SENSEI: Search for Millicharged Particles produced in the NuMI Beam

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Crisler | First 5 Authors: Liron Barak, Itay M. Bloch, Ana M. Botti, Mariano Cababie, Gustavo Cancelo | Summary: Millicharged particles appear in several extensions of the Standard Model, but have not yet been detected. These hypothetical particles could be produced by an intense proton beam striking a fixed target. We use […]

Gravity of gluonic fluctuations and the value of the cosmological constant

Kavli Affiliate: Craig Hogan | First 5 Authors: Kris Mackewicz, Craig Hogan, , , | Summary: We analyze the classical linear gravitational effect of idealized pion-like dynamical systems, consisting of light quarks connected by attractive gluonic material with a stress-energy $p=-rho c^2$ in one or more dimensions. In one orbit of a system of total […]

Engineering cubic quantum nondemolition Hamiltonian with mesoscopic optical parametric interactions

Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Ryotatsu Yanagimoto, Rajveer Nehra, Edwin Ng, Alireza Marandi, Hideo Mabuchi | Summary: We propose a scheme to realize cubic quantum nondemolition (QND) Hamiltonian with optical parametric interactions. We show that strongly squeezed fundamental and second harmonic fields propagating in a $chi^{(2)}$ nonlinear medium effectively evolve under a […]

Resolving the muon $g-2$ tension through $Z’$-induced modifications to $σ_{mathrm{had}}$

Kavli Affiliate: Carlos E. M. Wagner | First 5 Authors: Nina M. Coyle, Carlos E. M. Wagner, , , | Summary: The QED hadronic vacuum polarization function plays an important role in the determination of precision electroweak observables and of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. These contributions have been computed from data, by […]

Single-photon decays in systems with at least one heavy quark

Kavli Affiliate: Jonathan L. Rosner | First 5 Authors: Marek Karliner, Jonathan L. Rosner, , , | Summary: Hadrons containing at least one heavy quark (charm or bottom) frequently have small enough natural widths that decay modes involving a single photon have detectable branching fractions. Photons of typical energy greater than 100 MeV have been […]

Constrain the Dark Matter Distribution of Ultra-diffuse Galaxies with Globular-Cluster Mass Segregation: A Case Study with NGC5846-UDG1

Jinning Liang, Fangzhou Jiang, Shany Danieli, Andrew Benson, Phil Hopkins | Summary: [[{“value”:”The properties of globular clusters (GCs) contain valuable information of their host galaxies and dark-matter halos. In the remarkable example of ultra-diffuse galaxy, NGC5846-UDG1, the GC population exhibits strong radial mass segregation, indicative of dynamical-friction-driven orbital decay, which opens the possibility of using […]

Imaging 3D Chemistry at 1 nm Resolution with Fused Multi-Modal Electron Tomography

Kavli Affiliate: Richard D. Robinson | First 5 Authors: Jonathan Schwartz, Zichao Wendy Di, Yi Jiang, Jason Manassa, Jacob Pietryga | Summary: Measuring the three-dimensional (3D) distribution of chemistry in nanoscale matter is a longstanding challenge for metrological science. The inelastic scattering events required for 3D chemical imaging are too rare, requiring high beam exposure […]
