Dark Matter Triggers of Supernovae
Peter W. Graham, Surjeet Rajendran, Jaime Varela
The transit of primordial black holes through a white dwarf causes localized heating around the trajectory of the black hole through dynamical friction. For sufficiently massive bl…
Vector Dark Matter from Inflationary Fluctuations
Peter W. Graham, Jeremy Mardon, Surjeet Rajendran
We calculate the production of a massive vector boson by quantum fluctuations during inflation. This gives a novel dark-matter production mechanism quite distinct from misalignment…
Cosmological Relaxation of the Electroweak Scale
Peter W. Graham, David E. Kaplan, Surjeet Rajendran
A new class of solutions to the electroweak hierarchy problem is presented that does not require either weak scale dynamics or anthropics. Dynamical evolution during the early univ…
Towards a Bullet-proof test for indirect signals of dark matter
Peter W. Graham, Surjeet Rajendran, Ken Van Tilburg +1
Merging galaxy clusters such as the Bullet Cluster provide a powerful testing ground for indirect detection of dark matter. The spatial distribution of the dark matter is both dire…
