Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Yoshiki Matsuoka, Masafusa Onoue, Kazushi Iwasawa, Michael A. Strauss, Nobunari Kashikawa | Summary: We present the quasar luminosity function (LF) at $z = 7$, measured with 35 spectroscopically confirmed quasars at $6.55 < z < 7.15$. The sample of 22 quasars from the Subaru High-$z$ Exploration of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Meer Ashwinkumar, Jacob M. Leedom, Masahito Yamazaki, , | Summary: We discuss interrelations between several ideas in quantum gravity. One is the Swampland program, which states that a low-energy effective field theory should satisfy non-trivial constraints to have an ultraviolet (UV) completion in quantum gravity. Another is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: Meer Ashwinkumar, Jacob M. Leedom, Masahito Yamazaki, , | Summary: We discuss the interrelations between several ideas in quantum gravity — holography, the Swampland, and the concept of ensemble averaging. To do so, we study ensemble averages of Narain-type theories associated with general even quadratic forms and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Satoshi Shirai | First 5 Authors: Katsuki Aoki, Toshifumi Noumi, Ryo Saito, Sota Sato, Satoshi Shirai | Summary: The gravitational positivity bound gives quantitative “swampland” constraints on low-energy effective theories inside theories of quantum gravity. We give a comprehensive discussion of this bound for those interested in applications to phenomenological model building. We […]

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Yuxuan He, Jia Liu, Xiaolin Ma, Xiao-Ping Wang, | Summary: We present a scalar-driven sterile neutrino production model where the interaction with the ultralight scalar field modifies the oscillation production of sterile neutrinos in the early universe. The model effectively suppresses the production of sterile neutrinos at […]
Kavli Affiliate: T. Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Belle II Collaboration, I. Adachi, K. Adamczyk, L. Aggarwal, H. Ahmed | Summary: We report a measurement of the $C!P$-violating parameters $A$ and $S$ in $B^{0}to K_{S}^{0} pi^{0}$ decays at Belle II using a sample of $387times 10^{6}$ $Bbar{B}$ events recorded in $e^{+}e^{-}$ collisions at a center-of-mass […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Yuji Tachikawa, Mayuko Yamashita, , , | Summary: Inspired by consideration in heterotic string theory, we construct a morphism of spectra from $mathrm{KO}((q))/mathrm{TMF}$ to $Sigma^{-20}I_{mathbb{Z}} mathrm{TMF}$, which we show to be an isomorphism and to implement the Anderson self-duality of $mathrm{TMF}$. We will use this to factor […]
