Nucleosynthesis and CMB bounds on photophilic ALPs: a fresh look / Escudero, Miguel (CERN) ; Garcia-Perez, Clara (CERN ; Zaragoza U.) ; Ovchynnikov, Maksym (CERN)
We provide a fresh look at the cosmological constraints on axion-like particles (ALPs) that couple predominantly to photons, focusing on lifetimes $τ_{a} \lesssim 10^{4}\, {\rm s}$ and masses $m_a\lesssim 10\,{\rm GeV}$. [...]

opbasis - a Python package to derive minimal operator bases / Husung, Nikolai (CERN ; Madrid, IFT ; Madrid, Autonoma U.)
Finding a complete and yet minimal on-shell basis of operators of a given mass-dimension that are compatible with a specific set of transformation properties is the first step in any Effective Field Theory description. [...]
