Thermal Festina Lente

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh, Nobuchika Okada, Roman Pasechnik +2

According to the Festina Lente bound, particles charged under a gauge field cannot be too light. Otherwise, the largest charged black holes of de Sitter space would discharg…

Boundedness from below in the real Weinberg three-Higgs-doublet model

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh

We study the boundedness-from-below (BFB) conditions of the quartic potential in the real Weinberg three-Higgs-doublet model (3HDM). Unlike an analysis restricted to neutral Higgs…

Noise-Induced Restoration of Entropy Concavity Near Gaussian Equilibrium

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh

We study a quantitative form of noise-induced restoration of entropy concavity for one-dimensional nonequilibrium states relaxing toward a Gaussian thermal equilibrium. A partially…

Resonantly-Enhanced Baryogenesis through Asymmetric Capture by Primordial Black Holes

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh, Xiaoyan Huo

Primordial black holes (PBHs) can generate the Baryon Asymmetry of the Universe (BAU) through asymmetric capture of baryon-charge-carrying particles, but previous realizations of t…

A Model-Independent Approach to First-Order Phase Transitions, Gravitational Waves, and Primordial Magnetic Fields

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh, Nobuchika Okada

We employ a model-independent Effective Field Theory (EFT) to analyze the possibility of a strong First-Order Phase Transition (FOPT) in extensions Beyond the Standard Model (BSM).…

Detectability of Magnetar-Induced Vacuum Birefringence with IXPE and eXTP

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh

We analyze the prospects of quantitatively detecting vacuum birefringence from magnetars using the IXPE and eXTP experiments. We adopt a realistic spatially-varying magnetic field…

Good flavor search in SU(5): a machine learning approach

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh, Shinsuke Kawai, Nobuchika Okada

We revisit the fermion mass problem of the grand unified theory using machine learning techniques. The original model proposed by Georgi and Glashow is incompatible…

Novel Bounds From The Weak Gravity and Festina Lente Conjectures

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh, Pratik Chattopadhyay, Nobuchika Okada +2

We demonstrate that the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) and the Festina-Lente Conjecture (FLC) yield novel bounds on fifth force searches and milli-Charged Particles (mCPs), as well…

Novel and Updated Bounds on Flavor-Violating Z Interactions in the Quark Sector

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh, Amine Ahriche, Suman Kumbhakar +1

We derive bounds on the flavor-violating (FV) couplings of the boson to quarks and present future sensitivity projections. Our analysis shows that the current bounds on the FV…

Aspects of Non-local QED and the Weak Gravity Conjecture

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh, Nobuchika Okada, Sudhir K. Vempati

We use the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) to investigate the impact of charge dequantization arising from non-local QED on the scale of non-locality of neutrinos. We find this scale…

Fayez Abu-Ajamieh, Nobuchika Okada, Sudhir K. Vempati

We propose a generalized formulation of the Scalar Weak Gravity Conjecture (SWGC) based on the analogy with the derivation of the Gauge Weak Gravity Conjecture (GWGC). We discuss s…
