Environment-dependent mass splitting to suppress solar capture in the inelastic-doublet interpretation of the LZ event
Sudhakantha Girmohanta, Tae Hyun Jung
The inelastic electroweak-doublet interpretation of the recoil energy event reported by LUX-ZEPLIN faces strong constraints from solar capture. We propose an envir…
Dark Transport Erases Baryon Inhomogeneity from Supercooled Phase Transitions
Sudhakantha Girmohanta, Kohei Kamada, Yuichiro Nakai +1
Supercooled phase transitions can generate observable gravitational waves, but their bubble dynamics may also imprint large spatial inhomogeneities in the baryon asymmetry. For pha…
Neutron Portal and Dark Matter-Baryon Coincidence: from UV Completion to Phenomenology
Sudhakantha Girmohanta, Yuichiro Nakai, Yoshihiro Shigekami +1
We present a dynamical solution to the dark matter-baryon coincidence problem based on the neutron portal operator connecting the visible and dark sector asymmetries. This framewor…
Postsphaleron darkogenesis
Sudhakantha Girmohanta, Yuichiro Nakai, Zhihao Zhang
A supercooled phase transition in a nearly conformal dark sector can provide a natural setting for darkogenesis via its out-of-equilibrium dynamics, where a particle-antiparticle n…
Implications of DESI for Dark Matter & Cosmic Birefringence
Basabendu Barman, Sudhakantha Girmohanta
We explore an interacting dark matter (DM)-dark energy (DE) framework that naturally yields an effective dynamical DE equation of state crossing the phantom barrier at early times,…
Quest for a phenomenologically consistent low cutoff theory
Sudhakantha Girmohanta, Yu-Cheng Qiu
The Randall-Sundrum model with the Higgs localized on the IR brane solves the gauge hierarchy problem. However, the associated low cutoff ( TeV) generically leads to unac…
Interplay of ALP Couplings at a Muon Collider

Axion-like particles can couple to Standard Model gluons, electroweak gauge bosons, and massive fermions. A future multi-TeV muon collider provides a favorable environment to probe…
Multi-Messenger and Cosmological Constraints on Dark Matter through Two-Fluid Neutron Star Modeling
Ankit Kumar, Sudhakantha Girmohanta, Hajime Sotani
In this study, we investigate the impact of dark matter (DM) on neutron stars (NSs) using a two-fluid formalism that treats nuclear matter (NM) and DM as gravitationally coupled co…
Wiggly dilaton: a landscape of spontaneously broken scale invariance
Sudhakantha Girmohanta, Yuichiro Nakai, Yu-Cheng Qiu +1
The dilaton emerges as a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson (pNGB) associated with the spontaneous breaking of scale invariance in a nearly conformal field theory (CFT). We show the exis…
Cold Darkogenesis: Dark Matter and Baryon Asymmetry in Light of the PTA Signal
Kohei Fujikura, Sudhakantha Girmohanta, Yuichiro Nakai +1
We build upon the intriguing possibility that the recently reported nano-Hz gravitational wave signal by Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) experiments is sourced by a strong first-order ph…
How Viable Is a QCD Axion near 10 MeV?
Sudhakantha Girmohanta, Shota Nakagawa, Yuichiro Nakai +1
There has been an attempt to revive the visible QCD axion at the 10 MeV scale assuming that it exclusively couples to the first-generation quarks and the electron. This variant of…
