1. Complex $S_3$-symmetric 3HDM

Author: Kunčinas, A., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Kunčinas, A., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: CP violation plays a very important role in nature with implications both for Particle Physics and for Cosmology. Accounting for the observed matter anti-matter asymmetry of the Universe requires the existence of new sources of CP violation beyond the Standard Model. In models with an extended scalar sector CP violation can emerge either explicitly, i.e., at the Lagrangian level, or spontaneously. In the context of multi-Higgs extensions of the Standard Model imposing the existence of a scalar basis where all couplings are real is a sufficient condition for CP to be explicitly conserved. We discuss a three-Higgs-doublet model with an underlying $S_3$ symmetry, allowing in principle for complex couplings. In this framework it is possible to have either spontaneous or explicit CP violation in the scalar sector, depending on the regions of parameter space corresponding to the different possible vacua of the $S_3$ symmetric potential. We list all possible vacuum structures allowing for CP violation in the scalar sector specifying whether it can be explicit or spontaneous. It is by now established that CP is violated in the flavour sector and that the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix is complex. In order to understand what are the possible sources of CP violation in the Yukawa sector we analyse the implications of the different available choices of representations for the quarks under the $S_3$ group. This classification is based strictly on the exact $S_3$-symmetric scalar potential with no soft symmetry breaking terms. The scalar sector of one such model was explored numerically. After applying the theoretical and the most important experimental constraints the available parameter space is shown to be able to give rise to light neutral scalars at the $\mathcal{O}(\text{MeV})$ scale., Comment: 42 pages, 2 figures, V2: version consistent with JHEP

2. Revisiting two dark matter candidates in $S_3$-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet models

Abstract: Models with an extended scalar electroweak sector are well motivated. Such models could accommodate a dark matter candidate if there is an additional scalar representation with a vanishing vacuum expectation value and, in addition, there are no couplings between fermions and the dark matter candidate. The most natural way to have these conditions implemented is to consider models where an underlying symmetry is imposed. Governed by this, we consider a three-Higgs-doublet model with an $S_3$ symmetry. Within this framework there are different implementations which could possibly accommodate a dark matter candidate. The family of $S_3$-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet implementations arises due to different vacua and, as a result, different minimisation conditions. In this framework the dark matter candidate falls into the class of weakly interacting massive particles. The dark matter candidate is associated with an $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry which survives spontaneous symmetry breaking and is a remnant of the $S_3$ symmetry. We explore two cases, they share many aspects of the Type-I two-Higgs-doublet model plus an inert SU(2) doublet. The main difference between these two cases is the presence of an irremovable phase, which leads to CP violation in one of the implementations. The two candidate cases differ from other previously studied models with three scalar doublets by the fact that they do not allow for heavy dark matter candidates, $\mathcal{O}(500)\text{ GeV}$. Valid dark matter regions were identified as $m_\mathrm{DM} \in [52.5,\,89]~\text{GeV}$ for a model without CP violation and $m_\mathrm{DM} \in [6.5,\,44.5]~\text{GeV}$ for a model with CP violation. In the present work we refine the parameter space by applying additional checks to our previous work coming from LHC data and from indirect detection data., Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures, to be published in the Proceedings of DISCRETE 2022: 8th Symposium on Prospects in the Physics of Discrete Symmetries, 7-11 November, 2022, Baden-Baden, Germany

Abstract: We review the theory and phenomenology of isosinglet vector-like quarks (VLQs). In recent years, interest in VLQs has been increasing, due to their contributions to new physics effects that can be tested in experiments at LHC and High-Luminosity LHC. The similarities of models with isosinglet VLQs and the seesaw framework in the leptonic sector are pointed out. The existence of VLQs leads to flavour-changing neutral currents at tree level and deviations from unitarity of the CKM matrix, introducing rich phenomenological implications. These new effects are naturally suppressed by the masses of the new quarks, that are constrained to be above the electroweak scale. In addition, striking new effects can be achieved with the inclusion of an extra complex scalar singlet. Such a minimal extension of the SM can give rise to new sources of CP violation with profound theoretical implications, allowing for a solution to the strong CP problem and a possible explanation for the baryon asymmetry of the Universe. We list and explain strong motivations to consider this class of models. We also briefly review how models with VLQs can be matched to the SM effective field theory (SMEFT). A detailed analysis of flavour observables that can be affected by the presence of VLQs is presented. Current bounds from collider searches of VLQs are summarized. We point out that the discovery of VLQs can be within the reach of present or future colliders being planned., Comment: 116 pages, 7 figures, 7 tables. Work intended as a review.

Abstract: For the estimation of the soil organic carbon stocks, bulk density (BD) is a fundamental parameter but measured data are usually not available especially when dealing with legacy soil data. It is possible to estimate BD by applying pedotransfer function (PTF). We applied different estimation methods with the aim to define a suitable PTF for BD of arable land for the Mediterranean Basin, which has peculiar climate features that may influence the soil carbon sequestration. To improve the existing BD estimation methods, we used a set of public climatic and topographic data along with the soil texture and organic carbon data. The present work consisted of the following steps: i) development of three PTFs models separately for top (0–0.4 m) and subsoil (0.4–1.2 m), ii) a 10-fold cross-validation, iii) model transferability using an external dataset derived from published data. The development of the new PTFs was based on the training dataset consisting of World Soil Information Service (WoSIS) soil profile data, climatic data from WorldClim at 1 km spatial resolution and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) digital elevation model at 30 m spatial resolution. The three PTFs models were developed using: Multiple Linear Regression stepwise (MLR-S), Multiple Linear Regression backward stepwise (MLR-BS), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The predictions of the newly developed PTFs were compared with the BD calculated using the PTF proposed by Manrique and Jones (MJ) and the modelled BD derived from the global SoilGrids dataset. For the topsoil training dataset (N = 129), MLR-S, MLR-BS and ANN had a R2 0.35, 0.58 and 0.86, respectively. For the model transferability, the three PTFs applied to the external topsoil dataset (N = 59), achieved R2 values of 0.06, 0.03 and 0.41. For the subsoil training dataset (N = 180), MLR-S, MLR-BS and ANN the R2 values were 0.36, 0.46 and 0.83, respectively. When applied to the external subsoil dataset (N = 29), the R2 values were 0.05, 0

