METAPHYSICS AND EPISTEMOLOGY IN STEPHEN HAWKING'S THEORY OF THE CREATION OF THE UNIVERSE

open access: yesZygon, 1996
. In 1981 S. W. Hawking and J. Hartle presented a quantum mechanical description of the early stages of possible cosmological evolution. Their proposal was interpreted by many authors as a pattern of cosmic creation from nothing in which no divine ...

Dynamical Analysis of Scalar Field Cosmologies with Spatial Curvature

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2016
We explore the dynamical behaviour of cosmological models involving a scalar field (with an exponential potential and a canonical kinetic term) and a matter fluid with spatial curvature included in the equations of motion.

The absence of women's scientific contributions in core UK pre‐university science qualifications

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite their groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of the natural world and the universe, women's roles in biology, chemistry, physics, astronomy, environmental science and geology remain largely absent from standard educational specifications in the United Kingdom (UK), particularly at Key Stage 4 (KS4) and Key Stage 5 (KS5), or ...

Inferring Cosmological Parameters with Evidential Physics-Informed Neural Networks

open access: yesUniverse
We examine the use of a novel variant of Physics-Informed Neural Networks to predict cosmological parameters from recent supernovae and baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) datasets. Our machine learning framework generates uncertainty estimates for target

Non-singular pre-big bang scenarios from all-order α′ corrections

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We reformulate in Hamiltonian language the recent proposal by Hohm and Zwiebach of an action yielding the most general O(d, d)-symmetric string cosmology equations, at tree-level in the string-loop expansion, but to all orders in the α′ expansion.

The matrilineal Turn: Wiradjuri matrilineal leadership, colonial disruption, and the work of cultural return

open access: yesFeminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article advances three claims regarding the matrilineal organization of Wiradjuri society in central New South Wales. Drawing on the late nineteenth and early twentieth century ethnographic record, it demonstrates that Wiradjuri descent, totem, moiety identity, and ceremonial authority were and are matrilineally organized, despite ...

w=−1 as an Attractor

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2016
It has recently been shown, in flat Robertson-Walker geometries, that the dynamics of gravitational actions which are minimally coupled to matter fields leads to the appearance of “attractors” - sets of physical observables on which phase space measures ...

Remembrance of things past

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
Nonlinear sigma models on de Sitter background have proved a useful prototype for quantum gravity in summing the large logarithms which arise from loop corrections.
