EuCAPT White Paper: Opportunities and Challenges for Theoretical Astroparticle Physics in the Next Decade

R. Alves Batista, +131 more
TLDR
The European Consortium for Astroparticle Theory (EuCAPT) white paper as mentioned in this paper explores upcoming theoretical opportunities and challenges for our field of research with particular emphasis on the possible synergies among different subfields, and the prospects for solving the most fundamental open questions with multi-messenger observations.
Abstract
Astroparticle physics is undergoing a profound transformation, due to a series of extraordinary new results, such as the discovery of high-energy cosmic neutrinos with IceCube, the direct detection of gravitational waves with LIGO and Virgo, and many others. This white paper is the result of a collaborative effort that involved hundreds of theoretical astroparticle physicists and cosmologists, under the coordination of the European Consortium for Astroparticle Theory (EuCAPT). Addressed to the whole astroparticle physics community, it explores upcoming theoretical opportunities and challenges for our field of research, with particular emphasis on the possible synergies among different subfields, and the prospects for solving the most fundamental open questions with multi-messenger observations.

The Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Black Hole Merger

TL;DR: The first direct detection of gravitational waves and the first observation of a binary black hole merger were reported in this paper, with a false alarm rate estimated to be less than 1 event per 203,000 years, equivalent to a significance greater than 5.1σ.

Bow-Shock Pulsar Wind Nebulae Searches Aided by the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves

TL;DR: The North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOW) is a collaboration of researchers who are actively engaged in using North American radio telescopes to detect and study gravitational waves (GWs) via pulsar timing.

Oscillons after Inflation

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that in a class of well-motivated single-field models, inflation is followed by self resonance, leading to copious oscillon generation and a lengthy period of oscillon domination.

A Reverse Shock in GRB 130427A

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present extensive radio and millimeter observations of the unusually bright GRB-130427A at z = 0.340, spanning 0.67-12 days after the burst.

A response to O. Arandjelovic's critique of "The reproducibility of research and the misinterpretation of p-values"

TL;DR: The main criticism of my piece in this article seems to be that my calculations rely on testing a point null hypothesis, i.e. the hypothesis that the true effect size is zero.

A tidal disruption event coincident with a high-energy neutrino

Robert Stein, +64 more
- 22 Feb 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the likely association of a radio-emitting tidal disruption event, AT2019dsg, with a second high-energy neutrino, which was identified as part of a systematic search for optical counterparts to high-energetic neutrinos with the Zwicky Transient Facility.

Bounds on light sterile neutrino mass and mixing from cosmology and laboratory searches

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided a consistent framework to set limits on properties of light sterile neutrinos coupled to all three active neutrino using a combination of the latest cosmological data and terrestrial measurements from oscillations, and they reliably found all matrix elements to be constrained below $|U_{\alpha4}|^2 \lesssim 10^{-3}$.
Journal ArticleDOI

Baryogenesis and dark matter from B mesons

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a new mechanism of baryogenesis and dark matter production in which both the dark matter relic abundance and the baryon asymmetry arise from neutral $B$ meson oscillations and subsequent decays.

The effects of cosmic rays on the formation of Milky Way-mass galaxies in a cosmological context

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of cosmic rays and different modes of CR transport on the properties of Milky Way-mass galaxies in cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical simulations in the context of the AURIGA project was investigated.
