Graviton fluctuations erase the cosmological constant

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2017
Graviton fluctuations induce strong non-perturbative infrared renormalization effects for the cosmological constant. The functional renormalization flow drives a positive cosmological constant towards zero, solving the cosmological constant problem ...

Non-minimal coupling influence on the deviation from de Sitter cosmological expansion

open access: yes, 2018
We investigate the models of cosmological inflation in generalized scalar-tensor gravity, which we consider as a source of deviation from de Sitter dynamics in the case of GR.

“Not a Single Leaf Is Meant to be Taken With You”: Conservation Motivations and Belief Systems in a Khasi Sacred Landscape of Meghalaya, India “一片叶子都不许带走”:印度梅加拉亚邦卡西族神圣景观中的保护动机与信仰体系

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, EarlyView.
This study examines the Mawphlang Sacred Forest in Meghalaya as a culturally embedded model of community‐led conservation. Drawing on qualitative fieldwork, it highlights how spiritual reverence, sacred taboos, and ancestral authority shape ecological stewardship, complementing formal governance systems.

Exploring f(Q) gravity through model-independent reconstruction with genetic algorithms

open access: yesPhysics Letters B
In this paper, we use a machine learning technique, specifically genetic algorithms, to reconstruct the functional form of f(Q) gravity in a model-independent manner. To achieve this, we use Hubble measurements derived from cosmic chronometers and radial

Black hole shadow with a cosmological constant for cosmological observers

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019
We investigate the effect of the cosmological constant on the angular size of a black hole shadow. It is known that the accelerated expansion which is created by the cosmological constant changes the angular size of the black hole shadow for static ...

On multidimensional solutions in the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet model with a cosmological term

open access: yes, 2016
A D-dimensional gravitational model with Gauss-Bonnet and cosmological term is considered. When ansatz with diagonal cosmological metrics is adopted, we overview recent solutions for zero cosmological term and find new examples of solutions for non-zero ...

Caste as a Social Kind

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gender and race have received significant philosophical attention recently; they are the paradigm cases of social kinds in most philosophical accounts. I argue for the inclusion of caste as a social kind because it affects the lives of many people, and because it presents itself as an important test case for philosophers of social kinds.

Thermodynamic topology of black holes within Tsallis statistics

open access: yesPhysics Letters B
In this paper, we investigate the thermodynamic topology of black holes within the framework of Tsallis statistics. By integrating Tsallis non-extensive statistics with topological thermodynamics, we analyze the local and global stability of various ...

Brief communication: Precision measurement of the index of refraction of deep glacial ice at radio frequencies at Summit Station, Greenland [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
We report on the measurement of the index of refraction of glacial ice at radio frequencies at Summit Station, Greenland. This measurement is of particular importance for the Radio Neutrino Observatory Greenland, an experiment currently under ...

Quasars: Standard Candles up to z = 7.5 with the Precision of Supernovae Ia

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Currently, the Λ cold dark matter model, which relies on the existence of cold dark matter and a cosmological constant Λ, best describes the universe. However, we lack information in the high-redshift ( z ) region between Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia; up ...
