Supercooled Dark Scalar Phase Transitions explanation of NANOGrav data
Francesco Costa, Jaime Hoefken Zink, Michele Lucente +2
The evidence of a Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background (SGWB) in the nHz frequency range is posed to open a new window on the Universe. A preferred explanation relies on a supe…
ELENA: a software for fast and precise computation of first order phase transitions and gravitational waves production in particle physics models
Francesco Costa, Jaime Hoefken Zink, Michele Lucente +2
We present ELENA (EvaLuator of tunnElliNg Actions), an open-source Python package designed to compute the full evolution of first-order phase transitions in the early Universe gene…
Spatial and Temporal Evaluations of the Liquid Argon Purity in ProtoDUNE-SP
DUNE Collaboration, S. Abbaslu, A. Abed Abud +1320
Liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs) rely on highly pure argon to ensure that ionization electrons produced by charged particles reach readout arrays. ProtoDUNE Single-P…
Dark Matter Interactions in White Dwarfs: A Multi-Energy Approach to Capture Mechanisms
Jaime Hoefken Zink, Shihwen Hor, Maura E. Ramirez-Quezada
White dwarfs offer a compelling avenue for probing interactions of dark matter particles, particularly in the challenging sub-GeV mass regime. The constraints derived from these ce…
