A Tale of Two 's: Kinetic Mixing from Lattice WGC States
Georges Obied, Aditya Parikh
We point out that the states required by the Lattice Weak Gravity Conjecture, along with certain genericity conditions, imply the existence of non-vanishing kinetic mixing between…
Topological Gravity as the Early Phase of Our Universe
Prateek Agrawal, Sergei Gukov, Georges Obied +1
Motivated by string dualities we propose topological gravity as the early phase of our universe. The topological nature of this phase naturally leads to the explanation of many of…
CMB-S4 Decadal Survey APC White Paper
Kevork Abazajian, Graeme Addison, Peter Adshead +222
We provide an overview of the science case, instrument configuration and project plan for the next-generation ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment CMB-S4, for consid…
CMB-S4 Science Case, Reference Design, and Project Plan
Kevork Abazajian, Graeme Addison, Peter Adshead +222
We present the science case, reference design, and project plan for the Stage-4 ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment CMB-S4.
Tension, Swampland Conjectures and the Epoch of Fading Dark Matter
Prateek Agrawal, Georges Obied, Cumrun Vafa
Motivated by the swampland dS conjecture, we consider a rolling scalar field as the source of dark energy. Furthermore, the swampland distance conjecture suggests that the rolling…
Dark Energy and the Refined de Sitter Conjecture
Prateek Agrawal, Georges Obied
We revisit the phenomenology of quintessence models in light of the recently refined version of the de Sitter Swampland conjecture, which includes the possibility of unstable de Si…
