We investigate the production of primordial black holes and gravitational waves in composite hybrid inflation. Starting from an effective chiral Lagrangian with a dilaton and pions, we identify inflation occurring due to the walking…
This article considers three non-zero hypercharge triplets as an extension of the Standard Model Higgs doublet. Under extra $U(1)_{L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}}$ symmetry, the triplets are charged. We examine the stability of the electroweak vacuum at…
Primordial black holes (PBHs) are significant sources of axions and axion-like particles (ALPs), provided their Hawking temperature exceeds the particles' masses. Given the predominant decay of axions into photons, the enhanced photon…
We revisit higher order corrections to the Starobinsky inflationary model using the most recent P-ACT-LB-BK18 data, which exhibits a mild but definite tension with the predictions of the original model. Our results demonstrate how even…
We study the augmentation of the Standard Model (SM) with another $SU(2)$ Higgs doublet and right-handed neutrinos. The second Higgs doublet ($\Phi_2$) is defined to be odd under the $Z_2$ symmetry, and hence, the lightest stable neutral…
We propose an explanation for the recently reported ultra-high-energy neutrino signal at KM3NeT, which shows no clear association with known astrophysical sources. While decaying dark matter in the Galactic Center is a natural candidate,…
We examine Sommerfeld enhancement in dark matter annihilation as a potential origin of the halo-like gamma-ray excess near $E_\gamma \simeq 20$ GeV reported by Totani. A minimal model with a light CP-even scalar mediator naturally produces…
We present a unified framework that simultaneously addresses the dynamics of early-time cosmic inflation and late-time cosmic acceleration within the context of a single scalar field non-minimally coupled to gravity. By employing an…
We propose a novel non-singular cosmological scenario within the framework of Horndeski gravity, consisting of three successive stages: (i) a Genesis phase, in which the Universe slowly expands from an asymptotically flat spacetime; (ii) a…
Neutrino oscillation, discovered over two decades ago, confirmed that neutrinos have nonzero masses. Since then, two mass-squared differences have been measured with unprecedented precision, yet the absolute neutrino mass scale remains…
Penrose's Strong Cosmic Censorship conjecture safeguards determinism in General Relativity. Within the initial value approach to General Relativity, proof of Strong Cosmic Censorship preservation is predicated on the unique evolution of the…
We explore the production of gravitational waves (GW) resulting from a first-order phase transition (FOPT) in a non-minimally coupled `Dark Higgs Inflation' model. Utilizing a dark sector scalar field as the inflaton, we demonstrate how…
Non-perturbative gravitational effects induce explicit global symmetry breaking terms within axion models. These exponentially suppressed terms in the potential give a mass contribution to the axion-like particles (ALPs). In this work we…
We examine the quasinormal modes exhibited by a massive scalar test field carrying an electric charge, oscillating in the outer region of a Reissner-Nordstr\"om de Sitter black hole. We examine the quasinormal mode effective potential…
We propose a novel framework based on neural network that reformulates classical mechanics as an operator learning problem. A machine directly maps a potential function to its corresponding trajectory in phase space without solving the…
We employ the effective field theory approach to analyze the characteristics of Euclidean wormholes within axion theories. Using this approach, we obtain non-perturbative instantons in various complex scalar models with and without a…
We investigate the possibility that inflation originates from a composite field theory, in terms of an effective chiral Lagrangian involving a dilaton and pions. The walking dynamics of the theory constrain the potential in a specific way,…
We study the kinetic mixing between the cosmic microwave background (CMB) photon and the birefringent dark photon. These birefringent dark photon may exist in parity-violating dark sector, for example, through the coupling to axion field.…
Higgs inflation with a Gauss-Bonnet term is studied in the Einstein frame. Our model features two coupling functions, $\Omega^2(\phi)$ and $\omega(\phi)$, coupled to the Ricci scalar and Gauss-Bonnet combinations. We found a special…
We introduce DeeLeMa, a deep learning-based network for the analysis of energy and momentum in high-energy particle collisions. This novel approach is specifically designed to address the challenge of analyzing collision events with…
