My two papers on primordial regular BHs with Marco Calzà and Davide Pedrotti (see these two earlier news items: part 1 and part 2), where we characterize non-singular primordial BHs as DM candidates, have now officially been published in PRD! The full bibliographic coordinates for the papers are Phys. Rev. D 111 (2025) 024009 and Phys. Rev. D 111 (2025) 042010. Here and here are the links to the papers.

Non-parametric expansion history reconstruction paper published in PRD!

The full bibliographic coordinates for the paper are Phys. Rev. D 110 (2024) 123519. Here is the link to the paper.
Hubble tension, Ωm, and ωc paper accepted in PRD!
My paper with Davide Pedrotti, Jun-Qian Jiang, Luis Escamilla, and Simony Santos da Costa, where we discuss the multidimensionality of the Hubble tension and the roles of Ωm and ωc (see this earlier news item), has been accepted for publication in PRD! There were extremely minor revisions compared to the earlier version, which have resulted in a clearer discussion of the novel aspects and the domain of applicability of our results. You can read the preprint version of the paper on arXiv: 2408.04530.
Primordial regular black holes papers accepted in PRD!
Extremely good news today as my two earlier papers on primordial regular BHs with Marco Calzà and Davide Pedrotti (see these two earlier news items: part 1 and part 2), where we characterize non-singular primordial BHs as DM candidates, have both been accepted for publication in PRD! There have been a few changes with respect to the earlier versions (slight changes to the titles, discussions on the time evolution of these BHs added, and a few minor additions), but our main messages are unaltered. You can read the preprint versions of the papers on arXiv: 2409.02804 and 2409.02807.
Non-parametric expansion history reconstruction paper accepted in PRD!
My paper with Jun-Qian Jiang, Davide Pedrotti, and Simony Santos da Costa (first one entirely produced within my group), where we perform a non-parametric reconstruction of the late-time expansion history in light of DESI BAO data (see this earlier news item), has been accepted for publication in PRD! Compared to the earlier version, there have been minor changes to the plots and title, but our main results are unaltered. You can read the preprint version of the paper on arXiv: 2408.02365.
Quasinormal modes-shadow correspondence paper published in PRD!
My paper with Davide Pedrotti, which explores the validity of the eikonal quasinormal modes-shadow radii correspondence for rotating regular black holes (see this earlier news item), has now officially been published in PRD! The full bibliographic coordinates for the paper are Phys. Rev. D 110 (2024) 084075. Here is the link to the paper.
APS Reviewer Excellence Award!
I’m absolutely honored to have received the 2024 Reviewer Excellence Award from the American Physical Society, in recognition of my exceptional peer review contributions to PRD. I strongly believe in the value of peer review and always put significant efforts into ensuring my reviews are detailed and helpful for the authors, while upholding the high standards of the journals I review for: I am therefore very glad my efforts have been officially recognized! For me this award is especially valuable coming from PRD, which is both the journal I review the most for, and the journal where I have published the most papers (including my first one).
Quasinormal modes-shadow correspondence paper accepted in PRD!
My paper with Davide Pedrotti, which explores the validity of the eikonal quasinormal modes-shadow radii correspondence for rotating regular black holes (see this earlier news item), has been accepted for publication in PRD! Very minor revisions compared to the previous version include the addition of an extra point for which we tested the correspondence and minor updates to the figures. Unfortunately, during the review process the paper also changed its title (losing its cool first part on the lightning-thunder correspondence!), but we knew far too well that it would have been super hard to keep it. Congratulations Davide for your first paper accepted for publication, and here’s to hoping there will be many more! You can read the preprint version of the paper on arXiv: 2404.07589.
Solar chameleons paper published in PRD!
My paper with Tom O'Shea, Anne Davis, Maurizio Giannotti, Luca Visinelli, and Julia Vogel, where we revisited the issue of production of Solar chameleons (see this earlier news item), has now officially been published in PRD! The full bibliographic coordinates for the paper are Phys. Rev. D 110 (2024) 063027. Here is the link to the paper (which is published Open Access).
Solar chameleons paper accepted in PRD!
My paper with Tom O'Shea, Anne Davis, Maurizio Giannotti, Luca Visinelli, and Julia Vogel, where we revisited the issue of production of Solar chameleons (see this earlier news item), has been accepted for publication in PRD! Minor revisions compared to the previous version include a rough estimate of how much the CAST bound on the chameleon-photon coupling changes accounting for the production channels we studied. You can read the preprint version of the paper on arXiv: 2406.01691.
