On-shell Higgsing for EFTs
Reuven Balkin, Gauthier Durieux, Teppei Kitahara +2
We study the on-shell version of the Higgs mechanism in effective theories (EFTs) containing particles of different spins, focusing on contact terms as a simple starting point. We…
Runaway Relaxion from Finite Density
Reuven Balkin, Javi Serra, Konstantin Springmann +2
Finite density effects can destabilize the metastable vacua in relaxion models. Focusing on stars as nucleation seeds, we derive the conditions that lead to the formation and runaw…
Probing ALPs at the CERN Gamma Factory
Reuven Balkin, Mieczyslaw W. Krasny, Teng Ma +2
The aim of the proposed CERN Gamma Factory is to produce photons per second with energies up to 400 MeV. The photon beam intensity is expected to be a factor of $\ma…
Density Induced Vacuum Instability
Reuven Balkin, Javi Serra, Konstantin Springmann +2
We consider matter density effects in theories with a false ground state. Large and dense systems, such as stars, can destabilize a metastable minimum and allow for the formation o…
A Custodial Symmetry for Muon g-2
Reuven Balkin, Cedric Delaunay, Michael Geller +4
We discuss the recent results on the muon anomalous magnetic moment in the context of new physics models with light scalars. We propose a model in which the one-loop contributions…
