TLDR
In this paper, it was shown that even a simple model as simple as QED on a torsionful background space-time gives rise to axionic hair, which is associated with the axion and dilaton of string theory.

A facility to search for hidden particles at the CERN SPS: the SHiP physics case.

Sergey Alekhin, +95 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the SHiP experiment has a unique potential to discover new physics and can directly probe a number of solutions of beyond the standard model puzzles, such as neutrino masses, baryon asymmetry of the Universe, dark matter, and inflation.

General relativistic boson stars

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the possibilities of detecting the various subtypes of (excited) BSs: possible signals include gravitational redshift and (micro-)lensing, emission of gravitational waves, or, in the case of a giant BS, its dark matter contribution to the rotation curves of galactic halos.

A facility to Search for Hidden Particles at the CERN SPS: the SHiP physics case

TL;DR: The SHiP (Search for Hidden Particles) experiment at CERN as discussed by the authors was designed to search for new physics in the largely unexplored domain of very weakly interacting particles with masses below the Fermi scale, inaccessible to the LHC experiments.

A White Paper on keV sterile neutrino Dark Matter

Rathin Adhikari, +144 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of keV-scale neutrino Dark Matter can be found in this paper, where the role of active neutrinos in particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology is reviewed.

The cosmological constant is possibly zero, but the proof is probably wrong.

TL;DR: In this paper, the cosmological constant measured experimentally is not in general given by the coefficient of √−g in some effective action but rather by the coefficients of gμν in the effective Einstein equations.

Quantum Fields in Curved Space

N. D. Birrell, +1 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the subject of gravitational effects in quantum field theory can be found in this paper, where special emphasis is given to the Hawking black hole evaporation effect, and to particle creation processes in the early universe.

General Relativity with Spin and Torsion: Foundations and Prospects

TL;DR: In this article, a generalization of Einstein's gravitational theory is discussed in which the spin of matter as well as its mass plays a dynamical role, and the theory which emerges from taking this coupling into account, the ${U}_{4}$ theory of gravitation, predicts, in addition to the usual infinite-range gravitational interaction medicated by the metric field, a new, very weak, spin contact interaction of gravitational origin.

Black Holes and Membranes in Higher Dimensional Theories with Dilaton Fields

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider scale invariant theories which couple gravity to Maxwell fields and antisymmetric tensor fields with a dilaton field, and they exhibit in a unified way solutions representing black hole, space-time membrane, vortex and cosmological solutions.

Event Horizons in Static Vacuum Space-Times

TL;DR: Among all static, asymptotically flat vacuum space-times with closed simply connected equipotential surfaces, the Schwarzschild solution is the only one which has a nonsingular infinite-red-shift surface.

Axisymmetric Black Hole Has Only Two Degrees of Freedom

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that in a certain canonical sense, the Kerr metrics represent the exterior fields of black holes with the corresponding mass and angular-momentum values.
