Nonlinear tails in the Kerr black hole ringdown

Siyang Ling, Sam S. C. Wong

Power law tails induced by nonlinearities of General Relativity (``sourced'' or ``nonlinear'' tails) were recently shown to dominate the late time waveform of Schwarzschild black h…

Superheavy Dark Matter from the String Theory Axiverse

Siyang Ling, Andrew J. Long, Evan McDonough +1

We propose heavy axions as a natural superheavy dark matter candidate in string theory, with the relic density of dark matter originating in quantum fluctuations during cosmic infl…

Free Streaming in Warm Wave Dark Matter

Siyang Ling, Mustafa A. Amin

We provide a framework for numerically computing the effects of free-streaming in scalar fields produced after inflation. First, we provide a detailed prescription for setting up i…

Phenomenology of wavelike vector dark matter nonminimally coupled to gravity

Hong-Yi Zhang, Siyang Ling

We study three astrophysical/cosmological consequences of nonminimal couplings to gravity in wavelike vector dark matter. In the nonrelativistic limit, the nonminimal coupling with…

Cosmological gravitational particle production of massive spin-2 particles

Edward W. Kolb, Siyang Ling, Andrew J. Long +1

The phenomenon of cosmological gravitational particle production (CGPP) is expected to occur during the period of inflation and the transition into a hot big bang cosmology. Partic…

An analytic evaluation of gravitational particle production of fermions via Stokes phenomenon

Soichiro Hashiba, Siyang Ling, Andrew J. Long

The phenomenon of gravitational particle production can take place for quantum fields in curved spacetime. The abundance and energy spectrum of gravitationally produced particles i…

Superheavy scalar dark matter from gravitational particle production in -attractor models of inflation

Siyang Ling, Andrew J. Long

We study the phenomenon of gravitational particle production as applied to a scalar spectator field in the context of -attractor inflation. Assuming that the scalar has a minima…
