Catalyzed Baryogenesis
Yang Bai, Joshua Berger, Mrunal Korwar +1
A novel mechanism, "catalyzed baryogenesis," is proposed to explain the observed baryon asymmetry in our universe. In this mechanism, the motion of a ball-like catalyst provides th…
Neutrino As The Dark Force
Nicholas Orlofsky, Yue Zhang
We point out a novel role for the Standard Model neutrino in dark matter phenomenology where the exchange of neutrinos generates a long-range potential between dark matter particle…
Searching for Magnetic Monopoles with the Earth's Magnetic Field
Yang Bai, Sida Lu, Nicholas Orlofsky
Magnetic monopoles have long been predicted in theory and could exist as a stable object in our universe. As they move around in galaxies, magnetic monopoles could be captured by a…
Phenomenology of Magnetic Black Holes with Electroweak-Symmetric Coronas
Yang Bai, Joshua Berger, Mrunal Korwar +1
Magnetically charged black holes (MBHs) are interesting solutions of the Standard Model and general relativity. They may possess a "hairy" electroweak-symmetric corona outside the…
Electroweak-Symmetric Dark Monopoles from Preheating
Yang Bai, Mrunal Korwar, Nicholas Orlofsky
If the dark sector contains 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles and a small enough dark gauge coupling, dark monopoles could be a macroscopic dark matter candidate. Its Higgs-portal coupli…
Primordial Extremal Black Holes as Dark Matter
Yang Bai, Nicholas Orlofsky
We show that primordial (nearly) extremal black holes with a wide range of masses from the Planck scale to around g could be cosmologically stable and explain dark matter, g…
