Improved Planck constraints on axion-like early dark energy as a resolution of the Hubble tension

Posted by dbos Cambridge

Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: George Efstathiou, Erik Rosenberg, Vivian Poulin, , | Summary: Axion-like early dark energy (EDE) as an extension to $Lambda$CDM has been proposed as a possible solution to the ‘Hubble tension’. We revisit this model using a new cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and polarization likelihood constructed from […]

Yang-Mills instantons as the end point of black hole evaporation

Posted by dbos Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Pisin Chen, Xiao Yan Chew, Misao Sasaki, Dong-han Yeom, | Summary: Non-perturbative contributions of the Euclidean path integral are important to understand the information loss paradox. In this paper, we revisit the Yang-Mills instantons in the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory. There exists a globally regular solution that is known […]
