Particle Physics and Inflationary Cosmology [PDF]
Physics Today, 1987 With the invention of unified theories of strong, weak, electromagnetic and gravitational interactions, elementaryparticle physics has entered a very interesting and unusual stage of its development. The end of the 1960s saw the introduction of the Glashow-Weinberg-Salam unification of the weak and electromagnetic interactions.

High‐Latitude Zonal Jets in the Martian Upper Atmosphere Driven by Non‐Orographic Gravity Waves
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract We investigate thermosphere responses to non‐orographic gravity waves (GWs) using wind measurements from the Neutral Gas and Ion Mass Spectrometer onboard the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN mission, alongside simulations from the Mars Planetary Climate Model. We focus on zonal jets in high‐latitude regions of the upper atmosphere.

AMPERE Observations of the Asymmetry Toward Stronger Birkeland Currents in the Northern Hemisphere
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract We quantify the asymmetry between the Birkeland currents (also known as field‐aligned currents) in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. We use data from the Active Magnetosphere and Planetary Electrodynamics Response Experiment (AMPERE) in 2010–2024 inclusive for both hemispheres, compute the observed asymmetry, and then subtract the modeled

A Possible Solution to the Mystery of the ANITA Anomalous Events
Annalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 4, April 2026.In 2006 and 2014, the Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna (ANITA), a balloon‐borne radio observatory flying over Antarctica, detected two strange upward‐going radio pulse events that have not yet been explained by our current understanding of physics.

Physics Letters B, 2019 Combining intervals of ekpyrotic (ultra-slow) contraction with a (non-singular) classical bounce naturally leads to a novel cyclic theory of the universe in which the Hubble parameter, energy density and temperature oscillate periodically, but the scale ...

Looking beyond inflationary cosmology [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Physics, 2006 In spite of the phenomenological successes of the inflationary universe scenario, the current realizations of inflation making use of scalar fields lead to serious conceptual problems that are reviewed in this lecture. String theory may provide an avenue towards addressing these problems.

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract String theory has strong implications for cosmology, implying the absence of a cosmological constant, ruling out single‐field slow‐roll inflation, and that black holes decay. The origins of these statements are elucidated within the string‐theoretical swampland programme.

Viable inflationary evolution from Einstein frame loop quantum cosmology [PDF]
, 2018 In this work we construct a bottom-up reconstruction technique for loop quantum cosmology scalar-tensor theories, from the observational indices. Particularly, the reconstruction technique is based on fixing the functional form of the scalar-to-tensor ...

Inflation after COBE: Lectures on inflationary cosmology [PDF]
, 1992 In these lectures I review the standard hot big-bang cosmology, emphasizing its successes, its shortcomings, and its major challenge-a detailed understanding of the formation of structure in the Universe.
