A note on supersymmetric Yang-Mills thermodynamics [PDF]
The thermodynamics of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories is studied by computing the two-loop correction to the canonical free energy and to the equation of state for theories with 16, 8 and 4 supercharges in any dimension $4\leq d\leq 10$, and in two ...

Emergence and Correspondence for String Theory Black Holes [PDF]
This is one of a pair of papers that give a historical-\emph{cum}-philosophical analysis of the endeavour to understand black hole entropy as a statistical mechanical entropy obtained by counting string-theoretic microstates.

Effective Field Theories and Inflation [PDF]
We investigate the possible influence of very-high-energy physics on inflationary predictions focussing on whether effective field theories can allow effects which are parametrically larger than order H^2/M^2, where M is the scale of heavy physics and H ...

Hard Scattering and Gauge/String Duality [PDF]
We consider high-energy fixed-angle scattering of glueballs in confining gauge theories that have supergravity duals. Although the effective description is in terms of the scattering of strings, we find that the amplitudes are hard (power law). This is a

Unconstrained ${\cal N}=2$ higher-spin gauge superfields and their hypermultiplet couplings
In recent papers arXiv:2109.07639 [hep-th] and arXiv:2202.08196 [hep-th], we constructed free off-shell $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric higher spin gauge theories in harmonic superspace and their cubic couplings to hypermultiplet.

A Hybrid Strong/Weak Coupling Approach to Jet Quenching [PDF]
We propose and explore a new hybrid approach to jet quenching in a strongly coupled medium. The basis of this phenomenological approach is to treat physics processes at different energy scales differently. The high-$Q^2$ processes associated with the QCD

Accelerating universe emergent from the landscape [PDF]
We propose that the existence of the string landscape suggests the universe can be in a quantum glass state, where an extremely large viscosity is generated, and long distance dynamics slows down.

Beyond the Cosmological Standard Model [PDF]
After a decade and a half of research motivated by the accelerating universe, theory and experiment have a reached a certain level of maturity. The development of theoretical models beyond \Lambda, or smooth dark energy, often called modified gravity ...

Holographic zero sound at finite temperature in the Sakai-Sugimoto model [PDF]
In this paper, we study the fate of the holographic zero sound mode at finite temperature and non-zero baryon density in the deconfined phase of the Sakai-Sugimoto model of holographic QCD.

On a Missed Mechanism of Dielectron Production in Nucleon-Nucleon Collisions
We examine a new mechanism of $e^+e^-$ pair production in $NN$ collisions associated with the $NN$-decoupled dibaryon $d^\star_1$(1956) formation in the process $NN \to \gamma^\star d^\star_1$, where $\gamma^\star$ is the virtual photon which converts ...
