The meso-inflationary QCD axion
Michele Redi, Andrea Tesi
We study the possibility that the axion Peccei-Quinn symmetry is spontaneously broken after the beginning of inflation. This scenario interpolates between pre-inflationary and post…
Jump Starting the Dark Sector with a Phase Transition
Michele Redi, Andrea Tesi
We study the possibility to populate the dark sector through a phase transition. We will consider secluded dark sectors made of gauge theories, Randall-Sundrum scenarios and confor…
Diamond-like carbon coatings for cryogenic operation of particle detectors
Sara Leardini, Yi Zhou, Andrea Tesi +6
Characterization of diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings at cryogenic temperatures (down to 77 K) is presented, covering the electrical resistivity range of practical interest to gas…
Dark Photon Dark Matter without Stueckelberg Mass
Michele Redi, Andrea Tesi
We study the scenario of dark photon Dark Matter where the mass is generated through the Higgs mechanism rather than the constant Stueckelberg mass. In this construction the dark s…
Dark matter self-interactions in the matter power spectrum
Raghuveer Garani, Michele Redi, Andrea Tesi
We study the imprints of secluded dark sectors with a mass gap and self-interactions on the matter power spectrum. When Dark Matter (DM) is sufficiently light, in the ballpark of a…
