The gravitational wave signal GW150914, recently detected by LIGO and Virgo collaborations, is used to place a bound on the scale of quantum fuzziness of non-commutative space-time. We show that the leading non-commutative correction to the…

We investigate the potential to detect low-frequency gravitational waves (GWs) through their imprints on the proper motions of distant quasars observed by the Gaia mission. Using astrometric data from Gaia DR3, we simulate the effect of GWs…

The left-right symmetric model (LRSM) is a well-motivated framework to restore parity and implement seesaw mechanisms for the tiny neutrino masses at or above the TeV-scale, and has a very rich phenomenology at both the high-energy and…
