The Andromeda Gamma-Ray Excess: Background Systematics of the Millisecond Pulsars and Dark Matter Interpretations

Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Fabian Zimmer, Oscar Macias, Shin’ichiro Ando, Roland M. Crocker, Shunsaku Horiuchi | Summary: Since the discovery of an excess in gamma rays in the direction of M31, its cause has been unclear. Published interpretations focus on a dark matter or stellar related origin. Studies of a similar […]

Symmetries of the Primordial Sky

Kavli Affiliate: Craig Hogan | First 5 Authors: Craig Hogan, , , , | Summary: Quantum field theory, which is generally used to describe the origin of large-scale gravitational perturbations during cosmic inflation, has been shown to omit an important physical effect in curved space-time, the nonlocal entanglement among quantized modes from their gravitational effect […]
