Brout–Englert–Higgs physics: From foundations to phenomenology

A Maas - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2019 - Elsevier
Abstract Brout–Englert–Higgs physics is one of the most central and successful parts of the
standard model. It is also part of a multitude of beyond-the-standard-model scenarios. The …

Entanglement generation in QED scattering processes

M Rigobello, S Notarnicola, G Magnifico, S Montangero - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
We study real-time meson-meson scattering processes in (1+ 1)-dimensional QED by
means of tensor networks. We prepare initial meson wave packets with given momentum …

Abelian anyons on flux-quantized M5-branes

H Sati, U Schreiber - arxiv preprint arxiv:2408.11896, 2024 - arxiv.org
While fractional quantum Hall systems provide the best experimental evidence yet of
(abelian) anyons plausibly necessary for future fault-tolerant quantum computation, like all …

[HTML][HTML] Holism and nonseparability in physics

R Healey, H Gomes - 1999 - plato.stanford.edu
It has sometimes been suggested that quantum phenomena exhibit a characteristic holism
or nonseparability, and that this distinguishes quantum from classical physics. One puzzling …
