Probing Bose-enhanced Inflaton Decay with Gravitational Waves

Nicolás Bernal, Quan-feng Wu, Xun-Jie Xu +1

We investigate cosmic reheating dynamics in the presence of a transient condensate formed by bosonic decay products of the inflaton. We show that the emergence of such a condensate…

Cosmology of Gravi-Axions

Stephon Alexander, Gregory Gabadadze, Leah Jenks +1

We show how a mass term for gravitational axions (''gravi-axions'') with a Chern-Simons coupling to gravity can naturally arise due to non-perturbative contributions from Euclidean…

Cosmic Overture Echoed in a Stellar Final Act: Implications of Nanohertz Gravitational Waves for Core Collapse Supernova Neutrinos

Hooman Davoudiasl, Peter B. Denton, Anna M. Suliga

The growing evidence for nanohertz gravitational waves, from NANOGrav and other observations, may be pointing to a cosmological first-order phase transition at temperatures of $\ma…

Flavor hierarchies with nonminimal irreducible representations

Hannah Banks, Graeme Crawford, Matthew McCullough +1

We propose a new class of flavour models in which the spurion which breaks Standard Model flavour symmetries transforms in a non-minimal representation. Hierarchies in fermion mass…

Lepton Flavor Violation: From Muon Decays to Muon Colliders

Pouya Asadi, Hengameh Bagherian, Katherine Fraser +2

We investigate the unique potential of a high-energy muon collider to probe lepton-flavor-violating signals arising from physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). Low-energy, precisi…

Cosmic-ray cooling by dark matter in astrophysical jets

Dimitrios Kantzas, Francesca Calore, Marco Chianese

Astrophysical jets from powerful active galactic nuclei (AGN) have recently been proposed as promising probes of dark matter (DM) in the sub-GeV mass range. AGN launch relativistic…
