MiniBooNE, MINOS+ and IceCube data imply a baroque neutrino sector
Jiajun Liao, Danny Marfatia, Kerry Whisnant
The 4.8 anomaly in MiniBooNE data cannot be reconciled with MINOS+ and IceCube data within the vanilla framework of neutrino oscillations involving an eV-mass sterile neutrino.…
Cosmological Coleman-Weinberg Potentials and Inflation
Z. H. Liao, S. P. Miao, R. P. Woodard
We consider an additional fine-tuning problem which afflicts scalar-driven models of inflation. The problem is that successful reheating requires the inflaton be coupled to ordinar…
Breaking flavor democracy with symmetric perturbations
Tathagata Ghosh, Jiajun Liao, Danny Marfatia +1
Flavor democracy broken in the fermion mass matrix by means of small perturbations can give rise to hierarchical fermion masses. We study the breaking of the s…
Light scalar dark matter at neutrino oscillation experiments
Jiajun Liao, Danny Marfatia, Kerry Whisnant
Couplings between light scalar dark matter (DM) and neutrinos induce a perturbation to the neutrino mass matrix. If the DM oscillation period is smaller than ten minutes (or equiva…
