Do Finite Density Effects Jeopardize Axion Nucleophobia in Supernovae?

Luca Di Luzio, Vincenzo Fiorentino, Maurizio Giannotti +2

Nucleophobic axion models, wherein axion couplings to both protons and neutrons are simultaneously suppressed, can relax the stringent constraints from SN 1987A. However, it remain…

What is the scale of new physics behind the muon ?

Lukas Allwicher, Luca Di Luzio, Marco Fedele +2

We study the constraints imposed by perturbative unitarity on the new physics interpretation of the muon anomaly. Within a Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) appro…

Solar axions cannot explain the XENON1T excess

Luca Di Luzio, Marco Fedele, Maurizio Giannotti +2

We argue that the interpretation in terms of solar axions of the recent XENON1T excess is not tenable when confronted with astrophysical observations of stellar evolution. We discu…

Covert symmetries in the neutrino mass matrix

Fredrik Björkeroth, Luca Di Luzio, Federico Mescia +1

The flavour neutrino puzzle is often addressed by considering neutrino mass matrices with a certain number of vanishing entries ( for some values of the indices), sin…

Axion-electron decoupling in nucleophobic axion models

Fredrik Björkeroth, Luca Di Luzio, Federico Mescia +3

The strongest upper bounds on the axion mass come from astrophysical observations like the neutrino burst duration of SN1987A, which depends on the axion couplings to nucleons, or…

flavour symmetries as Peccei-Quinn symmetries

Fredrik Björkeroth, Luca Di Luzio, Federico Mescia +1

We investigate to what extent a generic, generation-dependent symmetry acting on the quark Yukawa operators can reduce the number of free parameters by forcing some entries…
