Fingerprinting Dark Energy III: distinctive marks of viscosity [PDF]
, 2012 The characterisation of dark energy is one of the primary goals in cosmology especially now that many new experiments are being planned with the aim of reaching a high sensitivity on cosmological parameters.

DaMaSCUS: The Impact of Underground Scatterings on Direct Detection of Light Dark Matter [PDF]
, 2017 Conventional dark matter direct detection experiments set stringent constraints on dark matter by looking for elastic scattering events between dark matter particles and nuclei in underground detectors.

Transmon Qubit constraints on dark matter-nucleon scattering
Journal of High Energy PhysicsWe recently pointed out that power measurements of single quasiparticle devices can be used to detect dark matter. These devices have the lowest known energy thresholds, far surpassing standard direct detection experiments, requiring energy deposition ...

Supersymmetry with Light Dark Matter confronting the recent CDMS and LHC Results
, 2013 We revisit MSSM scenarios with light neutralino as a dark matter candidate in view of the latest LHC and dark matter direct and indirect detection experiments. We show that scenarios with a very light neutralino (~ 10 GeV) and a scalar bottom quark close

Dark tridents at off-axis liquid argon neutrino detectors
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We present dark tridents, a new channel for exploring dark sectors in short-baseline neutrino experiments. Dark tridents are clean, distinct events where, like neutrino tridents, the scattering of a very weakly coupled particle leads to the production of

Inelastic Dark Matter at the LHC Lifetime Frontier: ATLAS, CMS, LHCb, CODEX-b, FASER, and MATHUSLA
, 2018 Visible signals from the decays of light long-lived hidden sector particles have been extensively searched for at beam dump, fixed-target, and collider experiments.

Nontrivial Geometries: Bounds on the Curvature of the Universe [PDF]
, 2007 Probing the geometry of the universe is one of the most important endevours in cosmology. Current observational data from the Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropy (CMB), galaxy surveys and type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) strongly constrain the curvature of

Screened Scalar Fields in the Laboratory and the Solar System
UniverseThe last few decades have provided abundant evidence for physics beyond the two standard models of particle physics and cosmology. As is now known, the by far largest part of our universe’s matter/energy content lies in the ‘dark’, and consists of dark ...

Annihilation vs. Decay: Constraining dark matter properties from a gamma-ray detection
, 2010 Most proposed dark matter candidates are stable and are produced thermally in the early Universe. However, there is also the possibility of unstable (but long-lived) dark matter, produced thermally or otherwise.
