Massless positivity in graviton exchange

چکیده

We formulate Positivity Bounds for scattering amplitudes including exchange of massless particles. generalize the standard construction through dispersion relations to include presence a branch cut along real axis in complex plane Maldestam variable $s$. In general, validity these bounds require cancellation divergences forward limit amplitude, proportional $t^{-1}$ and $\log(t)$. show that this is possible case gravitons if one assumes Regge behavior amplitude at high energies below Planck scale, as previously suggested literature, concrete UV behaviour uniquely determined by structure IR divergences. thus extend previous results sub-leading logarithmic term, which we be universal. The present here have potential constraining very general models modified gravity EFTs matter coupled gravitation.

Massless and massive graviton spectra in anisotropic dilatonic braneworld cosmologies

We consider a braneworld model in which an anisotropic brane is embedded in a dilatonic background. We solve the background solutions and study the behavior of the perturbations when the universe evolves from an inflationary Kasner phase to a Minkowski phase. We calculate the massless mode spectrum, and find that it does not differ from what expected in standard four-dimensional cosmological mo...

Inflationary trispectrum from graviton exchange

We compute the connected four-point correlation function of the primordial curvature perturbation generated during inflation with standard kinetic terms, where the correlation is established via exchange of a graviton between two pairs of scalar fluctuations. Any such correlation yields a contribution to the scalar trispectrum of the order of the tensor to scalar ratio r. This contribution is n...

Unique Identification of Graviton Exchange Effects in

Many types of new physics can lead to contact interaction-like modifications in e+e− processes below direct production threshold. We examine the possibility of uniquely identifying the effects of graviton exchange, which are anticipated in many extra dimensional theories, from amongst this large set of models by using the moments of the angular distribution of the final state particles. In the ...

Massless mode and positivity violation in hot QCD.

We calculate the quark self-energy at one-loop level at high temperature, taking into account contributions from both the (chromo)electric scale gT and the (chromo)magnetic scale g^{2}T. While reproducing standard massive excitations due to the electric scale, we uncover a novel massless excitation ascribable to the magnetic scale. The residue of this massless excitation is nonpositive at all t...

Unique Graviton Exchange Signatures at Linear Colliders

Many types of new physics can lead to contact interaction-like modifications in e+e− processes below direct production threshold. We examine the possibility of uniquely identifying the effects of graviton exchange from amongst this large set of models by using the moments of the angular distribution of the final state particles. In the case of e+e− → ff̄(W+W−) we demonstrate that this technique ...
