Coupling metric-affine gravity to a Higgs-like scalar field

Sebastian Zell

General relativity (GR) exists in different formulations. They are equivalent in pure gravity but generically lead to distinct predictions once matter is included. After a brief overview of various versions of GR, we focus on metric-affine gravity, which a ...

Dark matter in galaxy clusters: Parametric strong-lensing approach

Benjamin Emmanuel Nicolas Beauchesne

We present a parametric strong-lensing analysis of three massive galaxy clusters for which Hubble Space Telescope imaging is available, as well as spectroscopy of multiply imaged systems and galaxy cluster members. Our aim is to probe the inner shape of da ...

Constraining the baryonic feedback with cosmic shear using the DES Year-3 small-scale measurements

Eduardo Sanchez, Binglun Yin, Yi Zhang, Jonathan Andrew Blazek

We use the small scales of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year-3 cosmic shear measurements, which are excluded from the DES Year-3 cosmological analysis, to constrain the baryonic feedback. To model the baryonic feedback, we adopt a baryonic correction model ...

SEAGLE III: Towards resolving the mismatch in the dark-matter fraction in early-type galaxies between simulations and observations

Matthieu Schaller, Georgios Vernardos

The central dark-matter fraction of galaxies is sensitive to feedback processes during galaxy formation. Strong gravitational lensing has been effective in the precise measurement of the dark-matter fraction inside massive early-type galaxies. Here, we com ...

Magnetogenesis in Higgs-Starobinsky inflation

Oleksandr Sobol

In the framework of mixed Higgs-Starobinsky inflation, we consider the generation of Abelian gauge fields due to their nonminimal coupling to gravity (in two different formulations of gravity-metric and Palatini). We couple the gauge-field invariants F mu ...

Cosmology with Large Scale Structures using Massive Spectroscopic Surveys

Amélie Tamone

Spectroscopic surveys aim to map large fractions of the Universe to study the Large Scale Structures (LSS). LSS evolution traces the distribution of matter as a result of the tension between the expansion of the Universe and the gravitational forces, which ...

Biomechanics at the workplace under hypogravity conditions

Tatiana Maillard

The main goal of my research is to establish guidelines for workplace design based on human biomechanics: specifically sitting workplaces and handling areas in 1/6G-1/3G (Moon, Mars) conditions. Such a workplace could be used in long-term space missions in ...

The DESI N-body Simulation Project - II. Suppressing sample variance with fast simulations

Yu Yu, Andrei Variu, Cheng Zhao, Hanyu Zhang

Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) will construct a large and precise three-dimensional map of our Universe. The survey effective volume reaches similar to 20 h(-3) Gpc(3). It is a great challenge to prepare high-resolution simulations with a much ...

Comparative Analysis of Total Alpha-Synuclein (alpha SYN) Immunoassays Reveals That They Do Not Capture the Diversity of Modified alpha SYN Proteoforms

Hilal Lashuel, Lorène Aeschbach, Mohamed Bilal Fares, Ritwik Burai, Layane Hanna-el-Daher, Lara Petricca

Background: The development of therapeutics for Parkinson's disease (PD) requires the establishment of biomarker assays to enable stratifying patients, monitoring disease progression, and assessing target engagement. Attempts to develop diagnostic assays b ...

Matter matters in Einstein-Cartan gravity

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Georgios Karananas, Andrey Shkerin, Sebastian Zell

We study scalar, fermionic and gauge fields coupled nonminimally to gravity in the Einstein-Cartan formulation. We construct a wide class of models with nondynamical torsion whose gravitational spectra comprise only themassless graviton. Eliminating nonpro ...

Einstein-Cartan Portal to Dark Matter

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Andrey Shkerin, Inar Timiryasov, 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 ...

Halo Mass-concentration Relation at the High-mass End

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Huanyuan Shan, Ginevra Favole

The concentration-mass (c-M) relation encodes key information about the assembly history of dark matter halos. However, its behavior at the high mass end has not been measured precisely in observations yet. In this paper, we report the measurement of the h ...
