Gauge-Invariant Average of Einstein Equations for finite Volumes
Juri Smirnov
For the study of cosmological backreacktion an avaragng procedure is required. In this work a covariant and gauge invariant averaging formalism for finite volumes will be developed…
Neutrino Masses and Conformal Electro-Weak Symmetry Breaking
Manfred Lindner, Steffen Schmidt, Juri Smirnov
Dimensional transmutation in classically conformal invariant theories may explain the electro-weak scale and the fact that so far nothing but the Standard Model (SM) particles have…
Regularization of Vacuum Fluctuations and Frame Dependence
Juri Smirnov
We discuss the regularization of vacuum fluctuations in a gravitational background. It is shown that general covariance is broken even by a 4-momentum cut-off, consistent with Lore…
Loopy Constraints on Leptophilic Dark Matter and Internal Bremsstrahlung
Joachim Kopp, Lisa Michaels, Juri Smirnov
A sharp and spatially extended peak in an astrophysical gamma ray spectrum would provide very strong evidence for the existence of dark matter (DM), given that there are no known a…