Abstract: Background: The Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) is frequently used to measure frailty in critically ill adults. There is wide variation in the approach to analysing the relationship between the CFS score and mortality after admission to the ICU. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of modelling approach on the association between the CFS score and short-term mortality and quantify the prognostic value of frailty in this context. Methods: We analysed data from two multicentre prospective cohort studies which enrolled intensive care unit patients ≥ 80 years old in 26 countries. The primary outcome was mortality within 30-days from admission to the ICU. Logistic regression models for both ICU and 30-day mortality included the CFS score as either a categorical, continuous or dichotomous variable and were adjusted for patient’s age, sex, reason for admission to the ICU, and admission Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score. Results: The median age in the sample of 7487 consecutive patients was 84 years (IQR 81–87). The highest fraction of new prognostic information from frailty in the context of 30-day mortality was observed when the CFS score was treated as either a categorical variable using all original levels of frailty or a nonlinear continuous variable and was equal to 9% using these modelling approaches (p < 0.001). The relationship between the CFS score and mortality was nonlinear (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Knowledge about a patient’s frailty status adds a substantial amount of new prognostic information at the moment of admission to the ICU. Arbitrary simplification of the CFS score into fewer groups than originally intended leads to a loss of information and should be avoided. Trial registration NCT03134807 (VIP1), NCT03370692 (VIP2)

6. Dark matter in a CP-violating three-Higgs-doublet model with $S_3$ symmetry

Author: Kunčinas, A., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Kunčinas, A., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: In spite of the success of the Standard Model of Particle Physics, there are some theoretical predictions which are not yet fully established experimentally as well as some experimental observations which cannot be fitted within its theoretical framework, thus requiring physics beyond the Standard Model. One of these is a hypothetical non-luminous form of matter - dark matter. Models with an extended scalar electroweak sector yield plausible dark matter candidates. In this paper we study a specific model, C-III-a, from a family of $S_3$-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet models. The model consists of two active SU(2) doublets and an inert one. The latter is inert due to a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry that survives the breaking of $S_3$, and would accommodate a dark matter particle. We explore the model numerically, based on theoretical and experimental constraints. After applying a number of successive checks over the parameter space we found a viable dark matter mass region in the range $[6.5;\,44.5]~\text{GeV}$. This region is drastically different from the Higgs-like dark matter states that have been proposed: the well-known Inert Doublet Model and models with three scalar doublets, with one or two inert doublets. Furthermore, the C-III-a model allows for spontaneous CP violation., Comment: 40 pages, 12 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2108.07026

7. Two dark matter candidates in three-Higgs-doublet models with $S_3$ symmetry

Abstract: Models with an extended scalar electroweak sector can have vanishing vacuum expectation values in a basis where an underlying symmetry is imposed. Such extensions are very well motivated. If a symmetry prevents couplings between fermions and additional scalars, such scalars could become viable dark matter candidates if some additional criteria are satisfied. We catalogue $S_3$-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet models, also allowing for softly broken $S_3$-symmetric scalar potential terms, based on whether a specific model could possibly accommodate a dark matter candidate. The variety of the $S_3$-symmetric family models arises due to different possibilities to arrange vacuum expectation values. Such models can have vacua with one or two vanishing vacuum expectation values. In our study we assume that the dark matter candidate is stabilised by the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry. The $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry is a remnant of $S_3$ symmetry which survived spontaneous symmetry breaking, and not superimposed over $S_3$. We explore two models; with an without CP violation. These models have a single dark and two active scalar sectors. The active sectors behave in many aspects like a Type-I two-Higgs-doublet model. The dark matter candidate masses, in two cases, are different from the known (previously studied) models with three scalar doublets. After investigating the models in detail, identifying parameters compatible with both theoretical and experimental constraints, we found that the dark matter candidate mass could be within the range of $[52.5,\,89]~\text{GeV}$ or $[6.5,\,44.5]~\text{GeV}$ for a model with CP violation., Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, to be published in the Proceedings of DISCRETE 2020-2021: 7th Symposium on Prospects in the Physics of Discrete Symmetries, 29th November - 3rd December 2021, Bergen, Norway; v2: Minor changes

8. Parasite Viability as a Measure of In Vivo Drug Activity in Preclinical and Early Clinical Antimalarial Drug Assessment

Abstract: The rate at which parasitemia declines in a host after treatment with an antimalarial drug is a major metric for assessment of antimalarial drug activity in preclinical models and in early clinical trials. However, this metric does not distinguish between viable and nonviable parasites. Thus, enumeration of parasites may result in underestimation of drug activity for some compounds, potentially confounding its use as a metric for assessing antimalarial activity in vivo. Here, we report a study of the effect of artesunate on Plasmodium falciparum viability in humans and in mice. We first measured the drug effect in mice by estimating the decrease in parasite viability after treatment using two independent approaches to estimate viability. We demonstrate that, as previously reported in humans, parasite viability declines much faster after artesunate treatment than does the decline in parasitemia (termed parasite clearance). We also observed that artesunate kills parasites faster at higher concentrations, which is not discernible from the traditional parasite clearance curve and that each subsequent dose of artesunate maintains its killing effect. Furthermore, based on measures of parasite viability, we could accurately predict the in vivo recrudescence of infection. Finally, using pharmacometrics modeling, we show that the apparent differences in the antimalarial activity of artesunate in mice and humans are partly explained by differences in host removal of dead parasites in the two hosts. However, these differences, along with different pharmacokinetic profiles, do not fully account for the differences in activity.

9. Light scalars in the Weinberg 3HDM potential with spontaneous CP violation

Author: Plantey, R., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Solberg, M. Aa., Plantey, R., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., and Solberg, M. Aa.
Abstract: The $\mathbb Z_2\times \mathbb Z_2$-symmetric 3HDM potential, sometimes called Weinberg's 3HDM potential, can accommodate both explicit and spontaneous CP violation as well as natural flavour conservation and is hence relevant for studies of CP violation coming from a realistic extended Higgs sector. The model has an interesting regime, controlled by a single parameter, where it acquires an approximate global $U(1) \times U(1)$ symmetry which causes CP violating effects to be small and two pseudo-Goldstone bosons to be present in the scalar spectrum. From parameter space scans, we find that, in a realistic implementation featuring an SM-like Higgs boson, this model predominantely leads to the existence of light additional Higgs bosons with a mass lower than the SM-like Higgs boson.

