Discrepancies in measurements of the QCD running coupling constant are consistent with a new vector gauge boson coupling to baryon number with strength aB~0.1. Upsilon decays constrain such a boson to have a mass greater than about 35 GeV. It is difficult to observe such a boson in Z decays, e+e- annihilation, or hadronic interactions.

Quark-universal $U(1)$ breaking scalar at the LHC
hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

In a quark-universal U(1)_B model, the scalar φ that breaks the symmetry can be discovered first through its diphoton decay, and its rate can explain the 95 GeV diphoton excess.
