The phenomenology of Axion Relic Pockets
Wafaa Khater, M. C. David Marsh, Charalampos Nikolis
Axion relic pockets are phase-transition remnants consisting of regions of false vacuum stabilised from collapse by a hot axion gas. Axion relic pockets can comprise dark matter, b…
Gravitational waves from a dilaton-induced, first-order QCD phase transition
Aleksandr Chatrchyan, M. C. David Marsh, Charalampos Nikolis
We show that a `QCD dilaton' field, whose vacuum expectation value sets the strong coupling, can render the Quantum Chromodynamic (QCD) confinement transition first-order. The QCD…
The Renormalization Group for Large-Scale Structure: Primordial non-Gaussianities
Charalampos Nikolis, Henrique Rubira, Fabian Schmidt
The renormalization group for large-scale structure (RG-LSS) describes the evolution of galaxy bias and stochastic parameters as a function of the cutoff . In this work, we intr…
