Primordial black hole production during first-order phase transitions

Jing Liu et al.

Summary: A novel mechanism for the production of primordial black holes is proposed, which is a natural consequence of general first-order phase transitions without specific underlying particle physics models. The results obtained provide mutual predictions and constraints between primordial black holes and gravitational waves in the general case. Specifically, primordial black holes generated during certain scale phase transitions could explain dark matter and account for observed gravitational wave events.

The NANOGrav 12.5-year Data Set: Search for Non-Einsteinian Polarization Modes in the Gravitational-wave Background

Zaven Arzoumanian et al.

Summary: The study searched for evidence of a gravitational-wave background (GWB) with all spatial correlations allowed by general metric theories of gravity in NANOGrav's data, but found no substantial evidence supporting such correlations. Results showed that scalar-transverse (ST) correlations had higher signal-to-noise ratios and Bayes factors than quadrupolar (tensor-transverse, TT) correlations, but the significance of ST correlations decreased significantly when considering solar system ephemeris systematics.

Sneutrino tribrid inflation, metastable cosmic strings and gravitational waves

Muhammad Atif Masoud et al.

Summary: This study presents a successful realization of the sneutrino tribrid inflation model based on a gauged U(1)(B-L) extension of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). By involving a single interaction term, it achieves multiple purposes such as generating heavy Majorana masses for the right-handed neutrinos, explaining tiny neutrino masses via the seesaw mechanism, and successfully realizing inflation with right-handed sneutrino as the inflaton. Depending on the model parameters, predicted ranges for the tensor to scalar ratio, running of the scalar spectral index, and B-L breaking scale are provided. A discussion on the possibility of realizing metastable cosmic strings in a grand unified theory setup is also included.

Precision cosmology and the stiff-amplified gravitational-wave background from inflation: NANOGrav, Advanced LIGO-Virgo and the Hubble tension

Bohua Li et al.

Summary: The study suggests that the SGWB may influence the expansion history of the Universe and possibly alleviate the current Hubble tension, but models amplifying the SGWB must consider the demands of precision cosmology. The resulting blue-tilted, stiff-amplified SGWB is still too small to explain the NANOGrav results, but if Advanced LIGO-Virgo detects the SGWB, the model may be able to explain it.

Blue-tilted inflationary tensor spectrum and reheating in the light of NANOGrav results

Sachiko Kuroyanagi et al.

Summary: The study explores the possibility of using inflationary gravitational waves with a blue-tilted primordial spectrum to explain the recent NANOGrav results. While these gravitational waves can explain the NANOGrav signal without contradicting the upper bound on the tensor-to-scalar ratio, they are in strong tension with other observational constraints. The thermal history of the Universe, including reheating and late-time entropy production, can affect the spectral shape of gravitational waves and potentially evade these constraints.

Searching for Gravitational Waves from Cosmological Phase Transitions with the NANOGrav 12.5-Year Dataset

Summary: The study explores a potential first-order phase transition gravitational wave signal, possibly occurring at temperatures below the electroweak scale, in 45 pulsars from the NANOGrav dataset. However, there is no strong preference for this phase-transition interpretation over the standard astrophysical explanation of supermassive black hole mergers. Future datasets are expected to improve discriminating power, enhance signal-to-noise ratio, and extend sensitivity to lower frequencies, offering a chance to better distinguish such signals.

Summary: The LIGO/Virgo Collaboration observed GW190521, the first binary black hole merger with the primary component mass in the mass gap predicted by the pair-instability supernova theory, disfavoring the standard stellar-origin formation scenario for the heavier black hole. The study shows that GW190521 cannot be explained within the primordial black hole scenario if PBHs do not accrete during their cosmological evolution, but may have a primordial origin if PBHs accrete efficiently before the reionization epoch.

Summary: The study focuses on the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) generated by cosmic domain walls (DWs) due to quantum fluctuations of a light scalar field during inflation. The angular power spectrum of this SGWB is scale invariant and of observational interest, providing a unique opportunity to verify inflationary theories and detect inflation energy scales. Detecting the anisotropies of such SGWBs is possible with instruments like the Square Kilometer Array, and the common-spectrum process observed by NANOGrav could be linked to the SGWB from cosmic DWs.

