Abstract:   The nature of dark matter is one of the most profound unanswered questions in physics. One of the best motivated explanations is that it is composed of particles with mass and couplings tied to the electroweak scale of...

Einstein first correctly predicted how mass deflects light. Galaxy clusters, comprising of up to hundreds of galaxies all residing in a still larger dark matter halo, act as excellent gravitational lenses. We present results from the James Webb Space Telescope...

Plasma-based accelerators have demonstrated their ability to accelerate electrons at very high gradients (>100GeV/m). The AWAKE experiment, located at CERN, aims to produce high-energy electron bunches (50 to 200GeV) for application to particle physics. Large energy gain is in principle...
