Probing Poincaré violation (2023)
Journal Article

Time and space translation invariance, giving rise to energy and momentum conservation, are not only amongst the most fundamental but also the most generally accepted symmetry assumptions in physics. It is nevertheless prudent to put such assumptions... Read More about Probing Poincaré violation.

Precision SMEFT bounds from the VBF Higgs at high transverse momentum (2021)
Journal Article

We study the production of Higgs bosons at high transverse momenta via vector-boson fusion (VBF) in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). We find that contributions from four independent operator combinations dominate in this limit. Thes... Read More about Precision SMEFT bounds from the VBF Higgs at high transverse momentum.

Towards the ultimate differential SMEFT analysis (2020)
Journal Article

We obtain SMEFT bounds using an approach that utilises the complete multi-dimensional differential information of a process. This approach is based on the fact that at a given EFT order, the full angular distribution in the most important electroweak... Read More about Towards the ultimate differential SMEFT analysis.

Nelson-Barr relaxion (2019)
Journal Article

Cosmological relaxation models in which the relaxion is identified with the QCD axion, generically fail to account for the smallness of the strong C P phase. We present a simple alternative solution to this “relaxion C P problem” based on the Nelson-... Read More about Nelson-Barr relaxion.

Probing electroweak precision physics via boosted Higgs-strahlung at the LHC (2018)
Journal Article

We study the process pp → Zðlþl−Þhðbb¯Þ in the standard model effective field theory (SMEFT) at high energies using subjet techniques to reconstruct the Higgs boson. We show that at high energies this process probes four directions in the dimension-6... Read More about Probing electroweak precision physics via boosted Higgs-strahlung at the LHC.

Relaxion measure problem (2018)
Journal Article

We examine the necessity of requiring that relaxion dynamics is dominated by classical slow roll and not quantum fluctuations. It has been recently proposed by Nelson and Prescod-Weinstein [Phys. Rev. D 96, 113007 (2017)] that abandoning this require... Read More about Relaxion measure problem.

The hierarchion, a relaxion addressing the Standard Model’s hierarchies (2018)
Journal Article

We present a mechanism that addresses the electroweak, the strong CP, and the flavor hierarchies of the Standard Model (including neutrino masses) in a unified way. The naturalness of the electroweak scale is solved together with the strong CP proble... Read More about The hierarchion, a relaxion addressing the Standard Model’s hierarchies.
