Linking Density and Nanoscale Crystallinity to Hydration in Nafion PEMFC Membranes: Insights From Experiment and Molecular Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Molecular dynamics and experimental analysis show that higher crystallinity in Nafion enhances molecular packing, thereby increasing effective density. A proposed model bridges experimental and molecular‐scale observations by quantitatively linking water uptake to density variations, offering a predictive framework for optimising hydration and ...

de Sitter vacua from nonperturbative flux compactifications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this work we present stable de Sitter solutions of =1 supergravity in a geometric type IIB duality frame with the addition of non-perturbative contributions.

The DNA of Calabi–Yau Hypersurfaces

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Genetic Algorithms are implemented for triangulations of four‐dimensional reflexive polytopes, which induce Calabi–Yau threefold hypersurfaces via Batyrev's construction. These algorithms are shown to efficiently optimize physical observables such as axion decay constants or axion–photon couplings in string theory compactifications.

TRAPPED QUINTESSENTIAL INFLATION FROM FLUX COMPACTIFICATIONS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Identification of Dark Matter, 2007
Quintessential inflation is studied using a string modulus as the inflaton - quintessence field. It is assumed that the modulus crosses an enhanced symmetry point (ESP) in field space. Particle production at the ESP temporarily traps the modulus resulting in a period of inflation.

A Barren Landscape?

open access: yes, 2004
We consider the generation of a non-perturbative superpotential in F-theory compactifications with flux. We derive a necessary condition for the generation of such a superpotential in F-theory.

FTheoryTools: Advancing Computational Capabilities for F‐Theory Research

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract A primary goal of string phenomenology is to identify realistic four‐dimensional physics within the landscape of string theory solutions. In F‐theory, such solutions are encoded in the geometry of singular elliptic fibrations, whose study often requires particularly challenging and cumbersome computations.

Fluxes, vacua, and tadpoles meet Landau-Ginzburg and Fermat

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
Type IIB flux vacua based on Landau-Ginzburg models without Kähler deformations provide fully-controlled insights into the non-geometric and strongly-coupled string landscape.

DWSB for heterotic flux compactifications

open access: yes, 2011
We investigate the construction of non-supersymmetric vacua in compactifications of heterotic string theory with intrinsic torsion and background fluxes. We do this by using the technique of domain-wall supersymmetry breaking (DWSB) that was developed in
