Gamma-ray flaring activity from the gravitationally lensed blazar PKS 1830-211 observed by Fermi LAT
The Fermi LAT Collaboration, A. A. Abdo, M. Ackermann +126
The Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope routinely detects the highly dust-absorbed, reddened, and MeV-peaked flat spectrum radio quasar PKS 1830…
Ultra-relativistic oscillon collisions
Mustafa A. Amin, Indranil Banik, Carina Nagreanu +1
In this short note we investigate the ultra-relativistic collisions of small amplitude oscillons in 1+1 dimensions. Using the amplitude of the oscillons and the inverse relativisti…
Nonperturbative Dynamics Of Reheating After Inflation: A Review
Mustafa A. Amin, Mark P. Hertzberg, David I. Kaiser +1
Our understanding of the state of the universe between the end of inflation and big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) is incomplete. The dynamics at the end of inflation are rich and a po…
Towards Chemical Constraints on Hot Jupiter Migration
Nikku Madhusudhan, Mustafa A. Amin, Grant M. Kennedy
The origin of hot Jupiters -- gas giant exoplanets orbiting very close to their host stars -- is a long-standing puzzle. Planet formation theories suggest that such planets are unl…
End of inflation, oscillons and matter-antimatter asymmetry
Kaloian D. Lozanov, Mustafa A. Amin
The dynamics at the end of inflation can generate an asymmetry between particles and anti-particles of the inflaton field. This asymmetry can be transferred to baryons via decays,…
Spectral distortions from the dissipation of tensor perturbations
Jens Chluba, Liang Dai, Daniel Grin +2
Spectral distortions of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) may become a powerful probe of primordial perturbations at small scales. Existing studies of spectral distortions focu…
