Cosmology from weak lensing peaks and minima with Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam survey first-year data

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Gabriela A. Marques, Jia Liu, Masato Shirasaki, Leander Thiele, Daniela Grandón | Summary: We present cosmological constraints derived from peak counts, minimum counts, and the angular power spectrum of the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam first-year (HSC Y1) weak lensing shear catalog. Weak lensing peak and minimum counts contain […]

Universality of Effective Central Charge in Interface CFTs

Kavli Affiliate: Hirosi Ooguri | First 5 Authors: Andreas Karch, Yuya Kusuki, Hirosi Ooguri, Hao-Yu Sun, Mianqi Wang | Summary: When an interface connects two CFTs, the entanglement entropy between the two CFTs is determined by a quantity called the effective central charge. The effective central charge does not have a simple form in terms […]

Measurement of branching-fraction ratios and $CP$ asymmetries in $B^{pm} to D_{CPpm}K^{pm}$ decays at Belle and Belle II

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: The Belle, Belle II Collaborations, :, I. Adachi, L. Aggarwal | Summary: We report results from a study of $B^pm rightarrow DK^pm$ decays followed by $D$ decaying to $CP$~eigenstates, where $D$ indicates a $D^0$ or $bar{D}^{0}$ meson. These decays are sensitive to the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa unitarity-triangle angle $phi_{3}$. […]

Quantum Gravity Effects on Dark Matter and Gravitational Waves

Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Stephen F. King, Rishav Roshan, Xin Wang, Graham White, Masahito Yamazaki | Summary: We explore how quantum gravity effects, manifested through the breaking of discrete symmetry responsible for both Dark Matter and Domain Walls, can have observational effects through CMB observations and gravitational waves. To illustrate the […]

Tests of light-lepton universality in angular asymmetries of $B^0 to D^{*-} ell ν$ decays

Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, K. Adamczyk, L. Aggarwal, H. Aihara | Summary: We present the first comprehensive tests of light-lepton universality in the angular distributions of semileptonic Bz-meson decays to charged spin-1 charmed mesons. We measure five angular-asymmetry observables as functions of the decay recoil that […]
