Gravitational Baryogenesis in Rainbow Gauss-Bonnet gravity

The gravitational baryogenesis is studied in regularized four dimensional Einstein Gauss Bonnet model with rainbow gravity corrections. This combined framework generates a non vanishing time derivative of the Ricci scalar even during radiation domination era. We derive analytical expressions for the baryon to entropy ratio in both the high curvature and perturbative regimes. The Gauss Bonnet contribution produces nonzero asymmetry precisely at radiation era, where the Einstein Hilbert contribution vanishes. Numerical analysis identifies viable parameter spaces reproducing the observed baryon to entropy ratio, compatible with observations.

Narrow spectral artifact investigation and mitigation in LIGO data from the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run

We present efforts to identify, characterize, and mitigate narrow spectral artifacts in LIGO detector data during the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run. Narrow spectral artifacts in gravitational-wave detectors are non-astrophysical noise sources that can degrade searches for narrowband persistent gravitational waves. Identifying and, where possible, mitigating these noise sources is one of the core efforts of the LIGO Detector Characterization group. Key software tools have been updated and new tools deployed for the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run to facilitate investigations and data monitoring. We discuss these tool upgrades, and present several identified narrowband artifacts that have been successfully investigated and mitigated in LIGO data. Regardless of whether artifacts are mitigated or not, narrowband persistent gravitational-wave searches require information on which frequency bands contain non-astrophysical artifacts. Minimizing the number of bands containing non-astrophysical artifacts is essential to maximize the potential for discovery of a new class of gravitational-wave signals.

Reheating in a modified teleparallel model of inflation

We study the cosmological inflation and reheating in a teleparallel model of gravity. Reheating is assumed to be due to the decay of a scalar field to radiation during its rapid oscillation. By using cosmological perturbations during inflation, and subsequent evolutions of the Universe, we calculate the reheating temperature as a function of the spectral index and the power spectrum.