10. Weinberg's 3HDM potential with spontaneous CP violation

Author: Plantey, R., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Solberg, M. Aa., Plantey, R., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., and Solberg, M. Aa.
Abstract: We study the $\mathbb{Z}_2 \times \mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet model (3HDM) designed to accommodate CP violation in the scalar sector within a gauge theory, while at the same time allowing for natural flavour conservation. This framework allows for both explicit and spontaneous CP violation. CP can be explicitly violated when the coefficients of the potential are taken to be complex. With coefficients chosen to be real, CP can be spontaneously violated via complex vacuum expectation values (vevs). In the absence of the terms leading to the possibility of CP violation, either explicit or induced by complex vevs, the potential has two global U(1) symmetries. In this case, spontaneous symmetry breaking would in general give rise to massless states. In a realistic implementation, those terms must be included, thus preventing the existence of Goldstone bosons. A scan over parameters, imposing the existence of a neutral state at 125 GeV that is nearly CP-even, typically results in the existence of one or two states with masses below 125 GeV that have a significant CP-odd component. These light states would have a low production rate via the Bjorken process and could thus have escaped detection at LEP., Comment: 22 pages, 7 figures

Abstract: In this talk we emphasise the importance of vector-like quarks (VLQs) and their potential to solve some of the open questions of the Standard Model. These are, in some sense minimal extensions of the Standard Model, that can be probed in the next round of experiments. We also make an analogy between vector-like quarks(VLQs) and right-handed neutrinos, emphasising that in both cases some of the flavour dogmas of the SM are violated in a controlled way., Comment: Contribution to 7th Symposium on Prospects in the Physics of Discrete Symmetries (DISCRETE 2020-2021), 29th November - 3rd December 2021, Bergen, Norway

Abstract: Background: The number of intensive care patients aged ≥ 80 years (Very old Intensive Care Patients; VIPs) is growing. VIPs have high mortality and morbidity and the benefits of ICU admission are frequently questioned. Sepsis incidence has risen in recent years and identification of outcomes is of considerable public importance. We aimed to determine whether VIPs admitted for sepsis had different outcomes than those admitted for other acute reasons and identify potential prognostic factors for 30-day survival. Results: This prospective study included VIPs with Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores ≥ 2 acutely admitted to 307 ICUs in 21 European countries. Of 3869 acutely admitted VIPs, 493 (12.7%) [53.8% male, median age 83 (81–86) years] were admitted for sepsis. Sepsis was defined according to clinical criteria; suspected or demonstrated focus of infection and SOFA score ≥ 2 points. Compared to VIPs admitted for other acute reasons, VIPs admitted for sepsis were younger, had a higher SOFA score (9 vs. 7, p < 0.0001), required more vasoactive drugs [82.2% vs. 55.1%, p < 0.0001] and renal replacement therapies [17.4% vs. 9.9%; p < 0.0001], and had more life-sustaining treatment limitations [37.3% vs. 32.1%; p = 0.02]. Frailty was similar in both groups. Unadjusted 30-day survival was not significantly different between the two groups. After adjustment for age, gender, frailty, and SOFA score, sepsis had no impact on 30-day survival [HR 0.99 (95% CI 0.86–1.15), p = 0.917]. Inverse-probability weight (IPW)-adjusted survival curves for the first 30 days after ICU admission were similar for acute septic and non-septic patients [HR: 1.00 (95% CI 0.87–1.17), p = 0.95]. A matched-pair analysis in which patients with sepsis were matched with two control patients of the same gender with the same age, SOFA score, and level of frailty was also performed. A Cox proportional hazard regression model stratified on the matched pairs showed that 30-day

Abstract: OBJECTIVES: To develop a scoring system model that predicts mortality within 30 days of admission of patients older than 80 years admitted to intensive care units (ICUs). DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING: A total of 306 ICUs from 24 European countries. PARTICIPANTS: Older adults admitted to European ICUs (N = 3730; median age = 84 years [interquartile range = 81-87 y]; 51.8% male). MEASUREMENTS: Overall, 24 variables available during ICU admission were included as potential predictive variables. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of 30-day mortality. Model sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were evaluated with receiver operating characteristic curves. RESULTS: The 30-day-mortality was 1562 (41.9%). In multivariable analysis, these variables were selected as independent predictors of mortality: age, sex, ICU admission diagnosis, Clinical Frailty Scale, Sequential Organ Failure Score, invasive mechanical ventilation, and renal replacement therapy. The discrimination, accuracy, and calibration of the model were good: the area under the curve for a score of 10 or higher was.80, and the Brier score was.18. At a cut point of 10 or higher (75% of all patients), the model predicts 30-day mortality in 91.1% of all patients who die. CONCLUSION: A predictive model of cumulative events predicts 30-day mortality in patients older than 80 years admitted to ICUs. Future studies should include other potential predictor variables including functional status, presence of advance care plans, and assessment of each patient's decision-making capacity.

14. 3HDM with $\Delta(27)$ symmetry and its phenomenological consequences

Author: Kalinowski, J., Kotlarski, W., Rebelo, M. N., Varzielas, I. de Medeiros, Kalinowski, J., Kotlarski, W., Rebelo, M. N., and Varzielas, I. de Medeiros
Abstract: We perform a thorough analysis of the 3-Higgs doublet model with a scalar potential invariant under a global $\Delta(27)$ discrete symmetry. The three scalar doublets are chosen to transform as triplets under the discrete group. For each of the known tree-level minima, we study the mass spectra and use the oblique parameters $STU$ and perturbative unitarity to constrain the parameter space of this model. We then consider phenomenological consequences of some leading order quark Yukawa couplings by considering the flavour violation process $b \to s \gamma$. We show that unitarity constraints greatly limit the parameter space of the model, conversely $b \to s \gamma$ is automatically tamed by the symmetry., Comment: 26 pages, 3 figures; minor text revision

15. Decays of the Heavy Top and New Insights on $\epsilon_K$ in a one-VLQ Minimal Solution to the CKM Unitarity Problem

Author: Botella, Francisco J., Branco, G. C., Rebelo, M. N., Silva-Marcos, J. I., Bastos, José Filipe, Botella, Francisco J., Branco, G. C., Rebelo, M. N., Silva-Marcos, J. I., and Bastos, José Filipe
Abstract: We propose a minimal extension of the Standard Model where an up-type vector-like quark, denoted $T$, is introduced and provides a simple solution to the CKM unitarity problem. We adopt the Botella-Chau parametrization in order to extract the $4\times 3$ quark mixing matrix which contains the three angles of the $3\times 3$ CKM matrix plus three new angles denoted $\theta_{14}$, $\theta_{24}$, $\theta_{34}$. It is assumed that the mixing of $T$ with standard quarks is dominated by $\theta_{14}$. Imposing a recently derived, and much more restrictive, upper-bound on the New Physics contributions to $\epsilon_{K}$, we find, in the limit of exact $\theta_{14}$ dominance where the other extra angles vanish, that $\epsilon_{K}^{\text{NP}}$ is too large. However, if one relaxes the exact $\theta_{14}$ dominance limit, there exists a parameter region, where one may obtain $\epsilon_{K}^{\text{NP}}$ in agreement with experiment while maintaining the novel pattern of $T$ decays with the heavy quark decaying predominantly to the light quarks $d$ and $u$. We also find a reduction in the decay rate of $K_L\rightarrow \pi^o \nu\bar{\nu}$., Comment: 33 pages, 8 figures, 1 table

