Title: The present universe in the Einstein frame, metric-affine R+1/R gravity
Authors: Nikodem J. Poplawski
Comments: 11 pages; changed title, corrected terminology, extended analysis of cosmological parameters

We study the present, flat isotropic universe in 1/R-modified gravity. We use the Palatini (metric-affine) variational principle and the Einstein (metric-compatible connected) conformal frame. We show that the energy density scaling deviates from the usual scaling for nonrelativistic matter, and the largest deviation occurs in the present epoch. We find that the current deceleration parameter derived from the apparent matter density parameter is consistent with observations. There is also a small overlap between the predicted and observed values for the redshift-derivative of the deceleration parameter. The predicted redshift of the deceleration-to-acceleration transition agrees with that in the Lambda-CDM model but it is larger than the value estimated from SNIa observations.

Title: Parameter estimation of coalescing supermassive black hole binaries with LISA
Authors: K G Arun
Comments: 12 pages, 5 figures (eps) significant revision, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev. D

Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will routinely observe coalescences of supermassive black hole (BH) binaries up to very high redshifts. LISA can measure mass parameters of such coalescences to a relative accuracy of $10^{-4}-10^{-6}$, for sources at a distance of 3 Gpc. The problem of parameter estimation of massive nonspinning binary black holes using post-Newtonian (PN) phasing formula is studied in the context of LISA. Specifically, the performance of the 3.5PN templates is contrasted against its 2PN counterpart using a waveform which is averaged over the LISA pattern functions. The improvement due to the higher order corrections to the phasing formula is examined by calculating the errors in the estimation of mass parameters at each order. The estimation of the mass parameters ${\cal M}$ and $\eta$ are significantly enhanced by using the 3.5PN waveform instead of the 2PN one. For an equal mass binary of $2\times10^6M_\odot$ at a luminosity distance of 3 Gpc, the improvement in chirp mass is $\sim 11%$ and that of $\eta$ is $\sim 39%$. Estimation of coalescence time $t_c$ worsens by 43%. The improvement is larger for the unequal mass binary mergers. These results are compared to the ones obtained using a non-pattern averaged waveform. The errors depend very much on the location and orientation of the source and general conclusions cannot be drawn without performing Monte Carlo simulations. Finally the effect of the choice of the lower frequency cut-off for LISA on the parameter estimation is studied.

Title: Proposed observations of gravity waves from the early Universe via "Millikan oil drops"
Authors: R. Y. Chiao
Comments: 10 pages, 2 figures, NASA "Quantum-to-Cosmos" conference proceedings to be published in IJMPD

Pairs of Planck-mass drops of superfluid helium coated by electrons (i.e., ``Millikan oil drops''), when levitated in a superconducting magnetic trap, can be efficient quantum transducers between electromagnetic (EM) and gravitational (GR) radiation. This leads to the possibility of a Hertz-like experiment, in which EM waves are converted at the source into GR waves, and then back-converted at the receiver from GR waves back into EM waves. Detection of the gravity-wave analog of the cosmic microwave background using these drops can discriminate between various theories of the early Universe.

Title: Conformal symmetry of gravity and the cosmological constant problem
Authors: Mariano Cadoni
Comments: 5 pages, No figures

In absence of matter Einstein gravity with a cosmological constant $\Lambda$ can be formulated as a scale-free theory depending only on the dimensionless coupling constant $G \Lambda$, where $G$ is Newton constant. In regimes where only the dynamics of the conformal factor of the metric is relevant, Einstein gravity can be described by a conformal field theory in four dimensions. In the cosmological framework the model describes the usual Friedmann-Robertson-Walker flat universe. The conformal symmetry of the gravity sector is broken by coupling with matter. The dimensional coupling constants $G$ and $\Lambda$ are introduced by different terms in this coupling. If the vacuum of quantum matter fields respects the symmetry of the gravity sector, the vacuum energy has to be zero and the ``physical'' cosmological constant is generated by the coupling of gravity with matter. This could explain the tiny value of the observed energy density driving the accelerating expansion of the universe.

Title: Uniform discretizations: a quantization procedure for totally constrained systems including gravity
Authors: Miguel Campiglia, Cayetano Di Bartolo, Rodolfo Gambini, Jorge Pullin
Comments: 4 pages, Revtex

We present a new method for the quantization of totally constrained systems including general relativity. The method consists in constructing discretized theories that have a well defined and controlled continuum limit. The discrete theories are constraint-free and can be readily quantized. This provides a framework where one can introduce a relational notion of time and that nevertheless approximates in a well defined fashion the theory of interest. The method is equivalent to the group averaging procedure for many systems where the latter makes sense and provides a generalization otherwise. In the continuum limit it can be shown to contain, under certain assumptions, the ``master constraint'' of the ``Phoenix project''. It also provides a correspondence principle with the classical theory that does not require to consider the semiclassical limit.

