From Classical Theory to Quantum Gravity [PDF]
Space Science Reviews, 2009 While it has been generally accepted for decades that general relativity and quantum theory are inconsistent, and that therefore general relativity must yield to a new theory of gravity compatible with quantum principles, the way to the new theory is still very unclear.

From classical theory to spin 2 gravity
Intellectual Archive, 2021 We consider here the simple derivation of the Einstein equations by Fock. Then, we approach the way from the spin 1 fields to the spin 2 fields for massive and massless particles and we derive the gravity equations from this base. In conclusion, we discuss the principle of equivalence in classical Einstein theory and in the Schwinger spin 2 ...

Mimetic massive gravity: beyond linear approximation
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We present a theory of ghost-free massive gravity where the mass of the graviton is generated through the Brout-Englert-Higgs (BEH) mechanism and one of the four scalar fields used is that of mimetic gravity.

Massive spin-2 scattering and asymptotic superluminality
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We place model-independent constraints on theories of massive spin-2 particles by considering the positivity of the phase shift in eikonal scattering. The phase shift is an asymptotic S-matrix observable, related to the time delay/advance experienced by ...

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Primordial perturbations in our universe are believed to have a quantum origin, and can be described by the wavefunction of the universe (or equivalently, cosmological correlators). It follows that these observables must carry the imprint of the founding

Spin effects in the effective field theory approach to Post-Minkowskian conservative dynamics
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Building upon the worldline effective field theory (EFT) formalism for spinning bodies developed for the Post-Newtonian regime, we generalize the EFT approach to Post-Minkowskian (PM) dynamics to include rotational degrees of freedom in a manifestly ...

Large Quantum Gravity Effects: Unforeseen Limitations of the Classical Theory [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 1996 3-dimensional gravity coupled to Maxwell (or Klein-Gordon) fields is exactly soluble under the assumption of axi-symmetry. The solution is used to probe several quantum gravity issues. In particular, it is shown that the quantum fluctuations in the geometry are large unless the number and frequency of photons satisfy the inequality $\N(\hbar Gω)^2 <&

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Extracellular vesicle (EV) lipidomic profiling of plasma and ascites from patients with high‐grade serous ovarian cancer and of ovarian cancer cell lines reveals enrichment of triglycerides (TGs), diacylglycerols (DGs), phosphatidylcholine (PCs), sphingomyelins (SMs), reflecting tumor metabolic reprogramming.

Causality bounds on scalar-tensor EFTs
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We compute the causality/positivity bounds on the Wilson coefficients of scalar-tensor effective field theories. Two-sided bounds are obtained by extracting IR information from UV physics via dispersion relations of scattering amplitudes, making use of ...
