A Re‐Examination of Foundational Elements of Cosmology

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper undertakes a conceptual re‐examination of several foundational elements of cosmology through the lens of spacetime symmetries. A new derivation of the Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker metric is obtained by a careful conceptual examination of rotations and translations on generic manifolds, followed by solving the rotational and ...

Monopoles, Clarified

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT We propose a manifestly duality‐invariant, Lorentz‐invariant, and local action to describe quantum electrodynamics in the presence of magnetic monopoles that derives from Sen's formalism. By employing field strengths as the dynamical variables, rather than potentials, this formalism resolves longstanding ambiguities in prior frameworks.

Quasinormal Modes for Coherent Quantum Black Holes

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Coherent quantum black holes are quantum geometries obtained by means of a mean‐field‐like approach to the gravitational interaction. This procedure attenuates the classical spacetime singularities of general relativity by replacing them with integrable singularities in the quantum‐corrected geometry. After discussing some relevant observables

Toward Large Nonradiating Qubits: When Quantum Engineering Meets Photonics

Advanced Quantum Technologies, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2026.
Nonradiating superconducting qubits suppress radiative losses through photonic‐inspired mechanisms such as anapole states and bound states in the continuum (BICs). This review surveys theoretical foundations and recent implementations of large, wavelength‐scale qubits that confine electromagnetic energy while maintaining coherence.

Effect of Boulder‐Size Distributions on Thermally Derived Rock Abundances on the Moon

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Rock abundance, defined as the surface's fractional area covered by rocks, is used to characterize the Moon's regolith, decipher its impact history, and assess potential landing sites. By definition, it should be agnostic to rock‐size distributions. However, it has been suggested that rock abundances, derived from surface temperatures measured
