    • A new variational discretization technique for initial value problems bypassing governing equations 

      Rothkopf, Alexander Karl; Nordström, Jan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-03)

    • No room to hide: implications of cosmic-ray upscattering for GeV-scale dark matter 

      Alvey, James; Bringmann, Torsten; Kolesova, Helena (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The irreducible upscattering of cold dark matter by cosmic rays opens up the intriguing possibility of detecting even light dark matter in conventional direct detection experiments or underground neutrino detectors. The ...
    • Noether currents of locally equivalent symmetries 

      Brauner, Tomas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Local symmetry transformations play an important role for establishing the existence and form of a conserved (Noether) current in systems with a global continuous symmetry. We explain how this fact leads to the existence ...
    • Non-equilibrium quantum field dynamics in the early Universe 

      Eriksson, Magdalena (PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2023)
      Inflation is the leading paradigm of early Universe cosmology. It provides compelling explanations of the observed near-homogeneity of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, the spatial flatness of the Universe ...
    • Nonequilibrium attractor in high-temperature QCD plasmas 

      Almaalol, Dekrayat; Kurkela, Aleksi; Strickland, Michael (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      We establish the existence of a far-from-equilibrium attractor in weakly coupled gauge theory undergoing one-dimensional Bjorken expansion. We demonstrate that the resulting far-from-equilibrium evolution is insensitive ...
    • Nonperturbative analysis of the electroweak phase transition in the two Higgs doublet model 

      Andersen, Jens Oluf; Gorda, Tyler; Helset, Andreas; Niemi, Lauri; Tenkanen, Tuomas V.I.; Tranberg, Anders; Vuorinen, Aleksi; Weir, David J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-11)
      We perform a nonperturbative study of the electroweak phase transition (EWPT) in the two Higgs doublet model (2HDM) by deriving a dimensionally reduced high-temperature effective theory for the model, and matching to known ...
    • Nonrelativistic effective field theories with enhanced symmetries and soft behavior 

      Mojahed, Martin Aria; Brauner, Tomas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      We systematically explore the landscape of nonrelativistic effective field theories with a local S-matrix and enhanced symmetries and soft behavior. The exploration is carried out using both conventional quantum field ...

      Doubrov, Boris; Ferapontov, Eugene V.; Kruglikov, Boris; Novikov, Vladimir (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-06)
      We investigate a class of multi-dimensional two-component systems of Monge-Ampère type that can be viewed as generalisations of heavenly type equations appearing in a self-dual Ricci-flat geometry. Based on the Jordan-Kronecker ...
