Q-Monopole-Ball: A Topological and Nontopological Soliton
Yang Bai, Sida Lu, Nicholas Orlofsky
Magnetic monopoles and Q-balls are examples of topological and nontopological solitons, respectively. A new soliton state with both topological and nontopological charges is shown…

B-modes from Post-inflationary Gravitational Waves Sourced by Axionic Instabilities at Cosmic Reionization
Michael Geller, Sida Lu, Yuhsin Tsai
We show that axion-like particles that only couple to invisible dark photons can generate visible B-mode signals around the reionization epoch. The axion field starts rolling short…

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…
