A Wavelet Analysis of Solar Climate Forcing: I) Solar Cycle Timescales
Matthew J. Lewis, Katherine Freese
We use the technique of wavelet analysis to quantitatively investigate the role of solar variability in forcing terrestrial climate change on solar cycle timescales (roughly 11 yea…
Death of Stellar Baryonic Dark Matter Candidates
Katherine Freese, Brian Fields, David Graff
The nature of the dark matter in the Universe is one of the outstanding questions in astrophysics. In this talk, I address possible stellar baryonic contributions to the 50-90% of…
Limits on Stellar Objects as the Dark Matter of Our Halo: Nonbaryonic Dark Matter Seems to be Required
Katherine Freese, Brian Fields, David Graff
The nature of the dark matter in the Halo of our Galaxy remains a mystery. Arguments are presented that the dark matter does not consist of ordinary stellar or substellar objects,…
Natural Inflation
Katherine Freese
A pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson, with a potential of the form , can naturally give rise to an epoch of inflation in the early universe (Freese, Frieman,…
The Mad Era: A Possible New Resolution to the Horizon, Flatness, and Monopole Problems
Katherine Freese, Janna J Levin
A cosmology with a dynamical Planck mass is shown to solve the horizon and monopole problems (and possibly flatness) if there is an early MAD (modified aging) era where th…
