Filtered Baryogenesis
Michael J. Baker, Moritz Breitbach, Joachim Kopp +2
We propose a new mechanism to simultaneously explain the observed dark matter abundance and the baryon asymmetry of the Universe. The mechanism is based on the Filtered Dark Matter…
Detailed Calculation of Primordial Black Hole Formation During First-Order Cosmological Phase Transitions
Michael J. Baker, Moritz Breitbach, Joachim Kopp +1
Primordial black holes could potentially form during a first-order cosmological phase transition due to a build-up of particles which are predominantly reflected from the advancing…
Primordial Black Holes from First-Order Cosmological Phase Transitions
Michael J. Baker, Moritz Breitbach, Joachim Kopp +1
We discuss the possibility of forming primordial black holes during a first-order phase transition in the early Universe. As is well known, such a phase transition proceeds through…
Searching for Physics Beyond the Standard Model in an Off-Axis DUNE Near Detector
Moritz Breitbach, Luca Buonocore, Claudia Frugiuele +2
Next generation neutrino oscillation experiments like DUNE and T2HK are multi-purpose observatories, with a rich physics program beyond oscillation measurements. A special role is…
Prospects for Fundamental Physics with LISA
Enrico Barausse, Emanuele Berti, Thomas Hertog +318
In this paper, which is of programmatic rather than quantitative nature, we aim to further delineate and sharpen the future potential of the LISA mission in the area of fundamental…
Variations on the Vev Flip-Flop: Instantaneous Freeze-out and Decaying Dark Matter
Michael J. Baker, Lukas Mittnacht
In this work we consider a simple model for dark matter and identify regions of parameter space where the relic abundance is set via kinematic thresholds, which open and close due…
Dynamic Freeze-In: Impact of Thermal Masses and Cosmological Phase Transitions on Dark Matter Production
Michael J. Baker, Moritz Breitbach, Joachim Kopp +1
The cosmological abundance of dark matter can be significantly influenced by the temperature dependence of particle masses and vacuum expectation values. We illustrate this point i…
