Precise gamma-ray emissivities from cosmic-ray interactions with interstellar gas have been recently derived using Fermi-LAT data, and used to constrain the local interstellar spectra of protons and leptons. We report on a continuing effort…
We search for a direction in the sky that exhibits parity symmetry under reflections through a plane. We use the natural estimator, which compares the power in even and odd $\ell+m$ multipoles, and apply minimal blind masking of outliers to…
The spectral data on the diffuse Galactic gamma-rays, at medium and high latitudes (|b| > 10) and energies of 1-100 GeV, recently published by the Fermi Collaboration are used to produce a novel study on the gamma-ray emissivity in the…
Oscillations between photons and axion-like particles (ALP) travelling in intergalactic magnetic fields have been invoked to explain a number of astrophysical phenomena, or used to constrain ALP properties using observations. One example is…
The intergalactic magnetic field (IGMF) may leave an imprint on the angular anisotropy of the extragalactic gamma-ray background through its effect on electromagnetic cascades triggered by interactions between very high energy photons and…
We study the inflationary generation of helical cosmological magnetic fields in a higher-dimensional generalization of the electromagnetic theory. For this purpose, we also include a parity breaking piece to the electromagnetic action. The…
Parity-odd domains, corresponding to non-trivial topological solutions of the QCD vacuum, might be created in relativistic heavy ions collisions. These domains are predicted to lead to charge separation along the system orbital momentum of…
The strength of parity violation effect can be characterized by correlator value in the framework of local $\mathcal{TIP}$ hypothesis. The energy and centrality dependencies of correlators for same and opposite charges are discussed for…
We study the effect of a possible helicity component of a primordial magnetic field on the tensor part of the cosmic microwave background temperature anisotropies and polarization. We give analytical approximations for the tensor…
We have studied the intensity correlations between two orthogonally linearly polarized components of a laser field propagating through a resonant atomic medium. These experiments have been performed in a Rubidium atomic vapor. We observe…
Pseudoscalar or pseudovector cosmic fields, that serve as a source of parity ($\mathcal{P}$) violation, are invoked in different models for cold dark matter or in the standard model extension that allows for Lorentz invariance violation. A…
We extend a previous analysis of spatial correlation functions for classical electromagnetic vector fields near a perfectly conducting boundary [PRE, vol. 73, 036604 (2006)] to the case of an isotropic semi-infinite medium with planar…
A non-Hermitian form of QED is presented which describes interacting Dirac monopoles. The theory is related by a canonical transformation to a model proposed by Milton. As in Hermitian QED an abelian gauge potential is coupled to a…
We explain the large scale correlations in radio polarization in terms of the correlations of galaxy cluster/supercluster magnetic field. Assuming that the polarization correlations closely follow the spatial correlations of the background…
We describe a first attempt to derive properties of the regular and turbulent Galactic magnetic field from multi-frequency polarimetric observations of the diffuse Galactic synchrotron background. A single-cell-size model of the thin…
The existence of intergalactic magnetic fields (IGMF) has so far not been established through observations. The IGMF is expected to be generated either via processes mainly connected to astrophysical processes or it could be a relic of…
We study the effect of large scale tangled magnetic fields on the galaxy two-point correlation function in the redshift space. We show that (a) the magnetic field effects can be comparable the gravity-induced clustering for present magnetic…
We search for observational signatures of magnetic helicity in data from all-sky radio polarization surveys of the Milky Way Galaxy. Such a detection would help confirm the dynamo origin of the field and may provide new observational…
We explore the magnetic properties of a two-dimensional Hubbard model on an inhomogeneous square lattice, which provides a platform for tuning the bandwidth of the flat band. In its limit, this inhomogeneous square lattice turns into a Lieb…
We made a detailed study of the properties of the electron layer near the quark surface of strange stars with strong ($\sim 10^{14}-10^{17}$G) magnetic fields. The electrostatic potential and the electric field at the quark surface were…