16. Dark matter in three-Higgs-doublet models with $S_3$ symmetry

Author: Khater, W., Kunčinas, A., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Khater, W., Kunčinas, A., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: Models with two or more scalar doublets with discrete or global symmetries can have vacua with vanishing vacuum expectation values in the bases where symmetries are imposed. If a suitable symmetry stabilises such vacua, these models may lead to interesting dark matter candidates, provided that the symmetry prevents couplings among the dark matter candidates and the fermions. We analyse three-Higgs-doublet models with an underlying $S_3$ symmetry. These models have many distinct vacua with one or two vanishing vacuum expectation values which can be stabilised by a remnant of the $S_3$ symmetry which survived spontaneous symmetry breaking. We discuss all possible vacua in the context of $S_3$-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet models, allowing also for softly broken $S_3$, and explore one of the vacuum configurations in detail. In the case we explore, only one of the three Higgs doublets is inert. The other two are active, and therefore the active sector, in many aspects, behaves like a two-Higgs-doublet model. The way the fermions couple to the scalar sector is constrained by the $S_3$ symmetry and is such that the flavour structure of the model is solely governed by the $V_\text{CKM}$ matrix which, in our framework, is not constrained by the $S_3$ symmetry. This is a key requirement for models with minimal flavour violation. In our model there is no CP violation in the scalar sector. We study this model in detail giving the masses and couplings and identifying the range of parameters that are compatible with theoretical and experimental constraints, both from accelerator physics and from astrophysics., Comment: 50 pages, 14 figures, V2: typos fixed, some plots changed, V3: minor text edits, V4: version consistent with JHEP

17. Development and evaluation of a new Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 blood stage malaria cell bank for use in malaria volunteer infection studies

Author: Woolley, SD, Fernandez, M, Rebelo, M, Llewellyn, SA, Marquart, L, Amante, FH, Jennings, HE, Webster, R, Trenholme, K, Chalon, S, Moehrle, JJ, McCarthy, JS, Barber, BE, Woolley, SD, Fernandez, M, Rebelo, M, Llewellyn, SA, Marquart, L, Amante, FH, Jennings, HE, Webster, R, Trenholme, K, Chalon, S, Moehrle, JJ, McCarthy, JS, and Barber, BE
Abstract: BACKGROUND: New anti-malarial therapeutics are required to counter the threat of increasing drug resistance. Malaria volunteer infection studies (VIS), particularly the induced blood stage malaria (IBSM) model, play a key role in accelerating anti-malarial drug development. Supply of the reference 3D7-V2 Plasmodium falciparum malaria cell bank (MCB) is limited. This study aimed to develop a new MCB, and compare the safety and infectivity of this MCB with the existing 3D7-V2 MCB, in a VIS. A second bank (3D7-V1) developed in 1995 was also evaluated. METHODS: The 3D7-V2 MCB was expanded in vitro using a bioreactor to produce a new MCB designated 3D7-MBE-008. This bank and 3D7-V1 were then evaluated using the IBSM model, where healthy participants were intravenously inoculated with blood-stage parasites. Participants were treated with artemether-lumefantrine when parasitaemia or clinical thresholds were reached. Safety, infectivity and parasite growth and clearance were evaluated. RESULTS: The in vitro expansion of 3D7-V2 produced 200 vials of the 3D7-MBE-008 MCB, with a parasitaemia of 4.3%. This compares to 0.1% in the existing 3D7-V2 MCB, and < 0.01% in the 3D7-V1 MCB. All four participants (two per MCB) developed detectable P. falciparum infection after inoculation with approximately 2800 parasites. For the 3D7-MBE-008 MCB, the parasite multiplication rate of 48 h (PMR48) using non-linear mixed effects modelling was 34.6 (95% CI 18.5-64.6), similar to the parental 3D7-V2 line; parasitaemia in both participants exceeded 10,000/mL by day 8. Growth of the 3D7-V1 was slower (PMR48 of 11.5 [95% CI 8.5-15.6]), with parasitaemia exceeding 10,000 parasites/mL on days 10 and 8.5. Rapid parasite clearance followed artemether-lumefantrine treatment in all four participants, with clearance half-lives of 4.01 and 4.06 (weighted mean 4.04 [95% CI 3.61-4.57]) hours for 3D7-MBE-008 and 4.11 and 4.52 (weighted mean 4.31 [95% CI 4.16-4.47]) hours for 3D7-V1.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: In the absence of a method to culture Plasmodium vivax, the only way to source parasites is ex vivo. This hampers many aspects of P. vivax research. This study aimed to assess the safety of apheresis, a method for selective removal of specific components of blood as a means of extracting and concentrating P. vivax parasites. METHODS: An iterative approach was employed across four non-immune healthy human subjects in single subject cohorts. All four subjects were inoculated with ~ 564 blood stage P. vivax (HMP013-Pv) and subjected to apheresis 10 to 11 days later. Blood samples collected during apheresis (haematocrit layers 0.5% to 11%) were tested for the presence and concentration of P. vivax by microscopy, flow cytometry, 18S rDNA qPCR for total parasites, and pvs25 qRT-PCR for female gametocyte transcripts. Safety was determined by monitoring adverse events. Malaria transmission to mosquitoes was assessed by membrane feeding assays. RESULTS: There were no serious adverse events and no significant safety concerns. Apheresis concentrated asexual parasites by up to 4.9-fold (range: 0.9-4.9-fold) and gametocytes by up to 1.45-fold (range: 0.38-1.45-fold) compared to pre-apheresis densities. No single haematocrit layer contained > 40% of all the recovered P. vivax asexual parasites. Ex vivo concentration of parasites by Percoll gradient centrifugation of whole blood achieved greater concentration of gametocytes than apheresis. Mosquito transmission was enhanced by up to fivefold in a single apheresis sample compared to pre-apheresis. CONCLUSION: The modest level of parasite concentration suggests that the use of apheresis may not be an ideal method for harvesting P. vivax.

