Gravitational collapse in cubic Horndeski theories

open access: yes, 2020
We study spherically symmetric gravitational collapse in cubic Horndeski theories of gravity. By varying the coupling constants and the initial amplitude of the scalar field, we determine the region in the space of couplings and amplitudes for which it ...

No presentism in quantum gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This essay offers a reaction to the recent resurgence of presentism in the philosophy of time. What is of particular interest in this renaissance is that a number of recent arguments supporting presentism are crafted in an untypically naturalistic vein ...

Bionic Solar‐Powered Heavy Metal Trap for Eco‐Friendly Sludge Drying and Simultaneous Electricity Generation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Herein, we propose a solar‐powered heavy metal trap (SPHT) for sludge disposal. The indoor experiments demonstrated that the sludge water content decreased from 90 % to 31 %, coupled with a decrease in heavy metal content to 6 % at most. Furthermore, the designed SPHT generated an initial potential of 0.10 V, and monitoring this hydrovoltaic potential ...

Practical Lithium–Sulfur Batteries: An Integrated Design Roadmap from High‐Loading Cathodes to High‐Energy Pouch Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review presents an integrated design roadmap for practical lithium–sulfur batteries, moving beyond isolated material breakthroughs to the synergistic combination of three interdependent frontiers: Scale‐Up, Electrolyte‐Cathode Synergy, and AI/ML Data‐Driven Design.

Higher order gravities and the Strong Equivalence Principle

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
We show that, in all metric theories of gravity with a general covariant action, gravity couples to the gravitational energy-momentum tensor in the same way it couples to the matter energy-momentum tensor order by order in the weak field approximation ...

On the Emergence of Time in Quantum Gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We discuss from a philosophical perspective the way in which the normal concept of time might be said to `emerge' in a quantum theory of gravity. After an introduction, we briefly discuss the notion of emergence, without regard to time (Section 2).

Liquid Metals in Radio Frequency Applications: A Review of Physics, Manufacturing, and Emerging Technologies

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
This paper reviews the physics of liquid metals in RF devices, including the influence of mechanical strain on resonance as well as fabrication methods and strategies for designing tunable and strain‐tolerant inductors, capacitors, and antennas.

Time Remains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
How should one understand the implications of general covariance for the role of time in classical theories of gravity? On one popular view, the essential lesson is that change is relational in a strong sense, such that all it is for a physical degree of
