abstract
A new class of solutions to the electroweak hierarchy problem is presented that does not require either weak scale dynamics or anthropics. Dynamical evolution during the early universe drives the Higgs mass to a value much smaller than the cutoff. The simplest model has the particle content of the standard model plus a QCD axion and an inflation sector. The highest cutoff achieved in any technically natural model is 10^8 GeV.

A covariant framework identifies redefinition-invariant ALP couplings to gluons and quarks and computes physical decay rates for mixed scenarios.
Holographic confining QFTs on negative-curvature manifolds show no phase transitions with a dominant saddle, while positive-curvature cases exhibit first- and second-order transitions depending on the theory class, plus a Vafa-Witten theorem at theta zero.
Hybrid inflation model with Z_N-symmetric waterfall fields cancels quadratic radiative corrections for any N and logarithmic ones for N>2, yielding a stable inflaton potential and domain-wall-free reheating via Higgs-portal couplings.
No weak scale triggers exist in the SMEFT up to dimension six (and likely eight) that can solve the hierarchy problem far above the weak scale.
This work provides a comprehensive analysis of light new physics contributions to tau lepton dipole moments, detailing interpretations of asymmetry measurements for spin-0 and spin-1 bosons, their decoupling to the EFT limit, and a case study of a tauphilic vector boson at Belle II.
White dwarf mass-radius data exclude large parameter space for ultralight scalars quadratically coupled to fermions by predicting forbidden radius gaps and mass shifts toward the Chandrasekhar limit or altered maximum masses.
Theoretical proposal for a spacecraft-Earth experiment to constrain spin- and velocity-dependent fifth forces mediated by ultralight vector bosons, claiming up to three orders of magnitude improvement over current bounds.
Limits on axion-like particles from photon-coupling searches are recast as constraints on massive graviton-like particles across lab, astrophysical, and cosmological experiments using analogous Primakoff and Gertsenshtein conversion mechanisms.
Collapsing axion-like domain walls generate the baryon asymmetry by acting as an effective chemical potential through coupling to the electroweak topological term, with the asymmetry produced via sphaleron processes.
An axion-like particle's domain wall or shock wave induces an electroweak phase boundary whose motion creates a local B+L chemical potential that biases active sphalerons to generate net baryon asymmetry.
A naturally light scalar-like distortion field emerges in generalized gravity and mixes with the Higgs boson.
ALP-assisted first-order phase transitions can explain observed intergalactic magnetic fields and produce detectable gravitational waves, linking cosmology with particle physics searches.
STCF can reach |V_eN|^2 values one to two orders of magnitude below current bounds for heavy neutral leptons via displaced-vertex searches from ALP decays in D-meson production.
The FCC feasibility study describes how a staged electron-positron and hadron collider could deliver precision measurements on the Higgs, electroweak bosons, and top quark while searching for physics beyond the Standard Model.
Presents the science case, reference design, and project plan for the CMB-S4 ground-based CMB experiment.
