Technically Natural Baryogenesis with the QCD Axion
Pouya Asadi, David Cyncynates, Stefania Gori
The strong CP problem, dark matter, and the observed baryon abundance may all be connected dynamically through the QCD axion, though whether this connection is realized in Nature d…

Exploring Invisible New Physics with Exotic Pion Decays
Wolfgang Altmannshofer, Jeff A. Dror, Pierce Giffin +5
We study the sensitivity of past and future stopped-pion experiments to light, invisible dark sector particles produced in exotic pion decays. We consider two-body decays involving…

Axiverse Baryogenesis
Pouya Asadi, David Cyncynates, Stefania Gori
The QCD axion may offer a unified origin for the baryon asymmetry and dark matter through axiogenesis. However, in the minimal QCD axion scenario, axiogenesis either underproduces…
