Heavy Neutral Leptons -- Advancing into the PeV domain

Kevin A. Urquía-Calderón, Inar Timiryasov, Oleg Ruchayskiy

Heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) are hypothetical particles able to explain neutrino oscillations and provide a mechanism for generating the baryon asymmetry of the Universe. Quantum c…

Einstein-Cartan Portal to Dark Matter

Mikhail Shaposhnikov, Andrey Shkerin, Inar Timiryasov +1

It is well-known since the works of Utiyama and Kibble that the gravitational force can be obtained by gauging the Poincaré group, which puts gravity on the same footing as the St…

To Positivity and Beyond, where Higgs-Dilaton Inflation has never gone before

Mario Herrero-Valea, Inar Timiryasov, Anna Tokareva

We study the consequences of (beyond) positivity of scattering amplitudes in the effective field theory description of the Higgs-Dilaton inflationary model. By requiring the EFT to…

Reconciling resonant leptogenesis and baryogenesis via neutrino oscillations

Juraj Klarić, Mikhail Shaposhnikov, Inar Timiryasov

Right-handed neutrinos offer an elegant solution to two well established phenomena beyond the Standard Model (SM) - masses and oscillations of neutrinos, as well as the baryon asym…

Uniting low-scale leptogeneses

Juraj Klarić, Mikhail Shaposhnikov, Inar Timiryasov

In this work we demonstrate that what was previously considered as different mechanisms of baryon asymmetry generation involving two right-handed Majorana neutrinos with masses far…

Einstein-Cartan gravity, matter, and scale-invariant generalization

Mikhail Shaposhnikov, Andrey Shkerin, Inar Timiryasov +1

We study gravity coupled to scalar and fermion fields in the Einstein-Cartan framework. We discuss the most general form of the action that contains terms of mass dimension not big…

Testing MSM with indirect searches

Dmitry Gorbunov, Inar Timiryasov

We consider neutrino Minimal extension of the Standard Model (MSM), which by introducing only three sterile neutrinos in sub electroweak region can explain active neutrino osci…

Learning to detect continuous gravitational waves: an open data-analysis competition

Rodrigo Tenorio, Michael J. Williams, Joseph Bayley +29

We report results of a public data-analysis challenge, hosted on the open data-science platform Kaggle, to detect simulated continuous gravitational-wave signals (CWs). These are w…

Preheating in Palatini Higgs inflation on the lattice

Frédéric Dux, Adrien Florio, Juraj Klarić +2

We study preheating following Higgs inflation in the Palatini formulation of gravity. We numerically evolve perturbations of the radial mode of the Higgs field and that of three sc…

The Present and Future Status of Heavy Neutral Leptons

Asli M. Abdullahi, Pablo Barham Alzas, Brian Batell +42

The existence of non-zero neutrino masses points to the likely existence of multiple SM neutral fermions. When such states are heavy enough that they cannot be produced in oscillat…

Higgs inflation in Einstein-Cartan gravity

Mikhail Shaposhnikov, Andrey Shkerin, Inar Timiryasov +1

We study inflation driven by the Higgs field in the Einstein-Cartan formulation of gravity. In this theory, the presence of the Holst and Nieh-Yan terms with the Higgs field non-mi…

Projected NA62 sensitivity to heavy neutral lepton production in decays

Jean-Loup Tastet, Evgueni Goudzovski, Inar Timiryasov +1

Heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) appear in many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics. In this study, we investigate to which extent the NA62 experiment at CERN could im…

Tree-level unitarity constraints on heavy neutral leptons

Kevin A. Urquía-Calderón, Inar Timiryasov, Oleg Ruchayskiy

Heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) can explain the origin of neutrino masses and oscillations over a wide range of masses. Direct experimental probes of HNLs become unfeasible for masses…
