Particle pair creation by inflation of quantum vacuum fluctuations in an ion trap
The creation of matter and structure in our universe is currently described by an intricate interplay of quantum field theory and general relativity.

The message is that physics has an „outward bound” of scientific inquiry in the field of cosmology. I present it in the historical development. Physics and astronomy, developing since the seventeenth century, inherited from the early Greek philosophers ...

Universal Constants, Standard Models and Fundamental Metrology
Taking into account four universal constants, namely the Planck's constant $h$, the velocity of light $c$, the constant of gravitation $G$ and the Boltzmann's constant $k$ leads to structuring theoretical physics in terms of three theories each taking ...

Unitary evolution and cosmic acceleration in Loop Quantum Cosmology
Loop quantum cosmology was shown to interpolate between de Sitter and FLRW Universe phases through a bounce by including Euclidean and Lorentzian terms of the Hamiltonian constraint with weight one -that corresponding to classical General Relativity ...

Relational Motivation for Conformal Operator Ordering in Quantum Cosmology
Operator-ordering in quantum cosmology is a major as-yet unsettled ambiguity with not only formal but also physical consequences. We determine the Lagrangian origin of the conformal invariance that underlies the conformal operator-ordering choice in ...

Non-singular bounce scenarios in loop quantum cosmology and the effective field description
A non-singular bouncing cosmology is generically obtained in loop quantum cosmology due to non-perturbative quantum gravity effects. A similar picture can be achieved in standard general relativity in the presence of a scalar field with a non-standard ...
