Technical Proposal for the Atom Interferometer CERN Experiment (AICE) Facility
Gianluigi Arduini, Nadja Augst, Mark G. Bason +79
We present the technical proposal for the Atom Interferometer CERN Experiment (AICE), a m vertical atom interferometer to be installed against the wall of the PX…
Higgs Thermal Nonequilibrium in Primordial QGP
Cheng Tao Yang, Shelbi Foster, Johann Rafelski
In this work we investigate the chemical and kinetic nonequilibrium dynamics of the Higgs boson during the primordial Universe QGP (quark-gluon plasma) epoch $130\mathrm{\,GeV}>T>1…
Long-Baseline Atom Interferometry
Antun Balaz, Diego Blas, Oliver Buchmueller +50
Long-baseline atom interferometry is a promising technique for probing various aspects of fundamental physics, astrophysics and cosmology, including searches for ultralight dark ma…
Short Note on Spin Magnetization in QGP
Andrew Steinmetz, Johann Rafelski
We outline the theory of spin magnetization applicable to the QGP (quark-gluon plasma) epoch of the Universe. We show that a fully spin-polarized single flavor up-quark gas could g…
Higgs in The Cosmos
Johann Rafelski, Cheng Tao Yang
We explore the Higgs particle in the cosmic quark-gluon plasma (QGP) below the electroweak phase transition temperature . We show that Higgs…
Nuclear Fusion Enhancement by Heavy Nuclear Catalysts
Christopher Grayson, Johann Rafelski
We seek to understand the effect of high electron density in the proximity of a heavy nucleus on the fusion reaction rates in a hot plasma phase. We investigate quantitatively the…
