Biblioranking fundamental physics [PDF]
Journal of Informetrics, 2019 We propose measures of the impact of research that improve on existing ones such as counting of number of papers, citations and $h$-index. Since different papers and different fields have largely different average number of co-authors and of references we replace citations with individual citations, shared among co-authors. Next, we improve on citation

COSMOLOGICAL TERM AND FUNDAMENTAL PHYSICS [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2004 A nonvanishing cosmological term in Einstein's equations implies a nonvanishing spacetime curvature even in the absence of any kind of matter. It would, in consequence, affect many of the underlying kinematic tenets of physical theory. The usual commutative spacetime translations of the Poincaré group would be replaced by the mixed conformal ...

A new technique for quick identification of defective region inside γ-ray detector [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 The γ-ray detection efficiency of a detector decreases over time due to factors like radiation damage or an increase in the thickness of the inactive dead layer.

Cosmological phase transition of spontaneous confinement
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 The dynamics of a cosmological (de)confinement phase transition is studied in nearly conformally invariant field theories, where confinement is predominantly spontaneously generated and associated with a light “dilaton” field.

Time in fundamental physics [PDF]
Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part B: Studies in History and Philosophy of Modern Physics, 2015 The first three sections of this article contain a broad brush summary of the profound changes in the notion of time in fundamental physics that were brought about by three revolutions: the foundations of mechanics distilled by Newton in his Principia, the discovery of special relativity by Einstein and its reformulation by Minkowski, and, finally, the

Aerospace, 2017 A dedicated mission in low Earth orbit is proposed to test predictions of gravitational interaction theories and to directly measure the atmospheric density in a relevant altitude range, as well as to provide a metrological platform able to tie different

Classifying and constraining local four photon and four graviton S-matrices
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 We study the space of all kinematically allowed four photon and four graviton S-matrices, polynomial in scattering momenta. We demonstrate that this space is the permutation invariant sector of a module over the ring of polynomials of the Mandelstam ...

Classification of all 3 particle S-matrices quadratic in photons or gravitons
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 We explicitly construct every kinematically allowed three particle graviton- graviton-P and photon-photon-P S-matrix in every dimension and for every choice of the little group representation of the massive particle P.
