Testing realistic SO(10) SUSY GUTs with proton decay and gravitational waves (2024)
Journal Article
Fu, B., King, S. F., Marsili, L., Pascoli, S., Turner, J., & Zhou, Y. (2024). Testing realistic SO(10) SUSY GUTs with proton decay and gravitational waves. Physical Review D, 109(5), Article 055025. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.109.055025

We present a comprehensive analysis of a supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified theory, which is broken to the Standard Model via the breaking of two intermediate symmetries. The spontaneous breaking of the first intermediate symmetry, B−L, leads to the... Read More about Testing realistic SO(10) SUSY GUTs with proton decay and gravitational waves.

EFT, decoupling, Higgs boson mixing, and higher dimensional operators (2024)
Journal Article
Banerjee, U., Chakrabortty, J., Englert, C., Naskar, W., Rahaman, S. U., & Spannowsky, M. (2024). EFT, decoupling, Higgs boson mixing, and higher dimensional operators. Physical Review D, 109(5), Article 055035. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.109.055035

The effective field theory (EFT) framework is a precise approximation procedure when the inherent assumptions of a large-scale separation between the Standard Model (SM) and new interactions alongside perturbativity are realized. Constraints from ava... Read More about EFT, decoupling, Higgs boson mixing, and higher dimensional operators.

LOFAR HBA observations of the Euclid Deep Field North (EDFN) (2024)
Journal Article
Bondi, M., Scaramella, R., Zamorani, G., Ciliegi, P., Vitello, F., Arias, M., …White, G. J. (2024). LOFAR HBA observations of the Euclid Deep Field North (EDFN). Astronomy & Astrophysics, 683, Article A179. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202348333

We present the first deep (72 h of observations) radio image of the Euclid Deep Field North (EDFN) obtained with the LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR) High Band Antenna (HBA) at 144 MHz. The EDFN is the latest addition to the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (Lo... Read More about LOFAR HBA observations of the Euclid Deep Field North (EDFN).

Stellar populations and the origin of thick disks in AURIGA simulations (2024)
Journal Article
Pinna, F., Walo-Martín, D., Grand, R. J. J., Martig, M., Fragkoudi, F., Gómez, F. A., …Pakmor, R. (2024). Stellar populations and the origin of thick disks in AURIGA simulations. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 683, Article A236. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202347388

Context. Recent integral-field spectroscopy observations of edge-on galaxies have led to significant progress in our knowledge of the ages and chemical compositions of thick disks. However, the origin of thick disks and their evolutionary connection... Read More about Stellar populations and the origin of thick disks in AURIGA simulations.

Cosmic evolution of FRI and FRII sources out to z = 2.5 (2024)
Journal Article
de Jong, J. M. G. H. J., Röttgering, H. J. A., Kondapally, R., Mingo, B., van Weeren, R. J., Best, P. N., …Vecchi, F. F. (2024). Cosmic evolution of FRI and FRII sources out to z = 2.5. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 683, Article A23. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202347131

Context. Radio-loud active galactic nuclei (RLAGN) play an important role in the evolution of galaxies through the effects on their environment. The two major morphological classes are core-bright (FRI) and edge-bright (FRII) sources. With the LOw-... Read More about Cosmic evolution of FRI and FRII sources out to z = 2.5.
