Direct Detection of Ultralight Dark Matter via Charged Lepton Flavor Violation

Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Innes Bigaran, Patrick J. Fox, Yann Gouttenoire, Roni Harnik, Gordan Krnjaic | Summary: We propose a dark matter direct-detection strategy using charged particle decays at accelerator-based experiments. If ultralight $(m_phi ll text{eV})$ dark matter has a misalignment abundance, its local field oscillates in time at a frequency […]

Searching for Exotic Interactions between Antimatter

Kavli Affiliate: Yevgeny V. Stadnik | First 5 Authors: Lei Cong, Filip Ficek, Pavel Fadeev, Yevgeny V. Stadnik, Dmitry Budker | Summary: We show that atomic antimatter spectroscopy can be used to search for new bosons that carry spin-dependent exotic forces between antifermions. A comparison of a recent precise measurement of the hyperfine splitting of […]

$K$-theoretic pullbacks for Lagrangians on derived critical loci

Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Yalong Cao, Yukinobu Toda, Gufang Zhao, , | Summary: Given a regular function $phi$ on a smooth stack, and a $(-1)$-shifted Lagrangian $M$ on the derived critical locus of $phi$, under fairly general hypotheses, we construct a pullback map from the Grothendieck group of coherent matrix factorizations […]

Illuminating the Physics of Dark Energy with the Discovery Simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Katrin Heitmann | First 5 Authors: Gillian D. Beltz-Mohrmann, Adrian Pope, Alex Alarcon, Michael Buehlmann, Nicholas Frontiere | Summary: In this paper, we present the Discovery simulations: a new pair of high-resolution N-body simulations motivated by the DESI Y1 BAO cosmological constraints on dark energy. The Discovery simulations were run with identical initial […]

Little Red Dots as the Very First Activity of Black Hole Growth

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Kohei Inayoshi, Kohei Inayoshi, , , | Summary: The James Webb Space Telescope has detected massive black holes (BHs) with masses of $sim 10^6-8~M_odot$ within the first billion years of the universe. One of the remarkable findings is the identification of "Little Red Dots" (LRDs), a unique […]
