ABSTRACT Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Its incidence increases significantly with age and has become a major global public health issue. Although research into the mechanisms of AF has spanned over a century‐ranging from the reentry theory to the rotor hypothesis‐none of these

Exploring Weak Gravitational Lensing Effects by a Regular Black Hole
Gravitational lensing is one of the physical consequences of Einstein’s general theory of relativity, which has been observationally confirmed. This work aims to study the weak gravitational lensing scenario where the lens is a spherically symmetric ...

Describing variations of the Fisher-matrix across parameter space
Forecasts in cosmology, both with Monte-Carlo Markov-chain methods and with the Fisher matrix formalism, depend on the choice of the fiducial model because both the signal strength of any observable as well as the model nonlinearities linking observables

On the Electromagnetic Energy Flow Along Geodesics
Abstract We present a field‐theoretic framework for modeling electromagnetic energy propagation in heterogeneous media by introducing the concept of electromagnetic geodesics. Unlike traditional ray optics, which assumes either a straight‐line propagation or a simple bending in refractive media, our approach formulates wave propagation as geodetic ...

Observations of Small‐Scale Heterogeneity in the Upper Mantle Beneath Old Oceanic Lithosphere
Abstract We present tomographic images of the velocity structure of the upper mantle beneath old (∼90 ${\sim} 90$ Ma) oceanic lithosphere, derived from arrival time measurements of teleseismic body waves recorded by ocean‐bottom seismometers. Differential travel time measurements on P, S, and SKS body waves across a wide range of frequency bands show ...

Constraints on Compact Dark Matter from the Nonobservation of Gravitational-wave Strong Lensing
We use the nonobservation of strong lensing of gravitational waves (GWs) in the first three observation runs of the LIGO and Virgo detectors to constrain the fraction of dark matter in the form of compact objects (COs) in the mass range 10 ^6 −10 ^9 M _⊙

Gravitational Effects on the Neutrino Oscillation [PDF]
The propagation of neutrinos in a gravitational field is studied. A method of calculating a covariant quantum-mechanical phase in a curved space-time is presented.

Rethinking Global Soil Degradation: Drivers, Impacts, and Solutions
Abstract The increasing threat of soil degradation presents significant challenges to soil health, especially within agroecosystems that are vital for food security, climate regulation, and economic stability. This growing concern arises from intricate interactions between land use practices and climatic conditions, which, if not addressed, could ...

Strong field limit analysis of gravitational retro-lensing
We present a complete treatment in the strong field limit of gravitational retro-lensing by a static spherically symmetric compact object having a photon sphere.

Staged ecologies: Aesthetics, nature and infrastructure in the late‐modern metropolis
Short Abstract This paper examines the relationship between urban nature and landscape design within a £1.5 billion regeneration project that is currently unfolding in Thamesmead, a town in south‐east London. It develops the notion of ‘staged ecologies’ to examine how urban nature is being spatially and aesthetically arranged across the town's ...
