Laser Stabilised Ionising Transitions

Leave a Comment / arXiv, Model Drift /

URL https://arxiv.org/pdf/2506.10183.pdf Stage Model Drift Paradigm framing The dominant paradigm is the Fano model of bound-to-continuum transitions and resonant fluorescence. The preprint introduces a drift by demonstrating the emergence of a novel metastable state under resonant pumping. Highlights The preprint operates within the established paradigm of Fano's theory of bound-to-continuum transitions and utilizes resonant fluorescence

What is the Quark-Gluon Plasma made of?

Leave a Comment / arXiv, Model Drift /

URL https://arxiv.org/pdf/2506.07181.pdf Stage Model Drift Paradigm framing The current paradigm considers the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) as a strongly coupled liquid-like state composed of short-lived quasiparticles. This preprint evaluates the existing paradigm using both perturbative and non-perturbative methods including hard-thermal loop perturbation theory, lattice QCD, and the functional renormalization group. Highlights This preprint surveys the current
