On Black Hole Echoes
Guido D'Amico, Nemanja Kaloper
We consider a very simple model for gravitational wave echoes from black hole merger ringdowns which may arise from local Lorentz symmetry violations that modify graviton dispersio…
Roadmap on Wilson loops in 3d Chern-Simons-matter theories
Nadav Drukker, Diego Trancanelli, Lorenzo Bianchi +18
This is a compact review of recent results on supersymmetric Wilson loops in ABJ(M) and related theories. It aims to be a quick introduction to the state of the art in the field an…
Circular Wilson loops in defect =4 SYM: phase transitions, double-scaling limits and OPE expansion
S. Bonansea, S. Davoli, L. Griguolo +1
We consider circular Wilson loops in a defect version of super-Yang-Mills theory which is dual to the D3-D5 brane system with units of flux. When the loops are…
Rare events in stochastic processes with sub-exponential distributions and the Big Jump principle
Raffaella Burioni, Alessandro Vezzani
Rare events in stochastic processes with heavy-tailed distributions are controlled by the big jump principle, which states that a rare large fluctuation is produced by a single eve…
Self-organized bistability and its possible relevance for brain dynamics
Victor Buendía, Serena di Santo, Pablo Villegas +2
Self-organized bistability (SOB) is the counterpart of 'self-organized criticality' (SOC), for systems tuning themselves to the edge of bistability of a discontinuous phase transit…
Efficient Cosmological Analysis of the SDSS/BOSS data from the Effective Field Theory of Large-Scale Structure
Thomas Colas, Guido D'Amico, Leonardo Senatore +2
The precision of the cosmological data allows us to accurately approximate the predictions for cosmological observables by Taylor expanding up to a low order the dependence on the…
Numerical-relativity simulations of long-lived remnants of binary neutron star mergers
Roberto De Pietri, Alessandra Feo, José A. Font +3
We analyze the properties of the gravitational wave signal emitted after the merger of a binary neutron star system when the remnant survives for more than a 80 ms (and up to 140ms…
The Cosmological Analysis of the SDSS/BOSS data from the Effective Field Theory of Large-Scale Structure
Guido D'Amico, Jérôme Gleyzes, Nickolas Kokron +5
The Effective Field Theory of Large-Scale Structure (EFTofLSS) is a formalism that allows us to predict the clustering of Cosmological Large-Scale Structure in the mildly non-linea…
An Optically Targeted Search for Gravitational Waves emitted by Core-Collapse Supernovae during the First and Second Observing Runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1195
We present the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernovae observed within a source distance of approximately 20 Mpc during the…
Rare events in generalized Lévy Walks and the Big Jump principle
Alessandro Vezzani, Eli Barkai, Raffaella Burioni
The prediction and control of rare events is an important task in disciplines that range from physics and biology, to economics and social science. The Big Jump principle deals wit…
A gravitational-wave measurement of the Hubble constant following the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Virgo
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1186
This paper presents the gravitational-wave measurement of the Hubble constant () using the detections from the first and second observing runs of the Advanced LIGO and Virgo d…
Model comparison from LIGO-Virgo data on GW170817's binary components and consequences for the merger remnant
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1191
GW170817 is the very first observation of gravitational waves originating from the coalescence of two compact objects in the mass range of neutron stars, accompanied by electromagn…
Measuring Bias via the Consistency Relations of the Large Scale Structure
Marco Marinucci, Takahiro Nishimichi, Massimo Pietroni
Consistency Relations (CR) for the Large Scale Structure are exact equalities between correlation functions of different order. These relations descend from the equivalence princip…
Search for Eccentric Binary Black Hole Mergers with Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo during their First and Second Observing Runs
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1183
When formed through dynamical interactions, stellar-mass binary black holes may retain eccentric orbits ( at 10 Hz) detectable by ground-based gravitational-wave detectors.…
Search for gravitational-wave signals associated with gamma-ray bursts during the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo
B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +1196
We present the results of targeted searches for gravitational-wave transients associated with gamma-ray bursts during the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo,…
Search for intermediate mass black hole binaries in the first and second observing runs of the Advanced LIGO and Virgo network
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1196
Gravitational wave astronomy has been firmly established with the detection of gravitational waves from the merger of ten stellar mass binary black holes and a neutron star binary.…
Transport in disordered systems: the single big jump approach
Wanli Wang, Alessandro Vezzani, Raffaella Burioni +1
In a growing number of strongly disordered and dense systems, the dynamics of a particle pulled by an external force field exhibits super-diffusion. In the context of glass forming…
Direct anthropic bound on the weak scale from supernovae explosions
Guido D'Amico, Alessandro Strumia, Alfredo Urbano +1
Core-collapse supernovae presumably explode because trapped neutrinos push the material out of the stellar envelope. This process is directly controlled by the weak scale : we a…

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1187
We present an Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo search for sub-solar mass ultracompact objects in data obtained during Advanced LIGO's second observing run. In contrast to a previou…
The low-temperature phase in the two-dimensional long-range diluted XY model
Fabiana Cescatti, Miguel Ibáñez-Berganza, Alessandro Vezzani +1
The critical behaviour of statistical models with long-range interactions exhibits distinct regimes as a function of , the power of the interaction strength decay. For large…
Merger of compact stars in the two-families scenario
Roberto De Pietri, Alessandro Drago, Alessandra Feo +4
We analyse the phenomenological implications of the two-families scenario on the merger of compact stars. That scenario is based on the coexistence of both hadronic stars and stran…
