Non-universal Z' from SO(10) GUTs with vector-like family and the origin of neutrino masses

Stefan Antusch, Christian Hohl, Steve F. King +1

A gauge boson with mass around the (few) TeV scale is a popular example of physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) and can be a fascinating remnant of a Grand Unified Theory (G…

Reduction of the Parameters in MSSM

S. Heinemeyer, M. Mondragon, N. Tracas +1

In the present work we search for renormalization group invariant relations among the various massless and massive parameters of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We find…

Inferring type and scale of noncommutativity from the PTOLEMY experiment

Raul Horvat, Josip Trampetic, Jiangyang You

If neutrinos are Dirac particles and their right-handed component can be copiously produced in the early universe, then they could influence a direct observation of the cosmic neut…

Parton Shower and NLO-Matching uncertainties in Higgs Boson Pair Production

Stephen Jones, Silvan Kuttimalai

We perform a detailed study of NLO parton shower matching uncertainties in Higgs boson pair production through gluon fusion at the LHC based on a generic and process independent im…

Classicality and Quantum Break-Time for Cosmic Axions

Gia Dvali, Sebastian Zell

We investigate the length of the period of validity of a classical description for the cosmic axion field. To this end, we first show that we can understand the oscillating axion s…

NNLO predictions for Z-boson pair production at the LHC

G. Heinrich, S. Jahn, S. P. Jones +2

We present a calculation of the NNLO QCD corrections to Z-boson pair production at hadron colliders, based on the N-jettiness method for the real radiation parts. We discuss the si…

Probing Leptogenesis at Future Colliders

Stefan Antusch, Eros Cazzato, Marco Drewes +4

We investigate the question whether leptogenesis, as a mechanism for explaining the baryon asymmetry of the universe, can be tested at future colliders. Focusing on the minimal sce…

Solar neutrinos at keV energies: thermal flux

Edoardo Vitagliano, Javier Redondo, Georg Raffelt

The neutrino flux at Earth is dominated in the keV energy range by the neutrinos produced in the Sun through thermal processes, namely photo production, bremsstrahlung, plasmon dec…

NLO and off-shell effects in top quark mass determinations

G. Heinrich, A. Maier, R. Nisius +4

We study the impact of different theoretical descriptions of top quark pair production on top quark mass measurements in the di-lepton channel. To this aim, the full NLO correction…

Resolvable heavy neutrino-antineutrino oscillations at colliders

Stefan Antusch, Eros Cazzato, Oliver Fischer

Heavy neutrino-antineutrino oscillations can naturally appear in mechanisms of low scale neutrino mass generation, where pairs of heavy neutrinos have almost degenerate masses. We…

Stellar Recipes for Axion Hunters

Maurizio Giannotti, Igor G. Irastorza, Javier Redondo +2

There are a number of observational hints from astrophysics which point to the existence of stellar energy losses beyond the ones accounted for by neutrino emission. These excessiv…

Sharp spectral features from light dark matter decay via gravity portals

Oscar Catà, Alejandro Ibarra, Sebastian Ingenhütt

We investigate the phenomenology of dark matter decay assuming that it is induced by non-minimal coupling to gravity, when the dark matter mass is in the sub-GeV range, i.e. below…
