Baryogenesis, Dark Matter, and Flavor Structure in Non-thermal Moduli Cosmology
Mu-Chun Chen, Volodymyr Takhistov
The appearance of scalar/moduli fields in the early universe, as motivated by string theory, naturally leads to non-thermal "moduli cosmology". Such cosmology provides a consistent…
Geoneutrinos in Large Direct Detection Experiments
Graciela B. Gelmini, Volodymyr Takhistov, Samuel J. Witte
Geoneutrinos can provide a unique insight into Earth's interior, its central engine and its formation history. We study the detection of geoneutrinos in large direct detection expe…
Dinucleon and Nucleon Decay to Two-Body Final States with no Hadrons in Super-Kamiokande
Kamiokande Collaboration, S. Sussman, K. Abe +167
Using 0.37 megatonyears of exposure from the Super-Kamiokande detector, we search for 10 dinucleon and nucleon decay modes that have a two-body final state with no hadrons.…
Positrons and 511 keV radiation as tracers of recent binary neutron star mergers
George M. Fuller, Alexander Kusenko, David Radice +1
Neutron-rich material ejected from neutron star-neutron star (NS-NS) and neutron star-black hole (NS-BH) binary mergers is heated by nuclear processes to temperatures of a few hund…
Primordial Black Holes and the String Swampland
Masahiro Kawasaki, Volodymyr Takhistov
The "swampland conjectures" have been recently suggested as a set of criteria to assess if effective field theories (EFTs) are consistent with a quantum gravity embedding. Such cri…
Hyper-Kamiokande Design Report
Hyper-Kamiokande Proto-Collaboration, :, K. Abe +313
On the strength of a double Nobel prize winning experiment (Super)Kamiokande and an extremely successful long baseline neutrino programme, the third generation Water Cherenkov dete…
Casting a Wide Signal Net with Future Direct Dark Matter Detection Experiments
Graciela B. Gelmini, Volodymyr Takhistov, Samuel J. Witte
As dark matter (DM) direct detection experiments continue to improve their sensitivity they will inevitably encounter an irreducible background arising from coherent neutrino scatt…
Search for Neutrinos in Super-Kamiokande associated with the GW170817 neutron-star merger
K. Abe, C. Bronner, Y. Hayato +160
We report the results of a neutrino search in Super-Kamiokande for coincident signals with the first detected gravitational wave produced by a binary neutron star merger, GW170817,…
Primordial Black Holes from Inflaton Fragmentation into Oscillons
Eric Cotner, Alexander Kusenko, Volodymyr Takhistov
We show that fragmentation of the inflaton into long-lived spatially localized oscillon configurations can lead to copious production of black holes. In a single-field inflation mo…
