Author(s): Oliver Just, Zewei Xiong, and Gabriel Martínez-Pinedo Nuclear reactions of any sort are computationally difficult to include in any sort of astrophysical simulation. The combination of a large number of species to keep track of and stiff differential equations will bog down these computations. Thus, there is a strong impetus to developed simplified models or approximate methods to allow for nuclear reactions to be included. In this...

Author(s): Danat Issa, Beverly Lowell, Jonatan Jacquemin-Ide, Matthew Liska, and Alexander Tchekhovskoy Launching jets from collapsar black holes requires strong magnetic field and rapid rotation. However, strong fields can spin down the collapsar black holes before the jet can be launched. In this work, the authors study the effect of neutrino cooling on this jet launching process. They show that neutrino cooled disks can continue to feed angular...

Author(s): Andrés N. Salcedo, Alice Pisani, and Nico Hamaus This paper presents a study of cosmological parameter forecasts based on a combination of cosmic void statistics and galaxy clustering. The DESI 5 year data and results from other imaging surveys are used to demonstrate how void statistics can be used together with traditional galaxy clustering in an efficient manner in cosmological parameter forecasts.

Author(s): Jamie M. Karthein, Krishna Rajagopal, Maneesha Pradeep, Mikhail Stephanov, and Yi Yin If there is a critical point in the phase diagram for quantum chromodynamics at non-zero chemical potential, it is known that it is in the universality class of the three-dimensional Ising model. The authors initiate a quantitative study of the collider particle physics implications of a critical point, starting from properties of the Ising model,...

Author(s): Michael Müller and Reed Essick Weak tidal forces alter the gravitational-wave signal from merging neutron stars by just enough that the telltale signature could be detected in large sensitive surveys. [Phys. Rev. D 113, 064062] Published Tue Mar 31, 2026

Author(s): R. Abbasi et al. (IceCube Collaboration) The IceCube observatory at the South Pole has found evidence for a break in the spectrum of cosmic neutrinos, with theoretical implications for their generation. [Phys. Rev. D 113, 062002] Published Thu Mar 26, 2026

Author(s): Giovanni Pelliccioli and Rene Poncelet Multi-electroweak boson production at the Large Hadron Collider is directly sensitive to the non-Abelian nature of the electroweak force, and new physics may modify the triple gauge coupling from its Standard Model value. The authors achieve next-to-next-to-leading order QCD and next-to-leading order electroweak accuracy in predictions of cross sections for polarized WZ boson production with leptonic...
