Comment on "Pulsar kicks via spin-1 color superconductivity"
Alexander Kusenko
In a recent paper, Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 211101 (2005) [hep-ph/0502166], Schmitt et al. have proposed a new mechanism to explain the observed velocities of pulsars. The proposed exp…
CP violation and cosmology
Alexander Kusenko
Microscopic CP violation has profound cosmological consequences. In particular, it is related to the baryon asymmetry of the universe. A successful baryogenesis requires new source…
Baryogenesis in the wake of inflation
Alexander Kusenko
Electroweak baryogenesis could be very efficient at the end of an electroweak-scale inflation. Reheating that followed inflation could create a highly non-equilibrium plasma, in wh…
Baryonic Q-balls as dark matter
Alexander Kusenko
Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of Q-balls, some of which can be entirely stable. Affleck-Dine baryogenesis can result in a copious production…
Superball dark matter
Alexander Kusenko
Supersymmetric models predict a natural dark-matter candidate, stable baryonic Q-balls. They could be copiously produced in the early Universe as a by-product of the Affleck-Dine b…
Supersymmetric Q-balls: theory and cosmology
Alexander Kusenko
MSSM predicts the existence of Q-balls, some of which can be entirely stable. Both stable and unstable Q-balls can play an important role in cosmology. In particular, Affleck-Dine…
