Dyonic lattices, -angles and axions in the Standard Model
Rodrigo Alonso, Francesca Chadha-Day, Despoina Dimakou +2
We investigate the implications of the Witten effect in the Standard Model with a general global gauge group structure and determine the values of the three -parameters that le…
Thermal Metastable Strings in One-Scale Models and Gravitational Waves
Arturo de Giorgi, James Ingoldby, Valentin V. Khoze +1
Metastable cosmic strings provide a cosmological interpretation of the nanohertz stochastic gravitational wave background reported by Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) experiments. We revi…
Metastable Strings and Gravitational Waves in One-Scale Models
James Ingoldby, Valentin V. Khoze, Jessica Turner
Metastable cosmic strings provide a minimal and predictive origin for the stochastic gravitational-wave background reported by Pulsar Timing Array experiments. We analyse this poss…
Monopoles at Future Neutrino Detectors
Pablo M. Candela, Valentin V. Khoze, Jessica Turner
We investigate the potential of future neutrino experiments, DUNE and Hyper-Kamiokande, to probe magnetic monopoles via Callan-Rubakov (CR) processes. We consider both relativistic…
Charge quantisation, monopoles and emergent symmetry in the Standard Model and its embeddings
Rodrigo Alonso, Despoina Dimakou, Yunji Ha +1
This work studies the connection of the global properties of the SM gauge group to 1-form discrete symmetries, the possible non-Abelian embeddings of the SM group, and electric and…
