Trapping Effect for QCD Axion Dark Matter

Shota Nakagawa, Fuminobu Takahashi, Masaki Yamada

In the early universe, the potential of a scalar field can be significantly modified, and the scalar field may be trapped for a long time in a different location than the current v…

Wash-In Leptogenesis

Valerie Domcke, Kohei Kamada, Kyohei Mukaida +2

We present a leptogenesis mechanism based on the standard type-I seesaw model that successfully operates at right-handed-neutrino masses as low as a few 100 TeV. This mechanism, wh…

Gravitational Waves and Dark Radiation from Dark Phase Transition: Connecting NANOGrav Pulsar Timing Data and Hubble Tension

Yuichiro Nakai, Motoo Suzuki, Fuminobu Takahashi +1

Recent pulsar timing data reported by the NANOGrav collaboration may indicate the existence of a stochastic gravitational wave background around Hz. We explore a p…

What if ALP dark matter for the XENON1T excess is the inflaton

Fuminobu Takahashi, Masaki Yamada, Wen Yin

The recent XENON1T excess in the electron recoil data can be explained by anomaly-free axion-like particle (ALP) dark matter with mass keV and the decay constan…

XENON1T excess from anomaly-free ALP dark matter and its implications for stellar cooling anomaly

Fuminobu Takahashi, Masaki Yamada, Wen Yin

Recently, an anomalous excess was found in the electronic recoil data collected at the XENON1T experiment. The excess may be explained by an axion-like particle (ALP) with mass of…

Spontaneous Baryogenesis from Axions with Generic Couplings

Valerie Domcke, Yohei Ema, Kyohei Mukaida +1

Axion-like particles can source the baryon asymmetry of our Universe through spontaneous baryogenesis. Here we clarify that this is a generic outcome for essentially any coupling o…

Strongly-interacting massive particle and dark photon in the era of intensity frontier

Ayuki Kamada, Masaki Yamada, Tsutomu T. Yanagida

A strongly interacting massive particle (SIMP) is an interesting candidate for dark matter (DM) because its self-interaction cross section can be naturally strong enough to address…

Spherically Symmetric Scalar Hair for Charged Black Holes

Jeong-Pyong Hong, Motoo Suzuki, Masaki Yamada

The no-hair theorem by Mayo and Bekenstein states that there exists no non-extremal static and spherical charged black hole endowed with hair in the form of a charged scalar field…
