Cosmological axion and neutrino mass constraints from Planck 2015 temperature and polarization data

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2016
Axions currently provide the most compelling solution to the strong CP problem. These particles may be copiously produced in the early universe, including via thermal processes.

Expanding Culturomics from Gut to Extreme Environmental Settings

open access: yesmSystems, 2021
With the advent of metagenomics, a quest began to identify the dynamics of the microbial communities in different ecological niches. Altogether, this has resulted in identification of microorganisms but is limited to only a small number of phylogenetic ...

Cosmological Simulation for Fuzzy Dark Matter Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019
Fuzzy Dark Matter (FDM), motivated by string theory, has recently become a hot candidate for dark matter. The rest mass of FDM is believed to be ~10−22eV and the corresponding de-Broglie wave length is ~1kpc. Therefore, the quantum effect of FDM plays an

Massive Dark Photons as Hot Dark Matter

open access: yesActa Physica Polonica B, 2022
Motivated by the growing interest in the existence of new massive gauge bosons, we suggest that massive dark photons A0 can be a consequence of a broken new abelian symmetry U(1)'X. Such a dark symmetry U(1)'D is afterwards supposed to be associated with the conservation of the weak number W belonging to the Weakling Interacting Slim Particles U(1)'W ...

Violation of universal lower bound for the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio in dark energy dominated accretion

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019
The universal lower bound of the ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density is suggested by the string theory and gauge duality for any matter. We examined the ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density for viscous accretion flow towards a central ...

Squeezing the Axion

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2021
We apply the squeezed state formalism to scalar field dark matter (e.g. axion) perturbations generated during inflation. As for the inflationary perturbations, the scalar field state becomes highly squeezed as modes exit the horizon. For as long as $H>m_\

Sterile neutrino dark matter in left-right theories

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
SU(2) L × SU(2) R gauge symmetry requires three right-handed neutrinos (N i ), one of which, N 1, can be sufficiently stable to be dark matter. In the early universe, W R exchange with the Standard Model thermal bath keeps the right-handed neutrinos in ...

Sterile neutrino hot, warm, and cold dark matter [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2001
We calculate the incoherent resonant and non-resonant scattering production of sterile neutrinos in the early universe. We find ranges of sterile neutrino masses, vacuum mixing angles, and initial lepton numbers which allow these species to constitute viable hot, warm, and cold dark matter (HDM, WDM, CDM) candidates which meet observational constraints.

Cosmological Effects of Quantum Vacuum Condensates

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
In quantum field theory, many phenomena are characterized by a condensed structure of their vacua. Such a structure is responsible of a non trivial vacuum energy. Here we analyze disparate systems and we show that the thermal vacuum state for hot plasmas,
