ACROPOLIS: A generiC fRamework fOr Photodisintegration Of LIght elementS
Paul Frederik Depta, Marco Hufnagel, Kai Schmidt-Hoberg
The remarkable agreement between observations of the primordial light element abundances and the corresponding theoretical predictions within the standard cosmological history prov…
Updated BBN constraints on electromagnetic decays of MeV-scale particles
Paul Frederik Depta, Marco Hufnagel, Kai Schmidt-Hoberg
In this work, we revise and update model-independent constraints from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis on MeV-scale particles which decay into photons and/or electron-positron pairs. W…
Complete leading-order standard model corrections to quantum leptogenesis
Paul Frederik Depta, Andreas Halsch, Janine Hütig +2
Thermal leptogenesis, in the framework of the standard model with three additional heavy Majorana neutrinos, provides an attractive scenario to explain the observed baryon asymmetr…
Robust cosmological constraints on axion-like particles
Paul Frederik Depta, Marco Hufnagel, Kai Schmidt-Hoberg
Axion-like particles with masses in the keV-GeV range have a profound impact on the cosmological evolution of our Universe, in particular on the abundance of light elements produce…
BBN constraints on the annihilation of MeV-scale dark matter
Paul Frederik Depta, Marco Hufnagel, Kai Schmidt-Hoberg +1
Thermal dark matter at the MeV scale faces stringent bounds from a variety of cosmological probes. Here we perform a detailed evaluation of BBN bounds on the annihilation cross sec…
Strong constraints on clustered primordial black holes as dark matter
Torsten Bringmann, Paul Frederik Depta, Valerie Domcke +1
The idea of dark matter in the form of primordial black holes has seen a recent revival triggered by the LIGO detection of gravitational waves from binary black hole mergers. In th…
