Gravitational corrections to Standard Model vacuum decay

Gino Isidori, Vyacheslav S. Rychkov, Alessandro Strumia +1

We refine and update the metastability constraint on the Standard Model top and Higgs masses, by analytically including gravitational corrections to the vacuum decay rate. Present…

Physics at a future Neutrino Factory and super-beam facility

The ISS Physics Working Group

The conclusions of the Physics Working Group of the international scoping study of a future Neutrino Factory and super-beam facility (the ISS) are presented. The ISS was carried by…

Cosmology and Astrophysics of Minimal Dark Matter

Marco Cirelli, Alessandro Strumia, Matteo Tamburini

We consider DM that only couples to SM gauge bosons and fills one gauge multiplet, e.g. a fermion 5-plet (which is automatically stable), or a wino-like 3-plet. We revisit the comp…

The golden ratio prediction for the solar neutrino mixing

Yuji Kajiyama, Martti Raidal, Alessandro Strumia

We present a simple texture that predicts the cotangent of the solar neutrino mixing angle to be equal to the golden ratio. This prediction is 1.4 standard deviations below the pre…

Combining infrared and low-temperature asymptotes in Yang-Mills theories

M. N. Chernodub, V. I. Zakharov

We demonstrate that power-like non-perturbative behavior of gluon and ghost propagators in infrared limit of Yang-Mills theories can provide at finite temperatures T a negative T^4…

New bounds on millicharged particles from cosmology

Alessandro Melchiorri, Antonello Polosa, Alessandro Strumia

Particles with millicharge q and sub-eV mass can be produced in photon-photon collisions, distorting the energy spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background. We derive the conservat…

Gluon Condensate, Wilson Loops and Gauge/String Duality

Oleg Andreev, Valentin I. Zakharov

We test gauge/string duality by evaluating expectation values of small Wilson loops in pure Yang-Mills theories. On the gauge-theory side, there exists rich phenomenology. The dual…

Magnetic strings as part of Yang-Mills plasma

M. N. Chernodub, V. I. Zakharov

Magnetic strings are defined as infinitely thin surfaces which are closed in the vacuum and can be open on an external monopole trajectory (that is, defined by 't Hooft loop). We r…

Thermal production of gravitinos

Vyacheslav S. Rychkov, Alessandro Strumia

We reconsider thermal production of gravitinos in the early universe, adding to previously considered 2 -> 2 gauge scatterings: a) production via 1 -> 2 decays, allowed by thermal…
