Next-to-Leading-Order Electroweak Corrections to Quantum Observables in Lepton-Lepton Collisions

Spencer Chang, Thomas Driscoll, Sokratis Trifinopoulos

We study how virtual next-to-leading-order electroweak corrections affect the quantum observables of entanglement and magic in lepton--lepton collisions. Treating the outgoing part…

Baryogenesis from Exploding Primordial Black Holes

Alexandra P. Klipfel, Miguel Vanvlasselaer, Sokratis Trifinopoulos +1

Exploding primordial black holes can source baryon asymmetry soon after the electroweak phase transition, as high-energy Hawking radiation drives ultrarelativistic shocks in the su…

Searching for exotic scalars at fusion reactors

Chaja Baruch, Patrick J. Fitzpatrick, Tony Menzo +3

The energy created in deuterium-tritium fusion reactors originates from a high-intensity neutron flux interacting with the reactor's inner walls. The neutron flux can also be used…

Spontaneous symmetry breaking, gauge hierarchy and electroweak vacuum metastability

Sean Benevedes, Thomas Steingasser, Sokratis Trifinopoulos

The so-called metastability bound asserts that an unnaturally small Higgs mass is a necessary condition for electroweak vacuum metastability, offering a new approach towards solvin…
