Gravitational Waves from Phase Transitions at the Electroweak Scale and Beyond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
If there was a first order phase transition in the early universe, there should be an associated stochastic background of gravitational waves. In this paper, we point out that the characteristic frequency of the spectrum due to phase transitions which ...

Gravitational waves-tomography of Low-Scale-Leptogenesis

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
A long-lived scalar field (Φ) which couples weakly to the right-handed (RH) neutrinos (N Ri ), generates small RH neutrino masses (M i ) in Low-Scale-Leptogenesis (LSL) mechanisms, despite having a large vacuum expectation value v Φ.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Thermalization effects on the dynamics of growing vacuum bubbles

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We study the evolution of growing vacuum bubbles. The bubble walls interact with the surrounding fluid and may, consequently, reach a terminal velocity.

The Origin of Cosmic Magnetic Fields

open access: yes, 2000
In this talk, I review a number of particle-physics models that lead to the creation of magnetic fields in the early universe and address the complex problem of evolving such primordial magnetic fields into the fields observed today.

Gravitational waves from the sound of a first order phase transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We report on the first three-dimensional numerical simulations of first-order phase transitions in the early Universe to include the cosmic fluid as well as the scalar field order parameter.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Gamma rays from ultracompact primordial dark matter minihalos

open access: yes, 2009
Ultracompact minihalos have recently been proposed as a new class of dark matter structure. These minihalos would be produced by phase transitions in the early Universe or features in the inflaton potential, and constitute non-baryonic massive compact ...

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

What happens when supercooling is terminated by curvature flipping of the effective potential?

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We explore the nature of a certain type of supercooled phase transition, where the supercooling is guaranteed to end due to the curvature of the finite-temperature effective potential at the origin experiencing a sign flip at some temperature.
