A first study of strong isospin breaking effects in lattice QCD using truncated polynomials / Albandea, David (Helmholtz Inst., Mainz ; Darmstadt, GSI) ; Kuberski, Simon (CERN) ; Panadero, Fernando P. (Madrid, IFT)
Computing derivatives of observables with respect to parameters of the theory is a powerful tool in lattice QCD, as it allows the study of physical effects not directly accessible in the original Monte Carlo simulation. [...]

Influence of tides and self-gravity on Ultra-Light Dark Matter Bounds from Dwarf Galaxies / Caputo, Andrea (CERN ; Weizmann Inst. ; U. Rome La Sapienza (main) ; INFN, Rome) ; Teodori, Luca (IAC, La Laguna ; Laguna U., Tenerife)
Dwarf spheroidal galaxies provide some of the most sensitive astrophysical probes of ultra-light dark matter (ULDM), but the inferred constraints can be affected by two important systematics: tidal interactions with the Milky Way, which reduce ULDM-induced dynamical heating, and stellar self-gravity, which can become relevant if the stellar component was more compact at earlier times.

Simulating Axion Electrodynamics in Magnetized Plasmas: Energy transfer in the inhomogeneous and strongly varying limit / Corelli, Fabrizio (U. Rome La Sapienza (main) ; Potsdam, Max Planck Inst. ; INFN, Rome) ; Ginés, Estanis Utrilla (Valencia U., IFIC) ; Cannizzaro, Enrico (Lisbon, CENTRA ; IST, Lisbon (main)) ; Caputo, Andrea (U. Rome La Sapienza (main) ; CERN ; Weizmann Inst. ; INFN, Rome) ; Witte, Samuel J. (Oxford U., Theor. Phys. ; DESY ; Hamburg U., Inst. Theor. Phys. II)
In this work we study the electromagnetic response induced by axions in a magnetized plasma, focusing specifically on characterizing energy transfer and energy losses from the ambient axion field in highly inhomogeneous and strongly varying backgrounds. [...]

Baryogenesis from Exploding Primordial Black Holes / Klipfel, Alexandra P. (MIT) ; Vanvlasselaer, Miguel (Brussels U., IIHE ; U. Barcelona (main)) ; Trifinopoulos, Sokratis (MIT ; CERN ; Zurich U.) ; Kaiser, David I. (MIT)
Exploding primordial black holes can source baryon asymmetry soon after the electroweak phase transition, as high-energy Hawking radiation drives ultrarelativistic shocks in the surrounding plasma. [...]
