    A rather minimal possibility is that dark matter consists of the gauge bosons of a
    spontaneously broken symmetry. Here we explore the possibility of detecting the gravitational waves produced by the phase transition associated with such breaking. Particularly promising for LISA is the super-cool dark matter regime,
    with DM masses above 100 TeV, for which we find that the gravitational wave...

    We propose a new extension of the Standard Model by a U(1)B−L gauge symmetry in which the anomalies are canceled by two right-handed neutrinos plus four chiral fermions with fractional B-L charges. Two scalar fields that break the B-L symmetry and give masses to the new fermions are also required. After symmetry breaking, two neutrinos acquire Majorana masses via the seesaw mechanism leaving a...

    We consider a model with $U(1)^\prime$ local gauge symmetry, additional to the Standard Model gauge symmetry, which is broken by a singlet field scalar. In addition, the scalar sector contains two doublet scalar field. One of them is the usual Standard Model doublet scalar field that breaks the electroweak symmetry, meanwhile the second one is included to introduce the Weak Interacting Massive...

    In this talk we consider a model based on interacting $p-$forms and explore some cosmological applications. Restricting to gauge invariant actions, we build a general Lagrangian allowing for arbitrary interactions between the $p-$forms (including interactions with a $0-$form, scalar field) in a given background in $D$ dimensions. For simplicity, we restrict the construction to up to first...

    The holographic dark energy could be interpreted as an infrared cut-off for modified gravity theories $f(R)$. In this approach, several reference modified gravity models can be analyzed, and a reconstruction method for different cosmological scenarios can be done. From the analysis of the autonomous system and the stability of perturbations to the dark energy sector, it was found that the...

    A stationary worldline is one of the most simple non-trivial motions in physics. Point charges moving along these trajectories emit constant radiative power. The angular distribution of this power is found for all stationary worldlines including those with torsion and hypertorsion.

    We study possible top quark spin correlation effects in Dark Matter (DM) production in association with top quarks at the LHC. Final states and their kinematic properties are studied in detail at the 14 TeV LHC. We show some preliminary results of angular correlations and distributions of the top quarks which may allow us to explore the DM interactions.

    In the limit of an approximate $\mu-\tau$ symmetry in the neutrino mass matrix, we explore deviations to the Tri-Bi-Maximal mixing pattern in the neutrino sector. The correction matrix is parametrized as $U_{ij}(\phi,\sigma)U(\alpha_1,\alpha_2)$, where $\phi$ is the rotation angle in the $ij$ flavors, and $\sigma$, $\alpha_1$ and $\alpha_2$ are complex phases. We show that the $ij=13$ and $23$...
