When seeking a numerical representation of a quantum-mechanical multiparticle problem it is tempting to replace a singular short-range interaction by a smooth finite-range pseudopotential. Finite basis set expansions, e.g.~in Fock space,…

Recent explorations of the cosmic microwave background and the large-scale structure of the universe have indicated a preference for sizable neutrino self-interactions, much stronger than what the Standard Model offers. When interpreted in…
In this work we show how the inclusion of dark matter (DM) direct detection upper bounds in a theoretically consistent manner can affect the allowed parameter space of a DM model. Traditionally, the limits from DM direct detection…
In this work, we investigate how short-range correlations affect relativistic hadronic models at high densities, with direct consequences for the structure of neutron stars, both with and without dark matter content. Two versions of the…
The impact of new physics on the interactions of neutrinos with other particles can be parametrized by a set of effective four-fermion operators called non-standard neutrino interactions (NSIs). This NSI framework is useful for studying the…
We investigate few-boson systems with resonant interactions in a narrow harmonic trap within an effective theory framework. The size of the model space is identified with the effective theory cutoff. In the universal regime, the…
