Kavli Affiliate: Tom Melia, Shigeki Matsumoto | First 5 Authors: Tsuguo Aramaki, Mirko Boezio, James Buckley, Esra Bulbul, Philip von Doetinchem | Summary: This white paper discusses the current landscape and prospects for experiments sensitive to particle dark matter processes producing photons and cosmic rays. Much of the gamma-ray sky remains unexplored on a level […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Rebecca K. Leane, Seodong Shin, Liang Yang, Govinda Adhikari, Haider Alhazmi | Summary: Intriguing signals with excesses over expected backgrounds have been observed in many astrophysical and terrestrial settings, which could potentially have a dark matter origin. Astrophysical excesses include the Galactic Center GeV gamma-ray excess detected […]

Dale and Thomas Nichols | Summary: The linear mixed effects model (LME) is a versatile modeling approach to deal […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Eric J. Baxter, Chihway Chang, Andrew Hearin, Jonathan Blazek, Lindsey E. Bleem | Summary: Cosmological data in the next decade will be characterized by high-precision, multi-wavelength measurements of thousands of square degrees of the same patches of sky. By performing multi-survey analyses that harness the correlated nature […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Shin’ichiro Ando, Sebastian Baum, Michael Boylan-Kolchin, Esra Bulbul, Michael Burgess | Summary: This whitepaper focuses on the astrophysical systematics which are encountered in dark matter searches. Oftentimes in indirect and also in direct dark matter searches, astrophysical systematics are a major limiting factor to sensitivity to dark […]
Kavli Affiliate: Tom Melia, Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Simone Alioli, Radja Boughezal, Weiguang Cao, Gauthier Durieux, Lukáš Gráf | Summary: In this contribution to the Snowmass 2021 process we review theoretical developments in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) with a focus on effects at the dimension-8 level and beyond. We review […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Vivekanand Shukla, Yang Jiao, Jung-Hoon Lee, Elsebeth Schroder, Jeffrey B. Neaton | Summary: We introduce a new, general-purpose, range-separated hybrid van der Waals density ph{functional, termed vdW-DF-ahbr,} within the non-empirical vdW-DF method [JPCM 32, 393001 (2020)]. It combines correlation from vdW-DF2 with a screened Fock exchange […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Vivekanand Shukla, Yang Jiao, Jung-Hoon Lee, Elsebeth Schroder, Jeffrey B. Neaton | Summary: We define, test, and illustrate use of a range-separated (screened) hybrid, termed vdW-DF2-ahbr and abbreviated AHBR, that uses the second-generation nonlocal-correlation formulation [PRB {bf 82}, 081101(R) (2010)] within the van der Waals density […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Emanuele Berti, Vitor Cardoso, Zoltán Haiman, Daniel E. Holz, Emil Mottola | Summary: Gravitational wave detectors are formidable tools to explore strong-field gravity, especially black holes and neutron stars. These compact objects are extraordinarily efficient at producing electromagnetic and gravitational radiation. As such, they are ideal […]
Kavli Affiliate: D. B. Macfarlane | First 5 Authors: J. A. Bagger, B. C. Barish, S. Belomestnykh, P. C. Bhat, J. E. Brau | Summary: We discuss considerations that can be used to formulate recommendations for initiating a lepton collider project that would provide precision studies of the Higgs boson and related electroweak phenomena. | […]