Gravitational waves and dark radiation from dark phase transition: Connecting NANOGrav pulsar timing data and hubble tension

Yuichiro Nakai et al.

Summary: Recent pulsar timing data from the NANOGrav collaboration suggests the presence of a stochastic gravitational wave background around a frequency of approximately 10(-8) Hz, possibly generated from a dark sector phase transition. The data implies that dark radiation, isolated from visible sector except via gravitational interaction, may have persisted until present, close to current upper bound, potentially helping alleviate the Hubble tension. Failure to confirm dark radiation in future CMB-S4 experiment may suggest existence of new particles weakly interacting with standard model sector at O(1-100) MeV energy scale.

By analyzing the phase portrait of the dynamical system and computing the perturbation spectra, the study identifies parameter regions consistent with cosmological data and suggests that future observations may provide further constraints on the coupling function of the model. Additionally, brief comments are made on the swampland conjecture.

NANOGrav signal from first-order confinement-deconfinement phase transition in different QCD-matter scenarios

Shou-Long Li et al.

Summary: Recently, an indicative evidence of a stochastic process has been reported, suggesting a potential stochastic gravitational wave signal. The first-order color charge confinement phase transition at the QCD scale could be a cosmological source for the NANOGrav signal, with future observations helping to distinguish between different scenarios.

Looking at the NANOGrav signal through the anthropic window of axionlike particles

Alexander S. Sakharov et al.

Summary: The study focuses on the inflationary dynamics of an axion like particle (ALP) field with a Peccci-Quinn-like phase transition occurring before the inflationary epoch. It explores how closed domain walls may leave imprints in the stochastic gravitational waves background and relates it to the NANOGrav signal excess. Through analysis of inflationary dynamics and isocurvature constraint, it reveals parameter combinations where signals from inflation-induced ALPs domain walls could match the NANOGrav excess amplitude.

Upper limits on the isotropic gravitational-wave background from Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo's third observing run

R. Abbott et al.

Summary: This study reports the results of a search for an isotropic gravitational-wave background using data from advanced detectors, placing upper limits on the strength of different types of gravitational-wave backgrounds. The study also explores the potential sources of correlated noise and compares the results to a fiducial model for the gravitational-wave background. Additionally, the study demonstrates the potential of combining results from individual mergers to provide stronger constraints on the merger rate of binary black holes.

Rescaled Einstein-Hilbert gravity from f (R) gravity: Inflation, dark energy, and the swampland criteria

V. K. Oikonomou

Summary: In this study, we analyze the scenario where the effective gravitational Lagrangian of a minimally coupled scalar field becomes a rescaled Einstein-Hilbert gravity at large curvatures, leading to changes in the inflationary phenomenology and satisfaction of swampland criteria. Two inflation models, fiber inflation and supergravity alpha-attractor models, are discussed to show their viability and satisfaction of swampland criteria. The late-time phenomenology of the fiber inflation potential in the presence of full f(R) gravity is examined, showing the production of a viable dark energy era similar to the Lambda-cold-dark-matter model. The modified gravity model presents a universe described by a rescaled Einstein-Hilbert gravity at early times, with the scalar field mainly controlling dynamics synergistically with f(R) gravity at late times.

Massive black hole binary systems and the NANOGrav 12.5 yr results

H. Middleton et al.

Summary: NANOGrav has detected a common stochastic signal across a series of pulsars, potentially linked to a stochastic gravitational-wave background caused by unresolved massive black hole binaries. Using astronomical models and additional constraints, the merger rate and timescale of black hole binaries can be inferred, suggesting that a sufficiently large population of black holes will form and merge within a Hubble time.

Cosmological constraints on Horava gravity revised in light of GW170817 and GRB170817A and the degeneracy with massive neutrinos

Noemi Frusciante et al.

