The CosmoVerse White Paper: Addressing observational tensions in cosmology with systematics and fundamental physics
Eleonora Di Valentino, Jackson Levi Said, Adam Riess +533
The standard model of cosmology has provided a good phenomenological description of a wide range of observations both at astrophysical and cosmological scales for several decades.…
Gravitational Vacuum Condensate Stars in the Effective Theory of Gravity
Emil Mottola
The low energy effective theory of gravity comprises two elements of quantum theory joined to classical general relativity. The first is the quantum conformal anomaly, which is res…
Axions and Superfluidity in Weyl Semimetals
Emil Mottola, Andrey V. Sadofyev, Andreas Stergiou
An effective field theory (EFT) for dynamical axions in Weyl semimetals (WSMs) is presented. A pseudoscalar axion excitation is predicted in WSMs at sufficiently low temperatures,…
Quantum Effects of the Conformal Anomaly in a 2D Model of Gravitational Collapse
Emil Mottola, Mani Chandra, Gian Mario Manca +1
The macroscopic effects of the quantum conformal anomaly are evaluated in a simplified two-dimensional model of gravitational collapse. The effective action and stress tensor of th…
Gravitational Vacuum Condensate Stars
Emil Mottola
Gravitational vacuum condensate stars, proposed as the endpoint of gravitational collapse consistent with quantum theory, are reviewed. Gravastars are cold, low entropy, maximally…
Report of the Topical Group on Cosmic Probes of Fundamental Physics for for Snowmass 2021
Rana X. Adhikari, Luis A. Anchordoqui, Ke Fang +118
Cosmic Probes of Fundamental Physics take two primary forms: Very high energy particles (cosmic rays, neutrinos, and gamma rays) and gravitational waves. Already today, these probe…
