BBN constraints on universally-coupled ultralight scalar dark matter

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Ultralight scalar dark matter can interact with all massive Standard Model particles through a universal coupling. Such a coupling modifies the Standard Model particle masses and affects the dynamics of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. We model the cosmological

The Neutron Mean Life and Big Bang Nucleosynthesis

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
We explore the effect of neutron lifetime and its uncertainty on standard big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN). BBN describes the cosmic production of the light nuclides, 1H, D, 3H+3He, 4He, and 7Li+7Be, in the first minutes of cosmic time.

The long-standing connection of BBN and Indirect measurements: The 3He(n,p)3H reaction at Big Bang energies [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2023
Nuclear reactions play a key role in the framework of the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. A network of 12 principal reactions has been identified as the main path which drives the elemental nucleosynthesis in the first twenty minutes of the history of the ...

New worlds, new chemistry, new ceramics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ceramic Engineering &Science, Volume 3, Issue 6, Page 252-266, November 2021., 2021
Space missions have documented the chemical diversity and complexity of planets and moons in our own solar system. Astronomers have found thousands of exoplanets orbiting other stars in our galaxy, whose diversity implies immense chemical, ceramic, geological, and mineralogical complexity.

Laboratory exploration of mineral precipitates from Europa's subsurface ocean

open access: yesJournal of Applied Crystallography, Volume 54, Issue 5, Page 1455-1479, October 2021., 2021
Precipitation experiments from a model Europan ocean solution subjected to fast and slow freezing suggest that the highly hydrated Na–Mg sulfate phase Na2Mg(SO4)2·16H2O is one of the lowest‐temperature mineral phases likely to be stable on Europa's surface and may therefore be astrobiologically significant.The precipitation of hydrated phases from a ...

Big Bang Nucleosynthesis hunts chameleon dark matter

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
We study the chameleon field dark matter, dubbed scalaron, in F (R) gravity in the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) epoch. With an R 2-correction term required to solve the singularity problem for F (R) gravity, we first find that the scalaron dynamics is ...

Underground measurement at LUNA found no evidence for a low-energy resonance in the 6Li(p, γ)7Be reaction [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
The 6Li(p,γ)7Be reaction is involved in all three main nucleosynthesis scenarios: Big Bang Nucleosynthesis, the interaction of cosmic rays with interstellar matter, and stellar nucleosynthesis.

THE 2H(alpha, gamma)6LI REACTION AT LUNA AND BIG BANG NUCLEOSYNTHETIS

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2013
The 2H(α, γ)6Li reaction is the leading process for the production of 6Li in standard Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. Recent observations of lithium abundance in metal-poor halo stars suggest that there might be a 6Li plateau, similar to the well-known Spite ...

Big Bang Nucleosynthesis Constraints on f (T, TG) Gravity

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
We confront f(T,TG) gravity, with big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) requirements. The former is obtained using both the torsion scalar, as well as the teleparallel equivalent of the Gauss–Bonnet term, in the Lagrangian, resulting to modified Friedmann ...
