Was Newtonian Cosmology Really Inconsistent? [PDF]
This paper follows up a debate as to the consistency of Newtonian cosmology. Whereas Malament (1995) has shown that Newtonian cosmology *is* not inconsistent, to date there has been no analysis of Norton’s claim (1995) that Newtonian cosmology *was ...

A spontaneously broken hidden U(1) h gauge symmetry can explain both the dark matter stability and the observed relic abundance. In this framework, the light gauge boson can mediate the strong dark matter self-interaction, which addresses astrophysical ...

BBN constraints on universally-coupled ultralight scalar dark matter
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

Dark radiation and superheavy dark matter from black hole domination
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.

COSMOLOGY AND SOCIETY: HOUSEHOLD RITUAL AMONG THE TERMINAL CLASSIC MAYA PEOPLE OF YAXHA (ca. A.D. 850-950), GUATEMALA [PDF]
This study of domestic ritual and symbolism centers on the ancient Maya kingdom of Yaxha in northeastern Guatemala, during the last part of the Classic period (A.D. 850-950/1000).

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

Traces of Extra Dimensions in Cosmology [PDF]
In this thesis, we discuss the observational consequences of extra dimensions on cosmological phenomena. We begin with an overview of extra dimensions, from the initial ideas of Kaluza and Klein to the more recent concept of braneworld models and in ...

The dynamics of cosmological scenarios inspired by quantum gravity [PDF]
PhDIn this thesis we study the dynamics of cosmological scenarios inspired by quantum gravity. Part I investigates novel features of the semi-classical regime of homogeneous and isotropic loop quantum cosmology.

On the physical basis of cosmic time [PDF]
In this manuscript we initiate a systematic examination of the physical basis for the time concept in cosmology. We discuss and defend the idea that the physical basis of the time concept is necessarily related to physical processes which could ...
