Near-infrared emission line diagnostics for AGN from the local Universe to z ∼ 3

Michaela Hirschmann

Optical rest-frame spectroscopic diagnostics are usually employed to distinguish between star formation and active galactic nucleus (AGN) powered emission. However, this method is biased against dusty sources, hampering a complete census of the AGN populat ...

Stochastic gravitational-wave background from metastable cosmic strings

Valerie Fiona Domcke

A metastable cosmic-string network is a generic consequence of many grand unified theories (GUTs) when combined with cosmic inflation. Metastable cosmic strings are not topologically stable, but decay on cosmic time scales due to pair production of GUT mon ...

Constraining dark photons and their connection to 21 cm cosmology with CMB data

Kyrylo Bondarenko

In the inhomogeneous Universe, the cosmological conversion of dark photons into ordinary photons (and vice versa) may happen at a great number of resonance redshifts. This alters the CMB observed energy spectrum and degree of small-scale anisotropies. We u ...

Inflationary perturbations with Lifshitz scaling

Sergey Sibiryakov

Instead of Lorentz invariance, gravitational degrees of freedom may obey Lifshitz scaling at high energies, as it happens in Horava's proposal for quantum gravity. We study consequences of this proposal for the spectra of primordial perturbations generated ...

Inconsistency of an inflationary sector coupled only to Einstein gravity

Daniel Garcia Figueroa

From a model-building perspective, the inflationary sector might very well have no direct couplings to other species, apart from inevitable gravitational interactions. Within the context of General Relativity, a thermal universe can still emerge after infl ...

Backreaction of electromagnetic fields and the Schwinger effect in pseudoscalar inflation magnetogenesis

Oleksandr Sobol

We study magnetogenesis in axionlike inflation driven by a pseudoscalar field phi coupled axially to the electromagnetic (EM) field (beta/M-p)phi F-mu nu(F) over tilde mu nu with dimensionless coupling constant beta. A set of equations for the inflaton fie ...

Influence of backreaction of electric fields and Schwinger effect on inflationary magnetogenesis

Oleksandr Sobol

We study the generation of electromagnetic fields during inflation when the conformal invariance of Maxwell's action is broken by the kinetic coupling f(2)(phi)F mu nu F mu nu of the electromagnetic field to the inflaton field phi We consider the case wher ...

Magnetogenesis In Natural Inflation Model

Oleksandr Sobol

We study the process of inflationary magnetogenesis in the natural single-field inflation model, whose parameters are chosen in accordance with the recent observations by the Planck collaboration [1]. The conformal invariance of the Maxwell action is broke ...

Microstructural degradation of silicon electrodes during lithiation observed via operando X-ray tomographic imaging

Alessandra Patera

Due to their high theoretical capacity compared to that of state-of-the-art graphite-based electrodes, silicon electrodes have gained much research focus for use in the development of next generation lithium-ion batteries. However, a major drawback of sili ...

On the dark radiation problem in the axiverse

Anna Tokareva

String scenarios generically predict that we live in a so called axiverse: the Universe with about a hundred of light axion species which are decoupled from the Standard Model particles. However, the axions can couple to the inflaton which leads to their p ...
