Probing High-Quality Axions with Gravitational Waves

Ruiyu Zhou, Jin-Wei Wang, Ligong Bian

We present a systematic study of gravitational wave (GW) signals from phase transitions and topological defects in a unified high-quality axion framework. The gauged symme…

Gravitational waves and dark matter with Witten effect

Ruiyu Zhou, Ligong Bian

We investigate the breaking of dark symmetry at different temperature scales, occurring after Peccei-Quinn symmetry breaking or following QCD symmetry breaking. We focus…

Gravitational waves and monopoles dark matter from first-order phase transition

Jing Yang, Ruiyu Zhou, Ligong Bian

We study the possibility of monopoles serving as dark matter when they are produced during the first-order phase transition in the dark sector. Our study shows that dark monopoles…

Electroweak Phase Transition and Gravitational Waves in the Type-II Seesaw Model

Ruiyu Zhou, Ligong Bian, Yong Du

The type-II seesaw model is a possible candidate for simultaneously explaining non-vanishing neutrino masses and the observed baryon asymmetry of the Universe. In this work, we stu…
