Three-dimensional wave optics for weak-field lensing of gravitational waves

Mariana Carrillo-González, Alan Heavens, Lorne Whiteway

We develop a perturbative Green's function approach to gravitational lensing by weak gravitational potentials that need not be localized on a thin lens plane and that applies in bo…

Snowmass White Paper: the Double Copy and its Applications

Tim Adamo, John Joseph M. Carrasco, Mariana Carrillo-González +6

The double copy is, in essence, a map between scattering amplitudes in a broad variety of familiar field and string theories. In addition to the mathematically rich intrinsic struc…

Holographic 2-Point Functions in the Pseudo-Conformal Universe

Mariana Carrillo-Gonzalez, Kurt Hinterbichler, James Stokes +1

We holographically calculate two-point functions in the pseudo-conformal universe, an early universe alternative to inflation. The pseudo-conformal universe can be modeled as a def…

The classical double copy in three spacetime dimensions

Mariana Carrillo González, Brandon Melcher, Kenneth Ratliff +2

The double copy relates scattering amplitudes in gauge and gravity theories, and has also been extended to classical solutions. In this paper, we study solutions in three spacetime…

Asymptotic symmetries of three dimensional gravity and the membrane paradigm

Mariana Carrillo-Gonzalez, Robert F. Penna

The asymptotic symmetry group of three-dimensional (anti) de Sitter space is the two dimensional conformal group with central charge . Usually the asymptotic charge alg…

The classical double copy in maximally symmetric spacetimes

Mariana Carrillo-Gonzalez, Riccardo Penco, Mark Trodden

The classical double copy procedure relates classical asymptotically-flat gravitational field solutions to Yang-Mills and scalar field solutions living in Minkowski space. In this…

Finding structure in the dark: coupled dark energy, weak lensing, and the mildly nonlinear regime

V Miranda, Mariana Carrillo González, Elisabeth Krause +1

We reexamine interactions between the dark sectors of cosmology, with a focus on robust constraints that can be obtained using only mildly nonlinear scales. While it is well known…

Field Theories and Fluids for an Interacting Dark Sector

Mariana Carrillo Gonzalez, Mark Trodden

We consider the relationship between fluid models of an interacting dark sector, and the field theoretical models that underlie such descriptions. This question is particularly imp…

The WKB approximation and tunneling in theories with non-canonical kinetic terms

Mariana Carrillo Gonzalez, Ali Masoumi, Adam R. Solomon +1

Tunneling is a fascinating aspect of quantum mechanics that renders the local minima of a potential meta-stable, with important consequences for particle physics, for the early hot…

Constraining Hybrid Natural Inflation with recent CMB data

J. Alberto Vazquez, Mariana Carrillo-Gonzalez, Gabriel German +2

We study the Hybrid Natural Inflation (HNI) model and some of its realisations in the light of recent CMB observations, mainly Planck temperature and WMAP-9 polarization, and compa…

Discrete graviton spectrum from super-exponential cup potentials and their application to braneworld physics

Mariana Carrillo-Gonzalez, Gabriel German, Alfredo Herrera-Aguilar +2

Super-exponential warp factors have been proposed in the context of two-brane models to solve the gauge hierarchy problem of scales by using a compactification scale of the same or…

Testing Hybrid Natural Inflation with BICEP2

Mariana Carrillo-Gonzalez, Gabriel German, Alfredo Herrera-Aguilar +2

We analyse Hybrid Natural Inflation in view of the recent results for the tensor index reported by BICEP2. We find that it predicts a large running of the scalar spectrum which is…

On gravity localization in scalar braneworlds with a super-exponential warp factor

Mariana Carrillo-Gonzalez, Gabriel German, Alfredo Herrera-Aguilar +1

We show that within tachyonic braneworld models,"super-exponential" warp factors of the form are problematic when dealing with both the finitene…

Correlation of the highest-energy cosmic rays with the positions of nearby active galactic nuclei

The Pierre Auger Collaboration

Data collected by the Pierre Auger Observatory provide evidence for anisotropy in the arrival directions of the cosmic rays with the highest energies, which are correlated with the…
