IMPORTANT PAPERS
Particle theory
An important particle theory paper is numbered 202 on the publication list.
This paper has 777 citations. It predicts a bilepton resonance in same-sign leptons with mass below 4 TeV. The LHC has a relevant search which may be completed in 2023.
One Nobel prizewinner has promised to support a Nobel prize, if this theory is supported.
Theoretical cosmology
An important theoretical cosmology papers is numbered 317 on the publication list.
This paper has 472 citations. It shows that if matter-antimatter asymmetry originates
from the leptogenesis mechanism with a CP-violating phase which coincides with that in
terrestrial neutrino experiments, then Nature chooses this theory.
