Primordial Black Hole from Tensor-induced Density Fluctuation: First-order Phase Transitions and Domain Walls
Tensor perturbations from first-order phase transitions and domain wall annihilation induce curvature fluctuations at second order that form primordial black holes, allowing asteroid-mass PBHs to comprise all dark mat...

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: DR6 Constraints on Extended Cosmological Models
ACT DR6 CMB data shows no significant evidence for extensions beyond Lambda CDM, with neutrino effective species at 2.86 plus or minus 0.13 and sum of neutrino masses below 0.082 eV at 95 percent CL.

Probing Bose-enhanced Inflaton Decay with Gravitational Waves
Bose enhancement from a transient condensate of inflaton decay products dramatically increases decay efficiency and amplifies stochastic gravitational wave production to potentially observable levels.

Cosmological Probes of Lepton Parity Freeze-in Dark Matter: $\Delta N_{\rm eff}$ & Gravitational Waves
Lepton parity stabilizes a Majorana fermion as freeze-in dark matter produced via right-handed neutrino or Higgs decays, yielding detectable gravitational waves or ΔN_eff depending on scalar couplings.

Single field matter bounce with dark energy era: comparison with CMB Planck 2018 data and best fit parameters
A matter bounce model driven by a scalar field with exponential potential fits Planck 2018 CMB data comparably to inflationary ΛCDM, with the potential slope λ directly setting the scalar spectral index ns.

Singlet-doublet dark matter induced radiative neutrino mass and TeV scale leptogenesis
Singlet-doublet dark matter induces radiative neutrino masses at one loop while enabling TeV-scale leptogenesis in both Majorana and Dirac realizations.

Galactic foreground residue biases in cosmic-microwave-background lensing-convergence reconstruction and delensing of B-mode maps
Galactic foreground residuals after component separation bias lensing reconstruction errors at cosmic-variance levels with Gaussian terms dominating, while non-Gaussian errors are three orders smaller; residuals becom...