Title: Nonlinear Inflaton Fragmentation after Preheating
Authors: Gary N. Felder, Lev Kofman
Comments: 9 pages, 6 figs

We consider the nonlinear dynamics of inflaton fragmentation during and after preheating in the simplest model of chaotic inflation. While the earlier regime of parametric resonant particle production and the later turbulent regime of interacting fields evolving towards equilibrium are well identified and understood, the short intermediate stage of violent nonlinear dynamics remains less explored. Lattice simulations of fully nonlinear preheating dynamics show specific features of this intermediate stage: occupation numbers of the scalar particles are peaked, scalar fields become significantly non-gaussian and the field dynamics become chaotic and irreversible. Visualization of the field dynamics in configuration space reveals that nonlinear interactions generate non-gaussian inflaton inhomogeneities with very fast growing amplitudes. The peaks of the inflaton inhomogeneities coincide with the peaks of the scalar field(s) produced by parametric resonance. When the inflaton peaks reach their maxima, they stop growing and begin to expand. The subsequent dynamics is determined by expansion and superposition of the scalar waves originating from the peaks. Multiple wave superposition results in phase mixing and turbulent wave dynamics. Thus, the short intermediate stage is defined by the formation, expansion and collision of bubble-like field inhomogeneities associated with the peaks of the original gaussian field. This process is qualitatively similar to the bubble-like inflaton fragmentation that occurs during tachyonic preheating after hybrid or new inflation.

Title: "Kludge" gravitational waveforms for a test-body orbiting a Kerr black hole
Authors: Stanislav Babak, Hua Fang, Jonathan R. Gair, Kostas Glampedakis, Scott A. Hughes
Comments: 29 pages, 11 figures, requires subeqnarray

One of the most exciting potential sources of gravitational waves for low-frequency, space-based gravitational wave (GW) detectors such as the proposed Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) is the inspiral of compact objects into massive black holes in the centers of galaxies. The detection of waves from such "extreme mass ratio inspiral" systems (EMRIs) and extraction of information from those waves require template waveforms. The systems' extreme mass ratio means that their waveforms can be determined accurately using black hole perturbation theory. Such calculations are computationally very expensive. There is a pressing need for families of approximate waveforms that may be generated cheaply and quickly but which still capture the main features of true waveforms. In this paper, we introduce a family of such "kludge" waveforms and describe ways to generate them. We assess performance of the introduced approximations by comparing "kludge" waveforms to accurate waveforms obtained by solving the Teukolsky equation in the adiabatic limit (neglecting GW backreaction). We find that the kludge waveforms do extremely well at approximating the true gravitational waveform, having overlaps with the Teukolsky waveforms of 95% or higher over most of the parameter space for which comparisons can currently be made. Indeed, we find these kludges to be of such high quality (despite their ease of calculation) that it is possible they may play some role in the final search of LISA data for EMRIs.

Title: Power Spectrum and Signatures for Cascade Inflation
Authors: Amjad Ashoorioon, Axel Krause
Comments: 14

The power spectrum of M-theory cascade inflation is derived. It possesses three distinctive signatures: a decisive power suppression at small scales, oscillations around the scales that cross the horizon when the inflaton potential jumps and stepwise decrease in the scalar spectral index. All three properties result from features in the inflaton potential. Cascade inflation realizes assisted inflation in heterotic M-theory and is driven by non-perturbative interactions of N M5-branes. The features in the inflaton potential are generated whenever two M5-branes collide with the boundaries. The derived small-scale power suppression serves as a possible explanation for the dearth of observed dwarf galaxies in the Milky Way halo. The oscillations, furthermore, allow to directly probe M-theory by measurements of the spectral index and to distinguish cascade inflation observationally from other string inflation models.

Title: The issue of Dark Energy in String Theory
Authors: Nick E. Mavromatos (King's Coll. London)
Comments: Based on Invited lecture at the ``Third Aegean Summer School on: The Invisible Universe: Dark matter and Dark energy'', Karfas, Chios Island (Greece) September 26-October 1 2005

Recent astrophysical observations, pertaining to either high-redshift supernovae or cosmic microwave background temperature fluctuations, as those measured recently by the WMAP satellite, provide us with data of unprecedented accuracy, pointing towards two (related) facts: (i) our Universe is accelerated at present, and (ii) more than 70 % of its energy content consists of an unknown substance, termed dark energy, which is believed responsible for its current acceleration. Both of these facts are a challenge to String theory. In this review I outline briefly the challenges, the problems and possible avenues for research towards a resolution of the Dark Energy issue in string theory.

Title: New critical behavior in unconventional ferromagnetic superconductors
Authors: Dimo I. Uzunov
Comments: 4 pages, 3 figures
Subj-class: Superconductivity; Strongly Correlated Electrons; Statistical Mechanics; Chemical Physics

A new critical behavior in unconventional superconductors and superfluids is established and described by the Wilson-Fisher renormalization-group method. For certain symmetries of order a new type of fluctuation-driven first order phase transitions at finite and zero temperature are predicted. The results can be applied to a wide class of ferromagnetic superconductive and superfluid systems, in particular, to itinerant ferromagnets as UGe_2 and URhGe.

