This paper presents a new approach for the NA64h experiment at CERN to search for dark sector particles via invisible decays and oscillations of neutral mesons produced in charge-exchange reactions with pion and kaon beams, focusing on the accurate evaluation of the necessary cross sections to estimate the experiment's sensitivity.
This paper provides a pedagogical introduction to non-linear perturbation theory for cosmological large-scale structure, specifically developing the Effective Field Theory framework from scratch to model galaxy clustering, address the limitations of Standard Perturbation Theory, and incorporate galaxy bias and redshift-space distortions for undergraduate and beginning graduate students.
This paper demonstrates that statistical data assimilation can effectively estimate the amplitude of matter density fluctuations in solar and core-collapse supernova models by analyzing neutrino flavor evolution, with the method showing particular reliability in solar scenarios.
This paper demonstrates that extending monomial -attractor models to include binomial potentials can resolve tensions with recent CMB and DESI data by producing larger scalar spectral indices and introducing a time-dependent equation of state during reheating, thereby challenging the validity of assuming a uniquely determined reheating equation of state based solely on the monomial power.
This paper provides an overview of quark flavor physics presented at Lattice 2023, focusing on lattice-QCD inputs for determining CKM matrix parameters and reviewing selected processes used to search for physics beyond the Standard Model, while excluding topics covered in other plenary talks.
This paper demonstrates that by imposing a physically consistent renormalization condition and accounting for the required tachyonic photon mass in de Sitter space, the Schwinger current for charged fermions and scalars is finite and positive even in the massless limit, thereby resolving previous issues of negative infrared divergence and offering new insights into magnetogenesis and inflationary dark matter production.
This paper introduces BSFfast, a lightweight numerical tool that provides precomputed, tabulated effective bound-state formation cross sections for various phenomenological models, enabling efficient and rapid incorporation of complex bound-state effects into Boltzmann solvers for dark matter parameter scans.
This paper presents the first lattice QCD calculation of the irreducible Standard Model background for the decay , determining its branching fraction to be and providing a critical theoretical benchmark for future dark matter searches via radiative invisible quarkonium decays.
This paper proposes a Dark Matter-Baryon Separability condition to demonstrate how dark matter deficient galaxies serve as unique probes for constraining late-time dark matter interactions, dissipation, and halo stability, thereby complementing cosmological and laboratory studies.
This paper presents a sign-problem-free variational Monte Carlo framework using neural quantum states and gauge-covariant Gaussian fermionic corrections to determine the ground state of continuous SU(2) lattice gauge theories coupled to dynamical staggered fermions, successfully validating the method against perturbation theory and mapping the system's phase diagram.
