Probes of Gravitational Waves with Atom Interferometers

John Ellis, Ville Vaskonen

Atom interferometers (AIs) on earth and in space offer good capabilities for measuring gravitational waves (GWs) in the mid-frequency deciHz band, complementing the sensitivities o…

On bubble collisions in strongly supercooled phase transitions

Marek Lewicki, Ville Vaskonen

We study strongly supercooled cosmological phase transitions. We perform numerical lattice simulations of two-bubble collisions and demonstrate that, depending on the scalar potent…

AION: An Atom Interferometer Observatory and Network

L. Badurina, E. Bentine, D. Blas +38

We outline the experimental concept and key scientific capabilities of AION (Atom Interferometer Observatory and Network), a proposed UK-based experimental programme using cold str…

Lower bound on the primordial black hole merger rate

Ville Vaskonen, Hardi Veermäe

We derive a lower bound on the merger rate of primordial black hole (PBH) binaries by estimating the maximal fraction of binaries that were perturbed between formation in the early…

AEDGE: Atomic Experiment for Dark Matter and Gravity Exploration in Space

Yousef Abou El-Neaj, Cristiano Alpigiani, Sana Amairi-Pyka +129

We propose in this White Paper a concept for a space experiment using cold atoms to search for ultra-light dark matter, and to detect gravitational waves in the frequency range bet…

On the validity of perturbative studies of the electroweak phase transition in the Two Higgs Doublet model

Kimmo Kainulainen, Venus Keus, Lauri Niemi +3

Making use of a dimensionally-reduced effective theory at high temperature, we perform a nonperturbative study of the electroweak phase transition in the Two Higgs Doublet model. W…
