The Solution Cosmological Constant Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The cosmological constant problem arises because the magnitude of vacuum energy density predicted by the Quantum Field Theory is about 120 orders of magnitude larger then the value implied by cosmological observations of accelerating

The Well-Tempered Cosmological Constant

open access: yes, 2018
Self tuning is one of the few methods for dynamically cancelling a large cosmological constant and yet giving an accelerating universe. Its drawback is that it tends to screen all sources of energy density, including matter.

Growing Pre‐Service Teachers' Well‐Being Capacity: Comparing the Perspectives of Teacher Education Programme Administrators and Teacher Candidates Across Canada

open access: yesFuture in Educational Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recognising the importance of addressing teacher development in the early career stages, our study examined programmatic considerations within teacher education programmes in Canada to determine the extent to which teacher preparation included support for and promotion of teacher well‐being as part of their pre‐service teaching development ...

The Cosmological Constant

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2001
This is a review of the physics and cosmology of the cosmological constant. Focusing on recent developments, I present a pedagogical overview of cosmology in the presence of a cosmological constant, observational constraints on its magnitude, and the ...

Effective cosmological constant induced by stochastic fluctuations of Newton's constant

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2016
We consider implications of the microscopic dynamics of spacetime for the evolution of cosmological models. We argue that quantum geometry effects may lead to stochastic fluctuations of the gravitational constant, which is thus considered as a ...

Configurational entropy and instability of tachyonic braneworld

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2020
We consider tachyonic braneworld with a bulk cosmological constant and investigate a configurational entropy of various magnitudes of scale factor. It is found that for a bulk negative/zero cosmological constant, the configurational entropy has a global ...

Graviton Mass or Cosmological Constant?

open access: yes, 2003
To describe a massive graviton in 4D Minkowski space-time one introduces a quadratic term in the Lagrangian. This term, however, can lead to a readjustment or instability of the background instead of describing a massive graviton on flat space.

Spiritual Cannibalism in HRD: How Workplace Spirituality Devours Sacred Traditions

open access: yesHuman Resource Development Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper interrogates how the discourse of workplace spirituality in human resource development (HRD) operates as a tool of colonization. Through a systematic review of 48 articles published between 1997 and March 2025, the study uncovers recurring patterns of spiritual appropriation in which non‐Western traditions are detached from their ...

Do cultural taboos regulate hunting in transitioning Indigenous communities? The case of the Idu Mishmi of Northeast India

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract There is rising recognition of resource‐use rights of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs) within wildlife conservation. Historically, sociocultural institutions ensured wildlife sustainability in many IPLC areas. However, the future viability of such institutions is uncertain as IPLCs change in response to external pressures and ...
