Gravitational waves (GWs) were recently detected for the first time. This revolutionary
discovery opens a new way of learning about particle physics through GWs from first-order …

Recent studies based on lattice Monte Carlo simulations of quantum chromodynamics
(QCD)—the theory of strong interactions—have demonstrated that at high temperature there …

In this review, we present an up-to-date phenomenological summary of research
developments in the physics of the Quark–Gluon Plasma (QGP). A short historical …

The many-body physics at quantum phase transitions shows a subtle interplay between
quantum and thermal fluctuations, emerging in the low-temperature limit. In this review, we …

A bstract We determine the QCD equation of state at nonzero temperature in the presence of
an isospin asymmetry between the light quark chemical potentials on the lattice. Our …

When Kai Zuber's pioneering text on neutrinos was published in 2003, the author correctly
predicted that the field would see tremendous growth in the immediate future. In that book …

A fundamental question of physics is what ultimately happens to matter as it is heated or
compressed. In the realm of very high temperature and density the fundamental degrees of …

Calculating the abundance of thermally produced dark matter particles has become a
standard procedure, with sophisticated methods guaranteeing a precision that matches the …

The kinetic decoupling of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) in the early universe
sets a scale that can directly be translated into a small-scale cutoff in the spectrum of matter …

Supposing only that there is an effective charge which defines an evolution scheme for
parton distribution functions (DFs) that is all-orders exact, strict lower and upper bounds on …