19. Addressing the CKM Unitarity Problem with a Vector-like Up Quark

Author: Branco, G. C., Penedo, J. T., Pereira, Pedro M. F., Rebelo, M. N., Silva-Marcos, J. I., Branco, G. C., Penedo, J. T., Pereira, Pedro M. F., Rebelo, M. N., and Silva-Marcos, J. I.
Abstract: We point out that hints of deviations from unitarity in the first row of the CKM matrix may be explained by the presence of a single vector-like top. We study how the stringent experimental constraints arising from CP Violation in the kaon sector and from meson mixing such as $D^0$-$\overline{D}^0$, $K^0$-$\overline{K}^0$ and $B^0_{d,s}$-$\overline{B}^0_{d,s}$ can be satisfied in the proposed framework. In order for the deviations from unitarity to be of the required size while keeping the theory perturbative, the new top quark should have a mass $m_T \lesssim 7$ TeV which could be probed in upcoming experiments at the energy frontier., Comment: 24 pages, 4 figures, 2 tables; comments and references added

Abstract: Purpose: To document and analyse the decision to withhold or withdraw life-sustaining treatment (LST) in a population of very old patients admitted to the ICU. Methods: This prospective study included intensive care patients aged ≥ 80 years in 309 ICUs from 21 European countries with 30-day mortality follow-up. Results: LST limitation was identified in 1356/5021 (27.2%) of patients: 15% had a withholding decision and 12.2% a withdrawal decision (including those with a previous withholding decision). Patients with LST limitation were older, more frail, more severely ill and less frequently electively admitted. Patients with withdrawal of LST were more frequently male and had a longer ICU length of stay. The ICU and 30-day mortality were, respectively, 29.1 and 53.1% in the withholding group and 82.2% and 93.1% in the withdrawal group. LST was less frequently limited in eastern and southern European countries than in northern Europe. The patient-independent factors associated with LST limitation were: acute ICU admission (OR 5.77, 95% CI 4.32–7.7), Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) score (OR 2.08, 95% CI 1.78–2.42), increased age (each 5 years of increase in age had a OR of 1.22 (95% CI 1.12–1.34) and SOFA score [OR of 1.07 (95% CI 1.05–1.09 per point)]. The frequency of LST limitation was higher in countries with high GDP and was lower in religious countries. Conclusions: The most important patient variables associated with the instigation of LST limitation were acute admission, frailty, age, admission SOFA score and country.

Abstract: Background Artemisinin resistance is threatening malaria control. We aimed to develop and test a human model of artemisinin-resistant (ART-R) Plasmodium falciparum to evaluate the efficacy of drugs against ART-R malaria. Methods and findings We conducted 2 sequential phase 1, single-centre, open-label clinical trials at Q-Pharm, Brisbane, Australia, using the induced blood-stage malaria (IBSM) model, whereby healthy participants are intravenously inoculated with blood-stage parasites. In a pilot study, participants were inoculated (Day 0) with approximately 2,800 viable P. falciparum ART-R parasites. In a comparative study, participants were randomised to receive approximately 2,800 viable P. falciparum ART-R (Day 0) or artemisinin-sensitive (ART-S) parasites (Day 1). In both studies, participants were administered a single approximately 2 mg/kg oral dose of artesunate (AS; Day 9). Primary outcomes were safety, ART-R parasite infectivity, and parasite clearance. In the pilot study, 2 participants were enrolled between April 27, 2017, and September 12, 2017, and included in final analyses (males n = 2 [100%], mean age = 26 years [range, 23–28 years]). In the comparative study, 25 participants were enrolled between October 26, 2017, and October 18, 2018, of whom 22 were inoculated and included in final analyses (ART-R infected participants: males n = 7 [53.8%], median age = 22 years [range, 18–40 years]; ART-S infected participants: males n = 5 [55.6%], median age = 28 years [range, 22–35 years]). In both studies, all participants inoculated with ART-R parasites became parasitaemic. A total of 36 adverse events were reported in the pilot study and 277 in the comparative study. Common adverse events in both studies included headache, pyrexia, myalgia, nausea, and chills; none were serious. Seven participants experienced transient severe falls in white cell counts and/or elevations in liver transaminase levels which were considered related to malaria. Additionally, 2 pa

25. $S_3$-inspired three-Higgs-doublet models: A class with a complex vacuum

Author: Kuncinas, A., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Kuncinas, A., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: In this paper we analyse in detail an $S_3$-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet model with a specific vacuum configuration. This analysis allows us to illustrate important features of models with several Higgs doublets, such as the possibility of having spontaneous CP violation. We start with a real potential and pick a particularly interesting complex vacuum configuration, which does not violate CP before adding soft breaking terms to the potential. We study the r\^ ole played by different soft symmetry breaking terms. These are essential for our choice of vacuum in order to remove unwanted massless scalars which arise from the spontaneous breaking of an accidental continuous symmetry. We list scalar sector and scalar-gauge sector-couplings for the particular case we consider in detail in this work. Results presented in this paper will be useful for model building, in particular for implementations of models with $S_3$ symmetry and spontaneous CP violation, extensions of the fermionic sector with realistic Yukawa couplings and for Dark Matter studies., Comment: 33 pages. v2: PRD version, Minor clarifications.

28. A generalised Phan–Thien—Tanner model

Author: Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Department of Mechanical Engineering, Ferrás, L.L., Morgado, M.L., Rebelo, M., McKinley, Gareth H, Afonso, A.M., Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Abstract: In this work we propose a novel generalised form of the Phan–Thien and Tanner (PTT) model by considering a new functional form of the nonlinear expression characterizing the destruction of physical network junctions and entanglements. This new function of the trace of the stress tensor is given by the generalized Mittag–Leffler function, and contains the familiar exponential form of the original Phan–Thien and Tanner model as a limiting case, but affords additional fitting flexibility through the inclusion of one or two additional fitting constants. We perform fits to experimental data in shear and extension and show that this generalized expression allows a better description of the rheological responses for a range of complex materials such as polymer melts and semidilute polymer solutions. By using an appropriate information criterion, we also demonstrate that the resulting generelized model remains parsimonious but provides improved fits of real world data. ©2019 The Authors, FEDER funds COMPETE2020 - Project PTDC/EMS-ENE/3362/2014, FEDER funds COMPETE2020 - POCI-01-0145-FEDER-016665, FCT - SFRH/BPD/100353/2014, FCT - (UID-MAT-00013/2013), FCT - (UID/Multi/04621/2019) - CEMAT/IST-ID, Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology - (project UID/MAT/00297/2019) - Centro de Matemática e Aplicações

