Heuristic Estimation of the Vacuum Energy Density of the Universe: Part II-Analysis Based on Frequency Domain Electromagnetic Radiation
In Part I of this paper, an inequality satisfied by the vacuum energy density of the universe was derived using an indirect and heuristic procedure. The derivation is based on a proposed thought experiment, according to which an electron is accelerated to ...
2024Heuristic Estimation of the Vacuum Energy Density of the Universe: Part I—Analysis Based on Time Domain Electromagnetic Radiation
Marcos Rubinstein, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri
In this paper, an inequality satisfied by the vacuum energy density of the universe is derived using an indirect and heuristic procedure. The derivation is based on a proposed thought experiment, according to which an electron is accelerated to a constant ...
2023Effective field theory of the two Higgs doublet model
We revisit the effective field theory of the two Higgs doublet model at tree level. The introduction of a novel basis in the UV theory allows us to derive matching coefficients in the effective description that resum important contributions from the Higgs ...
SPRINGER2023Mode-Specific Coupling of Nanoparticle-on-Mirror Cavities with Cylindrical Vector Beams
Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Valeria Vento, Sachin Suresh Verlekar, Philippe Andreas Rölli
Nanocavities formed by ultrathin metallic gaps, such as the nanoparticle-on-mirror geometry, permit the reproducible engineering and enhancement of light-matter interaction thanks to mode volumes reaching the smallest values allowed by quantum mechanics. A ...
arXiv2023Sleptonic SUSY: from UV framework to IR phenomenology
We study an attractive scenario, "Sleptonic SUSY", which reconciles the 125 GeV Higgs scalar and the non-observation of superpartners thus far with potentially pivotal roles for slepton phenomenology: providing viable ongoing targets for LHC discovery, inc ...
SPRINGER2022Coupling metric-affine gravity to a Higgs-like scalar field
General relativity (GR) exists in different formulations. They are equivalent in pure gravity but generically lead to distinct predictions once matter is included. After a brief overview of various versions of GR, we focus on metric-affine gravity, which a ...
AMER PHYSICAL SOC2022Advanced Phenomenology for Indirect New Physics Searches
Searching indirectly for physics beyond the standard model requires careful investigation of collider data and methodological advances that are the subject of this thesis. In the first part, we develop a multivariate analysis tool to compare data with the ...
EPFL2022Preheating in Palatini Higgs inflation on the lattice
Andrey Shkerin, Inar Timiryasov, Juraj Klaric, Adrien Florio
We study preheating following Higgs inflation in the Palatini formulation of gravity. We numerically evolve perturbations of the radial mode of the Higgs field and that of three scalars modeling the gauge bosons. We compare the two non-perturbative mechani ...
