abstract
In this paper we consider the effects on big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) of the hadronic decay of a long-lived massive particle. If high-energy hadrons are emitted near the BBN epoch ($t \sim 10^{-2}$ -- $10^2 \sec$), they extraordinarily inter-convert the background nucleons each other even after the freeze-out time of the neutron to proton ratio. Then, produced light element abundances are changed, and that may result in a significant discrepancy between standard BBN and observations. Especially on the theoretical side, now we can obtain a lot of experimental data of hadrons and simulate the hadronic decay process executing the numerical code of the hadron fragmentation even in the high energy region where we have no experimental data. Using the light element abundances computed in the hadron-injection scenario, we derive a constraint on properties of such a particle by comparing our theoretical results with observations.

Consistent $N_{\rm eff}$ fitting in big bang nucleosynthesis analysis
Conventional BBN fitting for negative Delta N_eff is unphysical; a consistent treatment via entropy dilution after neutrino decoupling yields significantly different bounds.

MeV-scale reheating temperature and thermalization of oscillating neutrinos by radiative and hadronic decays of massive particles
Including neutrino oscillations and self-interactions in BBN calculations sets the reheating temperature above about 1.8 MeV for radiative decays and 4 to 5 MeV for hadronic decays of long-lived massive particles.

Properties of compact objects in quadratic non-metricity gravity
Quadratic non-metricity gravity with a fitted coupling ξ can match PSR J0740+6620 while keeping the radial sound speed below c²/3, according to the paper's chosen metric ansatz.
