Cosmic dissonance: are new physics or systematics behind a short sound horizon?
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2020 Context. Persistent tension between low-redshift observations and the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB), in terms of two fundamental distance scales set by the sound horizon rd and the Hubble constant H0, suggests new physics beyond the ...

Metastable cosmic strings [PDF]
Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2023 Many symmetry breaking patterns in grand unified theories (GUTs) give rise to cosmic strings that eventually decay when pairs of GUT monopoles spontaneously nucleate along the string cores.

Particle physics in cosmic rays [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2021 The Pierre Auger Observatory is the world’s largest detector of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). It uses an array of fluorescence telescopes and particle detectors at the ground to obtain detailed measurements of the energy spectrum, mass composition and arrival directions of primary cosmic rays (above the energy of [Formula: see text] eV) with

Room for New Physics in the Rayleigh-Jeans Tail of the Cosmic Microwave Background. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2018 We show that, despite stringent constraints on the shape of the main part of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) spectrum, there is considerable room for its modification within its Rayleigh-Jeans (RJ) end, ω≪T_{CMB}.

Future CMB constraints on cosmic birefringence and implications for fundamental physics [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2019 The primary scientific target of the CMB polarization experiments that are currently being built and proposed is the detection of primordial tensor perturbations.

DES Y3 cosmic shear down to small scales: Constraints on cosmology and baryons [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2023 We present the first analysis of cosmic shear measured in DES Y3 that employs the entire range of angular scales in the data. To achieve this, we build upon recent advances in the theoretical modelling of weak lensing provided by a combination of $N ...

Cosmic ray feedback in galaxies and galaxy clusters [PDF]
The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2023 Understanding the physical mechanisms that control galaxy formation is a fundamental challenge in contemporary astrophysics. Recent advances in the field of astrophysical feedback strongly suggest that cosmic rays (CRs) may be crucially important for our

Disentangling dark physics with cosmic microwave background experiments [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2018 We forecast constraints on dark matter (DM) scattering with baryons in the early Universe with upcoming and future cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments, for DM particle masses down to 15 keV.

Seven Hints That Early-Time New Physics Alone Is Not Sufficient to Solve the Hubble Tension [PDF]
Universe, 2023 The Hubble tension has now grown to a level of significance which can no longer be ignored and calls for a solution which, despite a huge number of attempts, has so far eluded us.
