Michael Fedderke and his team propose fireball antinucleosynthesis: collisions between dark matter objects that could spark high-energy "fireballs" of antiparticles, mimicking a mini Big Bang and producing antihelium under the right conditions.

If complex antimatter exists in the wild, researchers have an idea how it got there.

Periodic Cosmic String Formation and Dynamics We study string formation and dynamics in a scalar field theory with a global $U(1)$ symmetry. If a scalar field $Φ$ is initially displaced from the minimum of a wine-bottle potential, even if uniform...

Creamy Pan-Roasted Scallops With Fresh Tomatoes Recipe In this homage to a classic dish at Grand Central Oyster Bar in New York, scallops are quickly poached in a creamy, piquant tomato sauce that’s spiked with Worcestershire and celery seed If you want t...

cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1022... Halve the scallops, add two cloves of garlic, make sure you give more time for liquids to reduce, go easy on the parsley, serve over rice. Might be one of the best things I have ever eaten.

Kicking the Tires on Picolensing as a Probe of Primordial Black Hole Dark Matter Gravitational-lensing parallax of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is an intriguing probe of primordial black hole (PBH) dark matter in the asteroid-mass window, $2\times 10^{-16}M_{\odot} \lesssim M_{\text{PB...

Fireball anti-nucleosynthesis The tentative identification of approximately ten relativistic anti-helium cosmic-ray events at AMS-02 would, if confirmed, challenge our understanding of the astrophysical synthesis of heavy...
