The initial data from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) on M87*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the M87 Galaxy, provide direct observational information on its mass, spin, and accretion disk properties. A combination of the EHT data and other constraints provides evidence that M87* has a mass similar to 6.5 x 10(9) M-circle dot. EHT also inferred the dimensionless spin parameter vertical bar a*vertical bar greater than or similar to 0.5 from jet properties; a separate recent analysis using only the light from near M87* as measured by the EHT Collaboration found vertical bar a*vertical bar=0.9 +/- 0.1. These determinations disfavor ultralight bosons of mass mu(b) is an element of (0.85; 4.6) x 10(-21) eV for spin-one bosons and mu(b) is an element of (2.9; 4.6) x 10(-21) eV for spin-zero bosons, within the range considered for fuzzy dark matter, invoked to explain dark matter distribution on approximately kiloparsec scales. Future observations of M87* could be expected to strengthen our conclusions.

Supermassive Black Holes, Ultralight Dark Matter, and Gravitational Waves from a First Order Phase Transition

Hooman Davoudiasl, Peter B. Denton, Julia Gehrlein

Summary: This paper presents a model that explores the connection between the formation of supermassive black holes and ultralight dark matter in the early Universe. By considering a confining first order phase transition at a temperature of around 10 keV, the production of primordial supermassive black holes with masses of 10^9 solar masses is facilitated. This phase transition also suggests a possible mass for a motivated ultralight axion dark matter candidate. Additionally, the assumed first order phase transition is expected to generate primordial gravitational waves in the frequency range of around 10^(-12)-10^(-9) Hz, which could be detectable by pulsar timing arrays.

Summary: High energy collisions at the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (LHC) produce a large number of particles beyond the acceptance of existing experiments. The proposed Forward Physics Facility (FPF) will host experiments to probe standard model processes and search for physics beyond the standard model (BSM). FPF experiments will explore BSM physics through searches for new particle scattering or decay signatures and deviations from SM expectations in a low-background environment.

Solar parameters in long-baseline accelerator neutrino oscillations

Peter B. Denton, Julia Gehrlein

Summary: Long-baseline accelerator neutrino oscillation experiments have the ability to measure all six oscillation parameters, including the solar and atmospheric mass splittings. The sensitivity to CP violation is reduced without external input from solar experiments. These experiments provide an orthogonal probe of the solar parameters and a consistency check of the less probed sector of the three-flavor oscillation picture.

How to identify different new neutrino oscillation physics scenarios at DUNE

Peter B. Denton, Alessio Giarnetti, Davide Meloni

Summary: Next generation neutrino oscillation experiments will measure remaining oscillation parameters accurately and enable the search for new physics. DUNE is well-suited for this search due to its capabilities and environment. By studying existing data and considering various scenarios, including sterile neutrinos and non-standard neutrino interactions, DUNE's ability to differentiate between models can be determined. A new fit to NOvA and T2K data with scalar NSI is also performed.

Summary: Neutrinos, the least understood particles in the Standard Model, have weak interactions with other particles. The self-interactions of neutrinos, which are not well-known, are predicted by the Standard Model to exceed current experimental capabilities, allowing for potential interactions beyond the Standard Model at various energy scales. This white paper reviews the current knowledge of neutrino self-interactions from a range of probes, including cosmology, astrophysics, and laboratory experiments. Theoretical motivations, such as neutrino masses and connections to dark matter, are also discussed. The paper discusses future search capabilities, emphasizing the possibility of discovering beyond the Standard Model physics.

Sterile neutrino shape shifting caused by dark matter

Hooman Davoudiasl, Peter B. Denton

Summary: This study proposes a cosmologically viable proposal that is consistent with terrestrial experiments and solar constraints, by sourcing the mass of unobservable sterile neutrinos with a mass of -1 eV from an ultralight scalar field Φ. In this scenario, the experimentally implied -1 eV sterile neutrino mass is a local value and changes throughout spacetime.

Summary: Neutrinos are potential messengers for new physics beyond the Standard Model, as their elusive nature and unknown mass mechanism suggest the opening of a window to new physics in the neutrino sector. Long-standing anomalies reported in the past decades provide strong motivation to thoroughly test the standard three-neutrino oscillation paradigm in current and future neutrino experiments. This Snowmass21 white paper explores the potential of these experiments to investigate new physics effects on neutrino flavor during the next decade.

New constraints on the dark side of non-standard interactions from reactor neutrino scattering data

Peter B. Denton, Julia Gehrlein

Summary: This article mainly introduces the degeneracies in neutrino oscillation physics, known as LMA-Dark, which make it impossible to determine the atmospheric mass ordering using oscillation experiments alone. By combining different measurements, the degeneracies can be lifted to some extent. New data from the Dresden-II experiment are used to completely remove the degeneracies in the ν(e) sector at the MeV scale. However, the LMA-Dark degeneracy can still be restored in the ν(μ) and ν(τ) sectors.
