Bounds on charged-lepton flavor violations via resonant scattering
Emidio Gabrielli, Barbara Mele, Roberto Onofrio
We explore the possibility of probing flavor violations in the charged-lepton sector by means of high-luminosity lepton-photon and electron-muon collisions, by inverting initial an…
Black hole production at lepton colliders
Hang Qi, Roberto Onofrio
Production of black holes has been discussed in a variety of extensions of the Standard Model, and related bounds have been established from data taken at the Large Hadron Collider…
High-energy density implications of a gravitoweak unification scenario
Roberto Onofrio
We discuss how a scenario recently proposed for the morphing of macroscopic gravitation into weak interactions at the attometer scale affects our current understanding of high-ener…
On weak interactions as short-distance manifestations of gravity
Roberto Onofrio
We conjecture that weak interactions are peculiar manifestations of quantum gravity at the Fermi scale, and that the Fermi constant is related to the Newtonian constant of gravitat…
Search for Higgs shifts in white dwarfs
Roberto Onofrio, Gary A. Wegner
We report on a search for differential shifts between electronic and vibronic transitions in carbon-rich white dwarfs BPM 27606 and Procyon B. The absence of differential shifts wi…
Proton radius puzzle and quantum gravity at the Fermi scale
Roberto Onofrio
We show how the "proton radius puzzle" emerging from the measurement of the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen may be solved by means of a binding energy contribution due to an effectiv…
Neutrino mass variability due to nonminimal coupling to spacetime curvature in neutrinophilic two-Higgs-doublet models
Roberto Onofrio
In neutrinophilic two-Higgs-doublet models, neutrinos acquire mass due to a Higgs field with vacuum expectation value of the order of 10^{-2} eV, corresponding to a Compton wavelen…
Macroscopic quantum vacuum and microscopic gravitation
Roberto Onofrio
Macroscopic quantum vacuum and modern theories of gravitation share the strong interplay between geometry and physical phenomena. We review selected issues related to the accuracy…
Casimir forces and non-Newtonian gravitation
Roberto Onofrio
The search for non-relativistic deviations from Newtonian gravitation can lead to new phenomena signalling the unification of gravity with the other fundamental interactions. Vario…
