Lensing of fast radio bursts: future constraints on primordial black hole density with an extended mass function and a new probe of exotic compact fermion and boson stars

Ranjan Laha

The discovery of gravitational waves from binary black hole mergers has renewed interest in primordial black holes forming a part of the dark matter density of our Universe. Variou…

Consistent Searches for SMEFT Effects in Non-Resonant Dilepton Events

Stefan Alte, Matthias König, William Shepherd

Employing the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory, we perform a detailed reinterpretation of measurements of the Weinberg angle in dilepton production as a searc…

Audible Axions

Camila S. Machado, Wolfram Ratzinger, Pedro Schwaller +1

Conventional approaches to probing axions and axion-like particles (ALPs) typically rely on a coupling to photons. However, if this coupling is extremely weak, ALPs become invisibl…

Dark, Cold, and Noisy: Constraining Secluded Hidden Sectors with Gravitational Waves

Moritz Breitbach, Joachim Kopp, Eric Madge +2

We explore gravitational wave signals arising from first-order phase transitions occurring in a secluded hidden sector, allowing for the possibility that the hidden sector may have…

Variations on the Vev Flip-Flop: Instantaneous Freeze-out and Decaying Dark Matter

Michael J. Baker, Lukas Mittnacht

In this work we consider a simple model for dark matter and identify regions of parameter space where the relic abundance is set via kinematic thresholds, which open and close due…

Vanishing of Quantum Gravitational Corrections to Vacuum Solutions of General Relativity at Second Order in Curvature

Xavier Calmet

In this note we prove that quantum gravitational corrections to vacuum solutions of Einstein's equations vanish at second order in curvature.
