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 hierarchy problem and the cosmological constant problem in the Standard Model

open access: yes, 2015
We argue that the SM in the Higgs phase does not suffer form a "hierarchy problem" and that similarly the "cosmological constant problem" resolves itself if we understand the SM as a low energy effective theory emerging from a cut-off medium at the ...

The cosmology of minimal varying Lambda theories

open access: yes, 2019
Inserting a varying Lambda in Einstein's field equations can be made consistent with the Bianchi identities by allowing for torsion, without the need to add scalar field degrees of freedom.

Dark radiation and superheavy dark matter from black hole domination

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
If even a relatively small number of black holes were created in the early universe, they will constitute an increasingly large fraction of the total energy density as space expands.

Modified Gravity and Dark Energy models Beyond $w(z)$CDM Testable by LSST [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
One of the main science goals of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) is to uncover the nature of cosmic acceleration. In the base analysis, possible deviations from the Lambda-Cold-Dark-Matter ($\Lambda$CDM) background evolution will be probed by ...

Augury of darkness: the low-mass dark Z ′ portal

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
Dirac fermion dark matter models with heavy Z ′ mediators are subject to stringent constraints from spin-independent direct searches and from LHC bounds, cornering them to live near the Z ′ resonance.
