Vector Mesons and an Interpretation of Seiberg Duality
Zohar Komargodski
We interpret the dynamics of Supersymmetric QCD (SQCD) in terms of ideas familiar from the hadronic world. Some mysterious properties of the supersymmetric theory, such as the emer…
Cores in Dwarf Galaxies from Dark Matter with a Yukawa Potential
Abraham Loeb, Neal Weiner
We show that cold dark matter particles interacting through a Yukawa potential could naturally explain the recently observed cores in dwarf galaxies without affecting the dynamics…
Muonic hydrogen and MeV forces
David Tucker-Smith, Itay Yavin
We explore the possibility that a new interaction between muons and protons is responsible for the discrepancy between the CODATA value of the proton radius and the value deduced f…
Comments on scaling limits of 4d N=2 theories
Davide Gaiotto, Nathan Seiberg, Yuji Tachikawa
We revisit the study of the maximally singular point in the Coulomb branch of 4d N=2 SU(N) gauge theory with N_f=2n flavors for N_f<2N. When n >= 2, we find that the low-energy phy…
Interpreting Dark Matter Direct Detection Independently of the Local Velocity and Density Distribution
Patrick J. Fox, Graham D. Kribs, Tim M. P. Tait
We demonstrate precisely what particle physics information can be extracted from a single direct detection observation of dark matter while making absolutely no assumptions about t…
Axions in the Landscape and String Theory
Michael Dine, Guido Festuccia, John Kehayias +1
While axions seem ubiquitous in critical string theories, whether they might survive in any string theoretic description of nature is a difficult question. With some mild assumptio…
