ULTRAMAN: A Proposed ultrasound detector for macroscopic dark matter

Oem Trivedi, Robert J. Scherrer, Alfredo Gurrola

We propose ULTRAMAN (ULTRAsound Macro ANalyzer), a passive ultrasound array experiment designed to search for macroscopic dark matter (macros) through coherent acoustic disturbance…

Relic Neutrinos Probing Small Scale Primordial Non-Gaussianity

Suraj Gavhale, Shin'ichi Nojiri, Sergei D. Odintsov +1

Relic neutrinos retain a record of electromagnetic entropy production after neutrino decoupling, probing primordial modes erased from the primary CMB. We derive the cubic photon nu…

Dark Matter-Baryon Separability Predicts the Dynamics of an Almost-Dark Galaxy

Oem Trivedi, Abraham Loeb

We extend the Dark Matter-Baryon Separability Condition to show that the same framework developed for dark matter deficient galaxies naturally admits a conjugate branch describing…

Dark Energy in the Plane

Oem Trivedi, Robert J. Scherrer, Alfredo Gurrola

We introduce a unified framework for dark energy diagnostics based on the joint phase space of the equation of state and the sound speed . The resulting plane…

Dark Matter Deficient Galaxies as Probes of Dark Matter

Oem Trivedi, Abraham Loeb

Dark matter deficient galaxies provide a direct way to test whether baryons and dark matter can become sufficiently separated during galaxy evolution. We formulate a Dark Matter-Ba…

Solar System Probes for Scalar Field Dark Matter

Edmund Ghampson, Oem Trivedi, Robert J. Scherrer +1

Scalar field dark matter provides us with a well motivated alternative to conventional particle dark matter, especially when ultralight fields form coherent oscillations or compact…

Nonlinear Dynamical Regimes of Cosmological Frequency Combs

Madhurendra Mishra, Oem Trivedi, Adarsh Ganesan

We study the emergence of Cosmological Frequency Combs (CFCs) in a quintessence cosmology with an exponential potential using a dynamical systems formulation. Expressing the evolut…

Non-Markovian Memory-Induced Effects in Quantum Cosmology

Aarav Shah, Paulo Moniz, Oem Trivedi +1

We study memory effects in quantum cosmology by extending the semiclassical Wheeler-DeWitt framework beyond its usual local form. The main idea is to introduce a causal memory kern…

Testing Supersymmetric Hidden Sectors with Long-Baseline Atom Interferometers

Oem Trivedi

Atomic interferometry provides a sensitive near Earth probe of high energy physics through precision measurements of quantum phase. In this Letter, we point out that MAGIS and AION…

Solar System and Atomic Clock Bounds on Locally Coupled Swampland Scalars

Suraj Gavhale, Maxim Khlopov, Oem Trivedi +1

We study how local measurements constrain light scalar fields that are relevant in late time cosmic acceleration and are often discussed in connection with swampland criteria. Star…

Apocalypse When? Solar System Constraints on an Imminent Big Rip

Robert J. Scherrer, Oem Trivedi

Phantom dark energy models with an equation of state parameter lead generically to a future big rip singularity, in which the dark energy density becomes infinite in a fin…

Unique Gravitational-Wave Signals from Negative-Mass Binaries

Oem Trivedi, Abraham Loeb

Negative masses have long been explored, but their observational viability remains unclear. In this work, we develop a unified, observationally testable framework to constrain nega…

Smoking Gun Signatures of Quasilocal Probability in Black Hole Ringdowns

Oem Trivedi, Alfredo Gurrola, Robert J. Scherrer

Building on recent work introducing the idea of Quasilocal Probability in curved spacetime, we develop its observational implications for black hole ringdown in detail. We show tha…

Does Gravity Render Probability Quasilocal?

Oem Trivedi

We propose that probability in quantum theory, like energy in general relativity, acquires a fundamentally quasilocal character in curved spacetime. Interpreting Hermiticity as the…

Probing Dark Energy on the Moon

Alfredo Gurrola, Robert J. Scherrer, Oem Trivedi

The effective field theory (EFT) of cosmic acceleration provides a model-independent framework for describing dark energy and modified gravity, yet many of its defining operators r…

Non-Hermitian Quantum Mechanics with Applications to Gravity

Oem Trivedi, Alfredo Gurrola, Robert J. Scherrer

Hermiticity is usually treated as a foundational axiom of quantum mechanics, guaranteeing real spectra and unitary time evolution. In this work we argue that Hermiticity is more na…

Does Cosmology require Hermiticity in Quantum Mechanics?

Oem Trivedi, Alfredo Gurrola

We explore the consequences of allowing non-Hermitian structures in quantum cosmology by extending the Wheeler DeWitt framework beyond strictly Hermitian dynamics. Using a controll…

Probing the Sound Speed of Dark Energy with a Lunar Laser Interferometer

Alfredo Gurrola, Robert J. Scherrer, Oem Trivedi

The sound speed of dark energy encodes fundamental information about the microphysics underlying cosmic acceleration, yet remains essentially unconstrained by existing observations…

A Comprehensive Network for the Discovery and Characterization of Interstellar Objects

Oem Trivedi, Abraham Loeb

Interstellar object (ISO) astronomy has rapidly emerged over the past decade as a new frontier in planetary astrophysics, yet current observations remain limited by short visibilit…
