Measurement of the photon polarisation in B+ -> K+ pi- pi+ gamma decays at LHCb

All physical processes can be described, at a fundamental level, through interactions of elementary particles. The Standard Model of particle physics (SM) describes three of the four known fundamental forces and all of the known elementary particles. The a ...

LXXI. Simulations and nonlinearities beyond ΛCDM. 3. Constraints on f(R) models from the photometric primary probes

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

We study the constraint on f(R) gravity that can be obtained by photometric primary probes of the Euclid mission. Our focus is the dependence of the constraint on the theoretical modelling of the nonlinear matter power spectrum. In the Hu–Sawicki f(R) grav ...

Search for ηc (2S) → p(p)over-bar and branching fraction measurements of χcJ → p(p)over-bar via ψ(2S) radiative decays

Yunxuan Song

Using (27.12 +/- 0.14) x 10(8) psi(2S) events collected by the BESIII detector operating at BEPCII, we search for the decay eta(c) (2S) -> p (p) over bar via the process psi(2S) -> gamma eta(c)(2S) and only find a signal with a significance of 1.7 sigma. T ...

Hydrodynamical simulations of merging galaxy clusters: giant dark matter particle colliders, powered by gravity

David Richard Harvey

Terrestrial particle accelerators collide charged particles, then watch the trajectory of outgoing debris - but they cannot manipulate dark matter. Fortunately, dark matter is the main component of galaxy clusters, which are continuously pulled together by ...

A too-many-dwarf-galaxy-satellites problem in the M 83 group

Yves Revaz, Oliver Müller

Dwarf galaxies in groups of galaxies provide excellent test cases for models of structure formation. This led to a so-called small-scale crisis, including the famous missing-satellites and too-big-to-fail problems. It was suggested that these two problems ...

The phase-space distribution of the M 81 satellite system

Oliver Müller, Nick Heesters

The spatial distribution of dwarf galaxies around their host galaxies is a critical test for the standard model of cosmology because it probes the dynamics of dark matter halos and is independent of the internal baryonic processes of galaxies. Comoving pla ...

Cosmic Matter-Antimatter Separation and Sterile Neutrino Dark Matter

Mikhail Chapochnikov

The lattice studies provided evidence of a smooth crossover between the hadronic and quark-gluon phases at high temperatures and zero chemical potential for baryonic number. We argue that these simulations may not rule out relatively weekly first-order pha ...

CURLING - I. The influence of point-like image approximation on the outcomes of cluster strong lens modelling

Cluster-scale strong lensing is a powerful tool for exploring the properties of dark matter and constraining cosmological models. However, due to the complex parameter space, pixelized strong lens modelling in galaxy clusters is computationally expensive, ...

White dwarfs as a probe of exceptionally light QCD axions

Stefan Stelzl

We study the effects of exceptionally light QCD axions on the stellar configuration of white dwarfs. At finite baryon density, the nonderivative coupling of the axion to nucleons displaces the axion from its invacuum minimum, which implies a reduction of t ...
