Four-fermion operators at dimension 6: dispersion relations and UV completions

Aleksandr Azatov, Diptimoy Ghosh, Amartya Harsh Singh

A major task in phenomenology today is constraining the parameter space of SMEFT and constructing models of fundamental physics that the SM derives from. To this effect, we report…

Baryon acoustic oscillations in thin redshift shells from BOSS DR12 and eBOSS DR16 galaxies

Ranier Menote, Valerio Marra

In an age of large astronomical dateset and severe cosmological tensions, the case for model independent analyses is compelling. We present a set of 14 baryon acoustic oscillations…

UV completions, fixing the equations and nonlinearities in -essence

Guillermo Lara, Miguel Bezares, Enrico Barausse

Scalar-tensor theories with first-derivative self interactions, known as -essence, may provide interesting phenomenology on cosmological scales. On smaller scales, however, init…
