EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Nucleon axial and pseudoscalar form factors using twisted-mass fermion ensembles at the physical point

Constantia Alexandrou, Simone Bacchio, Martha Constantinou, Jacob Finkenrath, Roberto Frezzotti, Bartosz Kostrzewa, Giannis Koutsou, Gregoris Spanoudes, and Carsten Urbach (Extended Twisted Mass Collaboration)

Phys. Rev. D 109, 034503 (2024) - Published 5 February, 2024

The authors compute the axial and pseudoscalar nucleon form factors for 2+1+1 flavors, light, strange, and charm, with physical quark masses in lattice QCD with a controlled continuum extrapolation. The results are compared with other lattice determinations, finding good agreement, and with experimental extractions, showing some tensions.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

LETTER

Bell inequality is violated in $B^{0} \to J / ψ K^{*} (892)^{0}$ decays

M. Fabbrichesi, R. Floreanini, E. Gabrielli, and L. Marzola

Phys. Rev. D 109, L031104 (2024) - Published 23 February, 2024

The authors use data from the LHCb collaboration for the helicity amplitudes in the $B^{0}$ –> $J / ψ K^{*} (892)^{0}$ decays to compute the entanglement among the polarizations of the final vector mesons. They show explicitly that the Bell inequality is violated, in accord with the general principles of quantum mechanics.
