Cosmological models with a Hybrid Scale Factor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
In this brief review, we present some cosmological models with a Hybrid Scale Factor (HSF) in the framework of general relativity (GR). The hybrid scale factor fosters an early deceleration as well as a late time acceleration and mimics the present ...

Stability of Einstein-Aether Cosmological Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We use a dynamical systems analysis to investigate the future behaviour of Einstein-Aether cosmological models with a scalar field coupling to the expansion of the aether and a non-interacting perfect fluid. The stability of the equilibrium solutions are

Programmable Sequential 4D Actuation in Multistable Kirigami Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a modular kirigami metamaterial framework enabling programmable multistability and sequential 4D actuation. By coupling geometry‐controlled multistability with material‐dependent recovery kinetics, spatiotemporal deformation can be precisely programmed.

Jordan frame in supergravity and cosmology

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
The superconformal action can be gauge-fixed in a gauge where it leads to the Einstein frame supergravity defined by a Kähler potential K z z ¯ $$ \mathcal{K}\left(z,\overline{z}\right) $$ , or in a gauge where it leads to a Jordan frame supergravity ...

Polynomial Affine Model of Gravity: After 10 Years

open access: yesUniverse
The polynomial affine model of gravity was proposed as an alternative to metric and metric-affine gravitational models. What, in the beginning, was thought to be a source of unpredictability—the presence of many terms in the action—turned out to be a ...

The morphology of the oval window in Paranthropus robustus compared to humans and other modern primates

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.

The BINGO/ABDUS Project: Forecast for Cosmological Parameters from a Mock Fast Radio Burst Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
There are various surveys that will provide excellent data to search for and localize fast radio bursts (FRBs). The BINGO project will be one such survey, and this collaboration has already estimated an FRB detection rate that the project will yield.

A Critique of Cosmological Natural Selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Mathematical physicist Lee Smolin has proposed a theory of Cosmological natural selection which, he argues, explains the existence of our life-supporting universe, and which, he claims, is superior to Anthropic Principle explanations.

Direct SMBH Formation Driven by Runaway Stellar Collisions in Globally Unstable Stellar Systems

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The fueling problem addresses the ultimate fate of the reservoirs of gas and stars driven into the deepest gravitational potential wells of galaxies, thus it may contain the Universe's densest concentrations of gas and stars. This raises a key question: does the infalling material collapse directly into a supermassive black hole, or can it ...

Cosmological Implications of the Extended Uncertainty Principle: Energy Conditions, Stability, and Late-time Acceleration

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study the cosmological consequences of the extended uncertainty principle (EUP) by deriving modified Friedmann equations through thermodynamic arguments.
