Moving a Detector to Probe New Neutrino Interactions: IWCD at Hyper-Kamiokande
Thomas Schwemberger, Volodymyr Takhistov
Moving a detector through a beam with a spatially varying energy spectrum exposes the same target and apparatus to distinct incident spectra, enabling interaction spectroscopy. Whi…
Oscillation-Independent Probes of Neutrino Non-Standard Interactions from Supernovae
Angela R. Beatty, Anna M. Suliga, Volodymyr Takhistov
Extreme astrophysical environments provide unique laboratories for testing fundamental neutrino interactions. We present the first oscillation-independent astrophysical probe of no…
Halo-Independent Quantum Sensor Probes of Low-Velocity Dark Matter
Muping Chen, Graciela B. Gelmini, Volodymyr Takhistov +1
We present a halo-independent framework for sub-GeV dark matter (DM) direct detection using quantum sensors with sub-eV energy thresholds. Such detectors enable access to low DM ve…
Universal Suppression of Gravitational Waves from Black Hole Evaporation Dynamics
Xin-Chen He, Xiao-Han Ma, Misao Sasaki +1
Evaporating black holes can leave distinct imprints on gravitational wave (GW) backgrounds. We show that black hole populations with finite width mass distributions exhibit a unive…
Echoes of Nucleon Decay from Long-Lived Particles
Patrick Adolf, Chandan Hati, Martin Hirsch +1
Nucleon decay searches provide uniquely sensitive probes of baryon number violation and physics beyond the Standard Model. We propose a new class of nucleon decay observables invol…
Casimir Geometry as a Probe of Short Range Forces
Xiaolin Ma, Volodymyr Takhistov, Hideo Iizuka
Casimir force searches provide among the most sensitive laboratory probes of new short range interactions. Existing constraints rely almost exclusively on a single geometry. We sho…
