Initial conditions for hybrid inflation

open access: yes, 2000
In hybrid inflation models, typically only a tiny fraction of possible initial conditions give rise to successful inflation, even if one assumes spatial homogeneity.

Exploring the Formation and Age of Irregular Mare Patches (IMPs) to the Southeast of the Chang'e‐5 Landing Site

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Recently, possible exceptionally young mare volcanic glass beads were discovered in Chang'e‐5 (CE‐5) samples. Isotopic dating suggests an age of approximately 120 Ma, presenting new challenges to existing lunar thermal evolution models. Thus, our research focuses on the source region of Rima Mairan, a branch of Rima Sharp, and its surrounding ...

Clockwork axions in cosmology. Is chromonatural inflation chrononatural?

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
Many cosmological models rely on large couplings of axions to gauge fields. Examples include theories of magnetogenesis, inflation on a steep potential, chiral gravitational waves, and chromonatural inflation. Such theories require a mismatch between the

The cosmological heavy ion collider: Fast thermalization after cosmic inflation

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2020
Heavy-ion colliders have revealed the process of “fast thermalization”. This experimental break-through has led to new theoretical tools to study the thermalization process at both weak and strong coupling.

Intrusion‐Induced Forced Folding Model for the Origin of Séítah Formation Domes on the Jezero Crater Floor, Mars

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The JPL rover Perseverance's investigations of Jezero crater's floor reveal that the ultramafic Séítah formation and the overlying mafic Máaz formation are deformed into a broad, low‐amplitude structural dome. Mastcam‐Z stereo images processed into digital outcrop models, together with RIMFAX ground‐penetrating radar profiles, were used to ...

Axion Black Hole Solution in Non‐Metricity Gravity

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract A static, spherically symmetric black hole solution in symmetric teleparallel (non‐metricity) gravity sourced by an axion field is constructed. Starting from the modified field equations, exact configurations are obtained characterized by the mass M$M$ and an axion–geometry coupling β$\beta$, with temporal metric function A(r)=1−2Mr+βr$A(r)=1-\

The warm inflationary universe

open access: yes, 2008
In the past decade, the importance of dissipation and fluctuation to inflationary dynamics has been realized and has led to a new picture of inflation called warm inflation.

Beyond Inflation: A Cyclic Universe Scenario

open access: yes, 2004
Inflation has been the leading early universe scenario for two decades, and has become an accepted element of the successful `cosmic concordance' model. However, there are many puzzling features of the resulting theory.

Scaling solutions for dilaton quantum gravity

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2017
Scaling solutions for the effective action in dilaton quantum gravity are investigated within the functional renormalization group approach. We find numerical solutions that connect ultraviolet and infrared fixed points as the ratio between scalar field ...
