Cosmic ray acceleration at perpendicular shocks in supernova remnants
Gilles Ferrand, Rebecca J. Danos, Andreas Shalchi +3
Supernova remnants (SNRs) are believed to accelerate particles up to high energies through the mechanism of diffusive shock acceleration (DSA). Except for direct plasma simulations…
Canny Algorithm: A New Estimator for Primordial Non-Gaussianities
Rebecca J. Danos, Andrew R. Frey, Yi Wang
We utilize the Canny edge detection algorithm as an estimator for primordial non-Gaussianities. In preliminary tests on simulated sky patches with a window size of 57 degrees and m…
The 21 cm Signature of Cosmic String Wakes
Robert H. Brandenberger, Rebecca J. Danos, Oscar F Hernandez +1
We discuss the signature of a cosmic string wake in 21cm redshift surveys. Since 21cm surveys probe higher redshifts than optical large-scale structure surveys, the signatures of c…
A Signature of Cosmic Strings Wakes in the CMB Polarization
Rebecca J. Danos, Robert H. Brandenberger, Gil Holder
We calculate a signature of cosmic strings in the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). We find that ionization in the wakes behind moving strings gives rise to ex…
Searching for Signatures of Cosmic Superstrings in the CMB
Rebecca J. Danos, Robert H. Brandenberger
Because cosmic superstrings generically form junctions and gauge theoretic strings typically do not, junctions may provide a signature to distinguish between cosmic superstrings an…
Warped Kaluza-Klein Dark Matter
Andrew R. Frey, Rebecca J. Danos, James M. Cline
Warped compactifications of type IIB string theory contain natural dark matter candidates: Kaluza-Klein modes along approximate isometry directions of long warped throats. These is…
