The topological line of ABJ(M) theory

Nicola Gorini, Luca Griguolo, Luigi Guerrini +3

We construct the one-dimensional topological sector of ABJ(M) theory and study its relation with the mass-deformed partition function on . Supersymmetric loca…

Limits on Clustering and Smooth Quintessence from the EFTofLSS

Guido D'Amico, Yaniv Donath, Leonardo Senatore +1

We apply the Effective Field Theory of Large-Scale Structure (EFTofLSS) to analyze cosmological models with clustering quintessence, which allows us to consistently describe the pa…

Rollercoaster Cosmology

Guido D'Amico, Nemanja Kaloper

(Abridged) Does inflation have to happen all in one go? The answer is a resounding no! All cosmological problems can be solved by a sequence of short bursts of cosmic acceleration,…

Hybrid-type synchronization transitions: where marginal coherence, scale-free avalanches, and bistability live together

Victor Buendía, Pablo Villegas, Raffaella Burioni +1

The human cortex is never at rest but in a state of sparse and noisy neural activity that can be detected at broadly diverse resolution scales. It has been conjectured that such a…

Taylor expansions on Lefschetz thimbles (and not only that)

Francesco Di Renzo, Simran Singh, Kevin Zambello

Thimble regularisation is a possible solution to the sign problem, which is evaded by formulating quantum field theories on manifolds where the imaginary part of the action stays c…

Gravitational-wave constraints on the equatorial ellipticity of millisecond pulsars

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1333

We present a search for continuous gravitational waves from five radio pulsars, comprising three recycled pulsars (PSR J0437-4715, PSR J0711-6830, and PSR J0737-3039A) and two youn…

Feedback mechanisms for self-organization to the edge of a phase transition

Victor Buendía, Serena di Santo, Juan A. Bonachela +1

Scale-free outbursts of activity are commonly observed in physical, geological, and biological systems. The idea of self-organized criticality (SOC), introduced back in 1987 by Bak…

The Hubble Tension in Light of the Full-Shape Analysis of Large-Scale Structure Data

Guido D'Amico, Leonardo Senatore, Pierre Zhang +1

The disagreement between direct late-time measurements of the Hubble constant from the SH0ES collaboration, and early-universe measurements based on the CDM model from the Planc…

GW190412: Observation of a Binary-Black-Hole Coalescence with Asymmetric Masses

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1254

We report the observation of gravitational waves from a binary-black-hole coalescence during the first two weeks of LIGO's and Virgo's third observing run. The signal was recorded…

Active and inactive quarantine in epidemic spreading on adaptive activity-driven networks

Marco Mancastroppa, Raffaella Burioni, Vittoria Colizza +1

We consider an epidemic process on adaptive activity-driven temporal networks, with adaptive behaviour modelled as a change in activity and attractiveness due to infection. By usin…

Analytic bootstrap and Witten diagrams for the ABJM Wilson line as defect CFT

Lorenzo Bianchi, Gabriel Bliard, Valentina Forini +2

We study local operator insertions on 1/2-BPS line defects in ABJM theory. Specifically, we consider a class of four-point correlators in the CFT with SU superconform…

Dephasing-rephasing dynamics of one-dimensional tunneling quasicondensates

Andrea Tononi, Flavio Toigo, Sandro Wimberger +2

We study the quantum tunneling of two one-dimensional quasi-condensates made of alkali-metal atoms, considering two different tunneling configurations: side-by-side and head-to-tai…

Blinded challenge for precision cosmology with large-scale structure: results from effective field theory for the redshift-space galaxy power spectrum

Takahiro Nishimichi, Guido D'Amico, Mikhail M. Ivanov +5

An accurate theoretical template for the galaxy power spectrum is a key for the success of ongoing and future spectroscopic surveys. We examine to what extent the Effective Field T…

Limits on CDM from the EFTofLSS with the PyBird code

Guido D'Amico, Leonardo Senatore, Pierre Zhang

We apply the Effective Field Theory of Large-Scale Structure to analyze the CDM cosmological model. By using the full shape of the power spectrum and the BAO post-reconstruction…

The exploration of the Adjacent Possible explains the emergence and evolution of social networks

Enrico Ubaldi, Raffaella Burioni, Vittorio Loreto +1

The interactions among human beings represent the backbone of our societies. How people interact, establish new connections, and allocate their activities among these links can rev…

A Joint Fermi-GBM and LIGO/Virgo Analysis of Compact Binary Mergers From the First and Second Gravitational-wave Observing Runs

ray Burst Monitor Team, the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration +1262

We present results from offline searches of Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) data for gamma-ray transients coincident with the compact binary coalescences observed by the gravit…

Non-interacting many-particle quantum transport between finite reservoirs

Giulio Amato, Heinz-Peter Breuer, Sandro Wimberger +2

We present a formalism to study many-particle quantum transport across a lattice locally connected to two finite, non-stationary (bosonic or fermionic) reservoirs, both of which ar…

GW190425: Observation of a Compact Binary Coalescence with Total Mass

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1199

On 2019 April 25, the LIGO Livingston detector observed a compact binary coalescence with signal-to-noise ratio 12.9. The Virgo detector was also taking data that did not contribut…
