Living beyond the edge: Higgs inflation and vacuum metastability

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Javier Rubio

The measurements of the Higgs mass and top Yukawa coupling indicate that we live in a very special universe, at the edge of the absolute stability of the electroweak vacuum. If fully stable, the Standard Model (SM) can be extended all the way up to the inf ...

Cosmological constraints on deviations from Lorentz invariance in gravity and dark matter

Julien Lesgourgues, Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino, Mikhail Ivanov, Benjamin Audren

We consider a scenario where local Lorentz invariance is violated by the existence of a preferred time direction at every space-time point. This scenario can arise in the context of quantum gravity and its description at low energies contains a unit time-l ...

Why should we care about the top quark Yukawa coupling?

Mikhail Chapochnikov

In the cosmological context, for the Standard Model to be valid up to the scale of inflation, the top quark Yukawa coupling y (t) should not exceed the critical value y (t) (crit) , coinciding with good precision (about 0.2aEuro degrees) with the requireme ...

Inflation, LHC and the Higgs boson

Mikhail Chapochnikov

After the Higgs boson has been discovered, the Standard Model of particle physics became a confirmed theory, potentially valid up to the Planck scale and allowing to trace the evolution of the Universe from inflationary stage till the present days. We disc ...

After the Higgs boson has been discovered, the Standard Model of particle physics became a confirmed theory, potentially valid up to the Planck scale and allowing one to trace the evolution of the Universe from the inflationary stage till the present days. ...

LFI systematic uncertainties

Julien Lesgourgues

We present the current estimate of instrumental and systematic effect uncertainties for the Planck-Low Frequency Instrument relevant to the first release of the Planck cosmological results. We give an overview of the main effects and of the tools and metho ...

UV-extending ghost inflation

Sergey Sibiryakov, Mikhail Ivanov

We present a setup that provides a partial UV-completion of the ghost inflation model up to a scale which can be almost as high as the Planck mass. This is achieved by coupling the inflaton to the Lorentz-violating sector described by the Einstein-aether t ...

Development and integration of high straightness flexure guiding mechanisms dedicated to the METAS watt balance Mark II

Reymond Clavel, Florent Cosandier

There is a firm will in the metrology community to redefine the kilogram in the International System of units by linking it to a fundamental physical constant. The watt balance is a promising way to link the mass unit to the Planck constant h. At the Feder ...
