Expanding Ejecta Method: II. Framework for Cosmological Distance Measurements via Intensity Interferometry

David Dunsky, I-Kai Chen, Junwu Huang +2

We explore the potential of the expanding ejecta method (EEM) as a cosmological probe, leveraging its ability to measure angular diameter distances to supernovae (SNe) with intensi…

Expanding Ejecta Method: I. Mapping Supernova Morphology with Intensity Interferometry

I-Kai Chen, David Dunsky, Ken Van Tilburg +2

We explore the potential of optical intensity interferometry to extract angularly resolved information from supernova explosions, introducing the "expanding ejecta method" (EEM) as…

Detecting Dark Compact Objects in Gaia DR4: A Data Analysis Pipeline for Transient Astrometric Lensing Searches

I-Kai Chen, Marius Kongsore, Ken Van Tilburg

The Gaia satellite is cataloging the astrometric properties of an unprecedented number of stars in the Milky Way with extraordinary precision. This provides a gateway for conductin…

A small weak scale from a small cosmological constant

Asimina Arvanitaki, Savas Dimopoulos, Victor Gorbenko +2

We propose a framework in which Weinberg's anthropic explanation of the cosmological constant problem also solves the hierarchy problem. The weak scale is selected by chiral dynami…

Towards a Bullet-proof test for indirect signals of dark matter

Peter W. Graham, Surjeet Rajendran, Ken Van Tilburg +1

Merging galaxy clusters such as the Bullet Cluster provide a powerful testing ground for indirect detection of dark matter. The spatial distribution of the dark matter is both dire…

Maximizing Boosted Top Identification by Minimizing N-subjettiness

Jesse Thaler, Ken Van Tilburg

N-subjettiness is a jet shape designed to identify boosted hadronic objects such as top quarks. Given N subjet axes within a jet, N-subjettiness sums the angular distances of jet c…
