A number of challenges to the standard Λ CDM model have been emerging during the past
few years as the accuracy of cosmological observations improves. In this review we discuss …

The exploration of the universe has recently entered a new era thanks to the multi-
messenger paradigm, characterized by a continuous increase in the quantity and quality of …

A bstract We discuss the theoretical bases that underpin the automation of the computations
of tree-level and next-to-leading order cross sections, of their matching to parton shower …

The Swampland program aims to distinguish effective theories which can be completed into
quantum gravity in the ultraviolet from those which cannot. This article forms an introduction …

The nuclear equation of state (EOS) is at the center of numerous theoretical and
experimental efforts in nuclear physics. With advances in microscopic theories for nuclear …

We review applications of string theory to cosmology, from primordial times to the present-
day accelerated expansion. Starting with a brief overview of cosmology and string …

Very compact objects probe extreme gravitational fields and may be the key to understand
outstanding puzzles in fundamental physics. These include the nature of dark matter, the …

In this review we present a thoroughly comprehensive survey of recent work on modified
theories of gravity and their cosmological consequences. Amongst other things, we cover …

A bstract A search is presented for physics beyond the standard model (SM) using electron
or muon pairs with high invariant mass. A data set of proton-proton collisions collected by …

This article reviews recent developments in tests of fundamental physics using atoms and
molecules, including the subjects of parity violation, searches for permanent electric dipole …