Summary: In this study, we revise the cosmological limits on Horava gravity, while considering the constraints on the speed of propagation of gravitational waves and the relationship between massive neutrinos. The findings suggest that luminal propagation of gravitational waves can suppress large-scale CMB radiation temperature anisotropies, with massive neutrinos increasing this effect. Additionally, it is observed that massive neutrinos can compensate for modifications induced by Horava gravity, but there exists degeneracy with the tensor-to-scalar ratio r in theoretical levels.

Comparison of cosmic string and superstring models to NANOGrav 12.5-year results

Jose J. Blanco-Pillado et al.

Summary: This study compares the spectrum of stochastic gravitational wave background produced in various models of cosmic strings and discusses the theoretical uncertainties in computing such a background. Despite the uncertainties, cosmic strings are seen as a plausible explanation for the potential signal, with the consequences for cosmic string parameters depending on the specific model. Superstrings could also explain the signal, but only within a restricted parameter space where their network behavior is effectively the same as ordinary cosmic strings.

Evidence for different gravitational-wave sources in the NANOGrav dataset

Ligong Bian et al.

Summary: The NANOGrav Collaboration has provided strong evidence for a common-spectrum process in pulsar-timing data, suggesting it could be related to mergers of super massive black hole binaries or various stochastic gravitational-wave background sources in the early Universe. Bayesian analysis shows that the data favors cosmic strings as the gravitational-wave source over other possibilities.

Completed SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Cosmological implications from two decades of spectroscopic surveys at the Apache Point Observatory

Shadab Alam et al.

Summary: Based on the final measurements of clustering using galaxies, quasars, and Ly alpha forests from the SDSS lineage, this study provides comprehensive cosmological implications. The BAO data alone can rule out dark-energy-free models, and when combined with other measurements, significant improvements are made on constraining cosmological parameters within the ΛCDM model. The results indicate that various parameter extensions remain consistent with a ΛCDM model in a combined analysis, showing precision changes of less than 0.6% in key parameters.

QCD axion and gravitational waves in light of NANOGrav results

Nicklas Ramberg et al.

Summary: Research indicates that the NANOGrav team has found a stochastic gravitational wave background signal originating from a network of axionic strings in the early universe, related to a non-standard cosmological model with the dark matter particle QCD axion. The results suggest that under certain conditions, the gravitational wave spectrum from axionic strings is larger, the QCD axion mass is smaller, and the detection results of NANOGrav-12.5 years can be explained by the evolution of QCD axion field in a scenario similar to dust.

Implications of the NANOGrav result on primordial gravitational waves in nonstandard cosmologies

Sukannya Bhattacharya et al.

Summary: The NANOGrav Collaboration reported evidence of a common-spectrum stochastic process that may be the first detection of a stochastic gravitational wave background. The signal could be explained by first- and second-order gravitational waves in nonstandard cosmological history. The observation was ruled out in standard cosmology or nonstandard kination domination epochs, while standard radiation domination could explain the observation.

NANOGrav signal from magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at the QCD phase transition in the early Universe

Andrii Neronov et al.

Summary: The NANOGrav Collaboration has recently reported evidence for the existence of a stochastic gravitational wave background in the 1-100 nHz frequency range, which could have been produced by magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at the QCD scale. The magnetic field parameters inferred from the NANOGrav measurement suggest a potential solution to the Hubble tension problem. The MHD turbulence interpretation of the NANOGrav signal can be further tested through measurements of the relic magnetic field.

By utilizing cosmic chronometers data to break the geometrical degeneracy, the study provides a stable estimate of the spatial curvature of the universe.

Higher-curvature corrections and tensor modes

William Giare et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the effects of higher-curvature corrections on the spectrum of primordial tensor perturbations. It shows that observable violation of the tensor consistency relation from higher-curvature tensors can lead to relatively large changes in tensor tilt. This may leave signatures in the tensor two-point function that can be tested to identify higher-curvature effects, especially if they result in a blue tilted spectrum visible in future gravitational wave experiments.
