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 ...

Heuristic 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 ...

Effective field theory of the two Higgs doublet model

Timothy Cohen

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 ...

Mode-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 ...

Sleptonic SUSY: from UV framework to IR phenomenology

Majid Ekhterachian

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 ...

Coupling metric-affine gravity to a Higgs-like scalar field

Sebastian Zell

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 ...

Advanced Phenomenology for Indirect New Physics Searches

Siyu Chen

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 ...

Learning from radiation at a very high energy lepton collider

Riccardo Rattazzi, Andrea Wulzer, Alfredo Glioti, Siyu Chen, Lorenzo Ricci

We study the potential of lepton collisions with about 10 TeV center of mass energy to probe Electroweak, Higgs and Top short-distance physics at the 100 TeV scale, pointing out the interplay with the long-distance (100 GeV) phenomenon of Electroweak radia ...

Preheating 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 ...

Higgs inflation in Einstein-Cartan gravity

Andrey Shkerin, Inar Timiryasov, Sebastian Zell

We study inflation driven by the Higgs field in the Einstein-Cartan formulation of gravity. In this theory, the presence of the Holst and Nieh-Yan terms with the Higgs field non-minimally coupled to them leads to three additional coupling constants. For a ...
