, 2002 We review the broad status of cosmology and discuss a model of fluctuational cosmology in which the universe is created in a phase transition like phenomenon mimicking inflation, and which further consistently explains latest observations like the ever ...

Remark on approximation in the calculation of the primordial spectrum generated during inflation [PDF]
Phys.Rev. D62 (2000) 087302, 2000 We re-examine approximations in the analytical calculation of the primordial spectrum of cosmological perturbation produced during inflation. Taking two inflation models (chaotic inflation and natural inflation) as examples, we numerically verify the accuracy of these approximations.

Against interpretive exclusivism* Contre l'exclusivisme interprétatif
Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.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.

Cosmological Inflation: Theory and Observations [PDF]
Advanced Science Letters, 2009 In this article we review the theory of cosmological inflation with a particular focus on the beautiful connection it provides between the physics of the very small and observations of the very large. We explain how quantum mechanical fluctuations during the inflationary era become macroscopic density fluctuations which leave distinct imprints in the ...

Axion Cosmology and the Energy Scale of Inflation
, 2010 We survey observational constraints on the parameter space of inflation and axions and map out two allowed windows: the classic window and the inflationary anthropic window.

Gender, Feeling and the Making of Korean Christian Knowledge in Sengoku Japan*
Journal of Religious History, EarlyView.This essay explores the production of Korean Christian knowledge in Sengoku Japan by analysing narratives about a vision said to have been experienced by an evangelised Korean woman, which circulated within Jesuit correspondence from Japan and in subsequent publications.

Catch-me-if-you-can: the overshoot problem and the weak/inflation hierarchy
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We study the overshoot problem in the context of post-inflationary string cosmology (in particular LVS). LVS cosmology features a long kination epoch as the volume modulus rolls down the exponential slope towards the final minimum, with an energy density

Accounting Perspectives, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ways in which accountancy (accounting, accountability, and accountants) has been a device of imperialism, colonialism, and postcolonialism, and therefore has had deleterious effects on Indigenous peoples in former colonies and continues to negatively impact immigrants in postcolonial OECD countries, is under‐researched.

Is the spectrum of gravitational waves the “Holy Grail” of inflation?
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019 It is often said that detecting a spectrum of primordial gravitational waves via observing B-mode polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background is the “Holy Grail” of inflation.

Holographic cosmology solutions of problems with pre-inflationary cosmology
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 In this paper we describe in detail how to solve the problems of pre-inflationary cosmology within the holographic cosmology model of McFadden and Skenderis [1].
