On light dilaton extensions of the Standard Model
Eugenio Megias, Oriol Pujolas, Mariano Quiros
We discuss the presence of a light dilaton in Conformal Field Theories deformed by a single scalar operator, in the holographic realization consisting of confining Renormalization…
The time-dependent Aharonov-Casher effect
Douglas Singleton, Jaryd Ulbricht
In this paper we give a covariant expression for Aharonov-Casher phase. This expression is a combination of the canonical electric field, Aharonov-Casher phase plus a magnetic fiel…
Physical properties of star clusters in the outer LMC as observed by the Dark Energy Survey
A. Pieres, B. Santiago, E. Balbinot +57
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) harbors a rich and diverse system of star clusters, whose ages, chemical abundances, and positions provide information about the LMC history of sta…
On the Pure Spinor Heterotic Superstring Ghost
Thiago Fleury
A simplified pure spinor superstring ghost in a curved heterotic background was constructed recently. The ghost is a composite operator and it is not holomorphic. However,…
Scattering Light by Light at 750 GeV at the LHC
Sylvain Fichet, Gero von Gersdorff, Christophe Royon
We consider the possibility that the diphoton excess at 750 GeV is caused by a new scalar resonance produced in photon fusion. This scenario is parametrised by only one relevant ef…
Sequestered gravity in gauge mediation
Ignatios Antoniadis, Karim Benakli, Mariano Quiros
We present a novel mechanism of supersymmetry breaking embeddable in string theory and simultaneously sharing the main advantages of (sequestered) gravity and gauge mediation. It i…
Primordial Black Holes Formation from Particle Production during Inflation
Encieh Erfani
We study the possibility that particle production during inflation can source the required power spectrum for dark matter (DM) primordial black holes (PBH) formation. We consider t…
The tail effect in gravitational radiation-reaction: time non-locality and renormalization group evolution
Chad R. Galley, Adam K. Leibovich, Rafael A. Porto +1
We use the effective field theory (EFT) framework to calculate the tail effect in gravitational radiation reaction, which enters at 4PN order in the dynamics of a binary system. Th…
Elimination and recursions in the scattering equations
Carlos Cardona, Chrysostomos Kalousios
We use the elimination theory to explicitly construct the (n-3)! order polynomial in one of the variables of the scattering equations. The answer can be given either in terms of a…
All-sky search for long-duration gravitational wave transients with LIGO
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +934
We present the results of a search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in two sets of data collected by the LIGO Hanford and LIGO Livingston detectors between November…
A search of the Orion spur for continuous gravitational waves using a "loosely coherent" algorithm on data from LIGO interferometers
J. Aasi, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +920
We report results of a wideband search for periodic gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars within the Orion spur towards both the inner and outer regions of our Galaxy. As…
SIMP Dark Matter
Nicolas Bernal, Xiaoyong Chu
Dark matter with strong self-interactions provides a compelling solution to several small-scale structure puzzles. Under the assumption that the coupling between dark matter and th…
Production Regimes for Self-Interacting Dark Matter
Nicolas Bernal, Xiaoyong Chu, Camilo Garcia-Cely +2
In the context of Self-Interacting Dark Matter as a solution for the small-scale structure problems, we consider the possibility that Dark Matter could have been produced without b…
Search for dark matter produced in association with a Higgs boson decaying to two bottom quarks in collisions at TeV with the ATLAS detector
ATLAS Collaboration
This article reports on a search for dark matter pair production in association with a Higgs boson decaying to a pair of bottom quarks, using data from of colli…
First low frequency all-sky search for continuous gravitational wave signals
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +921
In this paper we present the results of the first low frequency all-sky search of continuous gravitational wave signals conducted on Virgo VSR2 and VSR4 data. The search covered th…
Vector boson scattering at the LHC. A study of the WW -> WW channels with the Warsaw cut
Marco Fabbrichesi, Michele Pinamonti, Alberto Tonero +1
We study W boson scattering in the same- and opposite-sign channels under the assumption that no resonances are present in the collider processes $pp\rightarrow l^{\pm}ν_{l}l^{\pm}…
Aharonov-Bohm phase for an electromagnetic wave background
Max Bright, Douglas Singleton, Atsushi Yoshida
The canonical Aharonov-Bohm effect is usually studied with time-independent potentials. In this work, we investigate the Aharonov-Bohm phase acquired by a charged particle moving i…
Comments on the evaluation of massless scattering
Carlos Cardona, Chrysostomos Kalousios
The goal of this work is threefold. First, we give an expression of the most general five point integral on M_{0,n} in terms of Chebyshev polynomials. Second, we choose a special k…
Anatomy of the Higgs fits: a first guide to statistical treatments of the theoretical uncertainties
Sylvain Fichet, Grégory Moreau
The studies of the Higgs boson couplings based on the recent and upcoming LHC data open up a new window on physics beyond the Standard Model. In this paper, we propose a statistica…
Recursion Relations for Conformal Blocks
João Penedones, Emilio Trevisani, Masahito Yamazaki
In the context of conformal field theories in general space-time dimension, we find all the possible singularities of the conformal blocks as functions of the scaling dimension …
Effective theory for neutral resonances and a statistical dissection of the ATLAS diboson excess
Sylvain Fichet, Gero von Gersdorff
We classify the complete set of dimension-5 operators relevant for the resonant production of a singlet of spin 0 or 2 linearly coupled to the Standard Model (SM). We compute the d…
On membrane interactions and a three-dimensional analog of Riemann surfaces
Stefano Kovacs, Yuki Sato, Hidehiko Shimada
Membranes in M-theory are expected to interact via splitting and joining processes. We study these effects in the pp-wave matrix model, in which they are associated with transition…
OPE for all Helicity Amplitudes II. Form Factors and Data Analysis
Benjamin Basso, Joao Caetano, Lucia Cordova +2
We present the general flux tube integrand for MHV and non-MHV amplitudes, in planar N = 4 SYM theory, up to a group theoretical rational factor. We find that the MHV and non-MHV c…
Scaling of the 1-halo terms with bias
L. Raul Abramo, Irène Balmès, Fabien Lacasa +1
In the Halo Model, galaxies are hosted by dark matter halos, while the halos themselves are biased tracers of the underlying matter distribution. Measurements of galaxy correlation…
