Probing Early Universe Supercooled Phase Transitions with Gravitational Wave Data
Charles Badger, Bartosz Fornal, Katarina Martinovic +8
We investigate the reach of the LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA detectors in the search for signatures of first-order phase transitions in the early Universe. Utilising data from the first three…
Gravitational Waves from Mini-Split SUSY
Bartosz Fornal, Barmak Shams Es Haghi, Jiang-Hao Yu +1
We show that color-breaking vacua may develop at high temperature in the Mini-Split Supersymmetry (SUSY) scenario. This can lead to a nontrivial cosmological history of the Univers…
Implications for First-Order Cosmological Phase Transitions from the Third LIGO-Virgo Observing Run
Alba Romero, Katarina Martinovic, Thomas A. Callister +5
We place constraints on the normalized energy density in gravitational waves from first-order strong phase transitions using data from Advanced LIGO and Virgo's first, second and t…
Baryonic and Leptonic GeV Dark Matter
Bartosz Fornal, Alec Hewitt, Yue Zhao
We perform a systematic analysis of models with GeV-scale dark matter coupled to baryons and leptons. Such theories provide a natural framework to explain the matter-antimatter asy…
Boosted Dark Matter Interpretation of the XENON1T Excess
Bartosz Fornal, Pearl Sandick, Jing Shu +2
We propose boosted dark matter (BDM) as a possible explanation for the excess of keV electron recoil events observed by XENON1T. BDM particles have velocities much larger than thos…
Dark Matter Capture by Atomic Nuclei
Bartosz Fornal, Benjamin Grinstein, Yue Zhao
We propose a new strategy to search for a particular type of dark matter via nuclear capture. If the dark matter particle carries baryon number, as motivated by a class of theoreti…
