Dark Matter and LHC: What is the Connection?
Gordon Kane, Scott Watson
We review what can (and cannot) be learned if dark matter is detected in one or more experiments, emphasizing the importance of combining LHC data with direct, astrophysical and co…
Neutralino Dark Matter from Indirect Detection Revisited
Phill Grajek, Gordon Kane, Daniel J. Phalen +2
We revisit indirect detection possibilities for neutralino dark matter, emphasizing the complementary roles of different approaches. While thermally produced dark matter often requ…
Geometric Precipices in String Cosmology
Nemanja Kaloper, Scott Watson
We consider the effects of graviton multiplet fields on transitions between string gas phases. Focusing on the dilaton field, we show that it may obstruct transitions between diffe…
Living on a dS brane: Effects of KK modes on inflation
Claudia de Rham, Scott Watson
We develop a formalism to study non-local higher-dimensional effects in braneworld scenarios from a four-dimensional effective theory point of view and check it against the well-kn…
Cosmological Moduli Dynamics
Brian Greene, Simon Judes, Janna Levin +2
Low energy effective actions arising from string theory typically contain many scalar fields, some with a very complicated potential and others with no potential at all. The evolut…