Abstract: Purpose: Very old critical ill patients are a rapid expanding group in the ICU. Indications for admission, triage criteria and level of care are frequently discussed for such patients. However, most relevant outcome studies in this group frequently find an increased mortality and a reduced quality of life in survivors. The main objective was to study the impact of frailty compared with other variables with regards to short-term outcome in the very old ICU population. Methods: A transnational prospective cohort study from October 2016 to May 2017 with 30 days follow-up was set up by the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine. In total 311 ICUs from 21 European countries participated. The ICUs included the first consecutive 20 very old (≥ 80 years) patients admitted to the ICU within a 3-month inclusion period. Frailty, SOFA score and therapeutic procedures were registered, in addition to limitations of care. For measurement of frailty the Clinical Frailty Scale was used at ICU admission. The main outcomes were ICU and 30-day mortality and survival at 30 days. Results: A total of 5021 patients with a median age of 84 years (IQR 81–86 years) were included in the final analysis, 2404 (47.9%) were women. Admission was classified as acute in 4215 (83.9%) of the patients. Overall ICU and 30-day mortality rates were 22.1% and 32.6%. During ICU stay 23.8% of the patients did not receive specific ICU procedures: ventilation, vasoactive drugs or renal replacement therapy. Frailty (values ≥ 5) was found in 43.1% and was independently related to 30-day survival (HR 1.54; 95% CI 1.38–1.73) for frail versus non-frail. Conclusions: Among very old patients (≥ 80 years) admitted to the ICU, the consecutive classes in Clinical Frailty Scale were inversely associated with short-term survival. The scale had a very low number of missing data. These findings provide support to add frailty to the clinical assessment in this patient group. T

30. Type-I Seesaw with eV-Scale Neutrinos

Abstract: We consider seesaw type-I models including at least one (mostly-)sterile neutrino with mass at the eV scale. Three distinct situations are found, where the presence of light extra neutrinos is naturally justified by an approximately conserved lepton number symmetry. To analyse these scenarios consistently, it is crucial to employ an exact parametrisation of the full mixing matrix. We provide additional exact results, including generalised versions of the seesaw relation and of the Casas-Ibarra parametrisation, valid for every scale of seesaw. We find that the existence of a light sterile neutrino imposes an upper bound on the lightest neutrino mass. We further assess the impact of light sterile states on short- and long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments, emphasise future detection prospects, and address CP Violation in this framework via the analysis of CP asymmetries and construction of weak basis invariants. The proposed models can accommodate enough active-sterile mixing to play a role in the explanation of short-baseline anomalies., Comment: 40 pages, 3 figures, 4 tables

31. Implications of symmetries in the scalar sector

Abstract: Symmetries play a very important r\^ole in Particle Physics. In extended scalar sectors, the existence of symmetries may permit the models to comply with the experimental constraints in a natural way, and at the same time reduce the number of free parameters. There is a strong interplay among internal symmetries of the scalar potential, its CP properties and mass degeneracies of the physical scalars. Some of these aspects were discussed in this talk., Comment: 8 pages, to be published in the Proceedings of DISCRETE2018: 6th Symposium on Prospects in the Physics of Discrete Symmetries, 26-30 Nov 2018.

32. Symmetries and Mass Degeneracies in the Scalar Sector

Author: Haber, Howard E., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Haber, Howard E., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: We explore some aspects of models with two and three SU(2) scalar doublets that lead to mass degeneracies among some of the physical scalars. In Higgs sectors with two scalar doublets, the exact degeneracy of scalar masses, without an artificial fine-tuning of the scalar potential parameters, is possible only in the case of the inert doublet model (IDM), where the scalar potential respects a global U(1) symmetry that is not broken by the vacuum. In the case of three doublets, we introduce and analyze the replicated inert doublet model, which possesses two inert doublets of scalars. We then generalize this model to obtain a scalar potential, first proposed by Ivanov and Silva, with a CP4 symmetry that guarantees the existence of pairwise degenerate scalar states among two pairs of neutral scalars and two pairs of charged scalars. Here, CP4 is a generalized CP symmetry with the property that $({\rm CP}4)^n$ is the identity operator only for integer $n$ values that are multiples of 4. The form of the CP4-symmetric scalar potential is simplest when expressed in the Higgs basis, where the neutral scalar field vacuum expectation value resides entirely in one of the scalar doublet fields. The symmetries of the model permit a term in the scalar potential with a complex coefficient that cannot be removed by any redefinition of the scalar fields within the class of Higgs bases (in which case, we say that no real Higgs basis exists). A striking feature of the CP4-symmetric model is that it preserves CP even in the absence of a real Higgs basis, as illustrated by the cancellation of the contributions to the CP violating form factors of the effective ZZZ and ZWW vertices., Comment: 52 pages, 2 figures, second revised version with new material, as published by JHEP

33. Solving a Fine-Tuning Problem of the Standard Model through the Introduction of Vector-Like Quarks

Author: Botella, F. J., Branco, G. C., Nebot, M., Rebelo, M. N., Silva-Marcos, J. I., Botella, F. J., Branco, G. C., Nebot, M., Rebelo, M. N., and Silva-Marcos, J. I.
Abstract: We emphasise that even in the extreme chiral limit where only the top and bottom quarks acquire mass, quark mixing is physically meaningful. This implies that the natural value of $|V_{13}|^2 + |V_{23}|^2$ is of order one, which is to be compared to its experimental value of order $10^{-3}$ . We show how this fine-tuning problem of the Standard Model can be solved through an extension of the Standard Model where vector-like quarks and a complex singlet are introduced, together with a flavour symmetry. The mixings of the light quarks are generated through the mixing of the vector-like quarks with the standard quarks., Comment: 8 pages.

34. CP violation in extended Higgs sectors

Author: Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: We discuss how one can identify CP violation (and conservation) in multi-Higgs-doublet potentials. After a brief review of CP violation in the 2HDM, we refer to the fact that for NHDM with $N \geq 3$ the well known methods useful in the case $N = 2$ have not been generalized in order to provide a set of well defined necessary and sufficient conditions for CP conservation. We then present a simple method, proposed by the authors, to be used in such cases. Two non-trivial examples based on an $S_3$-symmetric three-doublet model are analyzed by means of this new method., Comment: 10 pages.

35. Neutrino Physics and Leptonic Weak Basis Invariants

Author: Rebelo, M. N. and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: In this talk we present a powerful tool applied to the study of Leptonic Physics. This tool is based on the construction of Weak Basis invariant relations associated to different properties of leptonic models. The rationale behind these constructions is the fact that fermion mass matrices related through weak basis transformations look different but lead to the same physics. Such invariants can be built, for instance, with the aim to test leptonic models for different types of CP violation. These invariants are also relevant beyond such tests and have been applied to the study of implications from zero textures appearing in the leptonic mass matrices. In this case an important question is, how can a flavour model corresponding to a set of texture zeros be recognised, when written in a different weak basis, where the zeros are not explicitly present. Another important application is the construction of invariants sensitive to the neutrino mass ordering and the $\theta_{23}$ octant., Comment: 7 pages, no figures.

