Lattice Simulations of Axion-U(1) Inflation

Kavli Affiliate: Eiichiro Komatsu | First 5 Authors: Angelo Caravano, Eiichiro Komatsu, Kaloian D. Lozanov, Jochen Weller, | Summary: If gauge fields are coupled to an axion field during inflation, they lead to unique observational signatures within the reach of next generation experiments. However, this system often shows strong backreaction effects, invalidating the standard perturbation […]

Lattice Simulations of Axion-U(1) Inflation

Kavli Affiliate: Eiichiro Komatsu | First 5 Authors: Angelo Caravano, Eiichiro Komatsu, Kaloian D. Lozanov, Jochen Weller, | Summary: We present the first nonlinear lattice simulation of an axion field coupled to a U(1) gauge field during inflation. We use it to fully characterize the statistics of the primordial curvature perturbation {zeta}. We find high-order […]

Quantum Simulations of Dark Sector Showers

Kavli Affiliate: Masahito Yamazaki | First 5 Authors: So Chigusa, Masahito Yamazaki, , , | Summary: We consider dark sector scenarios where dark matter is accompanied by a dark photon and multiple-flavor dark fermions charged under the dark gauge group. We study quantum interference effects in dark sector jets, where multiple dark photons are emitted […]

Inferences on relations between distant supermassive black holes and their hosts complemented by the galaxy fundamental plane

Kavli Affiliate: John Silverman | First 5 Authors: John Silverman, Junyao Li, Xuheng Ding, , | Summary: The realization of fundamental relations between supermassive black holes and their host galaxies would have profound implications in astrophysics. To add further context to studies of their co-evolution, an investigation is carried out to gain insight as to […]

Optical Atomic Clock aboard an Earth-orbiting Space Station (OACESS): Enhancing searches for physics beyond the standard model in space

Kavli Affiliate: Yevgeny Stadnik | First 5 Authors: Vladimir Schkolnik, Dmitry Budker, Oliver Fartmann, Victor Flambaum, Leo Hollberg | Summary: We present a concept for a high-precision optical atomic clock (OAC) operating on an Earth-orbiting space station. This pathfinder science mission will compare the space-based OAC with one or more ultra-stable terrestrial OACs to search […]

Conjectures on reductive homogeneous spaces

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiyuki Kobayashi | First 5 Authors: Toshiyuki Kobayashi, , , , | Summary: We address some conjectures and open problems in "analysis of symmetries" which include the study of non-commutative harmonic analysis and discontinuous groups for reductive homogeneous spaces beyond the classical framework: (1) discrete series for non-symmetric homogeneous spaces $G/H$; (2) discontinuous […]
