Keilhauer (Eds.), Proceedings of Science: ICRC 2021Earth-skimming neutrinos are those which travel through the Earth’s crust at a shallow angle. For Ultra-High-Energy (E휈 > 1 PeV; UHE) earth-skimming tau neutrinos, there is a high-probability that the tau lepton created by a neutrino-Earth interacti...

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021(12), Article 216. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep12%282021%29216In the framework where the strong coupling is dynamical, the QCD sector may confine at a much higher temperature than it would in the Standard Model, and the temperature-dependent mass of the QCD axion evolves in a non-trivial way. We find that, depe... Read More about Resurrecting low-mass axion dark matter via a dynamical QCD scale.
SU Lyn - a transient symbiotic star (2021)

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 510(3), 3885-3895. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab3771Astrometric noise (ϵ) in excess of parallax and proper motion is a potential signature of orbital wobble (ω) of individual components in binary star systems. The combination of X-ray selection with astrometric noise could then be a powerful tool for... Read More about Astrometric excess noise in Gaia EDR3 and the search for X-ray binaries.

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 510(3), 3589-3604. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab3657General relativity predicts that the rotational momentum flux of matter twists the space–time via a vector gravitomagnetic (frame-dragging) field, which remains undetected in cosmology. This vector field induces an additional gravitational lensing ef... Read More about Looking for a twist: probing the cosmological gravitomagnetic effect via weak lensing-kSZ cross correlations.
