Species Scale and Primordial Gravitational Waves
Marco Scalisi
The species scale is a field-dependent UV cut-off for any effective field theory weakly coupled to gravity. In this letter we show that, in the context of inflationary cosmology, a…
Primordial black holes and their gravitational-wave signatures
Eleni Bagui, Sebastien Clesse, Valerio De Luca +17
In the recent years, primordial black holes (PBHs) have emerged as one of the most interesting and hotly debated topics in cosmology. Among other possibilities, PBHs could explain…
On the correspondence between black holes, domain walls and fluxes
Niccolò Cribiori, Alessandra Gnecchi, Dieter Lust +1
We revisit and extend the correspondence between black holes, domain walls and fluxes in type IIA compactifications. We argue that these three systems can be described by the same…
Towards Early Dark Energy in String Theory
Evan McDonough, Marco Scalisi
Early Dark Energy (EDE) is a prominent model to resolve the Hubble tension, which employs a dynamical axion with a periodic potential. In this work, we take first steps towards the…
Moduli Backreaction on Inflationary Attractors
Diederik Roest, Marco Scalisi, Pelle Werkman
We investigate the interplay between moduli dynamics and inflation, focusing on the KKLT-scenario and cosmological -attractors. General couplings between these sectors can induc…
The Lyth Bound of Inflation with a Tilt
Juan Garcia-Bellido, Diederik Roest, Marco Scalisi +1
We provide strong evidence for universality of the inflationary field range: given an accurate measurement of , one can infer in a model-independent way in the sub-Pl…
