Testing solar lepton mixing sum rules in neutrino oscillation experiments (2014)
Journal Article
Ballett, P., King, S., Luhn, C., Pascoli, S., & Schmidt, M. (2014). Testing solar lepton mixing sum rules in neutrino oscillation experiments. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2014(12), Article 122. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep12%282014%29122

Small discrete family symmetries such as S4, A4 or A5 may lead to simple leading-order predictions for the neutrino mixing matrix such as the bimaximal, tribimaximal or golden ratio mixing patterns, which may be brought into agreement with experiment...

Nonlinear structure formation in Nonlocal Gravity (2014)
Journal Article
Barreira, A., Li, B., Hellwing, W., Baugh, C., & Pascoli, S. (2014). Nonlinear structure formation in Nonlocal Gravity. Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2014(09), Article 031. https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2014/09/031

We study the nonlinear growth of structure in nonlocal gravity models with the aid of N-body simulation and the spherical collapse and halo models. We focus on a model in which the inverse-squared of the d'Alembertian operator acts on the Ricci scala... Read More about Nonlinear structure formation in Nonlocal Gravity.

Using the Milky Way satellites to study interactions between cold dark matter and radiation (2014)
Journal Article
Boehm, C., Schewtschenko, J., Wilkinson, R., Baugh, C., & Pascoli, S. (2014). Using the Milky Way satellites to study interactions between cold dark matter and radiation. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 445(1), L31-L35. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnrasl/slu115

The cold dark matter (CDM) model faces persistent challenges on small scales. In particular, the model significantly overestimates the number of satellite galaxies around the Milky Way. Attempts to solve this problem remain controversial and have eve... Read More about Using the Milky Way satellites to study interactions between cold dark matter and radiation.

The observational status of Galileon gravity after Planck (2014)
Journal Article
Barreira, A., Li, B., Baugh, C., & Pascoli, S. (2014). The observational status of Galileon gravity after Planck. Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2014(08), Article 059. https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2014/08/059

We use the latest CMB data from Planck, together with BAO measurements, to constrain the full parameter space of Galileon gravity. We constrain separately the three main branches of the theory known as the Cubic, Quartic and Quintic models, and find... Read More about The observational status of Galileon gravity after Planck.

Modified gravity with massive neutrinos as a testable alternative cosmological model (2014)
Journal Article
Barreira, A., Li, B., Baugh, C., & Pascoli, S. (2014). Modified gravity with massive neutrinos as a testable alternative cosmological model. Physical Review D, 90(2), Article 023528. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.90.023528

We show that, in the presence of massive neutrinos, the Galileon gravity model provides a very good fit to the current cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature, CMB lensing and baryonic acoustic oscillation data. This model, which we dub νGalile... Read More about Modified gravity with massive neutrinos as a testable alternative cosmological model.

We investigate the performance of semi-analytical modelling of large-scale structure in Galileon gravity cosmologies using results from N-body simulations. We focus on the Cubic and Quartic Galileon models that provide a reasonable fit to CMB, SNIa a... Read More about Halo model and halo properties in Galileon gravity cosmologies.

Testing atmospheric mixing sum rules at precision neutrino facilities (2014)
Journal Article

We study the prospects for testing classes of atmospheric mixing sum rules at precision neutrino facilities. Such sum rules, which correlate the atmospheric mixing angle θ23 with the recently measured reactor angle θ13 and the cosine of the oscillati...

Models of leptonic flavour with discrete symmetries can provide an attractive explanation of the pattern of elements found in the leptonic mixing matrix. The next generation of neutrino oscillation experiments will allow the mixing parameters to be t...
