Helical Magnetic Fields from Sphaleron Decay and Baryogenesis
Craig J. Copi, Francesc Ferrer, Tanmay Vachaspati +1
Many models of baryogenesis rely on anomalous particle physics processes to give baryon number violation. By numerically evolving the electroweak equations on a lattice, we show th…
TeV Dark Matter detection by Atmospheric Cerenkov Telescopes
Francesc Ferrer
Ground based Atmospheric Cerenkov Telescopes have recently unveiled a TeV gamma-ray signal from the direction of the Galactic Centre. We examine whether these gamma-rays, observed…
511 KeV photons from superconducting cosmic strings
Francesc Ferrer, Tanmay Vachaspati
We show that a tangle of light superconducting strings in the Milky Way could be the source of the observed 511 KeV emission from electron-positron annihilation in the Galactic bul…
Correlated isocurvature perturbations from mixed inflaton-curvaton decay
Francesc Ferrer, Syksy Rasanen, Jussi Valiviita
We study cosmological perturbations in the case that present-day matter consists of a mixture of inflaton and curvaton decay products. We calculate how the curvaton perturbations a…
Looking for dark matter annihilations in dwarf galaxies
F. Ferrer
We calculate the flux of high energy gamma-rays from annihilation of neutralino dark matter in the centre of the Milky Way and the three nearest dwarf spheroidals (Sagittarius, Dra…
