry is that of an affine symmetry. The set of invariant coframes and their correspon...

In this work, we perform a comparative study of the Kantowski–Sachs (KS) and Bianchi-I anisotropic universes with Modified Chaplygin gas (MCG) as matter source. We obtain the volume and scale factors as solutions to the Einstein Field Equations...

In this paper, we study the localization of the five-dimensional U(1) gauge field coupled with a background scalar potential on symmetric and asymmetric degenerate Bloch branes. By decomposing the U(1) gauge field AM into its vector part (A^M) and sc...

There exists a puzzling disagreement between the results for the neutron lifetime obtained in experiments using the beam technique versus those relying on the bottle method. A possible explanation of this discrepancy postulates the existence of a bey...

Multi-scale modeling of expanding plasmas is crucial for understanding the dynamics and evolution of various astrophysical plasma systems such as the solar and stellar winds. In this context, the Expanding Box Model (EBM) provides a valuable framewor...

It is known that, in quantum field theory, localized operations, e.g., given by unitary operators in local observable algebras, may lead to non-causal, or superluminal, state changes within their localization region. In this article, it is shown that...
