New Light Species and the CMB

open access: yes, 2013
We consider the effects of new light species on the Cosmic Microwave Background. In the massless limit, these effects can be parameterized in terms of a single number, the relativistic degrees of freedom.

Do sewn singularities falsify the Palatini cosmology? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We investigate further (cf. arXiv:1512.01199, JCAP01 (2016) 040) Starobinsky cosmological model $R+\gamma R^2$ in the Palatini formalism with Chaplygin gas and baryonic matter as a source. For this aim we use dynamical system theory.

Cosmic abundances of SIMP dark matter

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
Thermal production of light dark matter with sub-GeV scale mass can be attributed to 3 → 2 self-annihilation processes. We consider the thermal average for annihilation cross sections of dark matter at 3 → 2 and general higher-order interactions.

What are the Building Blocks of Our Universe? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We are told that we are living in a Golden Age of Astronomy. Cosmological Parameters are found with un precedented accuracy. Yet, the known form of matter forms only a small fraction of the total energy density of the universe.

The unexpected resurgence of Weyl geometry in late 20-th century physics

open access: yes, 2017
Weyl's original scale geometry of 1918 ("purely infinitesimal geometry") was withdrawn by its author from physical theorizing in the early 1920s. It had a comeback in the last third of the 20th century in different contexts: scalar tensor theories of ...

Gravitino dark matter in brane-world cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The gravitino dark matter hypothesis in the brane cosmology is studied. The theoretical framework is the CMSSM for particle physics and RS II brane model for gravity.

Characteristics of Natural Remanence Records in Fine‐Grained Particles Returned From Asteroid Ryugu

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Particles collected from the asteroid Ryugu by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft offer a unique opportunity to investigate the magnetic record of the primitive solar system, as any terrestrial magnetic contamination is minimal and can be accounted for.

Conformal transformations and Nordstr\"om's scalar theory of gravity

open access: yes, 2010
As we shall briefly recall, Nordstr\"om's theory of gravity is observationally ruled out. It is however an interesting example of non-minimal coupling of matter to gravity and of the role of conformal transformations.

Tracing a Wet Past and Diverse Provenances in Gale Crater, Mars, With Lithium Content Using ChemCam on the Curiosity Rover

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The incompatible behavior of Lithium during magmatic differentiation and high mobility during aqueous alteration make it a valuable tracer of crustal processes on Mars. Its preferential incorporation into secondary phyllosilicates further links Li to clay‐forming environments, which are critical for evaluating past aqueous activity and ...

Relaxion fluctuations (self-stopping relaxion) and overview of relaxion stopping mechanisms

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
In implementations of the electroweak scale cosmological relaxation mechanism proposed so far, the effect of the quantum fluctuations of the homogeneous relaxion field has been ignored.
