Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.Abstract We analyze large‐scale shear zones that are exposed along the equatorial chasmata of Eastern Aphrodite Terra to understand the role of strain localization in the deformation of the Venusian crust. These shear zones dip at low angles opposite to the slopes, forming terraces that expose portions of the shear planes.

Dynamical dark energy in 0’B braneworlds
European Physical Journal C: Particles and FieldsWe build a novel realization of dark bubble cosmology in non-supersymmetric string theory. Among the simplest models in ten dimensions, the type 0’B orientifold is the unique option which yields a scale-separated construction.

Cosmology: The test of inflation [PDF]
Nature, 2009 As the launch of the Planck spacecraft approaches, Eric Hand investigates what the mission could mean for the predominant theory of the moments after the Big Bang.

Against interpretive exclusivism* Contre l'exclusivisme interprétatif
Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 31, Issue 3, Page 645-662, September 2025.Interpretive exclusivism is the dogma that we can only understand cultural systems by interpreting them, thereby ruling out causal explanations of cultural phenomena using scientific methods, for example based on measurement, comparison, and experiment.

Brane inflation: A field theory approach in background supergravity
, 2012 We propose a model of inflation in the framework of brane cosmology driven by background supergravity. Starting from bulk supergravity we construct the inflaton potential on the brane and employ it to investigate for the consequences to inflationary ...

Entropy, 2012 We develop the general reconstruction scheme in two scalar model. The quintom-like theory which may describe (different) non-singular Little Rip or de Sitter cosmology is reconstructed.

, 2012 The very basics of cosmological inflation are discussed. We derive the equations of motion for the inflaton field, introduce the slow-roll parameters, and present the computation of the inflationary perturbations and their connection to the temperature fluctuations of the cosmic microwave background.

Two Micron‐Size Dark Dimensions
Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 8, August 2025.Abstract Two extra dimensions of micron scale might simultaneously address the gauge and cosmological hierarchy problems. In this paper various observational bounds in scenarios with one and two large extra dimensions are examined, to see if they are compatible with the micron scale.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 8, August 2025.Abstract Volcanic materials exert both downward and upward forces on a planet's lithosphere, depending on where they are emplaced. On Mars, numerous studies have used gravity and topography data to ascertain the contribution of each of these styles of emplacement to measured fields.

Inflation from Extra Dimensions
, 1994 A gravity-driven inflation is shown to arise from a simple higher dimensional universe. In vacuum, the shear of $n>1$ contracting dimensions is able to inflate the remaining three spatial dimensions.
