Enhanced Cosmic-Ray Antinuclei Fluxes with Dark Matter Annihilation into SUEPs / Di Mauro, Mattia (INFN, Turin) ; Gemmell, Caleb (Wisconsin U., Madison ; Toronto U.) ; Batz, Austin (Oregon U. ; LBL, Berkeley) ; Curtin, David (Toronto U.) ; Donato, Fiorenza (INFN, Turin) ; Fornengo, Nicolao (INFN, Turin) ; Kribs, Graham D. (Oregon U. ; CERN)
Standard-Model (SM) hadronic parton showers initiated by secondary cosmic-ray production or dark matter (DM) annihilations robustly predict very low antinuclei yields and a strong additional suppression for heavier antinuclei. [...]

Dark Matter from Eternity / Franciolini, G. (U. Padua (main) ; INFN, Padua ; CERN) ; Peloso, M. (U. Padua (main) ; INFN, Padua) ; Riotto, A. (U. Geneva (main))
We propose that the totality of dark matter in the universe might ascribe its origin to one of the key properties of cosmological inflation, that it may be eternal: regions that at the end of the primordial accelerated expansion of the universe never reheated, but keep eternally inflating, manifest themselves as primordial black holes in our observable universe.

Heavy-quark production in deep-inelastic scattering -- Mellin moments of structure functions / Klann, Marco (Hamburg U., Inst. Theor. Phys. II) ; Moch, Sven-Olaf (Hamburg U., Inst. Theor. Phys. II) ; Schönwald, Kay (CERN)
We compute Mellin moments of the heavy-quark structure functions in deep-inelastic scattering at next-to-leading order in quantum chromodynamics, retaining their full dependence on the heavy-quark mass. [...]

Waterloo (main)) ; Wilson, C.M. (U. Waterloo (main))
We propose a superconducting-circuit architecture that realizes a compact U(1) lattice gauge theory using the intrinsic infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of phase and charge variables. [...]

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has uncovered a population of compact, high-redshift sources, the Little Red Dots (LRDs), which may host supermassive black holes (BHs) significantly heavier than their stellar content compared with local scaling relations. [...]
