abstract
We discuss properties of hypothetical scale invariant (unparticle) matter by viewing it as a tower of massive particles. We show how peculiar properties of unparticles emerge in the limit when the mass spacing parameter Delta vanishes. We explain why unparticle cannot decay in this limit and how, for finite Delta, the decays manifest themselves in a relation between the reconstructed invariant mass and vertex displacement. We describe a model field theory in AdS5 which explicitly implements the deconstruction procedure by truncating the extra dimension to size of order 1/Delta.

Banana loop cosmological correlators are captured by master integrals from tubings of marked graphs, with connection matrices derived from activation, merger, swap, and copy rules unique to unparticle exchanges.
The equilateral bispectrum from massive scalar exchange in inflation is not universally negative in the full EFT of inflation; its sign depends on a critical ratio of operator coefficients.