Title: Trapped Quintessential Inflation in the context of Flux Compactifications
Authors: J.C. Bueno Sanchez, K. Dimopoulos
Comments: 35 pages, 4 figures, revtex

We present a model for quintessential inflation using a string modulus for the inflaton - quintessence field. The scalar potential of our model is based on generic non-perturbative potentials arising in flux compactifications. We assume an enhanced symmetry point (ESP), which fixes the initial conditions for slow-roll inflation. When crossing the ESP the modulus becomes temporarily trapped, which leads to a brief stage of trapped inflation. This is followed by enough slow roll inflation to solve the flatness and horizon problems. After inflation, the field rolls down the potential and eventually freezes to a certain value because of cosmological friction. The latter is due to the thermal bath of the hot big bang, which is produced by the decay of a curvaton field. The modulus remains frozen until the present, when it becomes quintessence.

The new experiment ``Extreme Energy Events'' (EEE) to detect extensive air showers through muon detection is starting in Italy. The use of particle detectors based on Multigap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPC) will allow to determine with a very high accuracy the direction of the axis of cosmic ray showers initiated by primaries of ultra-high energy, together with a high temporal resolution. The installation of many of such 'telescopes' in numerous High Schools scattered all over the Italian territory will also allow to investigate coincidences between multiple primaries producing distant showers. Here we present the experimental apparatus and its tasks.

Title: Detecting a stochastic background of gravitational waves in the presence of non-Gaussian noise: A performance of generalized cross-correlation statistic
Authors: Yoshiaki Himemoto, Atsushi Taruya, Hideaki Kudoh, Takashi Hiramatsu
Comments: 15 pages, 8 figures

We discuss the robust data analysis method to detect a stochastic background of gravitational waves in the presence of non-Gaussian noise. Fundamental methodology to detect weak stochastic signals is to use the cross-correlation statistic which combines the outputs of two gravitational detectors. Usually, the so-called standard cross-correlation (SCC) statistic is used for the data analysis of gravitational-wave background search, which is optimal only if the detector noise obeys a stationary Gaussian process. Here, we consider a {\it generalized cross-correlation} (GCC) statistic, which is nearly optimal even in the presence of non-Gaussian noise. The detection efficiency and the general tendency of the GCC statistic are investigated analytically, particularly focusing on the statistical quantities of the false-alarm and the false-dismissal probabilities and the minimum detectable amplitude of gravitational-wave signals. We find that the GCC statistics is robust against the non-Gaussian tail of detector noises. The detection efficiency of the GCC statistic roughly corresponds to the one of the SCC statistics neglecting the contribution of non-Gaussian tails. These remarkable properties are also checked and confirmed by performing the Monte Carlo simulations.

Title: Particle Physics Approach to Dark Matter
Authors: George Lazarides (Aristotle U., Thessaloniki)

We review the main proposals of particle physics for the composition of the cold dark matter in the universe. Strong axion contribution to cold dark matter is not favored if the Peccei-Quinn field emerges with non-zero value at the end of inflation and the inflationary scale is superheavy since, under these circumstances, it leads to unacceptably large isocurvature perturbations. The lightest neutralino is the most popular candidate constituent of cold dark matter. Its relic abundance in the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model can be reduced to acceptable values by pole annihilation of neutralinos or neutralino-stau coannihilation. Axinos can also contribute to cold dark matter provided that the reheat temperature is adequately low. Gravitinos can constitute the cold dark matter only in limited regions of the parameter space. We present a supersymmetric grand unified model leading to violation of Yukawa unification and, thus, allowing an acceptable b-quark mass within the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model with mu>0. The model possesses a wide range of parameters consistent with the data on the cold dark matter abundance as well as other phenomenological constraints. Also, it leads to a new version of shifted hybrid inflation.

Title: Ultra high energy neutrino-nucleon cross section from cosmic ray experiments and neutrino telescopes
Authors: V. Barger, Patrick Huber, Danny Marfatia
Comments: 20 pages, 6 figures, 2 tables

We deduce the cosmogenic neutrino flux by jointly analysing ultra high energy cosmic ray data from HiRes-I and II, AGASA and the Pierre Auger Observatory. We make two determinations of the neutrino flux by using a model-dependent method and a model-independent method. The former is well-known, and involves the use of a power-law injection spectrum. The latter is a regularized unfolding procedure. We then use neutrino flux bounds obtained by the RICE experiment to constrain the neutrino-nucleon inelastic cross section at energies inaccessible at colliders. The cross section bounds obtained using the cosmogenic fluxes derived by unfolding are the most model-independent bounds to date.

Comments: 23 pages, uses jpconf.cls, lecture given at Corfu Summer Institute on Elementary Particle Physics (CORFU2005), Corfu, Greece, 4-26 September 2005 (to appear in the proceedings)

The early stages of the universe evolution are discussed according to the hot big bang model and the grand unified theories. The shortcomings of big bang are summarized and their resolution by inflationary cosmology is sketched. Cosmological inflation, the subsequent oscillation and decay of the inflaton field, and the resulting reheating of the universe are studied in some detail. The density perturbations produced by inflation and the temperature fluctuations of the cosmic microwave background radiation are introduced. The hybrid inflationary model is described. Two natural variants of the supersymmetric version of this model which avoid the disaster encountered in its standard realization from the overproduction of magnetic monopoles are presented.
