From starburst to quenching: merger-driven evolution of the star formation regimes in a shell galaxy

Jonathan Erik Peter Petersson

Shell galaxies make a class of tidally distorted galaxies, characterized by wide concentric arc(s), extending out to large galactocentric distances with sharp outer edges. Recent observations of young massive star clusters in the prominent outer shell of N ...

Relic Gravitational Waves from the Chiral Magnetic Effect

Salim Bennouna

Relic gravitational waves (GWs) can be produced by primordial magnetic fields. However, not much is known about the resulting GW amplitudes and their dependence on the details of the generation mechanism. Here we treat magnetic field generation through the ...

Einstein-Cartan Portal to Dark Matter

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Inar Timiryasov, Andrey Shkerin, Sebastian Zell

It is well known since the works of Utiyama and Kibble that the gravitational force can be obtained by gauging the Poincare group, which puts gravity on the same footing as the standard model fields. The resulting theory-Einstein-Cartan gravity-inevitably ...

The art of simulating the early universe. Part I. Integration techniques and canonical cases

Daniel Garcia Figueroa, Adrien Florio, Wessel Valkenburg

We present a comprehensive discussion on lattice techniques for the simulation of scalar and gauge field dynamics in an expanding universe. After reviewing the continuum formulation of scalar and gauge field interactions in Minkowski and FLRW backgrounds, ...

The completed SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: a multitracer analysis in Fourier space for measuring the cosmic structure growth and expansion rate

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Anand Stéphane Raichoor

We perform a joint BAO and RSD analysis using the eBOSS DR16 LRG and ELG samples in the redshift range of z is an element of [0.6, 1.1], and detect an RSD signal from the cross-power spectrum at a similar to 4 sigma confidence level, i.e., f sigma(8) = 0.3 ...

Cold gas in the cosmic web around galaxy clusters

Damien Louis Alexandre Spérone-Longin

Galaxies live in very different types of environment. Those different environments are relics from the evolution of the Universe since the Big Bang. This network of structures observed via large scale surveys is called Cosmic Web. Within this web, galaxies ...

SEEDisCS: I. Molecular gas in galaxy clusters and their large-scale structure: The case of CL1411.1-1148 at z similar to 0.5

Pascale Jablonka, Gianluca Castignani, Damien Louis Alexandre Spérone-Longin

We investigate how the galaxy reservoirs of molecular gas fuelling star formation are transformed while the host galaxies infall onto galaxy cluster cores. As part of the Spatially Extended ESO Distant Cluster Survey (SEEDisCS), we present CO(3-2) observat ...

Probing the gravitational wave background from cosmic strings with LISA

Daniel Garcia Figueroa

Cosmic string networks offer one of the best prospects for detection of cosmological gravitational waves (GWs). The combined incoherent GW emission of a large number of string loops leads to a stochastic GW background (SGWB), which encodes the properties o ...

Chiral fermion asymmetry in high-energy plasma simulations

Salim Bennouna

The chiral magnetic effect (CME) is a quantum relativistic effect that describes the appearance of an additional electric current along a magnetic field. It is caused by an asymmetry between the number densities of left- and right-handed fermions, which ca ...

Molecular gas and star formation activity in luminous infrared galaxies in clusters at intermediate redshifts

Pascale Jablonka, Gianluca Castignani, Damien Louis Alexandre Spérone-Longin

We investigate the role of dense megaparsec-scale environments in processing molecular gas of cluster galaxies as they fall into the cluster cores. We selected a sample of similar to 20 luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) belonging to intermediate-redshift ...

Energetics of turbulence generated by chiral MHD dynamos

Salim Bennouna

An asymmetry in the number density of left- and right-handed fermions is known to give rise to a new term in the induction equation that can result in a dynamo instability. At high temperatures, when a chiral asymmetry can survive for long enough, this chi ...

Ability of LIGO and LISA to probe the equation of state of the early Universe

Daniel Garcia Figueroa

The expansion history of the Universe between the end of inflation and the onset of radiation-domination (RD) is currently unknown. If the equation of state during this period is stiffer than that of radiation, w > 1/3, the gravitational wave (GW) backgrou ...
