The Holographic QCD Axion in Five Dimensions
Csaba Csáki, Eric Kuflik, Wei Xue +1
We present a holographic construction of the QCD axion based on a warped 5D model. A key ingredient of our setup is the introduction of a bulk scalar field , which is holographi…
Collider Searches for Near-Continuum Dark Matter
Steven Ferrante, Lillian Luo, Maxim Perelstein +1
We study collider constraints on the near-continuum dark matter model, in which the dark sector consists of a tower of closely spaced states with weak-scale masses coupled to the S…
Strong CP from a Hidden Chiral Condensate
Csaba Csáki, Samuel Homiller, Taewook Youn
Models which solve the strong CP problem by employing discrete spacetime symmetries generically suffer fine-tuning and quality problems. We demonstrate that these issues are greatl…
Dynamical Up-quark Mass Generation in QCD-like theories
Csaba Csáki, Tuhin S. Roy, Maximilian Ruhdorfer +1
We calculate the dynamically generated up quark mass in some QCD-like theories with light flavors, obtained from supersymmetric QCD perturbed via anomaly mediated supersymmet…
Conformal Freeze-In from Neutrino Portal
Sungwoo Hong, Maxim Perelstein, Taewook Youn
We study a scenario where a dark sector, described by a Conformal Field Theory (CFT), interacts with the Standard Model through the neutrino portal. In this setup, conformal invari…
