Using Dark Matter Haloes to Learn about Cosmic Acceleration: A New Proposal for a Universal Mass Function
C. Prescod-Weinstein, N. Afshordi
Structure formation provides a strong test of any cosmic acceleration model because a successful dark energy model must not inhibit {\black or overpredict} the development of obser…
An Extension of the Faddeev-Jackiw Technique to Fields in Curved Spacetimes
C. Prescod-Weinstein, Edmund Bertschinger
The Legendre transformation on singular Lagrangians, e.g. Lagrangians representing gauge theories, fails due to the presence of constraints. The Faddeev-Jackiw technique, which off…
Do Dark Matter Axions Form a Condensate with Long-Range Correlation?
Alan H. Guth, Mark P. Hertzberg, C. Prescod-Weinstein
Recently there has been significant interest in the claim that dark matter axions gravitationally thermalize and form a Bose-Einstein condensate with cosmologically long-range corr…
Neutrinos, Cosmic Rays and the MeV Band
R. Ojha, H. Zhang, M. Kadler +23
The possible association of the blazar TXS 0506+056 with a high-energy neutrino detected by IceCube holds the tantalizing potential to answer three astrophysical questions: 1. Wher…
