Mermin Devices for Generalized Dicke States
Roman V. Buniy, Thomas W. Kephart
We present here several new exact results for a number of entangled states: the W-state of three qubits and its generalization -- Dicke states for more than three qubits. We derive…
DESI-Like Hubble Expansion From Staged Symmetry Breaking: Constraints on Renormalizable Models
Zachary J. Hoelscher, Thomas W. Kephart, Robert J. Scherrer +1
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) second data release shows a moderate preference for dark energy with a time-varying equation of state parameter, suggesting that the…
Dynamic Lasing of Axion Clusters
Liang Chen, Thomas W. Kephart
We examine high-density axion clusters under gravitational compression. These are transient events in which the majority of axions are rapidly converted into photons, with some con…
Cosmological Impacts of Black Hole Mergers: No Relief in Sight for the Hubble Tension
Zachary J. Hoelscher, Thomas W. Kephart, Kelly Holley-Bockelmann
The values of the Hubble constant inferred from local measurements and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) exhibit an approximately 5 sigma tension. Some have suggested this tens…
Magnetic Monopoles and Exotic States in
Thomas W. Kephart, Qaisar Shafi
In the Pati-Salam gauge symmetry (4-2-2, for short), the observed quarks and leptons of each family reside in the bi-fundamental representat…
Particle Theory and Theoretical Cosmology Dedicated to Professor Paul Howard Frampton on the Occasion of his 80th Birthday
Thomas W. Kephart, Paul H. Frampton
After a Preface written by the Editors, there follow twelve papers submitted by theoretical physicists from Asia, Europe and the USA.