Abstract: The production of a Standard Model Higgs boson in association with two hard jets in the forward and backward regions of the detector, frequently quoted as the “vector-boson fusion” (VBF) channel, and the production of a Higgs boson in association with a W or Z boson, known as “VH production” or “Higgsstrahlung”, represent cornerstones in a comprehensive study of Higgs boson couplings at the LHC. These production channels do not only provide valuable information on the couplings of Higgs bosons to the massive gauge bosons by themselves, but also allow for the isolation of the Higgs boson decays into -lepton or bottom-quark pairs, whose investigation is essential in the Higgs boson couplings analysis. In the previous reports [7–9], state-of-the-art predictions and error estimates for the total and differential cross sections for pp ! H + 2 jets and pp ! HV ! H + 2 leptons were compiled (with V = W; Z), but the process of improving and refining predictions is still ongoing, even within the Standard Model. In this contribution we update the cross-section predictions for VBF and VH production, covering integrated total and fiducial cross sections as well as differential distributions. In detail, the presented state-of-the-art predictions include QCD corrections up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO), electroweak (EW) corrections up to next-to-leading order (NLO), and contributions from specific partonic channels that open at higher perturbative orders, such as photon-induced collisions or gluon-fusion contributions. Apart from collecting numerical results, we give recommendations as to how to combine the individual components and to assess conservative estimates of remaining theoretical uncertainties. Moreover, issues connected to the matching and the impact of parton showers (PS) are discussed.

38. Can One have Significant Deviations from Leptonic $3\times 3$ Unitarity in the Framework of Type I Seesaw Mechanism?

Author: Agostinho, Nuno Rosa, Branco, G. C., Pereira, Pedro M. F., Rebelo, M. N., Silva-Marcos, J. I., Agostinho, Nuno Rosa, Branco, G. C., Pereira, Pedro M. F., Rebelo, M. N., and Silva-Marcos, J. I.
Abstract: We address the question of deviations from $3\times 3$ unitarity of the leptonic mixing matrix showing that, contrary to conventional wisdom, one may have significant deviations from unitarity in the framework of type I seesaw mechanism. In order for this scenario to be feasible, at least one of the heavy neutrinos must have a mass at the TeV scale, while the other two may have much larger masses. We present specific examples where deviations from $3\times 3$ unitarity are sufficiently small to conform to all the present stringent experimental bounds but are sufficiently large to have the potential for being detectable at the next round of experiments., Comment: 17 pages, 4 figures, 3 tables

39. Leptonic Invariants, Neutrino Mass-Ordering and the Octant of $\theta_{23}$

Author: Branco, G. C., Rebelo, M. N., Silva-Marcos, J. I., Branco, G. C., Rebelo, M. N., and Silva-Marcos, J. I.
Abstract: We point out that leptonic weak-basis invariants are an important tool for the study of the properties of lepton flavour models. In particular, we show that appropriately chosen invariants can give a clear indication of whether a particular lepton flavour model favours normal or inverted hierarchy for neutrino masses and what is the octant of $\theta_{23}$. These invariants can be evaluated in any conveniently chosen weak-basis and can also be expressed in terms of neutrino masses, charged lepton masses, mixing angles and CP violation phases., Comment: 10 pages, no figures

40. The discrete charm of flavour and CP violation

Author: Branco, G. C., Rebelo, M. N., Branco, G. C., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: We point out that in the Standard Model (SM) there is no explanation why $|V_{23}|^2 + |V_{13}|^2$ is of order $10^{-3}$. A framework is described for explaining this small mixing, involving the introduction of vector-like quarks. A symmetry is introduced so that at a first stage $V_{CKM} = 1\>\!\!\!\mathrm{I}$ and only the third generation of quarks acquires a mass. It is shown that when interactions of vector-like quarks are taken into account a realistic quark mass spectrum is generated together with a correct $V_{CKM}$ matrix., Comment: 10 pages, no figures.

41. Spontaneous symmetry breaking in three-Higgs-doublet $S_3$-symmetric models

Author: Emmanuel-Costa, D., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Emmanuel-Costa, D., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: The talk summarises work done by the authors consisting of a detailed study of the possible vacua in models with three Higgs doublets with $S_3$ symmetry and without explicit CP violation. Different vacua require special regions of the parameter space which were analysed in our work. We establish the possibility of spontaneous CP violation in this framework and we also show which complex vacua conserve CP. In our work we discussed constraints from vacuum stability. The results presented here are relevant for model building., Comment: 11 pages, no figures.

42. A Simple Method to detect spontaneous CP Violation in multi-Higgs models

Author: Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: For models with several Higgs doublets we present an alternative method to the one proposed by Branco, Gerard and Grimus, in 1984, to check whether or not CP is spontaneously violated in the Higgs potential. The previous method is powerful and rigorous. It requires the identification of a matrix $U$ corresponding to a symmetry of the Lagrangian and verifying a simple relation involving the vacuum expectation values. The nonexistence of such a matrix signals spontaneous CP violation. However, as the number of Higgs doublets increases, finding such a matrix $U$ may not be straightforward and it may turn out to be easier to analyse the potential by going to the so-called Higgs basis. The transformation to the Higgs basis is straightforward once the vacuum expectation values are known. The method proposed in this work is also powerful and rigorous and can be particularly useful to analyse models with more than two Higgs doublets and with continuous symmetries., Comment: 9 pages, no figures. v2: minor changes, matching JHEP version

Abstract: This Report summarizes the results of the activities of the LHC Higgs Cross Section Working Group in the period 2014-2016. The main goal of the working group was to present the state-of-the-art of Higgs physics at the LHC, integrating all new results that have appeared in the last few years. The first part compiles the most up-to-date predictions of Higgs boson production cross sections and decay branching ratios, parton distribution functions, and off-shell Higgs boson production and interference effects. The second part discusses the recent progress in Higgs effective field theory predictions, followed by the third part on pseudo-observables, simplified template cross section and fiducial cross section measurements, which give the baseline framework for Higgs boson property measurements. The fourth part deals with the beyond the Standard Model predictions of various benchmark scenarios of Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, extended scalar sector, Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model and exotic Higgs boson decays. This report follows three previous working-group reports: Handbook of LHC Higgs Cross Sections: 1. Inclusive Observables (CERN-2011-002), Handbook of LHC Higgs Cross Sections: 2. Differential Distributions (CERN-2012-002), and Handbook of LHC Higgs Cross Sections: 3. Higgs properties (CERN-2013-004). The current report serves as the baseline reference for Higgs physics in LHC Run 2 and beyond., Comment: 869 pages, 295 figures, 248 tables and 1645 citations.

