Stability of domain walls with inflationary fluctuations under potential bias, and gravitational wave signatures
Naoya Kitajima, Junseok Lee, Fuminobu Takahashi +1
A recent study has shown that domain walls with inflationary initial fluctuations exhibit remarkable stability against population bias due to long-range correlations, challenging t…
Primordial Origin of Supermassive Black Holes from Axion Bubbles
Kentaro Kasai, Masahiro Kawasaki, Naoya Kitajima +3
We study a modification of the primordial black hole (PBH) formation model from axion bubbles. We assume that the Peccei-Quinn scalar rolls down in the radial direction from a larg…
Dissipation of axion energy via the Schwinger and Witten effects
Kwang Sik Jeong, Shota Nakagawa, Fuminobu Takahashi +1
In the presence of an anomalous CP phase in a U(1) gauge theory, a monopole becomes a dyon via the Witten effect. When the anomalous CP phase is promoted to a dynamical field, the…
