Investigating the $Z_3$ symmetry in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) we show that full QCD with a vacuum of vanishing baryonic number does not lead to metastable phases. Rather in QCD with dynamical fermions, the degeneracy of $Z_3$ phases manifests itself in observables without open triality.

In order to prepare the ground for evaluating classes of three-loop sum-integrals that are presently needed for thermodynamic observables, we take a fresh and systematic look on the few known cases, and review their evaluation in a unified way using
coherent notation. We do this for three important cases of massless bosonic three-loop vacuum sum-integrals that have been frequently used in the literature, and aim for a streamlined exposition as compared to the original evaluations. In passing, we speculate on options for generalization of the computational techniques that have been employed.
The apparent unification of gauge couplings around 10^16 GeV is one of the strong arguments in favor of Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model (SM). In this contribution a new analysis, using the latest experimental data, is performed. The s
trong coupling alpha_s emerges as the key factor for evaluating the results of the fits, as the experimental and theoretical uncertainties in its measurements are substantially higher than for the electromagnetic and weak couplings. The present analysis pays special attention to numerical and statistical details. The results, combined with the current limits on the supersymmetric particle masses, favor a value for the SUSY scale <~ 150 GeV and for alpha_s = 0.118-0.119.
An alternative approach to the calculation of tunneling actions, that control the exponential suppression of the decay of metastable phases, is presented. The new method circumvents the use of bounces in Euclidean space by introducing an auxiliary fu
nction, a tunneling potential $V_t$ that connects smoothly the metastable and stable phases of the field potential $V$. The tunneling action is obtained as the integral in field space of an action density that is a simple function of $V_t$ and $V$. This compact expression can be considered as a generalization of the thin-wall action to arbitrary potentials and allows a fast numerical evaluation with a precision below the percent level for typical potentials. The method can also be used to generate potentials with analytic tunneling solutions.
A significant number of high power proton beams are available or will go online in the near future. This provides exciting opportunities for new fixed target experiments and the search for new physics in particular. In this note we will survey these
beams and consider their potential to discover new physics in the form of axion-like particles, identifying promising locations and set ups. To achieve this, we present a significantly improved calculation of the production of axion-like particles in the coherent scattering of protons on nuclei, valid for lower ALP masses and/or beam energies. We also provide a new publicly available tool for this process: the Alpaca Monte Carlo generator. This will impact ongoing and planned searches based on this process.
We discuss the hot hand paradox within the framework of the backward Kolmogorov equation. We use this approach to understand the apparently paradoxical features of the statistics of fixed-length sequences of heads and tails upon repeated fair coin fl
ips. In particular, we compute the average waiting time for the appearance of specific sequences. For sequences of length 2, the average time until the appearance of the sequence HH (heads-heads) equals 6, while the waiting time for the sequence HT (heads-tails) equals 4. These results require a few simple calculational steps by the Kolmogorov approach. We also give complete results for sequences of lengths 3, 4, and 5; the extension to longer sequences is straightforward (albeit more tedious). Finally, we compute the waiting times $T_{nrm H}$ for an arbitrary length sequences of all heads and $T_{nrm(HT)}$ for the sequence of alternating heads and tails. For large $n$, $T_{2nrm H}sim 3 T_{nrm(HT)}$.
