Perturbation effect of stellar spots on light curves of gravitational microlensing [PDF]
One of the advantages of observations of gravitational microlensing is stellar spots detection. Our aim in this paper is to study and characterize the perturbations due to stellar spots on the microlensing light curves.

Gravitational lensing and tunneling of mechanical waves in synthetic curved spacetime
Black holes are considered among the most fascinating objects that exist in our universe since in the classical formalism nothing, not even light, can escape from their vicinity due to gravity.

Discriminating power of milli-lensing observations for dark matter models [PDF]
The nature of dark matter (DM) is still under intense debate. Sub-galactic scales are particularly critical, as different, currently viable DM models make diverse predictions on the expected abundance and density profile of DM haloes on these scales.

Abstract The momentum and Hamiltonian constraints of vacuum Einstein equations, within the Bowen‐York formalism, for two interacting black holes in close separation, with anti‐parallel spins and anti‐parallel linear momenta is studied. An analytical solution using perturbation theory is given.

Combined with the polarization state of light, orbital angular momentum (OAM) can be utilized as a degree of freedom to selectively excite the desired multipoles in nanoparticles. Different scattering characteristics of the excited modes result in interesting features in the imparted optical forces which is of importance in various applications ...

Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Materials
Artificial intelligence in general and machine learning in particular are gaining ever more importance in science and technology. In materials science, they are taking over tedious screening tasks and helping design and discover materials based on both explicit and tacit previous knowledge possessed by the scientist.

Abstract Giant volcanic eruptions have the potential to overturn civilizations. Yet, the driving mechanism and timescale over which batholithic magma reservoirs transition from non‐eruptible crystal mush to mobile melt‐dominated stages and our capacity to detect a pending super‐eruption remain obscure.

IS THERE A DISTINCTIVE QUANTUM THEOLOGY?
Abstract Quantum mechanics (QM) is a favorite area of physics to feature in “science and religion” discussions. We argue that this is at least partly because the arcane results of QM can be deployed to make big theological claims by the linguistic sleight of hand of “register switching”—sliding imperceptibly from technical into everyday language using ...

We investigate the possible existence of graviballs, a system of bound gravitons, and show that two gravitons can be bound together by their gravitational interaction.

Abstract Stratospheric injections of carbonaceous aerosols and combustion gases by extreme wildfires have become increasingly common. Recent “megafires,” particularly large and intense fires, delivered particulate burdens to the lower stratosphere comparable to those of moderate volcanic eruptions.
