Nuclear matrix elements from lattice QCD for electroweak and beyond-Standard-Model processes
Over the last decade, numerical solutions of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) using the
technique of lattice QCD have developed to a point where they are beginning to connect …

Cosmological moduli and the post-inflationary universe: a critical review
We critically review the role of cosmological moduli in determining the post-inflationary
history of the universe. Moduli are ubiquitous in string and M-theory constructions of beyond …

Light dark matter from forbidden channels
RT D'agnolo, JT Ruderman - Physical review letters, 2015 - APS
Dark matter (DM) may be a thermal relic that annihilates into heavier states in the early
universe. This forbidden DM framework accommodates a wide range of DM masses from …
