Investigation of CMB constraints for dark matter-helium scattering

Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Kimberly K. Boddy, Gordan Krnjaic, Stacie Moltner, , | Summary: We study dark matter-helium scattering in the early Universe and its impact on constraints from cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy measurements. We describe possible theoretical frameworks for dark matter-nucleon interactions via a scalar, pseudoscalar, or vector mediator; […]

Infrared Finite Scattering Theory in Quantum Field Theory and Quantum Gravity

Kavli Affiliate: Robert M. Wald | First 5 Authors: Kartik Prabhu, Gautam Satishchandran, Robert M. Wald, , | Summary: Infrared (IR) divergences arise in scattering theory with massless fields and are manifestations of the memory effect. There is nothing singular about states with memory, but they do not lie in the standard Fock space. IR […]
