New Dimensions in Cosmic Lensing
I review the current status of combing weak gravitational lensing with depth information from redshifts as a direct probe of dark matter and dark energy in the Universe. In particular I highlight: (1) The first maximum likelihood measurement of the...
Interdimensionals, DMT-entities, angels. Garry Nolan said the intelligence community think…
# Whats in this post This post explores the idea that some (not all) UAP come from beyond the physical universe, from places such as the "DMT realm" or "the afterlife". Apologies if the post became t...
Widening Perspectives: The Intellectual and Social Benefits of Astrobiology, Big History,…
Astrobiology is the field of science devoted to searching for life elsewhere in the Universe. It is inherently interdisciplinary, integrating results from multiple fields of science, and in this respect has strong synergies with 'big history'. I argu...
De la nation universelle au territoire-monde : L’avenir de la République dans une crise gl…
Le mot de « nation » peut être tenu pour l’un de ceux qui auront le plus puissamment contribué à façonner les formes effectives de la politique moderne, pour le meilleur et pour le pire. Il po...
Big Bang Nucleosynthesis Initial Conditions: Revisiting Wagoner et al. (1967)
We revisit Wagoner et al. (1967), a classic contribution in the development of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. We demonstrate that it presents an incorrect expression for the temperature of the early universe as a function of time in the high temperature l...
Freeze-in Dark Matter Through Forbidden Channel in $U(1)_{B-L}$
We examine a scenario for freeze-in production of dark matter, which occurs due to the large thermal correction to the mass of a decaying mediator particle present in the thermal bath of the early Universe. We show that the decays, which are kinemati...
Universal gravitational-wave signatures from heavy new physics in the electroweak sector
We calculate the gravitational-wave spectra produced by the electroweak phase transition with TeV-scale Beyond-Standard-Model physics in the early universe. Our study captures the effect of quantum and thermal fluctuations within a non-perturbative f...
Phase transitions in the early universe
These lecture notes are based on a course given by Mark Hindmarsh at the 24th Saalburg Summer School 2018 and written up by Marvin Lüben, Johannes Lumma and Martin Pauly. The aim is to provide the necessary basics to understand first-order phase tra...
Directional Search for Persistent Gravitational Waves: Results from the First Part of LIGO…
The angular distribution of gravitational-wave power from persistent sources may exhibit anisotropies arising from the large-scale structure of the Universe. This motivates directional searches for astrophysical and cosmological gravitational-wave ba...
Cosmological and High Energy Physics implications from gravitational-wave background searc…
We search for gravitational-wave background signals produced by various early Universe processes in the Advanced LIGO O4a dataset, combined with the data from the earlier O1, O2, and O3 (LIGO-Virgo) runs. The absence of detectable signals enables pow...

MCP-Universe: Benchmarking Large Language Models with Real-World Model Context Protocol Se…
The Model Context Protocol has emerged as a transformative standard for connecting large language models to external data sources and tools, rapidly gaining adoption across major AI providers and development platforms. However, existing benchmarks ar...
Primordial Magnetic Fields that Last?
The magnetic fields we observe in galaxies today may have their origins in the very early universe. While a number of mechanisms have been proposed which lead to an appreciable field amplitude at early times, the subsequent evolution of the field i...
The detectability of cosmological gravitational-wave backgrounds: a rule of thumb
The recent claim by BICEP2 of evidence for primordial gravitational waves from inflation has focused interest on the potential for early-Universe cosmology using observations of gravitational waves. In addition to cosmic microwave background detector...
Primordial Black Holes
Aspects of primordial black holes, i.e. black holes formed in the early Universe, are reviewed. Special emphasis is put on their formation, their role as dark matter candidates and their manifold signatures, particularly through gravitational waves....
Randall-Sundrum Gravitons and Black Holes at the LHC
Models predicting the existence of extra spatial dimensions offer compelling and novel solutions to outstanding problems of the Standard Model. In such models, our universe exists on a 4 dimensional brane embedded in a larger dimensional space time...
The THESEUS Workshop 2017
The Transient High-Energy Sky and Early Universe Surveyor (THESEUS) is a mission concept developed in the last years by a large European consortium, with interest in prospective participation by research groups in USA and other non-European countries...
CoReCon: an open, community-powered collection of Reionization constraints
The number of available constraints on the Universe during and before cosmic reionization is rapidly growing. These are often scattered across inhomogeneous formats, unit systems and sampling strategies. In this paper, I introduce CoReCon, a Python p...
Snowmass2021 Cosmic Frontier White Paper: Cosmology and Fundamental Physics from the three…
Advances in experimental techniques make it possible to map the high redshift Universe in three dimensions at high fidelity in the near future. This will increase the observed volume by many-fold, while providing unprecedented access to very large sc...
