Fifth-Force Screening around Extremely Compact Sources
Clare Burrage, Benjamin Elder, Peter Millington +2
Many non-linear scalar field theories possess a screening mechanism that can suppress any associated fifth force in dense environments. As a result, these theories can evade local…
enics: Vainshtein screening with the finite element method
Jonathan Braden, Clare Burrage, Benjamin Elder +1
Within the landscape of modified theories of gravity, progress in understanding the behaviour of, and developing tests for, screening mechanisms has been hindered by the complexity…
Massive Galileons and Vainshtein Screening
Clare Burrage, Ben Coltman, Antonio Padilla +2
The Vainshtein screening mechanism relies on nonlinear interaction terms becoming dominant close to a compact source. However, theories displaying this mechanism are generally unde…
How isotropic is the Universe?
Daniela Saadeh, Stephen M. Feeney, Andrew Pontzen +2
A fundamental assumption in the standard model of cosmology is that the Universe is isotropic on large scales. Breaking this assumption leads to a set of solutions to Einstein's fi…
A framework for testing isotropy with the cosmic microwave background
Daniela Saadeh, Stephen M. Feeney, Andrew Pontzen +2
We present a new framework for testing the isotropy of the Universe using cosmic microwave background data, building on the nested-sampling ANICOSMO code. Uniquely, we are able to…
Polarized thermal emission by thin metal wires
Giuseppe Bimonte, Luca Cappellin, Giovanni Carugno +2
We report new measurements of the linear polarization of thermal radiation emitted by incandescent thin tungsten wires, with thicknesses ranging from five to hundred microns. Our d…
