f(R) theories of gravity in the Palatini approach matched with observations

open access: yesGeneral Relativity and Gravitation, 2006
We investigate the viability of f(R) theories in the framework of the Palatini approach as solutions to the problem of the observed accelerated expansion of the universe. Two physically motivated popular choices for f(R) are considered: power law, f(R) = βR^n, and logarithmic, f(R) = α\ln{R}.

Accelerating cosmology in modified gravity: From convenient F(R) or string-inspired theory to bimetric F(R) gravity [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2014
We consider modified gravity which may describe the early-time inflation and/or late-time cosmic acceleration of the universe. In particular, we discuss the properties of F(R), F(G), string-inspired and scalar-Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravities, including their FRW equations and fluid or scalar-tensor description.

Oppositely Charged Single Enzyme Nanogels Form Versatile Coacervates for Efficient Enzyme Cascade Catalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Oppositely charged single enzyme nanogels (SENs) phase‐separate into bi‐enzymatic coacervate microdroplets, acting as both scaffold and functional units. By tuning SEN ratios, these coacervates create specific microenvironments that enable selective small‐molecule enrichment and efficient intermediate diffusion.

Palatini formulation of the conformally invariant $$f\left( R,L_m\right) $$ f R , L m gravity theory

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2022
We investigate the field equations of the conformally invariant models of gravity with curvature-matter coupling, constructed in Weyl geometry, using the Palatini formalism.

Anisotropy effects on baryogenesis in f(R) theories of gravity [PDF]

open access: yesModern Physics Letters A, 2018
We study the f(R) theory of gravity in an anisotropic metric and its effect on the baryon number-to-entropy ratio. The mechanism of gravitational baryogenesis based on the CPT-violating gravitational interaction between derivative of the Ricci scalar curvature and the baryon-number current is investigated in the context of the f(R) gravity.

High Center‐of‐Mass, Multi‐Legged Soft Robots Powered by Geometrically Encoded Liquid Crystal Elastomer Arc Appendages

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by the octopus and the golden wheel spider, soft robots with liquid crystal elastomer arc fibers as appendages are fabricated to transcend surface constraints through an elevated center of mass and minimal contact footprints. By leveraging curvature‐encoded deformation‐recovery cycles, these robots exhibit contractile, torsional, and flexural ...

A complete cosmological scenario from $$f(R,T^{\phi })$$ f ( R , T ϕ ) gravity theory

open access: yes, 2016
Recent elaborated by Harko et al., the f(R, T) theories of gravity allow one to contemplate an optimistic alternative to dark energy, for which R and T stand for the Ricci scalar and the trace of the energy-momentum tensor, respectively.

PALATINI APPROACH TO MODIFIED GRAVITY: f(R) THEORIES AND BEYOND [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics D, 2011
We review the recent literature on modified theories of gravity in the Palatini approach. After discussing the motivations that lead to consider alternatives to Einstein's theory and to treat the metric and the connection as independent objects, we review several topics that have been recently studied within this framework. In particular, we provide an

A Porous Interfacial Photothermal Layer of Fused Core–Shell Carbon‐Polymer Nanospheres for Directional Salt Crystallization and Zero‐Liquid‐Discharge

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A hierarchical hydrogel evaporator with a thin, porous photothermal layer of fused core–shell carbon‐polymer nanospheres enables ultrafast interfacial solar evaporation with minimized heat loss and sufficient water supply. Directional advection‐dominated brine transport, coupled with Marangoni‐driven interfacial flow, drives salt away from the active ...