44. Vector-like Quarks at the Origin of Light Quark Masses and Mixing

Author: Botella, Francisco J., Branco, G. C., Nebot, Miguel, Rebelo, M. N., Silva-Marcos, J. I., Botella, Francisco J., Branco, G. C., Nebot, Miguel, Rebelo, M. N., and Silva-Marcos, J. I.
Abstract: We show how a novel fine-tuning problem present in the Standard Model can be solved through the introduction of a single flavour symmetry G, together with three $Q = - 1/3$ quarks, three $Q = 2/3$ quarks, as well as a complex singlet scalar. The symmetry G is extended to the additional fields and it is an exact symmetry of the Lagrangian, only spontaneously broken by the vacuum. Specific examples are given and a phenomenological analysis of the main features of the model is presented. It is shown that even for vector-like quarks with masses accessible at the LHC, one can have realistic quark masses and mixing, while respecting the strict constraints on process arising from flavour changing neutral currents (FCNC). The vector-like quark decay channels are also described., Comment: 25 pages, no figures

Author: Emmanuel-Costa, D., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Emmanuel-Costa, D., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: Models with an extended scalar sector may in principle provide new sources of CP violation originating in the scalar potential. One of the simplest ways to implement this idea is to have CP violation in a two-Higgs-doublet model. Here, it leads to CP violation in trilinear weak gauge boson couplings. We discuss how these couplings are becoming constrained in the alignment limit. In a model with three Higgs doublets, subject to an $S_3$ symmetry, several complex vacua are possible. Some of these, but not all, may lead to spontaneous CP violation., Comment: 8 pages, Proceedings of the Corfu Summer Institute 2015 "Summer School and Workshop on the Standard Model and Beyond", 1-11 September 2015 Corfu, Greece

46. On quasidegeneracy of Majorana neutrinos and the observed pattern of Leptonic mixing

Author: Rebelo, M. N. and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: We relate the observed pattern of leptonic mixing to the quaidegeneracy of three Majorana neutrinos. We show how lifting the degeneracy may lead to the measured value of $|U_{13}|$ and to sizeable CP violation of Dirac-type. We show some of the correlations obtained among physical observables, starting from some of the most interesting schemes proposed in the literature., Comment: Contribution to the 17th Lomonosov Conference. 7 pages.

47. What if the Masses of the First Two Quark Families are not Generated by the Standard Higgs?

Author: Botella, F. J., Branco, G. C., Rebelo, M. N., Silva-Marcos, J. I., Botella, F. J., Branco, G. C., Rebelo, M. N., and Silva-Marcos, J. I.
Abstract: We point out that, in the context of the SM, $|V^2_{13}| + | V^2_{23}|$ is expected to be large, of order one. The fact that $|V^2_{13}| + |V^2_{23}| \approx 1.6 \times 10^{-3}$ motivates the introduction of a symmetry S which leads to $V_{CKM} ={1\>\!\!\!\mathrm{I}} $, with only the third generation of quarks acquiring mass. We consider two scenarios for generating the mass of the first two quark generations and full quark mixing. One consists of the introduction of a second Higgs doublet which is neutral under S. The second scenario consists of assuming New Physics at a high energy scale , contributing to the masses of light quark generations, in an effective field theory approach. This last scenario leads to couplings of the Higgs particle to $s\overline s$ and $c \overline c$ which are significantly enhanced with respect to those of the SM. In both schemes, one has scalar-mediated flavour- changing neutral currents which are naturally suppressed. Flavour violating top decays are predicted in the second scenario at the level $ \mbox{Br} (t \rightarrow h c ) \geq 5\times 10^{-5}$., Comment: 11 pages, 1 figure

48. Spontaneous symmetry breaking in the $S_3$-symmetric scalar sector

Author: Emmanuel-Costa, D., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., Rebelo, M. N., Emmanuel-Costa, D., Ogreid, O. M., Osland, P., and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: We present a detailed study of the vacua of the $S_3$-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet potential, specifying the region of parameters where these minimisation solutions occur. We work with a CP conserving scalar potential and analyse the possible real and complex vacua with emphasis on the cases in which the CP symmetry can be spontaneously broken. Results are presented both in the reducible-representation framework of Derman, and in the irreducible-representation framework. Mappings between these are given. Some of these implementations can in principle accommodate dark matter and for that purpose it is important to identify the residual symmetries of the potential after spontaneous symmetry breakdown. We are also concerned with constraints from vacuum stability., Comment: 37 pages. v2: Minor changes in the references, matches published version. v3: Table 6 corrected: two additional cases conserve CP.

49. Natural Quasi-Alignment with two Higgs Doublets and RGE Stability

Author: Botella, F. J., Branco, G. C., Coutinho, António M., Rebelo, M. N., Silva-Marcos, J. I., Botella, F. J., Branco, G. C., Coutinho, António M., Rebelo, M. N., and Silva-Marcos, J. I.
Abstract: In the context of two Higgs doublet models, we study the conditions required in order to have stable quasi-alignment in flavour space. We show that stability under the RGE imposes strong constraints on the flavour structure of the Yukawa couplings associated to each one of the Higgs doublets. In particular, we find a novel solution, where all Yukawa couplings are proportional to the so-called democratic matrix. This solution is rather unique, since it is the only stable solution which is a good starting point for reproducing the observed pattern of quark masses and mixing. We also show that this stable solution can be obtained by imposing on the Lagrangian a $Z_3 \times Z^\prime_3$ flavour symmetry. Quark masses of the lighter quark generations are generated through the breaking of this discrete symmetry, and, at this stage, scalar mediated FCNC arise, but are naturally suppressed by the smallness of light quark masses. In this way, we relate Higgs alignment to the hierarchy of quark masses through a discrete family symmetry., Comment: 16 pages, 3 figures

50. Implication of Higgs mediated Flavour Changing Neutral Currents with Minimal Flavour Violation

Author: Rebelo, M. N. and Rebelo, M. N.
Abstract: We analise phenomenological implications of two Higgs doublet models with Higgs flavour changing neutral currents suppressed in the quark sector by small entries of the Cabibbo-Kokayashi-Maskawa matrix. This suppression occurs in a natural way since it is the result of a symmetry applied to the Lagrangian. These type of models were proposed some time ago by Branco Grimus and Lavoura. Our results clearly show that these class of models allow for new physical scalars, with masses which are reachable at the LHC. The imposed symmetry severely reduces the number of free parameters and allows for predictions. Therefore these models can eventually be proved right or eliminated experimentally., Comment: Contribution to 4th Symposium on Prospects in the Physics of Discrete Symmetries (DISCRETE 2014) 02-06 Dec 2014.
