We improve the estimate of the axion CDM energy density by considering the new values of current quark masses, the QCD phase transition effect and a possible anharmonic effect.

We update our estimates of charged and neutral current neutrino total cross sections on isoscalar nucleons at ultrahigh energies using a global (x, Q^2) fit, motivated by the Froissart bound, to the F_2 (electron-proton) structure function utilizing
the most recent analysis of the complete ZEUS and H1 data sets from HERA I. Using the large Q^2, small Bjorken-x limits of the wee parton model, we connect the ultrahigh energy neutrino cross sections directly to the large Q^2, small-x extrapolation of our new fit, which we assume saturates the Froissart bound. We compare both to our previous work, which utilized only the smaller ZEUS data set, as well as to recent results of a calculation using the ZEUS-S based global perturbative QCD parton distributions using the combined HERA I results as input. Our new results substantiate our previous conclusions, again predicting significantly smaller cross sections than those predicted by extrapolating pQCD calculations to neutrino energies above 10^9 GeV.
Taking the recently reported non-zero rotation angle of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) linear polarization $beta=0.35pm0.14{rm, deg}$ as the hint for a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson quintessence dark energy (DE), we study the electroweak (EW) a
xion quintessence DE model where the axion mass is generated by the EW instantons. We find that the observed value of $beta$ implies a non-trivial $U(1)$ electromagnetic anomaly coefficient ($c_{gamma}$), once the current constraint on the DE equation of state is also taken into account. With the aid of the hypothetical high energy structure of the model inspired by the experimentally inferred $c_{gamma}$, the model is shown to be able to make prediction for the current equation of state ($w_{rm DE,0}$) of the quintessence DE. This is expected to make our scenario distinguishable in comparison with the cosmological constant ($w=-1$) and testable in future when the error in the future measurement of $w_{rm DE,0}$ is reduced to $mathcal{O}(1)%$ level ($delta w=mathcal{O}(10^{-2})$).
We briefly review some recent Cold Dark Matter (CDM) models. Our main focus are charge symmetric models of WIMPs which are not the standard SUSY LSPs (Lightest Supersymmetric Partners). We indicate which experiments are most sensitive to certain aspe
cts of the models. In particular we discuss the manifestations of the new models in neutrino telescopes and other set-ups. We also discuss some direct detection experiments and comment on measuring the direction of recoil ions--which is correlated with the direction of the incoming WIMP. This could yield daily variations providing along with the annual modulation signatures for CDM.
Taking into account recent theoretical and experimental inputs on reactor fluxes we reconsider the determination of the weak mixing angle from low energy experiments. We perform a global analysis to all available neutrino-electron scattering data fro
m reactor antineutrino experiments, obtaining sin^2(theta_W) = 0.252 pm 0.030. We discuss the impact of the new theoretical prediction for the neutrino spectrum, the new measurement of the reactor antineutrino spectrum by the Daya Bay collaboration, as well as the effect of radiative corrections. We also reanalyze the measurements of the nu_e-e cross section at accelerator experiments including radiative corrections. By combining reactor and accelerator data we obtain an improved determination for the weak mixing angle, sin^2(theta_W) = 0.254 pm 0.024.
We present the status of the Unitarity Triangle Analysis (UTA), within the Standard Model (SM) and beyond, with experimental and theoretical inputs updated for the ICHEP 2010 conference. Within the SM, we find that the general consistency among all t
he constraints leaves space only to some tension (between the UTA prediction and the experimental measurement) in BR(B -> tau nu), sin(2 beta) and epsilon_K. In the UTA beyond the SM, we allow for New Physics (NP) effects in (Delta F)=2 processes. The hint of NP at the 2.9 sigma level in the B_s-bar B_s mixing turns out to be confirmed by the present update, which includes the new D0 result on the dimuon charge asymmetry but not the new CDF measurement of phi_s, being the likelihood not yet released.
