Indications of Intermediate-Scale Anisotropy of Cosmic Rays with Energy Greater Than 57 EeV in the Northern Sky Measured with the Surface Detector of the Telescope Array Experiment

Rasha Abbasi, +124 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors search for intermediate-scale anisotropy in the arrival directions of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays with energies above 57~EeV in the northern sky using data collected over a 5 year period by the surface detector of the Telescope Array experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural extension of the Generalised Uncertainty Principle

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose an extension of the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) which implies the existence of a minimum observable momentum, which is directly connected to the nonzero cosmological constant, which becomes a necessary ingredient for a more complete picture of the quantum space.
Journal ArticleDOI

The cosmological constant from the QCD Veneziano ghost

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the solution to the cosmological vacuum energy puzzle is linked to the infrared sector of the effective theory of gravity interacting with standard model fields, with QCD fields specifically.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cosmological constant from the ghost: A toy model

TL;DR: In this paper, the 2D Schwinger model on a 2-torus and in curved 2D space is analyzed and the departure from Minkowski flatness is found to scale as 1/L, where L is the linear size of the torus.
Journal ArticleDOI

The QCD nature of dark energy

TL;DR: In this article, the Veneziano ghost, being unphysical in the usual Minkowski QFT, exhibits important physical eects if the universe is expanding, which are naturally very small as they are proportional to the rate of expansion H = QCD 10 41.
