Kavli Affiliate: R. G. McMahon | First 5 Authors: Dale Mudd, Paul Martini, Suk Sien Tie, Chris Lidman, Richard McMahon | Summary: We present the discovery of a z=0.65 low-ionization broad absorption line (LoBAL) quasar in a post-starburst galaxy in data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) and spectroscopy from the Australian Dark Energy Survey […]

Kavli Affiliate: E. P. S. Shellard | First 5 Authors: Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim, C. Armitage-Caplan, M. Arnaud | Summary: We describe the detection, interpretation, and removal of the signal resulting from interactions of high energy particles with the Planck High Frequency Instrument (HFI). There are two types of interactions: heating […]

Kavli Affiliate: A. C. Davis | First 5 Authors: M. Trodden, A-C. Davis, R. Brandenberger, , | Summary: We demonstrate the viability of electroweak baryogenesis scenarios in which the necessary departure from equilibrium is realized by the evolution of a network of topological defects. We consider several effective models of TeV physics, each addressing a […]
