Squashed Pyramid Interferometer Network (SPIN): Direct Access to Chirality of Cosmological Gravitational Waves
Dmitri E. Kharzeev, Azadeh Maleknejad, Saba Shalamberidze
The cosmological gravitational wave background provides a powerful window on parity-violating physics at energies far beyond the reach of terrestrial experiments. However, any colo…
When Geometry Radiates Review: Gravitational Waves in Theory, Cosmology, and Observation
Azadeh Maleknejad
Gravitational waves provide a unique window into gravity, cosmology, and high-energy physics, enabling the exploration of fundamental phenomena across a wide range of scales. This…
QuGrav: Bringing gravitational waves to light with Qumodes
Dmitri E. Kharzeev, Azadeh Maleknejad, Saba Shalamberidze
We propose using qumodes, quantum bosonic modes, for detecting high-frequency gravitational waves via the inverse Gertsenshtein effect, where a gravitational wave resonantly conver…
The isotropic attractor solution of axion-SU(2) inflation: Universal isotropization in Bianchi type-I geometry
Ira Wolfson, Azadeh Maleknejad, Tomoaki Murata +2
SU(2) gauge fields coupled to an axion field can acquire an isotropic background solution during inflation. We study homogeneous but anisotropic inflationary solutions in the prese…
How attractive is the isotropic attractor solution of axion-SU(2) inflation?
Ira Wolfson, Azadeh Maleknejad, Eiichiro Komatsu
The key to the phenomenological success of inflation models with axion and SU(2) gauge fields is the isotropic background of the SU(2) field. Previous studies showed that this isot…
